    Elizabeth Warren just sent a scathing letter to Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin about his tax bill charade http://mojo.ly/2AhVRRN pic.twitter.com/A7A2vYwmSI

        When will Ds learn that a "scathing letter" does nothing? Learn how to really fight back. Use the techniques Rs have used against Ds, not these lame letters.

        Rs don't waste time whining to the person who is doing what they don't like, they aggressively go after public opinion, they run issue ads in non-campaign years, they go on every station that will take them, they raise holy hell. What they don't do is "go through channels".

        I agree with you--raising a ruckus--I don't know if she has gone on any stations/networks about this. (Contact her!) But her letter available publicly shows she's doing her job pursuing this. It documents his inaction & the fact GOP is voting on it blindly or hiding ugly facts.

        I'm just saying it takes more than writning harsh letters to be effective. In general, Ds play within the accepted rules & Rs don't. Over the last 30 yrs I've see Ds become wimpier & less willing to fight hard while Rs have gotten hyper-aggressive. We've got to change this.

        I agree. I'm thinking of how McConnell pushed all those nominees thru without completed paperwork & the letter a Dem produced showing HIS demands to Obama re not processing anyone without full paperwork. I think Dems are overall more honest & moral.

        I was actually thinking of the same thing re the courts. I would've like to seen Obama push through Garland in one of the ways suggested just because I knew what the Rs would do -- break every long-standing rule to pack the courts.

        Yeah, that really pissed me off. Obama tried hard to be non-partisan when he could. He wasn't appreciated and in hindsight I feel he was taken advantage of especially with what we're witnessing this year. It goes against most Dems' grain to be sly & underhanded. You read Lakoff?

        Her letter got the inspector general initiating the investigation. Wonder how this is gonna slow down the GOP's attempts to push this legislation through. More importantly, is this going to be Steve's Moochin's undoing? #Maddow #lastword

        I don't think Mnuchin is going to be swayed by a scathing letter. I doubt he gives a shit as long as he can profit. He needs CONSEQUENCES.

        Analysis is for determining facts or truth. He's not interested in either. Why would you want the man to waste his time.

        So Treasury hasn’t/can’t perform the analysis of the tax bill’s impact, which means no one really knows what’s in the bill or what the hell it will do to the economy. Good one.
