Slowpoke! posted:Oh come on, this is a bad take. She is calling for her colleagues to impeach. The fact that she is doing it on Twitter instead of on a CNN interview or in a stump speech shouldn’t matter. Warren is one of 3-4 people with a legit shot at being president, so her saying this does matter I don't think they're saying it's not a good thing for Warren to tweet - just that it's, you know. A tweet. Not "wielding power" in any meaningful sense of the word. Democrats have been absolutely terrible at wielding power when they've had it over the past several decades, and this David Atkins doofus clearly hasn't learned anything from that.

I’m sure Warren will clearly state her case at her upcoming fundraiser hosted with Pelosi. Surely.

We're at the point where people should be tweeting calls for Pelosi's resignation rather than talking about Donny's very bad behavior that totally deserves punishment this time.

I’d be more inclined to believe Warren’s statement were in good faith if she were consistent here about reprimanding leadership since the last time this impeachment bit came up, rather than yass kweening Pelosi when Omar was under attack and reverting to the condemnation when convenient.

After the "all about the benjamins" controversy in March: Warren posted:“We have a moral duty to combat hateful ideologies in our own country and around the world--and that includes both anti-Semitism and Islamophobia. In a democracy, we can and should have an open, respectful debate about the Middle East that focuses on policy,” Warren, who is running for president in 2020, said in a statement to The Hill. After the "some people did something": Warren posted:"The President is inciting violence against a sitting Congresswoman—and an entire group of Americans based on their religion. It's disgusting. It's shameful. And any elected leader who refuses to condemn it shares responsibility for it" Elizabeth Warren (@ewarren) [I tried to embed the tweet but apparently don't know how.] Also, Omar committed the unforgivable sin of doing Politics Stuff and making nice with Pelosi after the controversies, and went on a trip to Africa with her and did photo ops. So she's just a worthless succ dem not worth defending anyway, right?

Ither posted:There are people of color who are LGBT+. If you watch the forum, you'll see some of them were on stage. Further, if you watched the clip that eke out posted, you'll see that while some people did laugh at Biden's comment, there was bigger reaction when the moderator responded "Just asking the questions people want to know" The issue is not just the lack of diversity of those at the forum, but the economic demos. I'd rather Sanders listen to some of the people who will attend the HBCU townhall he had scheduled. Gyges posted:We're at the point where people should be tweeting calls for Pelosi's resignation rather than talking about Donny's very bad behavior that totally deserves punishment this time.

Zurakara posted:Show me the lie? Obama has problems I’ve just never seen him called a malignant narcissist that personally decided to cage children, based on someone’s “friends in DC.” Also they’re using this issue about the list to say that warren is now owned by the dnc to fundraise and campaign together. But - isn’t that the point of charging for the list? Like, I think she’s probably campaigning and fundraising with Pelosi because it strictly benefits her to get people behind her who might otherwise support Biden, whether voter or core institutionalist politician.

It's Obama speaking directly on it, with photographic evidence. The reason anyone who has been paying attention doesn't trust people like Biden or anyone who plays nice with them to actually change anything is because Obama's immigration and foreign policy weren't accidents, they were explicitly decided upon by people at the very top. I have enormous respect for Julian Castro for not playing nice on that, and if I needed a second choice in the primary, he is much more likely to be it than Warren. joepinetree fucked around with this message at 20:07 on Sep 21, 2019 |

Also why does it matter why he decided to throw children in cages? I can't think of any even remotely acceptable justification for that. Nonsense posted:https://twitter.com/thomaskaplan/status/1175480811648376833 I kinda want Warren to go more in depth on which exact communities absolutely need to raise the rent by more than 3% a year. Would probably be educational.

To be clear I brought it up because I’d literally never heard this claim like this before. I’m not especially politically ignorant, it’s just impossible to keep up with every story. I’m not blindly supporting the establishment. Cerebral Bore posted:Who has said that? It was in the twitter conversation.

Judakel posted:Yes. It is a medical necessity. Anyhow I’d just like to be able to point to something specific in the bill that affirms this because I was having a conversation with a person on a different board who is currently going through that process (the hormone treatment). I know it’s been a question in the media occasionally.
