There is a special place in hell reserved for people like Pelosi. The U.S. and the world will be a far better place once she becomes worm food (then again I doubt the worms will even be able to bring themselves to eat her disgusting remains)
This place is different than Twitter and FB. With Twitter and FB, you only see tweets of people that you want to follow as well as whatever news alerts and trending topics Twitter and FB want you to see...but even on the trending stuff, you have to look for it. They don't automatically appear in your feed, at least on twitter...not sure about FB as I don't have a FB account...never bothered with that as I don't have any friends so I use NextDoor instead...anyhow, at least on here, I'm exposed to everyone else's viewpoints unless I decide to mute them. With Twitter, people likely only follow people that they like and agree with. So there's no flow of viewpoints that challenge one's opinions. I think that's part of the reason why society has become so polarized...that as well as cultural breakdown. If the US was a couple, it would have divorced a long time ago.
It goes back to the old FCC v Howard Stern wars...If you do not like what you are hearing, turn the dial!
FB and Twitter are the same. Just stop reading the unwanted bits!
I find it odd how the party that carries the most youth support is full of octogenarians who cling on to power. Biden almost 80, Pelosi 80, Sanders turns 80 in a couple months, Feinstein (still alive?). Pelosi and Schumer have spent a combined 80 years in power. Need term limits.
I agree.
They've mastered the craft of brainwashing Americans (youth obviously being far more susceptible). They preach lies of bettering the livelyhood of the masses - when in fact they only desire to better their position.
A lot of people like to call them dumb. They aren't dumb - they know exactly what they are doing. Evil at it's finest to be sure.
I think you're looking at this from a more narrow "what posts do I see and not see on Twitter" point of view. I'm looking at it from a broader boycott perspective, for example "I don't buy Goya products because I don't like the fact that Trump violated federal ethics rules to advertise them in the Oval Office". There are plenty of folks who either stopped using Twitter or never started using it because they disapproved of the voice it gave to Trump. Not because they were worried about seeing a Trump tweet while they were using the service. Heck its pretty unavoidable to see a Trump tweet even if you've never been on Twitter.
Any argument about "silencing" moves into attribution of political agenda to a corporation. They may have that or they may not, but Occams Razor is easily able to explain this as simply a company caught between a rock and a hard place and having to reluctantly cut off what was once a big driver of traffic to their site because they believe it now represents more of a liability (to the brand not legal) than a benefit.
But, if you want to go with the Chinese proverb thing; if your enemy derives much of their power from you continuing to let him them use your platform, then you're a fool to let them continue using your platform!
So first off, there is no question that Russia manipulated the 2016 election in a massive way. It was in fact hijacked.
And perhaps you didn't actually read the Mueller report, which most certainly did find wrongdoing. Wrongdoing that resulted in charges against 34 individuals and 3 companies, 8 guilty pleas, and a conviction at trial. And found wrongdoing on the Presidents part but stated that current regulations precluded any charges being brought against him as the sitting President. You guys really need to put this whole "nothing found" myth, it's so easily disprovable and obviously false.

Seldom do you see such an information free post. Thank you for sharing you little snowflake personal feelings with all of us....but frankly we don't care. If you have some actual policy to talk about, rather than gratuitous death threats against the Speaker of the House, feel free to join the adult conversation here. Otherwise, maybe just go outside and scream at the clouds.
How about you run an average age for Republican vs Democratic senators for us and let us know what you get? Seriously, pretty much all Senators are old, it's not a specific party thing.
I pretty distinctly remember Republicans pretty continuously screaming about how young Obama was and therefore lacking in experience, gravitas... Talk about double standards and hypocrisy! You have to be careful about that whole projection thing, it's pretty transparent.
As you criticize me for projecting...where did I criticize Obama for being too young? I never did. Funny how you criticize me for projection based on something I never said...therefore that makes you the one projecting!
Regarding average age of congress...
Democratic leaders in the House are two decades older than Republican leaders.
The average age of the Democratic House leadership is 72 years old, whereas the average age of Republican House leadership is 48 years old. This trend continues in House committee leadership with Republican chairmen averaging 59 years old and ranking Democrats averaging 68 years old.
