The fact that the Democratic Party leadership think they can fool the electorate by putting up mostly retiring senators to vote for this capitulation is yet another indicator that they are not up to meeting the current moment and can’t be trusted to fight for their constituents’ wellbeing.

And King repeatedly voted unconditionally for the American Fascist Party’s CR.
Doesn’t lessen the shame of seeing him ultimately in line with the likes of Fetterman.

As a football fanatic I know exactly what you are talking about.
But I am here for the many, many followers that will have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

No revelry would occur without competent, reliable people being in charge of cups and ice.
They are the backbone of the party economy, especially in the last two months of the year.

It’s worse then that: the company is essentially looking for people that will pay $499/month or a $20,000 one-time payment to sign away their privacy and act as beta testers and AI trainers, as the Neo robot can do essentially nothing autonomously, and needs to be controlled by a remote operator.

The Right’s new talking points against health insurance premium subsidies is also perfectly in line with its union-busting efforts and attacks on opposition parties.
It’s not just an excuse to not to help people, it‘s an opportunity to make it easier to further exploit and subjugate them.

One of the reasons the Right wants to get rid of the ACA structure is to both move the country further away from a public single-payer option and further fragment bargaining power, giving healthcare providers and insurance companies even more price-setting control.
It‘ll drive costs up, not down!

A healthcare system primarily utilising HSAs doesn’t just individualise risk (big issue)—it individualises bargaining, in the same way to union-busting.
One of the main benefits of a public single-payer option is that the government has massive bargaining (and regulation) power to drive down costs.

And many of the same people asserting there is nothing wrong with a concerted Dem establishment intervention in the Senate race (and deriding those criticising it) are the ones I see now indirectly /directly complaining about Dem establishment intervention in the ME-2 House race.
Hence my comments.

The concerted support Mills has received from Dem establishment, in tandem with underhanded tactics against her challengers (before they or she even declared), are the elements most of us have called out as problematic.
But many of us have been told there is nothing wrong with that intervention.
