I don’t ever wanna hear “vote like your life depends on it.” I have, my whole life. These people need to govern like our lives depend on it. We already voted for them. They need to do the work. Especially on a federal level, where congressmen and senators get paid $15k per month.
“We don’t need nuclear, angry people speaking at events!”
People are dying due to lacking healthcare, jobs, living wages, & freedom of speech is becoming becoming non-existent while the police state widens.
YES. YES. WE ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY DO NEED NUCLEAR. Anything less won’t do.
Republicans got in control and quickly cut taxes on the rich to the lowest rate in a century.
Democrats got in control and quickly vowed to prosecute whoever leaked the records showing billionaires pay no taxes.
Democrats preached “believe women” until Biden and Cuomo were accused.
They were against kids in cages until Biden did it.
And opposed bombing Syria until Biden did it.
Democrats abandon their values the moment that upholding them would expose and implicate party leadership.
There is nothing “big or bold” about the Democrats Covid package.
They promised $600 expanded unemployment, but scaled it back to $400.
They promised $2000 checks, but scaled them back to $1400 checks.
Big and bold would be $2000 *monthly* relief checks and Medicare for All.
With Democrats in control of the Senate, we must keep faith with the working families of this country. Promises made must be kept. That means not only the $2,000 direct payment, but an aggressive agenda that recognizes the economic desperation facing so many Americans.
You’re a sexist if you criticize the defense contractor lobbyists Biden seeks to appoint, a racist if you oppose tech and bank lobbyists Dems are bringing into power. Thats the point of identity pol— a weapon to silence dissent and rebrand the ruling class as untouchable.
Hi @JoeBiden, this is the system you’re protecting by refusing to back universal healthcare, but I get it. Health insurance industry money is more important to Dems than stress and tears and the health of regular people
Despite his abject failure to deliver Ohio for Biden & the fact that the Republican defection never materialized, Kasich is still pushing Dems to oppose progressive policies/principles & instead follow him to the Republican platform. MSM @CNNPolitics This is division, not unity.
Biden lost in places where legalizing cannabis, raising the minimum wage, etc initiatives won, abandoning them ostensibly in order to chase Suburban Republicans who didn't vote for him anyway. A decision that will continue to be treated as a sign of pragmatism and maturity.
