When you really decide to defend a building against a demo, it looks more like this, no? Just saying. https://t.co/dUBxouyPns

How would defeating “Trump and Senate Republicans” in Nov. make Gorsuch & Kavanaugh “pay the price” (or “hit” them)? They’d still be on the court and their rulings would still stand. That’s the problem with Schumer’s statement. You should at least address it, no? https://t.co/6FpwuCZOtR

Doesn’t the Republican Party share some blame here — it isn’t powerful enough to get some GOP candidates to drop our, or to rally support behind the strongest standard-bearers? https://t.co/xIjsJfJmQB

Seems likely the Biden insiders were annoyed when Yellen said she had some Summers’-like doubts about Biden’s big ARP stimulus. So she becomes fall guy for inflation and leaves while Biden insiders & team players stick around. Doesn’t seem promising. (Suggestion: New insiders!)

You think replacing Janet Yellen with Gina Raimondo after a mid-term shellacking is going to turn the Biden presidency around?

I don’t either.

I think Schumer probably felt that he had to deliver something special to match the anger of the Dem base at the time. He chose something a little thuggish and over the line. Don’t think he was inciting an insurrection. Still … https://t.co/9VChl0VjCK

Have the recent gains made up for the huge hit less-than-high-school workers took from 1980 to 2000? I don’t think so. [See chart in replies] https://t.co/bTRvXD2b7s

Yikes. SCOTUS justices are tenured for life. So what “price” did Schumer think they were going to “pay” for a particular decision? https://t.co/HxYujNpdgN

Traditionally Dems, especially progressives, have promoted higher turnout. But does high turnout benefit Dems in a state like CA in a big GOP year (maybe a “wave” year)? A lot of the extra voters that might turn out will be swing voters who’ve turned against Dems, no? https://t.co/eUXrQ4SIXY

The fear is that political pros will be all too happy if ballots become so formidable that voters have to turn them over to party machine– the way taxpayers now have to let H&R Block do their complicated returns. https://t.co/ufa6gDOHDE
