sexism is a helluva drug

if you think Manchin would ever try to block senior govt position bc a man’s tweets were too “partisan” I’ve got news for you
it’s entirely possible Manchin doing this bc he knows there’s at least 1 GOP for her

it’s still pathetic, tho
good grief, is Manchin still mad abt VP’s interview w/ WV media and this is his payback??

great! the bill has 83% public support, including 70% GOP voter support

this should work out well for them
“At a time when the press is demanding Beltway "unity," Biden is actually producing it by championing a fervently, almost historically, popular piece of legislation.”

the GOP watches from sidelines

"The coverage needs to be upfront and honest about the damage Limbaugh's career has done to this country and to the democratic process — the vile degradation of our public discourse. "
"It needs to be transparent about the endless litany of lies and heartless smears Limbaugh has gleefully trafficked in for decades, as he stuffed his pockets with millions and wallowed in the misfortune of others. "

my latest—why did this take 4 years?
pressrun.media/p/washington-p…
“Marty Baron has been executive editor for one of the most influential news outlets in America, so why did the paper fail to be "more forthright" about Trump's lies? “
“Why did the Post on the one hand employ an aggressive team of fact-checkers to document the thousands of Trump lies, but then refuse to call them "lies"?

That's not journalism.”

ABC poll showed Americans support impeachment by 13 pts

but sure, “slender”
such bizarre framing: *only* a clear majority support impeachment

fact: 2/3 **opposed** impeaching Clinton

my latest—Dems are def not n disarray; pressrun.media/p/sorry-politi…
“As for Republicans and the political consequences impeachment poses for them? Politico wasn't interested, The GOP, apparently, faces no impeachment fallout, only Democrats.”
bottom line:

when Dem President was impeached it was Bad News for Dems

when a GOP president gets impeached it’s Bad News for Dems

heads you lose, tails you lose
