you want to know one reason people are losing trust in the media? it’s the total inability to call things what they are some guy on YouTube: “wow this is the most corrupt shit I’ve ever seen” the Times: “critics say it raises appearance of impropriety” who are people going to take seriously?

I think this is unfortunately a consequence where it is actually appropriate to say #ThanksObama

I can't believe we have a Pope from Illinois. People from Chicago usually hate the Cardinals.

As a former Virginia resident, I have high confidence that they will choose the former Both Kaine and Warner are strong contenders for lowest WAR I'm the Dem Senate caucus

And Germany having done so to many such facilities over the rest of Europe

I hate saying it and don't entirely believe it, but some part of me thinks that the Bernie Sanders 2016 primary campaign was the worst thing that ever happened to Bernie Sanders' political project

Feel like this is downstream of 24-hour news networks and social media attention economy - when you are no longer space- or time-constrained, consistent answers that can be quickly summarized are less attractive than complex ones that take time to delve into

4️⃣ Realize that any Dem Senator not speaking out against their own caucus leadership at least as forcefully as their House counterparts are a part of the "vote no, hope yes" caucus, and are trying to play you for a fool 5️⃣ Primary the fuck out of all of them

💯 this The Leader, Whip, and chair of the Campaign Committee don't vote against over 75% of the caucus and keep their jobs. Those no votes were a sham - they're playing you for a fool Primary every last one of them. Make them prove they weren't complicit

Exactly 9 Senate D votes for cloture, including all of caucus leadership, and few if any of the 38 members who voted against will call on leadership to step down 🤔🤔🤔

i bet it is exactly 65535 rows for some unknowable reason my very good script (many people are saying this) runs for hours and will only export 65535 rows pls help me mr musk the woke trannies are sabotaging my genius tier efforts

Only takes 23 Senate Democrats to remove Chuck Schumer from leadership and replace him with someone willing to fight

When it comes to achieving the goal of making America a more fair, free, just, and equitable society - Joe Manchin was simultaneously a terrible impediment and the absolute GOAT If you don't understand this fact, I don't want to hear your analysis about how Dems are bad at politics
