Looking like mark Cuban is going to run in 2028 as the anti trump

Not enthusiastic about this but he can win against Kamala or buttigieg in a primary

Minnesota is a real testament to the direction the Democrats can take a state.

They really have only have a few votes majority in their Senate and House. The legislation they’ve passed is progressive/liberal, but is hardly groundbreaking:
-legal recreational weed
-free school lunch
-created laws to protect abortion and against LGBTQ discrimination
-12 weeks guaranteed Family Medical Leave

And just compare that to North Carolina where we
-can’t pass a budget. Still waiting to expand Medicaid after 13 years.
- are sitting on $billions in state reserves but can’t “afford” enough school bus drivers.
-the main legislation this session has abortion restrictions and bullying trans people. So accomplished.
-have spent the past two months on trying to pass the Senate Pro Temp’s personal casino legislation, building one in his county.

The fuck are we doing?

Minnesota is a favorite state of mine.

Possibly not the best thread for this, but it's a disappointing development to come out of a Democratic administration's Environmental Protection Agency.

https://www.propublica.org/article/epa-approved-chevron-fuel-ingredient-cancer-risk-plastics-biofuel

Quote :

"The Environmental Protection Agency approved a component of boat fuel made from discarded plastic that the agency’s own risk formula determined was so hazardous, everyone exposed to the substance continually over a lifetime would be expected to develop cancer. Current and former EPA scientists said that threat level is unheard of. It is a million times higher than what the agency usually considers acceptable for new chemicals and six times worse than the risk of lung cancer from a lifetime of smoking... EPA scientists included figures that made it possible for ProPublica to calculate the lifetime cancer risk from breathing air pollution that comes from a boat engine burning the fuel. That calculation, which was confirmed by the EPA, came out to 1.3 in 1, meaning every person exposed to it over the course of a full lifetime would be expected to get cancer... For every 100 people who ate fish raised in water contaminated with that same product over a lifetime, seven would be expected to develop cancer..."

So is this likely due to typical government corruption from corporate influence peddling or because the agency was previously hollowed out by the previous Trump administration?

Why not both!? And throw in a BS "green win" for using recycled plastic.

Bob Menendez to help kill the Dem majority?

9/22/2023 11:15:46 AM

I can't think of a Democratic politician that I dislike more than Bob Menendez. He should have resigned years ago.

9/22/2023 1:12:57 PM

^^ he’d be replaced with another Dem

9/22/2023 2:00:01 PM

If he resigns, if he carries it to the election....

His last race was tight
