After the Dobbs decision, peaceful protests were held outside the homes of Supreme Court Justices and the GOP went nuts causing the Dems to trip all over themselves to provide additional security for the court. Is it really too much to ask that the Dem Leadership including the President denounce threats to judges, prosecutors and grand jurors and demand that Republicans in Congress and running for President join them in calling this out? The silence just normalizes right wing violence again.

@edgeoforever I don’t mean to ascribe this to you personally, but the party does events like the joint appearance with McConnell at a bridge in Kentucky because the media love by bipartisanship. But doesn’t anyone think that Biden will win Ohio or KY? Does anyone outside of those states care? Biden and D’s need to hype Inflation Reduction weekly. Repetition builds narratives.
@edgeoforever I’ve seen dozens of events around infrastructure. I’ve seen nothing comprable with the Inflation Reduction Act. The whole party should be bragging about it non stop, even if the national media coverage is bad, local coverage will be helpful
@GoAskAlice @TonyStark @alfredo_liberal Connor Lamb’s merits aside, it renders the term progressive meaningless to apply it to proud centrist member of the Blue Dog Coalition who opposed Pelosi for speaker.
I don’t know, instead of blathering about bipartisan bridges and roads that move exactly zero vote, how about taking credit for accomplishments that really matter to voters? #biden #inflation #democrats https://www.nytimes.com/live/2023/05/10/business/cpi-inflation-fed/inflation-economy-fed?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare
@sashafox another item to file under what does and doesn’t outrage the “good people”.
@sashafox I would’ve thought choking a man to death would be a behavior with consequences.
@HelloRob feel the same way but also he has a history of having one good and one bad half, though that was horrible. He is rushing again.
@mergy “no fouls called on Sac”, fixed it for you
Don’t really understand why Biden doesn’t undermine McCarthy by inviting some house republicans to the White House for 1-1s about the debt ceiling.
