Neera Tanden is gone.

Hopefully Xavier Becerra is next.


I wish. As usual, the right-wing tards blew their load pointlessly. Mean tweets are more offensive than what Becerra has done.

I partially agree. Becerra has done much worse but the GOP doesnt seem good at selling their case.

If I was conservative I would be even more a harsh critic of Trump and his enablers. It's weird how literally nobody on PaRD fills that mantle.

Nobody here is a real conservative. We have some libertarians, many right-wingers. No conservatives.

What is the difference between a right-winger and a conservative in your eyes? bogie was, at one point, the prototypical conservative IMO.

A conservative has an ideology that they defend. There's ideas and principles behind what they argue. They are willing to criticize politicians from either side who support contrary viewpoints. They aren't members of a political tribe.

Sure, it's natural that they'll give more leeway to one side or the other that agrees with them, but they won't completely ignore a politician who violates some of their principles because of other ideological goals.

That's the basic test. If you're going to defend and not attack a politician who violates many of your core beliefs, but also furthers those core beliefs, and offends the opposition, you're no longer a conservative, you're a member of a political tribe.

I think at the end of the day these people are more comfortable attacking the libs and defending what they think to be their tribe. It's hard to be someone who does not have a political home.

Joe Biden released 30,000 Mexican criminals into the US interior.

COVID tests beforehand?

NAH Biden doesn't care about your family.

he/she (icepeon) believes the conservatives left are all in the “lincoln” project

this assessment by that user is of course ridiculous. but that’s what you get when someone is an anti-American pale pasty privileged lefty who has never been told no before until 2016.
