Today the U.S. House of Representatives passed the TAKE IT DOWN Act, giving the powerful a dangerous new route to manipulate platforms into removing lawful speech that they simply don’t like. President Trump himself has said that he would use the law to censor his critics. The bill passed the Senate in February, and it now heads to the president’s desk.

      She’s part of the problem.

      We like to believe she isn’t, but she’s a proud consumer just like the rest of them.

      She will never fight back against the culture of consumption until it becomes cool to do so.

      I can eat for literal days, having several pounds of meat, for $15. Meanwhile she feels justified in defending spending $15 on avocado toast and her useful idiots support her because they’re part of the problem, too.

      All democrats become conservatives when their consumerism is threatened.

        She absolutely was a progressive, until that corporate lobby money started hitting her bank account.

        Now her bullshit is just performative, like all the rest.

      Not a rumor, only 2 house members voted against (both republican).

      mfw we can pass a bipartisan spy law no problem but a bipartisan daylight savings law is still too hard.

        To be fair, DST is a more complicated issue. Everyone wants to end it, but there’s disagreement on how to do it.

        One side wants to not be missing an hour of sleep half the year and wants to go to standard time only.

        The other side is psychopaths. We had a Spring Forward. I’m owed a Fall Back. If they try to take that away from me, I’ll take up arms.

      She did. She ‘objected to some of the wording’ but jumped in line like a good little puppet.

        Her and Bernie won’t acknowledge palestinian defenders in their rallies. Puppets to the bone like all the others, just another form of controlled opposition.
