When a network lays off one of America’s greatest satirists, it’s not because he failed. It’s because he succeeded too loudly.

the other thing is that no one who fetishizes manual labor actually cares to improve life for people who are in those circumstances! no support for unionization or a generous welfare state! no interest in policies that make life easier for people who work their hands or afford them more autonomy!

You have to stop worrying about whether people like you.
The minute you stop caring what others think, is the minute you start being yourself.
You only have to impress yourself 🐈

AOC: I heard that someone was flying a plane with a banner that said this is Trump country… It sure don’t look like it today.
I don’t think this is Trump country. This is our country.

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position.

I agree with this. What about some of the others leaning towards voting yes. Can they be pressured? Schumer is one vote.
The question is what additional pressure can be brought to bear over next 18 hrs to shake this free. As noted, no on cloture Sens CAN bring pressure to bear if they really want to; reps can too. Ordinary voters can apply more pressure. I see no reason to give in until the votes r cast.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.
Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.
Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

if you find yourself reluctant to support the guy at Columbia because you find some of the politics he espoused distasteful or even abhorrent, you should know that this is exactly the reaction that they hoped for in choosing him as a target for unlawful detention based on political speech.

Trump is back at Mar-a-Fraudo this weekend playing golf games. It costs about $3M to transport a POTUS from DC to South Florida. That's enough money that USAID could feed around 250,000 kids for two weeks.
