Why should he have been "penalized" at all? He was stitched up by Fox and then assassinated by Gillibrand.

Love the turquoise LEGO brick. I don't think that's a color found in the LEGO universe.

It's true that the revolution won't be televised. OTOH, the counter-revolution is on every channel 24/7/365.

Don't cover her. If she has no press she will run out of steam to fundraise. She seems to think the Senate is just a Tic Toc experience.

For the record ACLI is an insurance industry lobby. Lobbyists sponsoring good clean fund and not at all expecting favorable legislation in exchange is just the way public policy rolls in the USA.

Sinema is a valuesless self-promoter, but her initial statement is not offensive. It was actually open if, after some tinkering to cover religious hospitals, the WHPA could be re-introduced if we hold the Senate and then get Collins and Murkowski and even Manchin.

Gillibrand is my senator, from a reliably blue state. Arizona is not one - it is always teetering and we could lose Kelly to the crazy. She can rage but Sinema can't.

Let's stop the purity tests on statements and photo-ops and care only about votes. Sinema is a co-sponsor of the law we want and she voted for it. That is literally all that matters here.

It might make some independents, wake the fuck up, as to their endgame. We, who pay attention to the nutter's know that is the next, they have trumpeted it for years, but most don't.

There are, but Tacos is one of us, and has been for a long time, read his comment history. Maybe not as progressive as some, but far from a Koch plant.

She does everything to piss on his legacy, then tweets that!

Yeah, but he saved my, and my husbands life, with his vote saving the ACA, even if it was a spite vote.
