I'm from Biden's home town and my buddy had a traffic ticket several years ago where the judge knew Biden when they were kids. The judge, out of the blue, started complaining about Biden. He called him a bastard, a son of a bitch. He ranted about how they used to go to the dime movies together and Biden would stand up and start yelling at the screen. He said that Biden got over his speech impediment by putting pebbles in his mouth and giving speeches in his back yard. Biden cheated this guy out of all his baseball cards because they used to play flips and Biden glued all of his cards together so he couldn't lose.

Nina Turner and other members of Our Revolution were shut out of DNC, and while they were waiting around the DNC folks sent out donuts and water which is an old union busting thing. Nina brought it up and #resist types took to mocking her by putting donut emoji's in their names.

basically its an emoji for the hill people to show they're Still With Her against the racist, sexist bernie bros by celebrating an incident in which the DNC...uh...they patronizingly snubbed a black woman working for Our Revolution

Shop around for doctors! Always fucking shop for doctors. Doctors are stupid assholes. And they get by because people are cowed by their mystical bullshit quality of being able to maintain a 3.0 GPA at some Guatemalan medical college for 3 semesters. Find one that makes sense.

Lee owns, she is a long time Oakland resident with ties to the Black Panthers and a super consistent anti war record (even voting with Republicans to oppose Obama's Libya expedition). Her being speaker would be worth it just to see Fox News lose their god drat minds.

"We are voting for change. We like Alexandria's views, but unlike Bernie and his bros, she is not a misogynist and she does support other candidates. Most of the current Dems are advocating playing nice in the face of democracy crumbling. We the voters are not going along with that. We're going to take back this country. Wait and see."

It seems like there's a second split among mainstream liberals that is based around anger at Democrats focusing on civility towards Trump. Like there's three "factions" - leftists, liberals who genuinely support being vicious towards Trump/Republicans (but don't care much about positive material change)*, and liberals who care a lot about civility.
