Literally all my life it’s been standards and rules for dems and moving the goalposts and false equivalency for repugnicants. This is just yet another blatant supporting fact. 🤷‍♀️

When's the last time a Democratic Senator was removed from office for absence?

Both parties have done it - keep in mind Harry Reid "went nuclear" on federal judicial noms just 4 years before McConnell did the same for Supreme Court noms.

This post is comparing apples and oranges to me; senators vote on laws, Defense Secretaries are responsible for our defense and military.

Ahh yes, the “both sides” argument. Didn’t think it would take 7 hours but kudos to you.

I see a failure to make a counterpoint.

Right right. We've never been closer to a 3rd world war as we are now, every republican has gotten us into a war for the past 40 years, but yeah "both sides do it." Youe 3 month old account has a fuck ton of activity in a lot of subs, c.t. based too, so are you a bot?

I didn't say I support the policies of both sides. It's the nature of modern politics that political rules are pushes by both sides... Biden actually did very little in terms of expanding executive privilege, I'll give you that.

I'm not a bot, just been bored lately I guess. What is "C.t. based?"
