Joe Biden is a rapist. If that's purity testing, sorry, I'm all for it

Bernie is gonna end up with the most votes and most delegates.
They are totally going to try and fuck him at a brokered convention if he doesn’t get to the majority before the convention starts, and it would probably end the Democratic party as we know it. It would certainly gift the presidency back to the current…
Bernie is the only one who can beat Trump.
It’s a primary - Obama only got 36% of New Hampshire in 2008, and that was with only three major candidates on the ticket.
It feels wild to have some hope but here I am, tearing up and having hope. The idea of everyone in my family being insured, the disability rights plan...fuck I did not want to be this invested because the disappointment is so soul crushing.
I feel like this is part of the thing that Democrats don’t understand. They think ‘we have to beat Bernie!’ And ‘Bernie can not be allowed to win’ but the people on the ground doing work, making calls, sending the texts? They are fucking passionate and they are young. They are not going anywhere so the democratic…

He delayed running in 2015 to get Warren to run; he ran after she refused to. He got a lot of momentum going but couldn’t close. He then campaigned for Hillary, including in at least one swing state that she herself didn’t go to. He did 28 more events for her than she did for Obama.
Broaddrick was happy to tell her story back in the day, why would that change now, with or without the presence of Farrow?
I guess defending Bill “Epstein-associated” Clinton against sexual assault and rape allegations should not be the hill one is willing to die on. Fuck these monsters (or maybe don't).
“not all boomers”
Every person I met doing envelope stuffing at DSA immeditately after Trump’s election said they were there because of Chapo, and every person I know who actually works directly for unions doing labor organizing likes Chapo, but ymmv.
Finally, the big chance for my start-up knazi.com to really get off the ground!
That the four women were from the Global South was not a coincidence. Researchers Katrina Karkazis and Rebecca Jordan-Young noted in a paperon the topic that public information, when gathered, all shows that the women being investigated “are exclusively from the Global South, and all indications are that they are…
I’m not going to deny that this was a snarky piece, but the larger point is that Buttigieg’s actual policy positions have consistently taken a backseat to a more popular media narrative about him being a smart and nice man.
