The establishment Dems and Republicans knew that the 1/6 riots were coming. The capitol police, almost certainly on orders, allowed the rioters into the capitol (as has been observed on video) to make this seem more dangerous than it actually was, giving the Dems, Republicans, and their allies in Tech and the Media pretext to enact Patriot Act 2.0 and purge Trump supporters, the actual Left, and another other opponents of the American political establishment.

AOC is going along with this because she is and always has been part of the establishment. She was a Kennedy intern. Her dispute with Pelosi is because she unseated her chosen heir (i.e. she didn't wait her turn), not because of policy differences. She is the new sheepdog for the youth left in the US, and she will be there sheepdogging along for a long time to come.

I think the capitol police allowed the rioters into the capitol because like all police in America they are an instrument of white supremacy. I think the 1/6 riot was plenty dangerous. Any legislator captured would have been murdered by the mob.

It's irritating that it will be used as a pretext for another Patriot Act because everything about the 1/6 riots was already illegal in many ways. The problem is that it was a white supremacist insurrection and there's no effective law enforcement mechanism against white supremacy in America.

I wonder what happened to her on 1/6 that she's not saying for 'national security reasons' or whatever. It's been alluded to that she feared she was about to be killed, but she's just what, keeping it quiet on the orders of pelosi? Is it an arrow in the quiver? Really the democrats are going to sit on this so long all the republicans are gonna skate

I mean we're also talking about, to my knowledge, a perfectly healthy 31 year old who was extremely comfortable jumping the line for a covid vaccination despite being in perhaps the most not-at-risk group possible. I don't think it has to be anything additional at all.

The Biden administration is going to reopen the health insurance marketplace and spend big on advertising to try and get people to sign up as their main strategy to improve healthcare during the pandemic just beyond parody again

especially bc those who lost jobs, or who moved, or who changed family status have always been allowed to purchase crap plans outside of open enrollment.

this is targeted toward the longterm unemployed who spurned getting a crap plan in november, as if they can afford a crap plan several months later.

the democrats' vision of problem solving is to create a new problem that doesn't actually solve the original problem and thus distract you from how hosed the problem is and how relatively simple it is to actually solve.

problem: people can't get healthcare and are being bankrupted when they try to get it

solution: make buying health insurance a fulltime job, which can still bankrupt you. brag about people having health insurance they can't use instead of instituting a single payer system or a national health service.

lmao:

quote:

Shares of health insurers and hospitals rose following the announcement, with Anthem Inc., Cigna Corp., and Centene Corp. up more than 3% at 2:00 p.m. in New York, out-pacing the broader market.

***

Democrats, the health insurance industry and advocates for the Affordable Care Act had repeatedly asked the Trump administration over the past several months to reopen HealthCare.gov enrollment, which is typically restricted to a few weeks in the fall. They were refused.

The Trump administration argued that people who lost their coverage in the pandemic could sign up for Obamacare plans using individual special enrollment periods. Requests for special enrollment have spiked, but the process is more complicated than open enrollment because it requires applicants to prove their eligibility. It’s also not available to people who’ve been uninsured for an extended period of time.

The new enrollment period Biden is creating will be available to “Americans that need health care coverage,” according to the statement, which did not say whether there would be restrictions.

America’s Health Insurance Plans, the trade group for health insurers, welcomed the announcement. The executive order will “create more pathways for Americans to obtain coverage that is so essential to their health, well-being and peace of mind,” AHIP Chief Executive Officer Matt Eyles said in a news release.

I mean his video endorsing Biden was about all the ways he'd be terrible and he's been pretty clear-eyed on that front, so forgive me if I don't really get anything from rubbing his nose in it? I don't think any of this comes as a surprise.

It's less than he thought Biden was good or even an improvement than he bought into the mass delusion that 4 more years Trump was a much bigger threat than he turned out to be.

it’s no different from Bernie endorsing Biden- maybe they did it out of fear of Trump, but the end result was the same: they endorsed the senile austerity rapist.

a sheepdog is still a sheepdog, even if they cover themselves in disclaimers and explanations about the lesser evil, and we can (and should!) give them poo poo every day of the next 4 years while Rapey Joe (who they willingly endorsed! nobody forced them!) kills millions and continues throwing infants in the dog cages he built.
