House Republicans voted Wednesday to formalize an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden as their investigation reaches a critical juncture and right-wing pressure grows.
Well, we don’t even have majority rule. We have a system skewed to give Republicans more power than their numbers. The House radically over-represents the cons and their extreme right wing agenda. The EC puts in Republicans that the majority did not want.
Friendly reminder that about half of eligible voters actually vote in presidential elections; less than half in midterm elections. People love to bitch and moan about our government, when half of them don’t bother to do anything about it.
That last bit was less friendly but I’m very upset about this.

The Senate even more so, given that California has more people than like the lowest five states combined yet they all get two Senators.
