“Why let [employers paying for healthcare] off the hook” is the most hardcore anti-capitalist shit I’ve heard all campaign. Joe Biden is militantly anti-corporatist now. Joe says fuck small businesses! Joe wants to soak the shit out of entrepreneurs!

Listening to the "electability" arguments I have yet to hear anyone explain how Biden (as beloved as he is by Obama Democrats) closes the enthusiasm gap with younger voters & voters of color that hurt Hillary in the stretch. Biden is so similar to her on issues, or to her right.

@AOC @true اس کو جواب دیا جا رہا ہے
Oof, sorry. FWIW, we met with Tim Ryan’s staff and requested more money for House daycare (and family leave) in the legislative approps bill. For most of us, House daycare exists on the same mythical plane as 10-year public service student loan forgiveness.

We get the same budget as Republican offices. We just pay modest salaries to make these things possible, unlike other offices.

They’ve expanded it. Fortunately, I’ve been on the waitlist for 3 years so I’ll get in regardless, but the daycare situation is improving in the House.

It’s also funny to think about the faux outrage cycle when conservatives said AOC doesn’t think people should have kids, and whether the people pushing it would have hired three people expecting children, or given them all 12-weeks of fully paid parental leave.

At 3:00am when my wife and I are up feeding/changing our newborn, I think about Mike Lee’s GND solution of “have babies.” Wonder what the parental leave policy is over there? Is it as generous as ours? Is it more generous than the “forfeit your social security” bill he intro’d?

In essence Jeff Bezos is a $100 billion tax on low-wage retail workers funneled into sci-fi set construction. Good system.

Plainclothes police in Oklahoma shoot three preschool aged black children in the head. They fired into a moving car driven by a man suspected of robbing a pizza shop.

I hope wins a Pulitzer for their reporting on this year. This is like the 7th unbelievable nugget they’ve dug up.

It’s sarcasm from Matt, but plenty of people who say this (about free lunch, universal healthcare, student loan forgiveness and more) read Matt’s tweets and replies.

No universal program is regressive if the tax code that funds those programs is sufficiently progressive.

All school lunches should be free. Even if you're not poor and don't have to worry about this shit, wouldn't it be nice to not have to spend your morning making your kid(s) lunch?

The idea that Trump is a break from the status quo rather than a product of it is the most dangerous one in American politics right now.

Democrats vote for AOC and Ilhan and Rashida. That doesn’t mean they represent the party any more than he does.
