Focusing just on "Nancy Pelosi" allows us to conveniently overlook that the entire party as an institution is unsalvageable.
The sooner we admit it, the better.
Criticizing Nancy Pelosi is understandable, but misses the point entirely.
The Democratic Party exists to carry water for the rich and powerful.
If Pelosi retired tomorrow, we'd be in the same situation.
The Democratic Party has a different name than the Republican Party but we really just have one party with a far right wing and a moderate right wing. They may as well be two wings of the same party.
New post on the ChicagoMPP blog.
"Any success of the Republican Party is a failure of the Democratic Party."
The Democrats always capitulate, regardless of majority or mandate.

Russia Today is afraid that @maddow spoke the truth when she said we have to go back to the 1700s to find a time when a foreign power intervened in our elections like Russia did in 2016. Every American should shed tears of outrage at what the Russians did to our democracy.

Per new hiring standards DCCC won't contract with or recommend to House campaign any political firm that works against a sitting member. That's a stark financial deterrent
