Entropy has overwhelmed them.

Soon they will turn against each other. Some may lose their minds. Politics and media will become increasingly bizarre, as the matrix starts popping gaskets and blowing O rings.

I never expected this to happen so quickly. So which side are moderates and righties suppose to take here? For me it's the one that restricts spending, unlimited QE, debt monetization, handing out money like candy, and collapsing all the bubbles. Maybe the one that bans ownership of real estate by entities with more than $50M in assets, and foreigners. I know, free market... well we can't have large highly liquid entities like Blackrock buying up all the real estate in the world.
One might say, the contradictions are accelerating - too fast

Yea... But we still got 3 more years of this freak show and now they will definitely NOT fix the current issues (Supply chain, Inflation etc) because the babies didn't get their way. I dont mind dems but we need moderate ones running this place. Not those whatever they hell they got in there now. LOL

I think they go third party in 2022, with a promise of an AOC type as Presidential candidate in 2024 and completely not care about vote splitting.

Dems will twist arms behind the scenes.. they play extra dirty. There is nothing they will not do to get what they want.. they showed us in the 2020 election changing rules to cheat and of course the crooked lying media backed them on day one..

House passed highway funding extension so they know the infrastructure deal is not happening tonight. Turns out they COULD do it without infrastructure.

I just caught the tail end of it, but it wasn't really a "press conference". A more apt term is "presidential briefing" because, even though there were members of the press there, they once again didn't get to ask questions. Brandon just turned and walked away.

There is NO WAY MANCHIN will give an inch more than he did to get the 1.75T framework, the progressives played their hand to the maximum possible and were not smart enough to take it.

Now there is NO DEAL to push McAuliffe in the Virginia governor's election on Tuesday and the Democrat party is now in full civil war. They will not get anything done, no welfare bill, no infrastruture bill, no nothing heading into an election year in 2022.

The progressives are done, they are finished. They will NEVER come close again to this much power. All downhill from here

RIP and good riddance


Dems punt House infrastructure vote in blow to Biden agenda
The left is frustrated over pared-back social spending. Speaker Nancy Pelosi wanted to show momentum on Thursday

I would conjecture that you are being prematurely overoptimistic. Evil is not stamped out that easily.

Of course not, it's going to be a slow hellish path back to normalcy, or at worst normalcy in a balkanized United States. I am merely pointing out that this is the beginning of the end for their movement

Perhaps, but the damage is done. They have nothing to help McAuliffe on Tuesday and as soon as the progressives bend the knee to Pelosi they lose everything because their base is an intransigent twitter mob that were promised the moon and the sky and they are going to be despondent. It will be glorious, Manchin & Sinema better hire more body guards because the leftist nutcases will be out for them.

What a wonderful feel great thread. Thanks for posting.

Dems are failing at everything. No one wants what they offer. They need to leave our country alone.
