Hope these are accurate! PiS's actions towards democracy and free press are sickening

Yes, let's escalate the conflict further, surely this will save lives!

These laws seem ripe for exploitation by contrarian little shits who hate this bullshit and have nothing to lose if they get sued. Amtrak is in Texas – does it count if you're driving them to the station? What if you go off-road? Plus, if I get in my car with someone, what's to stop me and my abortion-seeking friend from driving through the town without stopping? How would anyone have cause to suspect me? If I get pulled over somehow, then this law can't apply, right? It's specifically private citizens.

Since it relies on people suing you, I feel like it leaves a lot of avenues open for someone with the right resources to fight in court.

LMAO of course it does, Elon is using the site to specifically foment disinformation and support right wing politics.

Republican legislative leaders aren’t taking up significant any gun control changes, including the governor’s push to keep guns away from people judged to pose a threat to themselves or others.

They'll be damned if anyone is gonna call em out on their bullshit, especially a person of color.

Well duh? Are they nationalizing all carbon emitting industries to begin a managed decline of the industry or are they hoping economic magic and wishful thinking will work?

Literally. Oh, it's too long to do it one by one? Maybe prioritize then? Confirm 2-3 of the biggest promotions in order to prevent the Senate from abdicating it's Constitutional responsibility and ceding control of the military entirely to the executive.

I really don't care about US military readiness but I do value checks and balances, and right now the Senate is refusing to serve as one.

Important to know is that this is only possible because someone from a +19 Democrat district got elected, then flipped parties. So not only is this overriding a governor in order to Rule over their Betters, someone outright betrayed their constituents to do so.

This is a comment section, not a peer-reviewed journal, sir

I do grasp writing, that is specifically why I asked this question, because the headline framing it as a loss is negative to people who aren't already supportive of climate action.

So a fascist governor is trying to train a militia that answers only to him? Brownshirts anyone?

We hear this literally every election
