there's something more important at stake than policy: the career arcs of Democrats

the more Dems there are in Congress, the more committee seats they get to parcel out to Dems

even if Manchin votes with the GOP on literally every issue, as long as he continues to identify as a Dem he could increase the number of prestigious career opportunities for Dem senators. and if you think about it, isn't that really what's important? that's why you always have to vote Dem no matter what their policy stance. it's for the greater good: individual senators' future ambitions

It's a similar reason to why in NY they have the unique IDC arrangement.

Reminder that after like the third time the Confederate flag was torn down someone put a Union battle flag in its place, the flag that Californians actually fought under in the Civil War

I mean you know my background as a prosecutor...

the one where I didn't prosecute Mnuchin and also refused multiple court orders to empty the prisons so I could sell their labor to private companies.

Unfortunately I'm guessing it wasn't the kind of cop escort where you go to jail for corruption :(

school shooters are basically Voldemort anyway

complete with scared liberals who think it's scandalous and terrifying to even mention their names, a media that buries any mention of their neo-Nazi beliefs, and a government that outright ignores their connections to downright genocidal movements

Voldemort literally was an attempted school shooter via basilisk who pinned it all on the closest mixed-race minority whose life was basically destroyed as a result

hey if anyone here thinks colonialism is bad, please retweet this thread Queens DSA did about how lovely Joe Crowley is about Puerto Rico

there's a meme at the end if you get all the way there

My understanding is the next thread will be about his history of voting with republicans on pro-life legislation until rather recently

It's easier to believe that our society is perfect and that the people who point out its problems are self-interested liars than to believe that they might actually have a point. AGT.

Yeah man, when you realize that all of the horrible stuff we've done haven't been just mistakes we've stumbled into doing, but deliberate decisions that were opposed by people who just didn't have enough power to stop it... poo poo becomes pretty infuriating.
