every accusation is a confession

@ Roy 👏

When it is done on purpose, it is frequently done by Republicans.

Hence, the typical phenomenon of projection

It's not projection, it is pre-emptive accusation.

All of this is so depressing.

Could microfiche ballots, reduce space.

HR 3863 The “Fair Representation Act” would reduce the effects of gerrymandering by requiring multi-member districts of 3 to 5 Representatives per district in U.S. congressional elections. (Unless a state has fewer than 3 Representatives)

It’s time for Congressional Representatives to begin to learn about more modern ways to vote.

or a slap on the pinkie

The T-rump admin made a legal financial settlement with Boeing with agreement not to pursue criminal charges... Politicians do not like to prosecute their campaign contributors.

Am I the only one that does not care about money in elections?

...but most people don't James.

Money will always be in politics, the questions are who controls the money and the inequality of wealth. Vouchers help put the control on some of the money.

James. How about more debates. Lots more debates of all candidates.

I agree with increasing these fines to something proportional to that company's earnings.

...To make it sting. Actually, correct behavior.

and links yo videos of debates.

Can't Vote, Can't contribute. 100% of all money from voters. Constitutional Amendemnt.

"All politics is local" is a good thing for democracy first.

Thank you!
