“The extreme left is taking over” WHERE. In Texas, Republicans passed a law allowing rapists to sue their victims for getting an abortion. Can anyone name a “far left” policy that extreme implemented anywhere? We can’t even get our party to import cheaper RXs from Canada. foh

I guess it must work, but "Let me explain, Andy" does not seem like a good fundraising email subject line to me.
The death penalty is immoral, and you definitely can't call yourself "pro-life" if you support it.
Lion King reviews are not looking good. Can someone just tell me if Timon and Pumbaa are canonically a couple in this version?

I was in prison and you said “you should stop breaking the law”
The logic people give for not having a second Brexit referendum is just so absurd.
Personally, I care less about Trump paying for all his crimes than I do about the GOP facing some sort of consequences. I wish we had a conservative party in this country that was a worthy opposition and not what we have now.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Replying to @AOC
He can stay, he can go. He can be impeached, or voted out in 2020. But removing Trump will not remove the infrastructure of an entire party that embraced him; the dark money that funded him; the online radicalization that drummed his army; nor the racism he amplified+reanimated.

Here's Laura Ingraham displaying my face to 2.5 million viewers and calling me a "little journo-terrorist." I am 29. I have no full-time job. I am teaching a single course, for $7k, as an adjunct. This is insane. And irresponsible. It is incitement. It is not okay.

So if I’m understanding correctly: Big Government Overreach = Schools, roads, medicine, not being shot Not Big Government Overreach = Saying which adults can’t get married, telling you your gender, letting police officers kill you for no reason, war Got it. Thanks, @GOP!

You read a lot of hand-wringing articles about how city residents look down on rural america but Republican rhetoric is just a steady stream of contempt for Americans who live in cities with no comparable response from pols who represent those cities xitter.cf/MollyBeck/status/11051…

WI GOP exec director: "No city in America has stronger ties to socialism than Milwaukee ... And with the rise of Bernie Sanders and the embrace of socialism by its newest leaders, the American left has come full circle. It’s only fitting the Democrats would come to Milwaukee.”

One of the things that is hurtful about the extent to which reprimand is sought of Ilhan is that no one seeks this level of reprimand when members make statements about Latinx + other communities (during the shutdown, a GOP member yelled “Go back to Puerto Rico!” on the floor).

The GOP under Trump has run roughshod over our norms and values. They've kidnapped babies from breastfeeding mothers. They've stolen health care from the sick to enrich oligarchs. They pollute our air and water. But we're supposed to believe @IlhanMN and @AOC are the problem?

The ideology that goes "tick tick boom" goes from bombing the Oklahoma City Federal Building to sitting in the Oval Office.

I’m pretty heartbroken that there isn’t more denunciation of this outward and blatant expression of bigotry and Islamophobia by a state party. IMO those who stood up against anti-Semitism a few weeks ago should also be calling out the Islamophobia here, too.

I feel like I shouldn't obsess over this, but: The President thinks we should all trust Kim Jong Un, but that the free press is the enemy of the people.

I know this President should go to jail, but I want to understand more what to demand as restorative justice for all the people hurt by this administration.
