      This is a very serious critique of the bailout. I don't know if there is any politically feasible way to stop it at this point but I do want to hear Sanders, Warren and others take up this critique and give make it known. There will have to be reckoning, soon.https://twitter.com/ddayen/status/1242942272586555392 …

      Bernie will almost certainly vote in support of the bailout package (as long as it has unemployment provisions). Warren hasn't weighed in. I think there might be some value in a progressive laying down a marker on how bad parts of it are -- pure crony capitalism.

          Warren worked to get anything for employees and the working people. The "expand unemployment insurance" part is probably Sanders idea. This is probably the best we get, bah!

          It's a kiss-the-ring moment. Piggybacking on external terror to consolidate power in a dominant oligarchy. I guess the long game will be to try to instill a degree of humanity in the top layer, starting with some very unpromising material.

          Seems like Warren's low profile as of late says more than her not weighing in.
