I think one of these would work for you.

There are no cases permitted by law!!! The 14th amendment outlines that anyone born or naturalized in the US is a citizen. There are no constitutional mechanisms to reverse this. I know we are past the point where shouting “it’s against the law!” matters, but damn…

All it does is punish local drivers making moves that no actual officer would actually ticket for (like turning right on a red with no pedestrians present).
ChonkyOwlbear@lemmy.worldtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Chicago’s South Side gets over 3X tickets per red-light camera as North Side73·6 days agoRed light cameras are nothing more than a tax on local drivers and, as usual, that burden falls most on minorities.
ChonkyOwlbear@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•State Voter Suppression Bills Could Disenfranchise Millions Ahead of Midterm Elections2·6 days agoIIRC, the Democrats used the filibuster more during Trump’s first term than the Republicans did during Obama’s second term. It is a highly flawed tool, but it does have its uses. Yeah, we are going to be able to pass more things we want, but so will the opposition.
I think we should get rid of the filibuster because it has allowed the Executive to take more power. That doesn’t mean it will be entirely positive. It might even be a net negative. Remember that we got rid of the filibuster for supreme court appointments and that is what allowed the Republicans to take a supermajority there.

The Repubs spent the next decade trying to break it. The Democrats have a lot of issues, but they are NOT the major problem here.

ChonkyOwlbear@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•State Voter Suppression Bills Could Disenfranchise Millions Ahead of Midterm Elections42·7 days agoYes, but that would have affected virtually nothing Trump has done since gaining office again.

The lot was behind a block long strip of popular restaurants and businesses and served as the collective parking for all of them. Removing it pretty much guarantees the street parking along that block will never be removed, when otherwise that block would be a prime candidate to be made a pedestrian-only block.

Unfortunately a good 40% of the country are so brainwashed by propaganda that they think that what Trump is doing is good. Someone is going to start the second civil war, but nobody is eager to fire the first shots.
