    I am against trying to acquire Greenland. However, I support this naming. If the USA is going to let something this moronic happen, we deserve to have this be a monument to our impotence and idiocy.

    I’m seeing the name of the community, and I’m still not entirely sure this isn’t an onion. It’s that onion-y.

      Red, white and blue are like the most common country flag colours. USA, UK, Australia, New Zealand, France, Russia, Netherlands, Chile, Cuba, Czechia, Iceland, Laos, Liberia, Luxembourg, North Korea etc. I’m sure you get the point. It seems like most countries aren’t particularly creative or daring when it comes to flags. Almost like all the lions and eagles that you see in military or old timey flags and symbols.

    can you imagine being a Democrat congressperson who actually wants to do something useful for people and having to listen to this? I’d probably just resign.

      All resigning does is give them a greater margin to win votes by. We have several chances to win a tie or majority in the house and senate

      Three house seats are up for special elections, two in florida and one in NY. If they all elect democrats, there will be a tie in the houde and any bill can be blocked.

      Senate votes can be held without all members present, so making sure all democrat congress members always show up and always vote gives a good chance of blocking some bills

      Also in 2026 will be the midterm and we can vote republican congressmembers out, as they only have a majority and not a supermajority.

        What I want to know is: what does the vote of a Republican Senator cost these days? Can we start GoFundMe campaigns to get some things changed in our preferred direction?
