Illinois suffered significant undercounting during the 2020 census, leading to the mistaken conclusion that the state lost residents over the previous ten years — when in reality it added more than a quarter of a million people and swelled to its largest population ever.

Yes, the US can produce enough of its own baby formula until the one factory goes down due to a different contamination that killed the babies.

Did Trump's deregulation cause less inspections of the baby formula factory? Did it cause those running it to become complacent? Don't know.

Did Trump's tariff cause the problem? No. However, it appears to have exascerbated it by making Canadian imports at this time probibitive.

Last point, Warren's big issue has been goverment regulation. Bernie is Bernie and wants to regulate everything. They can beat the drum all they want, but no one has paid attention. So, you can blame "both sides" all you want, but Teddy Roosevelt is not walking through that door to snatch the GOP away from Trump/McConnell and restore its Trust Buster Glory. Would be nice if Biden's teleprompter guy proposed something along these lines, but he/she/they is probably more focused on pronouns.

Now we are on the right track

And, as Custard would say, a pox on both houses.

Tennessee has made being poor a felony. Part of the penalty is a loss of voting rights.

A 1950 law makes it illegal to picket or parade "in or near a building housing a court of the United States, or in or near a building or residence occupied or used by such judge, juror, witness, or court officer" with "the intent of ... obstructing justice or .. influencing any judge, juror, witness, or court officer ..."

Republicans seem pretty sure this should apply to pro-choice demonstrators near the homes of Supreme Court Justices. So far they have not complained about pro-life and pro-choice demonstrations near the Supreme Court.

Historical context shows the law was intended to be about criminal cases, not policy issues. Applying it to the latter might violate the 1st Amendment.

Stop trying to divert our attention from Hunter Biden's relationship with the Ukraine! It won't work!

So the cops got into a gunfight with the guy, who wasn't wearing body armor, couldn't take care of him, and then the guy was in the school for over an hour.

Forget brutality. We should defund the police just because they are useless.

So the Republican solution to mass shootings is to "harden security"?Meanwhile, they accuse Democrats who push for more gun control of politicizing the issue.

Bringing up gun control after a mass shooting is political
Saying that bringing up gun control after a mass shooting is political - also political

At least O'Rourke seems to know that deferring to the Republicans here is allowing them to be political and for him to not be.
It's all politics. Grow up snowflakes. Abbott doesn't care about it "being too soon", he just doesn't want to lose.
