  • Don't forget the 153 Democrats that joined with those Republicans to pass the bill. It was almost 50/50 support

  • I've been using hairspray for years too. I don't get how people prefer chunky glue sticks or $80 "specialized" bed adhesion fluid over a nice uniform spray from an $8 bottle of Suave unscented.

  • Ken Martin was the best choice of the short list for chair of the DNC.

    Sounds like a roundabout way of calling him the "lesser evil." Sounds like the same old party to me.

  • How arrogant to claim that i only know of things written in headlines and posted to Lemmy, while completely failing to elaborate on even a single point mentioned. Please enlighten us with actual examples of this "new" DNC in action.

  • Can you explain how that makes you believe him? I recall the same thing as someone who is also highly critical of the DNC after what they've done this past decade and I have yet to see anything signaling change from them that would warrant even the smallest belief in what they say.

    They recently blocked the release of the "autopsy report" of the 2024 election:

    Despite a pledge from DNC Chair Ken Martin to release the post-election report, the committee announced Thursday it would not share it publicly.

    The DNC wanted to avoid another public debate over how the party lost the White House to Donald Trump, and instead, turn its focus on its recent successes (such as?), according to this official.

    “In our conversations with stakeholders from across the Democratic ecosystem, we are aligned on what’s important, and that’s learning from the past and winning the future,” Martin continued. “Here’s our North Star: does this help us win? If the answer is no, it’s a distraction from the core mission.”

    So apparently Martin was either lying or isn't wielding unchecked power like that person claims. Furthermore, Martin is stating that the party only cares about winning and anything that doesnt help them win is simply a "distraction." This means if the DNC feels its more popular to have ICE round up and throw immigrants into concentration camps, they'll do it. If they think more tax cuts for the 1% is popular, they'll do it. They're abandoning all pretenses of ideology in favor of populism. They're not interested in solving problems, but rather winning by telling people what they want to hear. These are their real statements and actions. That user is trying to sell you a bill of goods of more future promises with nothing to back it up.

    To me this just reinforces my view of them being little more than patsies and controlled opposition for the Republican party. They only exist to legitimize a completely broken one-party system of the ruling elite while we're treated as little more than cattle.

  • The proof is in the pudding and we haven't seen a damned thing change with the DNC since he took over. Your claims are the same box full of false future promises we've seen from the DNC for decades.

  • Why the EU is ready to drop high tariffs on China-made EVs: Europe’s shift toward cooperation over protectionism on Chinese EVs is more political than business-driven.

    Jump

  • Until car companies have slave labor, control of the world's rare earth minerals, and a bottomless pit of money comparable to the Chinese government for both R&D and consumer subsidies, that's completely impossible.

    China isn't doing this for altruistic reasons, they're leveraging their position to put every other automaker in the world out of business. They're cozying up to China currently because the US is being run by a lunatic and they need powerful allies.

  • Person shot by federal law enforcement officer in Minneapolis after resisting arrest and ‘violent assault,’ DHS says | CNN

  • Apparently there was a video posted and 911 call made in the same part of Minneapolis at the same time stating that people had been chasing her husband and ramming him with their car and that they shot him through the front door of his house as he ran inside to his wife and children.

  • 10k Yen lodging tax is only for rooms that cost more than $630 per person per night. For rooms that cost less than $130 per person per night, the tax is only 200 Yen or $1.26 with a couple tiers in between but it isn't 'expensive' until you're paying at least $300 pp/pn for your lodging.

    Fuck them for mocking actual useful features and freedom of choice while simping for stupid shit like AI and enshittified tech from all the usual suspects.

  • MAGA may crumble but the issues that created it will still fester and lead to something similar until the people actually get some representation in government.

    I've read this exact same prediction after Bush left office and the same after Trump left the first time and here we are again. People always allow themselves to be roped back into believing Republican false promises after four or eight years of hearing the same false promises from Democrats. Neither party is going anywhere until we make new parties comprised of people actually willing to govern for the people, but both Democrats and Republicans want you to belive that they are your only option.
