Two far-right groups, Right for Bucks & Audit the Vote, collaborated in an endeavor to recruit individuals to file petitions in Bucks. The Bucks County Board of Elections said this is delaying the certification of votes locally.

I think if you petition this shit with zero proof for any logical reason, you should lose your citizenship.
There are times when it's needed, and it's should be done, but this is clearly only done to delay the results that everyone knows will not change.

I mean it's weird. Kris Letang suffered a stroke but did Pennsylvania vote him for senator? No. Doctors said he should be focused on recovering before worrying an out playing hockey

Just because Trump told you there was cheating doesn’t mean there was. Republicans are playing their supporters like fiddles. Only the most gullible believe the stolen election bullshit. Problem is, there are far too many gullible people.

Republican-appointed judges, Republican-controlled legislatures in WI, PA. MI, and AZ, 61 cases of election fraud presented, 61 losses.

If your point is that the entire political system is corrupt then, sure, it always has been. It is everywhere in the world at every level. So what's new? If your point is Republicans are paragons of virtue and evil Democrats stole the 2020 presidential election from the Republican god trump I don't know what to tell you except you're brainwashed out of your mind. trump is as reviled internationally as is Putin and to refuse to believe the majority of your fellow citizens chose to vote for the other guy is reality denial.

There is a filing fee, which is easily split amongst the three filers for each court petition. But the filers are likely financed by another person or an entity. Champerty, anyone?

They would fuck themselves blind to own the Libs. They are poisoned. Decades of Rush and AM hate radio and nonstop Fox propaganda. Trump spoke and they bought the entire boatload of hate and deceit. Think of what would be great for Putin. Sounds a lot like the Republican Party platform. If Biden lost, Ukraine would be toast.

I’m not bitter.

What did Biden do to raise gas prices? Or grocery prices?

Just apply logic here: Biden’s approval rating was below 50%….why would he do something that would be unpopular to further hurt his approval rating?

RipTide275 t1_iyki4oq wrote

Because he’s a fucking moron. When you create more regulations in businesses that increases costs which gets passed to consumers. Also govt spending is inflationary, so sending billions of taxpayer dollars overseas along with other massive spending causes inflation. That’s your Econ lesson for today kid. Get lost now

So corporate greed has nothing to do with it?

Early November of 2010, a barrel of oil was roughly $86/barrel and gas was around $3/gallon.

Early November 2022, a barrel of oil was roughly $85/barrel and gas is close to $4/gallon.

There’s your Econ lesson for the day which renders your talking point useless. Get fucked, boomer

The amount sent to Ukraine is nothing compared to PPP and the stimulus checks which (expect one stimulus check) happened under Trump. The guy who promised to eliminate the federal debt and ended up adding significantly to it.

You don’t know fuck all about economics, just what talking head economics have to say. Here’s a hint - those talking heads want your money and will lie to you in order to get it.

When I see a spade, I call it a spade. When I see a shit take, I call it a shit take. I’m not starting a fight by telling you that your comparison is absolutely meaningless and has no merit. I’m simply expressing that the comparison you made has no logic whatsoever to it.

I live in Bucks. How the hell did RINO-ish GOP Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick win handily in both 2020 and 2022, while Trump and Trumpists lost bigly on the very same ballots to Dems? Could it be that a solid majority of Bucks voters are fucking done with the sick cult of MAGA and their election-denying bullshit?

Is a middle aged or elderly mother who has a hysterectomy (about 35-40% have them unfortunately) a woman? Does a woman have to have ovaries and a uterus? What do you consider women who have hysterectomies?

First you didn’t ask me the question.

Second it’s not that simple especially in the context it was originally asked.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and assume you hasn’t watched the hearing and didn’t listen to why that question was in bad faith.

Plenty of women are born infertile with no potential to create offspring in the future. Are they still women? And what about the additional hundreds of thousands of babies who are born each year in the US with extra sex chromosomes? There ya go. Not that hard. They’re women if they identify that way.

Why would you or anyone care how someone identifies? To quote George Thurgood (yep, I’m old), “It don’t confron’ me (long as I get my money next Friday).”

How would you describe a true friend? Is it someone who will give you the tough truth - even if they know it will hurt you slightly in the moment - for the greater good in the longterm? Or is a true friend someone who just says "YES HONEY YOU DO YOU!" every time they ask you a question?

Anyway, for whatever 0.0000003% thing you want to throw at me like some kind of got ya moment - let's just stick to the Chromosomes then.

They should have to pay every dime its costing for this. whoever signs the request for recount should be financially responsible and they should be audited to ensure it is not being paid for by anyone affiliated with a campaign or political party.

On the bright side, each time they pull this bullshit a bunch of independents say fuck voting for a Republican.

You’re privy to “the truth”? And the rest of us aren’t? Well, aren’t you special.

Have a little humility and stop trying to control other people. Meanwhile, you’ll lose this argument because most people don’t have your control needs.

Surgically transitioning before age 18 is a separate issue with admitted potential to do harm. And it’s exceptionally rare. No, you feel entitled to control other people’s choices and identities.

“Leftist,” huh? Lol. Nope. A civil libertarian. Remember that?

What exactly is the “one hell of a fight” going to be about? Again, lol.

I feel like puberty shapes a lot of what we will become and isn't an enemy of humans.

"one hell of a fight" = simple information warfare, engaging in debate.

I don't care what grown adults do to their bodies as long as it's legal. I do care about protecting innocent, children, sure. sue me.

No worries!

We (Americans) should convene a national town hall. It would be wild here and there, but I’d say overall we could get a lot done on things like immigration, abortion, LGBTQ rights and so on. Most people are decent, sensible and reasonable, even if many are prone to believing conspiracy theories regarding “stolen elections” and the like.
