Neither of these games of chicken would be as fraught if Democrats were united.

“The unconscionable growth in billionaire wealth through the misery of the pandemic is the clearest case I can imagine for the progressive tax reform working its way through Congress.”

“While you’re quibbling over who you want to exclude, people are suffering. SEND THE CHECKS.”

“The United States government should be responding to the needs, to the desperation, of families in our country at this time.”

“A 6-3 majority on the court is basically a bomb coming at what is left of our protections against corruption in politics, against corporate money, against what is left of the Voting Rights Act.”

“The report fails to address the vital need to end the extraction, processing, and burning of fossil fuels, and instead sees a future for fossil fuels tied to the false promise of carbon capture.”

There is something seriously iffy about the Democrats that voted “nay.”
