To 2021 and Beyond .... current politics

I have a hard time saying Cuomo should leave office given the fact President pussy grabber had what, 25+ accusers come out against him? But if you want to talk about the nursing home fiasco and if he should step down over that I think that's a valid conversation.



Well Trump wasn’t exactly honest about the pandemic either.....
If Cuomo is found to be dishonest about either issue he should step down, just like Trump should have.
It is comical though these Trumpers that are calling for Cuomos head. Trump lied to an entire country and was responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths. He literally is on tape in the extremely early stages saying he knew how dangerous it was. He is on tape with the pussy grabbing shit too. Trump is always number one!

Also, no comments on Cuomo. Literally zero, with more evidence than say a "conservative" like Brett Kavanaugh.



My mind is actually pretty blown by this.



Let's just have some honesty here, just tell the truth and admit the political threads here exist solely for one side to complain about the other side, and we all know what side is what.



Show me the comments you made when Trump was accused by women or when he lied about the pandemic on a way bigger scale and Ill consider your comments anything other than partisan

Not a fan of Cuomo in regards to the nursing home fiasco but I am pretty ignorant of him.. I really don't pay attention to politicians outside my state unless they are national level then that is my tax dollars paying their salary.

Imagine if 108 white conservatives in Texas tested positive for COVID, announced they were all going to bus to somewhere between North Carolina and New Jersey because they want to. Every person on the left would rightfully call them all assholes.

But since Biden is president now, no criticisms allowed. Let people that already broke our laws by coming here illegally also travel wherever with COVID.

You can't convince me there wasn't 108 white conservatives with covid that decided not to go to DC on Jan. 6th, they probably just didn't get tested because they dgaf unless they were dying.

This whole bitching about 108 people is a minor part of a bigger issue to me which is immigration reform. If you wanted to address it as part of a larger package about how people coming here illegally can get processed through the system quicker to become legal tax-paying citizens, sure I'd have that convo.

But (not for you) the whole illegal immigration issue for conservatives is more about not wanting them here period than it is about how to let them become contributors to the system in the first place. Go ask former top POTUS advisor Stephen Miller how he feels about legal immigration.

Can't we just remove them both from politics totally and regain the standards of decency we used to have? I miss the time when a presidential blowjob was beyond the line of decency for conservatives.

I'll accept that I'm partisan (which I am regardless), rather than go back thru all those comments. I moved on from Trump in November, hopefully NY can move on from Cuomo soon.

I am fairly critical of republicans too. But I'm definitely more critical of democrats.

Edit - Just now noticed, I totally replied to the wrong post. This was meant to be in reply to Punch's comment above yours.

Whether any of them had COVID or not, I don't know. But they all have something wrong with them mentally. Those people made terrible decisions and now people are dead.

I don't think either side (elected people, not us voters) are interested in actually accomplishing immigration reform. They both just complain about the other side to save face, while they both benefit for themselves and their big donors from illegal immigration, while Americans, including a large section of minorities, get screwed by it.

A Department of Homeland Security spokesperson said the agency has offered local communities funding for testing, but it needs the state to sign off first: “We hope that Governor Abbott will reconsider his decision to reject DHS’s agreement with the Texan local authorities that would enable the very testing of migrant families that Governor Abbott says he wants.”

Gov. Greg Abbott appeared this week to rebuff help from the federal government to give coronavirus testing to migrants before they are released from federal custody, saying it's a federal responsibility to screen immigrants coming into Texas.

The announcement came after Abbott, a Republican, repeatedly accused the administration of Democratic President Joe Biden of “releasing immigrants in South Texas that have been exposing Texans to COVID.” The Biden administration denied that Thursday, and CNN reported that Abbott was “stalling” on a federal offer to pitch in on testing migrants.

Asked for evidence of that claim, Abbott's office pointed to news reports from NBC News, Fox News and the New York Post earlier this week that 108 migrants had tested positive since Jan. 25 in Brownsville after being released by federal authorities.

The testing in Brownsville was reportedly administered by the city. NBC reported that 6.3% of the migrants tested were confirmed to have the coronavirus. That rate is smaller than the positivity rate statewide, in which an average of 8.3% of tests came back positive over the past seven days. The 108 tests over the past five weeks is a small share of the more than 3,800 confirmed cases in Cameron County reported by the state since Jan. 25.

Maybe I am misinterpreting here. This is federal policy when an asylum seeker reaches US soil correct? But the local government is paying for testing? That seems off to me.
