One goal of HR1 is to REMOVE money out of politics and especially dark money. You know, so the deep state can't buy politicians as easy. But let's pretend that we don't like that, since it was introduced by a Democrat and McConnell won't allow it in the Senate.

This is like a race to see who can become the biggest hypocrite. Complain about the deep state funding Democrats and then complain when Democrats try to do something about it.

I'll be fair, there's a lot I like about combatting dark money and capping donations. I don't polarize things towards Democrat / Republican point by point. They're both fricking us. Overall the Democrats are trying to ensure they never lose again. 16 year old vote, allowing former felons to vote, etc. That's they fly in the ointment.

Besides, this isn't overall about HR 1. That just hastens things

Ingenious in it's non-partisan, political neutrality. Hard to slander, deny, defame, incriminate ANYONE/ANYTHING for not wanting, supporting FREEDOM!

It shifts what power the constitution allows from a known, corrupt & hated playing field (Washington) and cheating players, teams, referees (Politicians/Judges/FBI) to another field (States) full of motivated, home town players dedicated/determined to sacrifice, walk on & fight like hell for the opportunity to just be a part of, contribute, help THE TEAM to reach, obtain a fair, winnable goal/victory of Freedom! To work/compete to learn, improve, help, advance/maintain an honorable, worthwhile cause with clear rules, penalties fairly called, equitably enforced - ALL PLAYED/WATCHED/CHEERED ON A LEVEL PLAYING FIELD! To be given a honest chance to Walk On and maybe play, contribute for a role/position on the State Team.

A Place Where Generations of Local, Like-Minded Neighbors Come Together To Protect, Pass Down, Be Proud of, Cheer For, Respect, Play & Work For - HOME!

Thank you for being honest. I agree with this, but your original post was decidedly partisan.

This is BS, though. A major problem with politics today is that the GOP argues to win, while Democrats argue on the merit of ideas. One example of this occurred during the Obama Presidency, when they decided at the beginning to automatically oppose everything Obama supported, regardless of what it was. The GOP treats politics like a college football game, where one side must lose for the other to win. There is no willingness to compromise and work together in a bipartisan manner. About the only exception is when it comes to pleasing the deep state.
