What amendment are you looking for?

Charlie Kirk's death will be long forgotten by the midterms.


Let’s see for starters:

(1) Ending anchor babies. If you enter illegally you can never gain citizenship. Babies born of illegal parents are not automatically US citizens.
(2) Permanently set the number of SOTUS judges. No packing the court.
(3) Air-tight voter ID requirements. Must be a US citizen to vote.
(4) Legalize abortion up to 12-15 weeks with exceptions. Yes I actually agree with the Dems on this one. In fact, I’m betting most aborted babies would have turned into Dems/Libs so let them abort away.
(5) Prohibit gerrymandering. Not sure how to draw the congressional districts fairly and without bias because everyone has a bias especially the lefty bias on DCUM.
(6) Balanced Budget requirement
(7) Prohibit PACs and anything to do with big money influencing politics.
(8) Term limits for Congressman and Senators.
(9) Change the 2nd Amendment to restrict gun ownership. I don’t think this will stop criminals and those with criminal intent from acquiring guns but it’s a start.


I’m sure I can come up with more.


Not what I was expecting. Some good middle-ground and common sense stuff in there.

Most of those cannot be done with a Congressional majority or even supermajorities. The balanced budget suggestion would probably crash the economy.

FINALLY.

Yeah you can do those things after you announce your retirement.

The right wingers give you the death threats if you do it before.

And absolutely no trading stocks or other investments by politicians or their family members on insider political knowledge. Either prohibit all trading or put into a blind trust for independent party to manage. All trades must be reported same day. The penalties need to be severe not a slap on wrist.


Also, an end to lobbying. It should be an illegal activity.

Also, complete transparency for campaign contributions. Everyone needs to know who donated to whom and how much.

+1 you have to remember we are talking about people and we have stop the dehumanization. NC is a purple state with a lot of mixed political communities. When we are talking about “war” in these places, that means co workers, neighbors, and people you go to church and school with. People don’t know what they are really asking for and haven’t lived through actual armed conflict. Everyone is going to be miserable.

The Supreme Court isn’t going to allow almost any of this, even in the fantasyland where you could get it all through the House and Senate.

What's the difference between lobbying and speaking your mind to your member of Congress?

What are you trying to say?


For example, maybe politicians should stop posing with guns in their ads.


Democrats need to embrace guns. Because I have absolutely zero interest in gun control after yesterday. We need to be heavily armed to defend ourselves against these violent cretins. They already are. We are almost entirely defenseless. That balance of power needs to change.


Again, my point was this goes beyond "gun control". It also includes being mindful of rhetoric about guns and trying to act/look tough, especially on the part of political leaders.


Do you mean mixing up toxic masculinity with healthy masculinity? Like “smoking” (Hegseth’s word) accused drug smugglers with no due process? Freeing rioters convicted of beating Capital police with flagpoles? Changing the Department of Defense to War Department. Elevating men accused of domestic violence and rape? Trump and his followers seem to think real men are rough crass and violent thugs.

This Supreme Court basically made bribing politicians legal when it overturned the Bob for Jobs verdict.

It’s fantasyland if you think Republicans supermajorities and the requisite amount of state legislatures are going to get on board with all of that. They can’t even fund the government properly.
