I'm also so tired of Trump officials insisting that we're always a quarter or two from prosperity, as long as we give them *everything* they want. It's absolute hack conman shit.

Dismissing Biden for "sending checks to people"--a stimulus that allowed the US economy to survive and then recover from a pandemic better than any other industrialized country--while an impaired Trump is promising $2k checks to everyone for health insurance and $10k to "patriotic" ATCs.

A vote most Americans will be unaware of, and if they hear anything it will just be the white noise of a calcified, now-irrelevant body more interested in procedural nuance than fighting to help people live with dignity.

Anyway, looking forward to Bond being a plucky Amazon driver named ‘Jeff Bezos’ who gets trained into the Service, KINGSMEN-style.

TRUMP/GOP: Democrats are sick, demented people. Traitors and deviants, total losers. We can do whatever we want, and there’s nothing they can do about it.

The stakes are existential; the quisling Democrats are incrementalists.

Too many Democrats like @amyklobuchar.com are still looking for “common ground” issues where they want 7, Republicans want 11, and they settle at 9.
Where’s the middle with a GOP that doesn’t believe in science, or that *all* people have rights? The stakes are existential not incremental.

“Despite us not fighting now, the fight continues! For you guys! And we are with you! Not literally, of course, we’ve actually just voted for a ton of new security for ourselves but…[fist raise]”
Schumer: "However this vote turns out, this fight will and must continue. Democrats must fight."
