“Didier and Lt. Larry Longley, who leads the Police Outreach Engagement Team, justified the response by saying that officers were forced to watch crimes happen in the 2020 protests, and it was bad for morale.”

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

Wilson's win means an end to heavy-handed corporate patronage in the mayor's office going back to 2013, a lineage running from the serial child predator who resigned in disgrace to the mayor who inherited all his donors & teargassed the city, to the guy who supported both of them to the bitter end

At a certain point we have to accept persistent failure as a strategic feature in service to a pyramid scheme.
The sooner we get past internal recriminations and back to fighting united, the better off we all are — the likelier our victory next November.

Also many of the so called NO votes were not no votes. They supported the move to reopen and are glad to have those who supported cloture do so. Now they can make their little posts on social media and credulous voters will postback: 'thanks to my Senator for standing up.' Pure WWF.
It's just that they already voted to move this forward in the only vote that mattered. Today's vote only needs 50 so the Dems can now vote no and pretend that they didn't advance it when they already did.

"The only power you have is to vote" isn't just something the Democrat fandom believes, the actually powerful people in the party do too I guess.
I will not support the Republican bill that’s on the Senate floor because it fails to do anything of substance to fix America’s healthcare crisis.

The reason we continue to see Democrats literally capitulating with fascists at key moments where actual continued resistance would have fractured the fascists power is because fracturing the systemic powers that support fascism would also destroy neoliberalism and its theater in place of action.

Abolish the Senate.

It's antidemocratic, anti-Black, and classist. It exists solely because the racist founders thought the House of Representatives was TOO democratic and because the southern slavers demanded a house of Congress where they'd have outsized influence.

Get rid of it.
