I have seen it, and you’re right.

This is true.

Even worse...it’s Jefferson, not Jeffrey. As in Jefferson Davis, Confederate President.

Enough of the “both sides”-ing. It’s the last thing we need right now.

I knew it was a trap when they demanded Charlotte repeal their ordinance first before they’d deign to repeal the tremendously unpopular bill.

This. It’s Obama’s pick to make, and McConnell pulled his reasoning for blocking it directly out of his asshole. They need to get it done.

No, it’s good advice...for normal times. This ain’t normal. These are DEFINITELY times that call for a dig-a-hole-to-hell-and-shove-them-in type of solution.

EVERYBODY WOULD. Like DAMN IT, guys, FIGHT BACK.

A recess appointment would last for a year I believe. What I described would be for life.

As I understand, there might be a chance to appoint Garland on January 3. The old term expires at noon and the incoming class has to get sworn in. In the meantime, the Senate would consist of 66 Senators; Dem majority. Biden recognizes Durbin as Majority Leader, Durbin motions to confirm Garland, simple majority vote…

OK, they can stay. Lawrence O’Donnell too. But the rest of them can fall off a cliff.

Every single cabinet appointment has been a person who is AGAINST that particular department.

I’d be good with replacing most of the MSNBC lineup with Joy Reid

this. Remember how he was so excited about the housing market crash because he got cheap real estate out of it?

Yeah, she’s probably seen this movie.

NC is a template. That change owes a lot to Rev. Barber and Moral Mondays; I think a nationwide movement is in order.

Well, I certainly did. And I personally will do everything in my power to ensure that the Dems know that being progressive and inclusive AND not backing down from ANY fights is the way forward. Both Schumer and Pelosi have indicated that the Republicans will have to pry the ACA and Medicare out of their cold dead…

I LIKE IT

The fact that she got about 2.7 million MORE votes than tRump did (despite being a right-win target for 25 years) should tell you that she wasn’t the problem.

The “real” GOP’s silence on the shenanigans of the incoming administration is deafening. At this point, they’re all complicit.
