This is really a throwback to how it was in the old primary/DNC rigged days, where Leftists would unleash endless streams of targeted harassment at random DNC/Clinton staffers (or really even just average Dems) under the guise of holding them accountable or whatever.
And then of course it was all justified (including personal harassment, doxxing and threats) because that person was the impediment to millions getting #M4A, so anything they get was not only deserved but righteous. It was all just transparent 'harassing my enemies is good.'
A lot of these people just use their 'leftism' as an excuse to do 4chan-level trolling/harassment. Ken knew exactly what he was doing. Oh yeah, irony poisoned leftist Ken Klippenstein is sincerely concerned about 'caring so little about our (great) country' lol.
Also very weird for Ken to wait until the day she comes back to the Senate to put all of her staffers on blast, when the ostensible reason she 'needs to resign' is that she's missing votes and stopping the Dem agenda. Kind of gives the game away that it's not actually about that.

This is 100% what media took from their failure in 2016. Not that they soft-pedaled Trump's extremism, not that they were integral in a RU disinfo attack, not that they made the election about an irrelevant process EMAIL story, but that they weren't nice enough to Trump voters.
It's wild how everyone outside of media could see the obvious failures of the coverage. Even after it was definitively found that the EMAILS stuff was nothing, that Russia was feeding Wikileaks minutia emails, that Trump was as extreme as it gets....no apologies. No reflection.
And then they all collectively concluded that the only thing they needed to change was to run more sympathetic "Trump voters love Trump" pieces. As if that was the fatal flaw of their 2016 coverage and not the massively distorted picture they painted of Trump/Clinton.
This is just sick, deranged behavior. It's just thinly veiled doxxing/harassment of some low-level staffers under the guise of 'caring about your country' (lol). Ken is such a tremendous piece of shit.
Yeah man, way to stick it to some kids right of college. That'll do it. It's their fault that the stubborn old lady refuses to resign. This is totally about sincere concern for Dems. Totally.
Thinking Feinstein should resign is a perfectly reasonable opinion (although, for pure Dem power purposes, best case scenario right now is for her to come back b/c the GOP is not seating anyone else on the judiciary committee before the next election) but this is not that.
Went over to Glenn's feed to see if he had any spin for the latest White Supremacist mass shooter and of course....silence.
For some odd reason, the only recent shooter he's even mentioned is Nashville. He's really, really fixated on that one for some odd reason.
Very conspicuous, but not surprising...I say as I hyper focus on one shooting because the person may have been trans and ignore every other one that is inconvenient to my ideology.
Before that, the last mass shooter he commented on was the Colorado Springs gay club shooting. Where his only concern was that Libs were smearing his (GOP) friends by saying that their anti gay rhetoric may have contributed to some guy shooting up a gay club.

2023:
Love to talk with my progressive friend Laura Ingraham about how the DNC is marginalizing progressives. I am definitely still attacking the DNC from the left, how dare you?
The Neera Tanden hate On Here has always been so comical. The majority of it comes from the hyper-online Left, who hated her because she gave back a tiny fraction of the shit they gave Dems. And anyone pushing back on their bad faith BS is immediately 'toxic' or whatever.
Fundamentally, the Online Left just believed they should be free to smear the Dems without any sort of resistance or pushback from Libs.
I repeatedly asked people to give me examples of her 'mean tweets' or 'attacking left' behavior & no one could really come up with anything aside from the Bruenig thing, which...I think we can see who was vindicated by the passage of time there (Also, Bruenig just outright lied).
