facially i'm unimpressed bc her acolytes could just be wonks or true believers and there's no way to tell until they do (or don't) do anything.

I think Katie Porter is a true believing wonk. She's the only acolyte of Warren's I know off the top
of my head.

The thing I liked about Warren is simply that she seems (I'm sure cons disagree) to be on the
side of regular folks. I hope they can figure out a way to do more good things. We're off to
a fair start.

BTW, what's up with N Korea? I didn't hear anything.

Oooooo I’m sure the US is shaking in their boots. Looks like Kim wants attention again.

Still can't believe Fox News was calling for Biden to kill his dog. Savages.

Incredible statistic I just heard Matthew Dowd state on Nicole Wallace’s show

In the last 50 years there have been 1500 cases of proven voter fraud out
of over 3 Billion votes cast.

During that same 50 years, 1.5 Million have been killed as a result
of gun violence.

There really is no bottom to today's GOP.
It turns out it is the House - no real surprises in the list.

I should probably check some places like FairFight for more information but I
think it's time to start a letter writing campaign to major corps that are still
donating to the sedition/suppression/authoritarian party to let them know
that their behavior is noted and will impact my future purchasing decisions.
Home Depot, I'm talking to you (among other).

I’m sure this will endear her to the Bernie Bros.....

Which is weird because Bernie and Biden are working quite well together. Purity test? I just don't get it.


Lol I was being facetious. I think that Bernie, Biden, Warren etc have all worked well together thus far. There hasn’t been any Democratic infighting, just a lot of healthy debate and disagreements. I know that Bernie supporters dislike Warren for some strange reason because they believe she lied about Bernie during the primary but here’s the thing Warren is going about making change in the right way. It’s one thing to take the “activist” approach and just be vocal in public, but real change comes from being inside the institutions and being part of the policy making process.

I’m probably a bit jaded by the left wing clowns that I see on Twitter posting hot takes for attention.

This "should" be a scandal of Watergate proportions, but the Dems are too-weak (as-usual) to do anything about it
