Bingo. Even if they flip the Senate AND scrap the filibuster, Trump can veto anything he wants until noon on 1/20/29. Edit: Yes, they should pass positive policy stuff anyway, I just meant that people need to understand that it's possible NONE of it will actually be implemented due to his veto.

How you return your ballot depends entirely on your home state! 🗺️🗳️ Some states let you submit your voted ballot electronically (by email, online portal, or fax), while others require you to return it by postal mail. Check the map! Find your state's specific rules and deadlines at votefromabroad.org!
A graphic showing a map of the U.S. on a light yellow background. It shows states in 4 colors. The text says “U.S. voters abroad: ballot return method by state. The key below the map indicates blue states as “all may return electronically,” yellow as “all may return by fax,” light pink as “Check state: military or voters in Special Areas may be able to return electronically,” and dark pink as “all must mail ballot.” A black dot is on Alabama that indicates “Alabama: Ballot may be returned electronically if the ballot was requested to be sent to the voter by email.” The Vote From Abroad dot org logo is at the bottom.

Every time one Democrat does something bad it's "the Democrats" and every time a Democrat does something good it's "finally one Democrat who gets it." "The Democrats" is one of the most annoyingly ill-used verbal tics across the entire spectrum of hellsites.

It’s very simple and it’s been said over and over but I guess it needs saying continuously: if you ignore that Dems voted 206-2 & 47-0 against the trans athlete bill & attribute a post by some rando as the position of the Democratic Party you are a fucking dishonest hack

BTW, if you’re pro-trans people, the obvious choice is support Talarico, bc if he wins, & we net at least 4 senate seats, Dems will control what comes to the floor, & the same number of anti-trans bills will come to the floor as did the last time Dems held the Senate: Zero

No starker example of the media having different rules for each political party. If the press treated Elon Musk like Hasan Piker, every Republican in America would be forced to answer questions about why their party's biggest donor espouses anti-semitic race science.

The need is for harmonization, and building up scale and efficiency in North America. But of course what we’re getting instead is fragmentation. Even if Beijing tried, it couldn’t come up with a trade policy more damaging for North American competitiveness than Trump’s. 🗺️
