Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

Jen Kirkman has deleted approx 95% of the Bernie Russia tweets

I'm assuming it's a Trump-esque scenario where she's just sort of typing whatever comes into her head and then someone who works for her has to go back and delete everything later, her page is mostly just regular self-promotion stuff now with a few extremely odd exceptions

This is super fitting though

https://twitter.com/JenKirkman/status/890943560362504192

I think we just saw this performance play out in real time

e: Trump doesn't have anyone cleaning up his tweets after him but that would be a good idea on their part

e2: I'm aware in retrospect that this post is the equivalent of a "wow, that site really IS something awful!!! :razz:" joke, but dammit it had to be said

Many commenters believe its too early for anyone to declare for 2020. I say its past time. What Democrats and the Country needs are common sense, real world plans to truly make America great. Trump's administration and the Republican party demonstrate their incompetence daily. Dems don't need to pour oil on that fire, its doing quite well on its own. Let the adults in the room come forward.

also, even though the Democrats have no such rule, they must be equally partisan, because the truth is in the middle and both sides are bad.

An exhibit of bipartisanship in my Nashville, Tennessee district:

Wikipedia posted:

A perception has arisen among some observers that the 5th could easily support a more liberal Democrat than Cooper due to the influx of culturally liberal white-collar workers in the music and publishing industries and the large number of colleges in the area.[citation needed] Although the 5th is only a marginally Democratic district on paper at D+5,[citation needed] more than two-thirds of its vote is cast in Nashville/Davidson County, which has double the population of the rest of the district combined.[citation needed] However, Cooper has seldom if ever faced any significant challenge to his ideological left, or even threats thereof, given the historical strength of the Davidson County organization.[citation needed] A more recent reason for Cooper's clout among voters, though, is the control of the state legislature by Republicans, who might divide the district in the future, or merely threaten to do so, to thwart any possibility of a nationally aligned liberal taking the seat (see above).[citation needed] Those fears work strongly in Cooper's favor, in addition to his nearly lifelong connections with establishment figures in Tennessee, and will probably continue to do so in the near future.[citation needed]

...

Rep. Jim Cooper was ranked as the 20th most bipartisan member of the U.S. House of Representatives during the 114th United States Congress (and the most bipartisan member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Tennessee) in the Bipartisan Index created by The Lugar Center and the McCourt School of Public Policy that ranks members of the United States Congress by their degree of bipartisanship (by measuring the frequency each member's bills attract co-sponsors from the opposite party and each member's co-sponsorship of bills by members of the opposite party).[36]

I see. But why doesn't cloture matter for this due do technicalities?

They were going to use budget reconciliation to "repeal-and-replace" the ACA. Budget reconciliation lets you pass things as a simple majority under the guise of it being a budgetary measure, provided the law is under some budgetary constraints (primarily that it does not increase the deficit).

punk rebel ecks posted:

Why didn't Dems use the same technicalities back in 2009?

They did, and they didn't.

The Affordable Care Act was passed with a 60-vote filibuster-proof Dem majority.

The "Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010", which made a bunch of amendments to the ACA, was passed via budget reconciliation (because Ted Kennedy died in the intervening period, breaking the 60-vote majority).
