Everyone understands all this, BUT you’re still not addressing the main issue: It is the Houses’ JOB to impeach when the President has committed an impeachable offense (ie a crime like obstruction of justice). If they can’t do their job then they shouldn’t be in office. Setting a precedent that the President can…

Okay BUT

Impeachment proceedings would be a good thing, no? It doesn’t necessarily have to end with the Dems successfully impeaching him so much as just beginning the process and having constant hearings?

You impeach Trump not because you think the Republicans in the Senate will vote for it, but because that is literally their job. You put all the evidence on the table and show the public what occurred. You don’t just let the President commit crimes and shrug.

small quibble but its important.  You are incorrect to say profit.  That 15% is revenue, the banks still have expenses to adjust for before they realize any profit.

That’s unlikely. If this becomes the law of the land, CC companies will just have to get used to the new normal (which is actually a return to how it used to be). There will still be billions to be made with a top rate of 15%.

To be fair, Harris is very ‘centrist’ in her views on law enforcement, which is a particular issue for progressives.

The real listen is

I posted this over on Jezebel, but yeah, Barr perjured himself before Congress.

...and lose yet again.

unfort, no matter who he endorses, they’re still gonna lose.

So the only Black women worth listening to are the ones who say what you want to hear.

Hey Bernie, Love ya man. But as a Black male, let me give you some advice.

Isn’t it funny that Joe Biden announced his candidacy after this event was over? It’s like he didn’t want to have to go on stage and answer for his pro-segregationist, tough-on-crime, Anita Hill past.

There is an argument to be made about suppressing the right to vote for people currently in jails and prisons: we don’t ever accord rights absolutely, and they are subject to reasonable restriction (take note, gun nuts). Even First Amendment rights are frequently subject to time, place and manner restrictions (take…

I’m always pro-union.

Officially?  No.  But you sure as hell slant your coverage to show your true intentions don’t you?  It isn’t difficult to read between the lines.

Education. Quite a lot of people struggle with finances because they have very little education or practical experience in that area. Schools teach math not money.
