    Well, well, well, if it isn’t the consequences of replacing competent career government officials with stooges.

      Well, that and the murder-friendly administration publicly announcing that you’re going to pursue the death penalty hard probably makes it a whole lot less likely people are gonna try a plea

      Conservative Justification: You have to be patient, and give the process time to gain momentum. If you need to accelerate the process, then more conservative policies need to be implemented, more harshly.

      I’ve been hearing that for literally 40 years. Shouldn’t those policies have kicked in by now?

      Oh, right, they did.

        100%? That’s a lot for a world with Bernie, AoC, and Zohran Mamdani in it.

          Those people are the periphery of the Democratic Party, and deliberately held in that place by the rest of the party. When people say “The Democrats” they mean the people with actual power in the party, like Pelosi, Schumer, Harris, etc.

          Maybe theyre not all in, vut they did condemn luigi. They lack a backbone just like the rest of the democrat party. Theyd rather just kinda hope things get better rather than making it happen.
