Nothing surprising here but it is somewhat notable that the DNC response to activists whipping up enthusiasm and engagement among younger voters is to change the bylaws in order to stop them. Real pieces of shit, they are. Proven time and time again.

They could not possibly care less. They have awesome jobs, gold standard publicly funded healthcare, access to insider trading information, and they’re about to get a sweet tax cut. If they get fired, they’ll just turn coat and become lobbyists.

The rot has reached the core, ladies and gentlemen.

I don’t know about that. Christians, particularly the Catholic Church have a long history persecution. The Albigensian Crusade was against European Christian “Cathars”. When the Crusade to the “Holy Land” kicked off, the first thing they did was march through Germany murdering Jews. The Inquisition, the slaughter and enslavement of American natives, those were all Europeans.

The idea is they take turns talking shit about the party they are ostensibly aligned with, I.e Kyle vs Dems, Dave vs Republicans, and then, I don’t know, score it by how bad they “roast ‘em”…Admittedly the idea kind of falls apart from there…Like, who else is really legitimately in that lane on the “right”?
