you think they will likely take the senate? my brother in christ, what are you smoking

i think Democrats take both houses

Nobody f**k with a Biden

[exploited]

The GOP won't take the Senate.

The House is likely but that may change if Biden keeps on doing rad shit, like pardoning federal marijuana possession charges and getting it rescheduled.

[Eternal]

Regardless of whether the Dems keep the senate or not without the house they, and America for that matter, are screwed.

Reps in the house means goodbye to any Jan 6 investigations, and hello to non stop Biden investigations (both dad and son). Reps will have a field day.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not wanting this to happen. It should also be stated that this rise in fascism isn't limited to the US it's happening globally. Just seems that the Dems and the Reps are not doing a good job of containing it.

yes dark brandon going dank is pretty amazing, and we'll see what else he has in store. probably eating ice cream in aviators menacingly, among other things

but I stand by what I earlier have said. I think the polls are very wrong. I thought the polls were wrong in 2016 too. but this time, the polls are wrong because of Roe overturning. people do be mad, and i think the dems will anywhere from hold to pick up 12 in the house, judging by polls. if this happens, and since there is no just nor caring god there is a possibility it won't, i think they have two years to save america and frankly the world with massive fundamental reforms. the global rise of fascism will stop and retreat if the US gets its shit together. if it doesn't, well, we're all kind of f**k

We'll see - it's concerning how much the price of gas is impacting the trajectory of polls right now.

I am watching what’s unfolding in the UK right now with absolute awe. Ironically this will actually further erode market sentiment about the UK government and word on the street is that Truss is next.

Just stunning and an unmitigated disaster for the conservatives.

I'm no economic expert, but Brexit has to be contributing to Britains woeful economic recovery. It doesn't have a large resources or manufacturing sector and it ceded its role as Europe's financial hub when it enacted Brexit.

Oh well, I guess Australia can now look forward to a large influx of pommy immigrants.

Europe as a whole is going to be struggling for some time now. Next year might be more challenging without any chance of a reserve building from Russia. I want to think the market can correct for this by then but...I don't know.
