American Politics Thread

Not to mention countless people being well off and still racist.

(and so much more under Trump with his creepy "patriotic education" thing)

Speaking of which...

Trump's 1776 Commission—Created To Challenge Controversial 1619 Project— Releases Report On MLK Day

The commission was seen by many as an attempt to push back on the New York Times’ 1619 Project.

Amazing. I'd be surprised if the average American even remembers the 1619 Project, yet the GOP is still bitching about it 17 months later.

About 34 hours to go until we say goodbye and good fucking riddance to Trump. While this is indeed a big thing to celebrate, we must never let our guard down and get complacent.

The plans is to split up the Senate's workday, with the mornings focused on the impeachment trial and the afternoons focused on confirming Biden's nominees.

Here we are, everyone! Today is the day! We fought long and hard for this moment and its finally arrived! In just 12 more hours, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will be sworn in as our new President and Vice President! The era of MAGA is over! Goodbye and good fucking riddance, Trump!

Send off time here in a few. Bye Felicia!

The last thing I heard was him bragging about his three Supreme Court justices which was historical. Funny, maybe it was a historical amount because it was wrong. One of them was stolen from President Obama.

Oh well. Trump is done now.

We can finally close the book on this country's worst 4-year stretch since the Civil War.

Wondering when he'll end Trump's disgusting discriminatory ban on transgendered people serving in the military.

Oh, yay, I'm real glad to see that bit about discrimination against LGBT people! That asshole had undone some protections against it, and I was worried it would just fly under the radar!

I saw this morning that the Trump administration took last minute actions to further hurt the LGBT community in adoption and right to shelters. It's very disgusting. Very disgusting that hurting LGBT people is what Trump thought was so important for him to finish his job with.

I really hope that #16 means undoing those.

The Trump administration has done so much harm to the LGBT community and its disgusting. Its nice to know this administration is working already to restore what they lost, and I even heard something about allowing transgendered people to use the restroom they see fit. Of course, here comes all the transphobic parents bitching, using their kids merely as an excuse to avoid saying they're transphobic.

Basically real life Helen Lovejoys without the entertainment value of the actual cartoon character:-(.
