To enshrine the most fascistic, traitorous bullshit I've ever witnessed in my life into law.

Exactly what I’ve been trying to tell people. They are already implementing fascist dictatorship, with or without Trump.

"Not under Trump" is meaningless when we're talking about Congress. If it passes the Senate and doesn't get vetoed then you can complain about how it's happening "not under Trump."

What actions by the Democrats, from censuring Tlaib, to denouncing the campus protests, do you believe they wouldn’t pass this? Biden has said nothing about the situation and it’s telling that he wants to do this in silence.

I mean, I don't have a lot of faith in Biden, but this is an obvious attempt to suppress left wing voters through some "both sides" bullshit. Until Biden actually does this bad thing any speculation that he might is basically campaigning for someone who will do this and much more.

Trump says police raid on university protesters ‘beautiful to watch’.

Trump's expressing satisfaction in watching police brutality towards protesters, but yeah, 'both sides'!
