Oh yeah, it was all Pelosi's fault. Never mind the COVID relief bills the house passed earlier that the GOP senate ignored. Matt Taibbi is full of sh*t. |
This is a most astute public comment under that piece: "Anyone who’s spent time close to their actual political processes sees firsthand what should be obvious to any distant observer: the Democrats who occupy office, and the paymasters who own those Democratic politicians, loathe—loathe—the working class and the middle class. The only people who hate Democratic voters more than alt-right online trolls are probably elected and appointed Democrats and their various moneyed pimps. That’s why Democrats have spent the last thirty years aggressively (if covertly) supporting policies that intensify poverty and class division and perpetuate war, and, in the last four years, reviving the Cold War and spreading the most disgusting and obnoxious brand of racism. At some point even the most brand-loyal peasants will surely notice that, with the exception of a few well-intentioned weaklings like Bernie Sanders, Democrats are laughing their *sses off at the suffering of the working poor. Nancy Pelosi is getting the exact deal she wanted." Spot on. |
That's just the first comment, not the most astute. And it just throws out accusations without any supporting arguments based on facts or history. So, spot off. |
Yep. |

Breaking News: Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) announced late Sunday night that lawmakers have finalized an approximately $900 billion economic relief package.
“More help is on the way. Moments ago, in consultation with our committees, the four leaders of the Senate and House finalized an agreement for another major rescue package for the American people,” McConnell said. McConnell said lawmakers only have to “promptly finalize text” and “avoid any last minute obstacles.” Lawmakers have for month sought a breakthrough on economic relief legislation. This post will be updated. https://www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2020/12/20/stimulus-congress/ |
| How can ANYONE look at this situation and say, yep Democrats are the reason the bill doesn’t do enough, lol. It’s absurd. They wanted to do more, republicans said no, for 8 months. I mean... |
Because Taibbi and Greenwald are compromised Trump humpers. Blaming Democrats for a 6 month stalemate caused by Republicans is just the horseshoe theory showing itself. Morons, every single one. |
Corporate Neoliberals hate the poor unwashed masses just as much as any GOP mouth-breather.

Democrats need to get better at propaganda. Dems had an extremely generous bill passed for 6 months while McConnell did nothing. Republicans literally told Americans TO DIE.
And somehow the messaging is all about “Pelosi failed” and “neoliberal Dems”? We are living in the Upside Down where billionaire bootlickers fake-conservatives are trying to dismantle the economy. The wonders never cease. |
I mean...Nancy was ready to sign this on Weds without the $600 until Sanders + Manchin stepped in and said hell no. That’s on top of not taking the $1.9 deal in October. |
The masses know BOTH sides don't give a rats *ss about working and middle class people. |
