I so badly need Beto to beat Ted but I just don’t see it happening. Today is going to kill me.

I saw your comment, went “really?” and then looked it up and whaddya know, you’re right. There are only 14 Angels and Jenner ain’t one of em.

I live in the Bay Area and the commercials for “No on Prop 10" are EVERYWHERE all the time. Youtube, FB, TV, Hulu...same for the anti-prop 8 people (limits revenue for dialysis centers like DaVita). I have seen maybe 3 pro-prop-10 commercials and this really concerns me. I don’t think enough people affected by high…

You do not need to be white to support white supremacist ideology. Also, being Latino doesn’t mean you aren’t white, it’s not a race. Latin America was colonized by Europeans, it’s absolutely crawling with white supremacists.

Or it would have given the right more time to harass and intimidate Dr. Ford and other women who came forward, and Susan Collins would’ve spouted some bullshit about “dark money” and would’ve still voted for Kavanaugh.

I am SO tired of people saying she should have exposed Dr. Ford earlier as if that somehow would have made a difference with the trash Republicans in power. JFC, what reality are all of these people living in?

Fuck this bitch. Alright, who wants to run against her 2020 so I can start throwing my hard-earned money at your campaign?

Do you really think the ACA will remain intact with a Justice Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court? Not a rhetorical question, I’m genuinely wondering why you think that.

Yeah, I guess. It seems kind of pointless to be putting resources and effort behind someone who isn’t willing to do the right thing when it really counts just so he has a better chance of being re-elected. If Kavanaugh gets confirmed, the SCOTUS is going to be shitty for decades, whether there’s a democratic majority…

But then are we supposed to be okay with him confirming a justice that will be catastrophic for women, people of color, and the poor for generations because next time around there will maybe be dem majority and then we won’t have to worry about him voting crappily? That just doesn’t seem right.

In the past, I’ve seen people argue that it’s better to have Joe Manchin in office than a republican b/c he votes with democrats “some of the time” as opposed to a republican who would never vote with them. But if he’s not voting with democrats on this issue, arguably one of the most important votes of his career, how…

True and that makes him seem whinier.

“I’m sorry I screamed but everyone’s being so unfair to me!”

When was the last time the US had an emergency that required a national emergency broadcast? You’ve been in an emergency like that? I’ve lived in wildfire, earthquake, and tsunami country and I got alerts from the local tsunami warning centers, weather service, etc. I don’t doubt emergency messaging is important, I…

I mentioned FEMA twice in my original post, I know who sends it. My question was “when would a national message be necessary”. Also, at time of “extreme emergency when other avenues of reaching the people of the US are unavailable or unreliable” you think the best way to reach people will be by text message? Okay.

Maybe. But then is that even something FEMA would handle?

Real question, what is the actual purpose of this? Don’t local agencies handle weather and disaster alerts? Is the actual use that FEMA would just target specific geographic locations in case of a disaster? When would we need a national alert from FEMA? Is somebody anticipating some kind of a national disaster caused…

Gov. Brown also signed our net neutrality bill into law on Sunday! And then the federal government immediately sued the state of California again...

That’s insane and the worst part is that I’m not sure it would be handled differently today.

That’s really vile.
