Republicans arguing people trying to engage Senator in bathroom WORSE than armed take-over of Capitol in attempt to murder Vice-President & block transfer of power to Democratic Biden. Republicans demanding bathroom protestors get deported, while insurrectionists not get charged.
People flooding this tweet to mock the severity of the 1/6 insurrection really proves me wrong!
Thoroughly convinced that the folks who want to monitor women's periods, block access to women's healthcare, check genitalia of children to harass them over possible gender fluidity, are super concerned about some random DEM voters confronting DEM senator in the bathroom.
If you reply to this thread saying (1) I am attacking a strawman (2) But, of course, confronting Senator Sinema in the bathroom is worse than the 1/6 Insurrection: you don't understand what the word strawman means. Also, Dear Leader Jr. himself liked the tweet I referenced!
It amazing watching people contradict themselves in the same Tweet.

@mattyglesias @DouthatNYT Mainstream media & political elites destroyed Biden for ending Afghanistan War after 20 years and guaranteed that progressives will face same uphill battle when elites drum-up their next poorly considered war, also end to war has not tied to economic & moral soft power we need.
While people & laws have shifted towards civil rights for LGBTQ, Republican courts & politics have shifted hard against minority voting, and women’s rights. And, while larger safety net is super popular & necessary: 0 Republicans are backing Biden policies.
Most critically one issue from early aughts was why/how Supreme Court could hand presidency to dude with less votes & (if they kept counting) less electoral votes, and he could act like he had all the political capital: Assault on fragile democracy has gotten way worse.

We would be better informed AND better people if the White House Press Corps was disbanded.*

*President Biden is going to church & visiting graves of his children.
Saving an image of this @washingtonpost White House reporter tweet, before she inevitably deletes it.
Worth noting, not only is this tweet shockingly insensitive to person visiting graves of his children: what happened last week was exactly what Biden & Democrats wanted in quashing rebellion by 1 egomaniacal anti-Biden congressman. Agenda still hard, but better for what happened.

There is policy & procedural fight right now between 267 Democrats in Congress VERSUS 3 Democrats & All Republicans in Congress. Biden policy is super popular, would provide desperately necessary investment in infrastructure & American people as we come out of plague & recession.
In ideal world media would focus on the policy, explain to US what it means to invest in clean infrastructure, to provide basic social saftey net for hard working Americans, how the cost is offset by tax increases on rich & future growth. But, media is not interested in policy.
Media is interested in the fight! But, they completely misclassify the fight as ideological schism in Democratic Party when it is 267 to 3! And, 2 of the 3 are non-ideological egomaniacal power-hungry arsonists, the other a West Virginia senator who lives on a yacht!

Democrats in Congress (of all ideologies) incredibly united behind Biden’s Build Back Better policy, just a few members in house (out of 222) & 2 in senate (out of 50) are fighting the policy and it is not out of ideology, but spite, power, stupidity …
Anti-Biden leader in house @JoshGottheimer is strict follower of former-Democrat, current-Trumpist @Mark_Penn, whose entire schtick for last decade has been to use status as former-Democrat to subvert Democratic Party & policy for this right-wing friends. All about power & chaos.
And Sinema left Washington to go party with rich donors has no policy goals: she is not a “centrist” or “moderate”, she is just an arsonist who wants to be famous.

Talking about how 6 partisan hacks in robes are making rich corporations all powerful & stripping civil rights from so many of US is not the problem.

Problem is 6 partisan hacks in robes making rich corporations all powerful & stripping civil rights from so many of US.
If you think gay marriage & birth control are safe from reactionary Republican Supreme Court, because they are established law, popular, necessary, good in a thriving modern country: you do not understand what motivates the Supreme Court & their complete lack of accountability.
Reactionary Republican Supreme Court understands you cannot have both (1) functioning democracy (2) embittered white Christian male rule (where embittered white Christian males increasingly small minority of the eligible voting population). So they are all-in on ending democracy.
