"This is a mistake": House Democrats fume at David Hogg's plan to oust lawmakers
Just a moment...
Democratic National Committee vice chair David Hogg's plan to spend $20 million to primary older Democratic incumbents in Congress has sparked intense anger from some lawmakers.
You're viewing a single thread.
Mistake for who? Not a mistake for me, not a mistake tactically considering the policy and popularity polling, not a mistake when you consider that these people have been suppressing popular and well polling progressive policies and candidates for decades and still managed to lose the presidency and both houses to a goddamn moron…
All of this shit, all of these “reasons” they list in opposition to Hogg’s initiative, they are all bullshit. Bullshit and deflections and distractions from the fact that they are concerned exclusively about the bottom line for their wealthy benefactors, and about their own as well. The irony that is not lost on anyone is that they are the assholes who did this to us in the first place, and would you look at that, Donald Trump is about to hand them a tax cut.
They're really upset about losing their expense accounts. Sure they get a salary, but every single one of them has an expense account that dwarfs their salary.
Both sides, the old guard is useless but he's massively anti 2A, which is also not helpful right now.
Na the fascists are also going to need to get rid of the 2A soon. They don't need headlines like "ICE impersonator shot by citizen while conducting an extra judicial abduction"
You can't put that genie back in the bottle on any reasonable time scale, there's more guns than people in the US, and half of them are basically invisible to authorities.
i know right. Where my no step snek libertarians in the face of tyranny tho?
Begging for government contracts.

How convenient!
Only a fool would willingly disarm with fascist trying to take absolute power
Only a fool would be relying on registered firearms with fascists trying to take absolute power.
Sure. It's not because he's trying to push the party to the left. It's because the party has suddenly come around to being single-issue voters who agree with republicans on yet another issue, this time guns.
Before that, it was genocide, immigration, and trans people. What will we agree with republicans on next?
