The vote failed by 7 votes. These 11 Democrats didn't vote:
Julia Brownley (Calif.), Lou Correa (Calif.), Laura Gillen (NY), Steven Horsford (Nev.), Jonathan Jackson (Ill.), Nancy Pelosi (Calif.), Brittany Pettersen (Colo.), Melanie Stansbury (NM), Haley Stevens (Mich.), Marilyn Strickland (Wash.), and Frederica Wilson (Fla.)
But the ultra rich got there when the Boomers put Reagan in office. They voted to help themselves a little, and the 1% a lot.
Well if it isn't the consequences of my actions.
The judge has already ordered them not to cut any trees down without giving the judge plenty of notice first.
Now the judge is saying, no really, I'm really serious, don't cut any more down. Trump knows there's no punishment for his actions, and will continue to flaunt the law.
A few other points about this, the U.S. is currently a UNESCO member. https://www.unesco.org/en/countries/us
The pertinent law was passed in 1994, and it's not just directed at Palestine (but there's speculation that was the major intent of the law). https://www.congress.gov/103/statute/STATUTE-108/STATUTE-108-Pg382.pdf SEC 410. LIMITATION ON CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE UNITED NATIONS AND AFFILIATED ORGANIZATIONS. The United States shall not make any voluntary or assessed contribution— (1) to any affiliated organization of the United Nations which grants full membership as a state to any organization or group that does not have the internationally recognize attributes of statehood, or (2) to the United Nations, if the United Nations grants full membership as a state in the United Nations to any organization or group that does not have the internationally recognized attributes of statehood during any period in which such membership is effective.
The law was passed in April of 1994. Democrats controlled Congress, and the presidency at the time the law was passed (this isn't meant to mean Republicans didn't support it, just pointing out which party was in power). https://history.house.gov/Congressional-Overview/Profiles/103rd/ https://www.senate.gov/history/partydiv.htm https://history.house.gov/Institution/Presidents-Coinciding/Presidents-Coinciding/
In a July 2026 poll, support for Palestine is increasing. https://apnorc.org/projects/democrats-are-increasingly-supportive-of-the-palestinians-while-support-for-israel-declines/
Trump's approval is low, but 1/2 the country will still vote Republican.
"Too big to fail" will continue to be the mantra of socializing costs while privatizing profits, and the idiots of this country will continue to vote for it.
Has she not heard about Mitch McConnell?
"“I’ve lost trust and don’t have time to find a new solution for upcoming travel. I have someone coming for check-ins, but they can’t come in 5 times every day to give food,” a Reddit user [said]"
They shouldn't have pets if they can't figure out how to take care of the pet without a smart device. Are you too dumb to own a pet? Check. That also makes you too dumb to have kids.
"Under the contract, NOAA can also avail itself of Google’s DeepMind set of AI tools to help build out its first AI-driven weather forecasting system, the AI Global Forecast System, which promises to offer accurate weather forecasts using 99.7% fewer computer cycles and take minutes, rather than hours, to produce a forecast."
If there's one thing I know about large tech companies and promises, they always keep them. Thankfully the U.S. doesn't have a bunch of sociopaths running the government who don't want to acknowledge climate change because oil and coal industries are giving them bribes. This will only end well.
Watched 1 episode, it was at least 1/2 scripted reality TV bullshit.
This is going to be worse than the housing market crash in 2008. Everyone is going to keep trying to cash in as long as they can, until the house of cards falls.
