He is absolutely right.
If we are going to deploy our young men and women in uniform to Syria to fight and potentially give their life for some supposed cause, shouldn’t we as their elected representatives at least debate the merits of sending them there? responsiblestatecraft.org/pu…

Someone who knows nothing about books or book publishing - or me, for that matter - created a ridiculous narrative and people ran with it like it's gospel truth.

That’s the best we can do..? Ask that they disclose their prices?? This is what happens when a population has been trained to expect too little. The days of Big Pharma price gauging the American people should come to an end completely. We need #MedicareForAll
Americans deserve to know the price of Rx drugs upfront rather than waiting for a moment of truth at the pharmacy counter. @ChuckGrassley & I are requesting unanimous consent to pass our bipar bill to require Big Pharma to disclose drug prices in TV ads. nitter.vloup.ch/i/broadcasts/1jM…

The idea that because Biden beat him once then he’s the one to beat him again is like saying to an actor that since you won the Oscar last year of course you’ll win it again this year. IT’S A DIFFERENT MOVIE THIS YEAR.
And nowhere in the Constitution is there some special assignation given to incumbency . When Eugene McCarthy challenged Lyndon Johnson, no one thought he “shouldn’t!” We just thought that was democracy.

It’s not logical to conclude that because he beat him in 2020 he’s necessarily the best one to beat him in 2024. (And thinking beyond stale narratives IS what I do best)

If democracy is in jeopardy - and I agree it is - then we should turn to more democracy as the cure. Otherwise, what are you protecting? If you’re so intent on defeating Trump, perhaps consider hearing other options than an increasingly unpopular President.

Absolutely not. Less regulation means more permission for unfettered corporate forces to do whatever they want to do. That’s why corporate lobbyist prowl the halls of Congress every hour of every day.

When I was young, Eugene, McCarthy, and Bobby Kennedy Sr. both challenged Lyndon Johnson. No one saw that as weird; we saw it as democracy. The current narrative of “You can’t run against him, he’s an incumbent!” is just a DNC concocted PR narrative meant to manipulate people.

1) I’m a Roosevelt Democrat.
2) As obscenely expensive as it is to get on the ballots as a Democrat, as an independent it’s almost impossible.

An interviewer asked me today if I’m running in order to influence Biden. I have no illusions I can influence Biden, but I’m hoping to influence millions of people ready to rise up and push back against the economic royalism of Big Corporate rule.

In the 1960s, we passed the Voting Rights Act to protect the right of all Americans to vote. Forces in this country have been working ever since to gut the act, and if they get their way they’re finally going to succeed. theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv…
