First time the bill almost passed it included yays by Democrats like Adam Schiff. This says 15 Democrats still voted for it. Won't be long before humanitarian nonprofits are labeled terrorist organizations for sending food to kids.
I'll take small wins where I can: That 15 is down from something like 57 from last time. Reach out to your Senators in mass numbers. Let your voice be heard. We cannot know the impact that will have unless we try.
They just lost to Trump cause they couldn't bother listening to voters. I love your optimism, but I say its time we kick em to the curb and get some real progressives.
I agree. However, the Democrat name still has respect. I say we reform the party by keeping the name and replacing the old fools who seem so intent on learning the wrong lessons.
Does it though? I guess people like the idea of what they imagine Democrats can be again, or become, but that ship sailed a long time ago. Facebook rebranded to Meta after the Cambridge Analytica scandal and that seemed to have worked well.
This is done in the primaries.
It's not like you can get fined for given food to homeless people in the USA already in places. This won't be abused /s
Why the fuck would you want this kond of power in hands of the president. At least keep the power with the Senate.. or with the judiciary branch where it belongs.
Yikes. This will end poorly, very poorly
For those wishing to know more. Section 4 applies the standard that is found in 18 USC § 2339B
Whoever knowingly provides material support or resources to a foreign terrorist organization, or attempts or conspires to do so, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both, and, if the death of any person results, shall be imprisoned for any term of years or for life. To violate this paragraph, a person must have knowledge that the organization is a designated terrorist organization (as defined in subsection (g)(6)), that the organization has engaged or engages in terrorist activity (as defined in section 212(a)(3)(B) of the Immigration and Nationality Act), or that the organization has engaged or engages in terrorism (as defined in section 140(d)(2) of the Foreign Relations Authorization Act, Fiscal Years 1988 and 1989).
Who that applies to I leave to the reader, but that's the standard that would be argued in Court over any determination that the President gave to any entity.
I wish we would do this with churches.
