Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

Primary every Dem Senator that voted for cloture. It’s time for new leadership.

I wish I lived in a country where Chuck Schumer and John Fetterman had at least half the balls of Nancy Pelosi or Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Yes. The answer is yes.
Reporter: Is it time for new leadership in the Senate?

Jeffries: Next question.

Maddow: I think it is a bad mistake to let Joy Reid walk out the door. It is also unnerving to see that on a network where we've got two nonwhite hosts in primetime, both of our nonwhite hosts in primetime are losing their shows, as is Katie Phang on the weekend. I do not defend it.

The takeover of Twitter was a preview of what we're all living with now and a stark example of why you can't let any one person have too much money: they go insane and make themselves everybody's problem

Not for nothing but everyone realizes that these teenagers and 20 somethings who have complete access to the Treasury payment source code are now #1 espionage recruitment targets for Russia and China, right?

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it.

“When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.”

Hard truth for the Democratic Party: everything & everyone who led to this, from party leadership, the major consultants, the strategy, to the platform must all go.

There must be a total rebuild of the party, starting with funding, then policy.

This is a failure.

It should be illegal for insurance companies to leave people in the lurch when disaster strikes.

It's absolutely INSANE.

While we’re banning books…

Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar.

Be. Like. Finland.

Dear Democrats,

Nothing will change until the progressive left is given the chance to lead your party. The 80+ people must pass the torch. Until that happens, I shall keep not blessing you with the outcome you want—victory.

Sorry,

God

Being mad about corporate greed doesn’t mean you’re an extremist terrorist.

It means you have a brain.

The NBA doesn't have a 3 pt shot problem.

3's have skyrocketed this yr because it's the most protected shot.

Inside the 3 line, there can be all kinds of contact.
Outside the 3 line, you can't even be in the "landing zone", and most guys just fly by to contest.

Of course there are more 3s

The greed and unwillingness to let go of power by the boomer Dem congress members is breathtaking.

Re: Pelosi, two things can be true:

1. She’s the most consequential female politician of our time. She was a fantastic Speaker, and we owe her a great deal.

2. She needs to realize that it’s time to let the new generation lead and stop trying to block AOC.

Hoping for a full recovery for her.
