I was there. There was no bussing. There were no paid actors. Just a bunch of angry Nebraskans wanted to take it out on their gutless, evil Rep.

I am a registered Republican, who has voted for at least 1 Republican in every election since i turned 18 and i was there yelling at and booing him. It was mostly libs, but not all.

He’s a sociopath so incapable of being moved. Basically just said a fascist wouldn’t show up to a town hall and take questions.

I am more of an independent, but my current party affiliation is Republican (so I can vote in the primaries). I think it was probably mostly Dems, but no way to know for sure.

There was 1 Epstein question. At least that made it to the stage. They had people submit questions in advance and also took questions from the crowd.

I have no clue honestly. My best guess is he’s lost some support but probably not enough to lose his seat. Half of our district is rural and he won in 2024 by 20 pts.

I didn’t take any, I was too busy yelling at him. There were people around me filming the entire thing, so guessing there will be lots of videos posted in the next 24 hours.

While I agree with your point, Nebraska is actually 1 of the 10 “donor states” that regularly pays more in taxes than we take in assistance.

Nebraska is a state of 2 million people, there were 650 people in that room tonight. Not a good representative sample of the state. We all voted in November, we were just outnumbered.

There is currently an NWS flash flood warning in effect for all five boroughs of NYC. But no City agency has posted it on this platform. Please help spread the word. “If you live in a basement apartment or low-lying area, be ready to move to higher ground.”

I’m not sure how it was insufficient. He was able to choose between survival and redemption and he very courageously chose redemption in front of June, the face of the resistance. I can’t think of a better redemption arc.

And then they replaced him with someone better, with very few other options due to timing. Biden deserves blame for that for sure, but at the end of the day, it was an obvious choice for any serious, well-meaning adult. Trump ran on overt fascism and America still chose him. This is on voters.

You are so full of shit. “Both sides are just as bad”. No, sorry that is just something people say to avoid accountability and to check out. Dems offered a qualified candidate with tons of gov experience and moderate policies. She also wasn’t a rapist, felon, or insurrectionist. Just stop.

I agree with the vast majority of what you post, but this is so far off the mark. The media might not have adequately reported on the severity of Biden’s age related health problems, but they consistently talked about his decline for the entirety of his term.

I would argue that if someone is willing to discard their values to attain/maintain power, they are probably not a great person. The mask is off for a lot of our congresspeople (on both sides of the aisle).

I live in his district. 45% of his constituents live in Lincoln (which is mostly Blue), but he chose to hold his town hall in a city 1 hour away that is mostly Red in order to avoid criticism. Glad it didn’t work. What a coward.

Because Republicans are the majority, they don’t need any Dems to bring them to a vote. Dems filibustered Vought for the maximum 30 hours and are blocking unanimous consent of lower appointments.

Trump’s mental decline is on full display and Republicans still voted for him after 4 years of whining and screaming about Biden’s age and mental fitness. If you want to argue that presidents shouldn’t be 78 years old I’m not going to disagree but lose the faux righteous anger.

It’s more nuanced than that. There were former business executives working for the government essentially for free and not every contract was profitable. You can hate Nazi’s and also not want your country to go to war. What AOC said might not be 100% accurate but it’s also not 100% wrong either.

This isn’t entirely accurate. The U.S. manufactured and provided most of the equipment and weapons used by the allies in WWII and did so before we officially entering the war. The allies would have lost without our help. Wont argue that we took too long to enter the war. Shoulda joined sooner.
