1/ Everything that’s happening was inevitable given the basic heartlessness now entrenched within our economic and political system. While that heartlessness reaches an apex in Trump, it has been there for a long time. Republicans promulgated it and Democrats too often went along

3/ It’s reasonable to expect nothing but a crackdown law-and-order mentality from McConnell, but
@SpeakerPelosi and@JoeBiden could at this moment break free of their neo-liberal container, reclaim the soul of the Democratic Party, and actually make a difference. I hope they do.Show this thread -
4/ Trump is already having military units prepared to deploy to Minneapolis. If democratic party leadership doesn’t come up with a plan for bold fundamental changes it will be a huge strategic mistake. The era of politics as usual is over; need for enlightened leadership now here

Marianne, I love your faith in people but Pelosi and Biden are entrenched in this corrupt system of concentrated power. They have already proven they would rather let people suffer and die than give up their power.

It's important to challenge them to do the right thing, and hold them accountable if/when they don't.

Most of the Democrats are just as bad. They controlled the house under ObombYa, crickets on every issue that hurt our people. They care nothing about justice, just control of wealth and power!
