Oh what a fucking shock he has a history of hatred of women. Until we talk about how the commonality not only is about guns but about our culture’s hatred of women and the seriousness of harassment and abuse of women, this won’t stop. Goddamn I hate this country so much. And if you’re a piece of shit that’s going to…

This is the natural conclusion to a society that tells you to look after yourself or suffer the consequences. We may worship “first responders” because they put others before themselves but it’s ultimately superficial.

Fine.

I just wish those vacuous motherfuckers would get raptured already.  

Just become an evangelical domionist. Then you’ll be psyched at all the awful shit you’ll be able to get away with

Won’t matter. The Republicans nuked the filibuster for SCOTUS nominees last year with Gorsuch. Kennedy knows that, which is why he’s retiring now. He WANTS a conservative replacement and he knows a vengeful Senate majority for Democrats post November could prevent that for the entirety of Trump’s remaining time in…

uummm...it amazes me how uninformed publicly educated kids are these days. There’s a huge difference between this and the Garland situation. Republicans were and are still the M-A-J-O-R-I-T-Y in the Senate. That is the body responsible for giving their blessing on a nominee. Now try to follow this.....with…

Yup. It’s funny how the FBI employees are not allowed to like a political candidate (over another) and yet we accept that the members of the highest court in the land are picked (and will make legal decisions) based on their allegiance to one political party (and NOT the law!).

He didn’t want to hold out. This is what he wanted.

Civil liberties were nice while they lasted. 

You know, this is really making me consider whether I should try to work on a campaign again. If I can manage it with my health issues I’m leaning towards trying. 

I’m a staunch supporter of unions. I’ve been a teamster, a laborer, part of the BCT and the AFL-CIO at various times in my life. It’s insane to think that unions are a predicate for the demise of the working class.

This is premium White Womaning. The second Ocasio-Cortez won she was thinking about gloating.

Yeah, she definitely had to get that jab in at Joy Ann Reid for having the gall to *checks notes* not think a candidate everyone considered a long shot was going to win and thus admitting she was unprepared and had to do more research to understand who this person she was previously mostly unaware of was.

but his argument is aligned with yours and matters -

What’s this? A white woman taking a moment away from a person of color in order to “I told you so” some of the people she doesn’t like on Twitter, and instead of taking the broad lessons from Ocasio-Cortez’ win and how it can be applied moving forward with other candidates, in a roundabout way bragging that she knew…

People like racism here.

It is incomprehensible to me how the right wing in the US has managed to make working-class people vote against the labor movement. I will never get this.

“Last night, Ocasio-Cortez Dave Brat showed the path forward for Democrats Republicans. It won’t be found through the Paneras of America the Inner Cities of America and in peeling off disaffected GOP Democratic voters, but by engaging the left’s right’s natural constituencies—workers, people of color, immigrants, and…

She very nicely bridges that perceived weakness in Sanders’s politics, who was strong on progressive economic ideas but often failed to connect with minority voters because of a concern about playing so-called identity politics that comes when you directly appeal to the concerns of the people who make up a strong…
