I hear we're in a #ConstitutionalCrisis officially now. #Democrats should have a goal to straight up WIN every Federal race, AND every #Governor race, AND #supermajority wins in every state legislature, AND every race on every ballot in the entire US. @winnabledemraces.bsky.social @aoc.bsky.social
#Supermajority
#DemocraticParty #Lawmaker #ChrisCampbell proposes repealing provision banning providers from “#aidingandabetting” #families seeking #GenderAffirmingCare out of state.
The heavily #gerrymandered #Republican #supermajority is unlikely to #support the bill.

In #NorthCarolina #Republicans have a #superMajority thanks to #gerrymandering and with that #majority they've pushed through #legislation to force proof of #identification #laws. Just got my #absenteeBallot and over #65 folks can give any old expired #id. Because you know they can't exclude their #base just everyone else.
How about a #free and #fair #election ?

When speaking to supporters from the swing state, where both #Trump & VP #KamalaHarris have doubled efforts to capture the #election count in Nov, Trump lamented the criticism aimed at #SCOTUS’ #conservative #supermajority & said it should be “illegal.”
“They were very brave, the #SupremeCourt. Very brave. And they take a lot of hits because of it,” Trump said. “It should be illegal, what happens.“

#Vermont #VTpol environmental policy is a complete disaster, because the Dem/Prog #supermajority in the #VTlegislature lacks sufficient expertise to evaluate the model
legislation proposals written by half-assed special interest lobbying groups masquerading as #environmentalism #NPOs, and #RubberStamp adopts without serious question or analysis the most hare-brained, convoluted schemes to blame everyone but the people doing the actual polluting. It's a political #bamboozle of epic proportions.
@severtz @weaselx86 @GottaLaff
If there are questions regarding the results of an election (legitimate or not), the current Rep remains in power until the issue is resolved (a mini-coup if you will.)
#Republicans did this in 2009 when #Obama won a #SuperMajority in the #Senate.
Sen Norm Colson disputed Al Franken's victory over him in the Senate to deny #Democrats a SM for as long as possible. After 4-5 recounts resulted in Franken's lead GROWING, Colson was finally forced to give it up.
The need for a #Democratic majority in the #House and either a #SuperMajority in the Senate (or abolish the #filibuster) has never been as necessary or crucial at any point in history.
This #RunawayCourt MUST be investigated & prosecuted! The court itself MUST be reformed, the #Chevon ruling overturned, and normalcy returned to #TheConstitution before we turn into a full-blown #BananaRepublic.
Yes, #Biden must win, but a #Democratic controlled #Congress is JUST AS IMPORTANT (if not more.)
