THIS. Everyone whining about what wasn't in the bill (e.g. the $15 minimum wage) needs to take a mild sedative at take a loot at all the incredible stuff that's IN the bill. Stop complaining that they forgot to put the cherry on top of your free ice cream sundae.

"Republicans suck!" I read it twice on the Innertubez so it must be true. Anything you read twice is true.

There is no bigger advocate for increasing the minimum wage than me but putting it in that bill was a horeseshit move by the House

Gonna be honest:

1. I *genuinely hope* that the Biden/Harris administration "fail" at "bipartisanship" - because "bipartisanship" is a fucking scam.

"Bipartisanship" basically means "Republicans throw a tantrum, and Democrats give in."

Obama tried to be "bipartisan" - and the result as the Teabaggers and "Birther" bullshit.

2. I genuinely hope Democrats and "independents" stay centered on the overarching goal: *beating the shit* out of Republicans, and rendering them *impotent* - for at least the next 16-20 years.

AT EVERY LEVEL, EVERY election-cycle.

NOT just every 4 (or 8) years - but *everywhere*.

We need to ensure a situation where "republican" = "unelectable" (including any so-called "NeverTrump" or "moderate" or blah-blah-blah bullshit artists). We need to (at least implicitly - if not explicitly) regard ALL Republicans as *delusional* at best, and more likely *vicious*:

Damn good article which sums up this whole thing:

Fuck 'em. Their ideological forebears made a literal *deal with the devil* with the whole "Southern Strategy" and "religious right" thing, and they need to goddamned well *pay* for having done so.

"Qanon" is part of that payment.

The "Republican Party" needs to be *actively quarantined* - prevented from any attempt to "Govern" - until - and unless - they get their shit together, and stop yawping about the (nonexistent) genitals of a *plastic toy potato*!

Fuck "Bipartisanship".

Sarah Palin, Devin Nunes, Loui Gomert etc. They aren’t quite self aware, I would think
