Also how they're framing it as Musk being a rich guy trying to control our democracy. :jerk

Yeah, he's like the only rich guy not on their side. Practically every other elite is on their team. But of course they'll lie and act like they're the party of the little guy.

Edit, just saw they actually claimed they aren't beholden to the rich elites, or big pharma. After all the Covid bullshit, they have the nerve to say that. Incredible.

I must be missing something. How is it any different than doing an interview on ABC? Or MSNBC? Musk, because Musk is evil?

That's right. Anyone who opposes them is evil.

They're still mad at Jimmy Fallon for tussling his hair, thereby humanizing him. We can't have that.

If they got the power to do it, they would. It's naive to think otherwise.
Outside of martial law, how? I think this country has to get a lot more progressive than it is now to get close to that point if they expect an honest vote to ban weapons to work.

A vote? All they have to do is control the Supreme Court and they can do it.

There better be some expansion or some dying for that.
Well of course there will be dying (and retirements). And a lot of their loons do want to expand it. When do Rs ever call for that?

K.

But if enough people think like you, you could have your taxes raised by 30 or 40k, plus they come for your guns among other things.

But suit yourself.
There is basically no evidence to support either position. SCOTUS has already protected guns more than anyone in decades, and I’m not going to trade off having over $20k of my money already stolen for the possibility of my money being stolen. If Trump’s tax plan goes away, then I get all of that money back moving forward as SALT deductions return. So your argument is a moot point on taxes. Trump already raised my taxes, so he’s already proven to be a tax loving piece of shit.

Conservatives outnumber the liberals in SCOTUS 6-3. There’s no way in Hell that four of the 6 conservative justices will retire or die. Stop it. So unless Congress becomes fully controlled by the Democrats, AND they try to ram legislation to expand SCOTUS by multiple seats, none of that will happen.

No, they don’t. The Republicans control the House, so no legislation would ever pass.
No they don't what?

And yeah, right now the Rs control it by a hair. Obviously that won't always be the case. It may not even be a few months from now.

Now that Biden has been deposed, it's funny how the Left is no longer encouraging Sotomayor to retire.

The Democrats have controlled all three chambers multiple times and, thankfully, very little gun legislation was passed. Even still, SCOTUS can still overturn those laws anyway.

If it helps, I’m still encouraging her to retire. And take the other 2 with them.
