Philadelphian, lifelong Democrat, LGBTQ, proud of my city  , thrilled to claim Joe Biden as our president from Pennsylvania . I've been waiting for our first female VP Kamala Harris since I got to stay up past my bedtime to watch Geraldine Ferraro debate George Bush.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon on what kind of #COVID19 stimulus each party wants:

Democrats (House): restaurant relief for small businesses like your corner bistro or neighborhood pizza place

Republicans (Senate): tax breaks for two-martini lunches

Republicans encourage client lunches in a pandemic?! In my city, you can only dine outdoors right now and only with your own household. Bring the relief to keep our restaurants afloat until people are vaccinated!

As usual, Democrats want to help everyone and Republicans just want to help themselves.

McConnell needs to preserve his Senate majority and will approve a package, if only to take the wind out of the Democrats' sails in the Georgia Senate run-off. If he saves his majority, he will revert to form and block any new spending.

Opinion | Why are Republicans moving toward a stimulus compromise? Here’s a clue.

Red states are facing some of the worst fiscal crunches.

@TonyStark Social democracy is responsible for every common good.

GOP brainwashing has turned people against themselves.

1. Too many people don't get the connection between SOCIAL Security, Medicare, highways, dams, airports, roads, fire departments (things that they like) and the social democracy that it takes to run those programs.

2. The republican party has turned into a cult. Hysteria is the theme and socialism is one of the dog whistle buzzwords.

Why Republicans are resorting to anti-socialism hysteria - conservatives will say anything to justify backing a racist, loony president:

Ali Velshi on the maxim that the USA only has one president at a time: "It's clear that we have one president. It's just not the man in the White House." There is a reason I watch MSNBC all the time.
@YinzPittsburghers Whole states have voted by mail for years. Everyone knows that. Republicans use mail voting.

It shouldn't take a court case for these 2 Republicans, one a House member, to know that mail-in voting is indeed constitutional.
