@JRubinBlogger Nominating a candidate that cannot win the independent vote Only leads to defeat. You can’t blame us this time, we spent five years trying to teach you math but you knew better D+I>D also D+I>R & R+I>D

@Humza343 @Arbitrarymagi I’m not sure his base that’s still with him were ever lefties. They are largely libertarians that agreed with the left on some issues and agreed with the right on others. We welcomed them into our tent and even embraced Tulsi Gabbard and now they just attack us

[Marc Bochner @NRGworkerMarc]

@OperaGeorge @Arbitrarymagi He was different then. The truth used to matter to him. Don’t be embarrassed I also used to like Rachel Maddow back in the air America days and into the early days of MSNBC. We can’t help it if they change or sell out. All we can do is recognize it and move on

@ssimilated @Arbitrarymagi Marc Maron is funny, Jimmy Dore sort of used to be before he became a bitter jaded D bag and started courting right wing lunatics for money

[Marc Bochner @NRGworkerMarc]

@ScottGWrites @Arbitrarymagi Spot on. It’s largely the libertarians that clung to Tulsi that have veered off into crazy town and are often now indistinguishable from the Maga cult

[Marc Bochner @NRGworkerMarc]

@KathyNick10 @Arbitrarymagi And if you don’t like the criticism of the toxic cesspool the Jimmy Dore show has become then don’t read it. But Dore not being funny anymore is the least of our problems, his intentional spreading of harmful falsehoods is relevant and dangerous

@BillClinton @finneyk @ClintonFdn If I go anywhere near Bill Clinton it’s to protest. He stole the working class party and turned it into the corporate/ Reagan party. He should never be forgiven for that, and is his legacy of creating the rise of the extreme left once Democrats filled the Republicans policy space

[Marc Bochner @NRGworkerMarc]

@patinarawks @Lukarule @krystalball The extreme left is no longer the far left. They are former lefties that used to fight for things and policy, but now use that same energy fighting former allies for not being their definition of perfect or even for acknowledging that negotiating is part of the process

[Marc Bochner @NRGworkerMarc]

@Lukarule @krystalball Socialism doesn’t preclude people from getting stuff. A socialist champion fights for other people to also have stuff. You are conflating social activism with a cult or commune

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

So let me get this straight: Amazon just posted record first-quarter profits — tripling what it made a year ago — but still can't afford to provide paid sick leave and hazard pay for thousands of warehouse workers?

[Marc Bochner @NRGworkerMarc]

@Lesdoggg Leslie they’re talking about allergies. Like a peanut allergy. Or how some people are allergic to penicillin. That’s why they ask you upfront and why they have you wait 15 to 20 minutes before they let you go because they have a treatment if you have an allergic reaction

[Marc Bochner @NRGworkerMarc]

@davidsirota @WalkerBragman My concern is that even if they expand to $50k they’re still going to leave many millions of middle-class borrowers out. Last I heard debt from trade school, online colleges & career centered graduate programs are still exempt because they are mostly private institutions.

[Marc Bochner @NRGworkerMarc]

@vote4ourplanet They start with that because they’re lying. They think it gives them a pass for the total lack of understanding of anything the left does or says

[Marc Bochner @NRGworkerMarc]

@brooklynnygirl Even harder knowing that the guy who keeps setting him up for those transformative victories should have been the one in the White House instead but was twice cheated by that same Reagan wing of the party

[Marc Bochner @NRGworkerMarc]

@brooklynnygirl of course it’s rough watching the guy who’s been a Reagan Democrat for 40 years do a decent job on the Covid bill which could’ve been better and then pretend he’s an FDR Lefty as he strips most everything progressive out of legislation that could have been transformative

[Marc Bochner @NRGworkerMarc]

@gamboholics @JoeBiden let me guess, you got yours when the American dream was still alive and people were paid a living wage. And now you have nothing but resentment for people who are struggling in the rigged economy

[Marc Bochner @NRGworkerMarc]

@JoeBiden It’s so weird hearing Biden who spent his entire career being a corporately owned Reagan Democrat acknowledge how important the middle class is even though he has done a little if anything to build or support that middle class. Even dragging him reluctantly left gets only crumbs

[Marc Bochner @NRGworkerMarc]

@peterdaou It depends on the long-term efficacy of the vaccinations and whether the people refusing to vaccinate or wear masks end up creating mutations that bypasses the vaccination and then we start over

[Pastor Ben @BenjaminPDixon]

He had a really bad day? HE HAD A BAD DAY?

The actual fuck kind of day do you think the eight people -- mostly Asian women-- and their families are having

[Watchdog @demswatchdog]

narrator: he did not raise the minimum wage.

[Pramila Jayapal @PramilaJayapal]

Two-thirds of Americans want a $15 minimum wage: Democrats, Independents, and even Republicans.

We must listen to them and deliver 32 million workers the long overdue raise they deserve.
