“Federal Election Commission records show Stein paid $100,000 in July to a consulting outfit that has worked with Republican campaigns, as well as Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s independent presidential bid. The firm, Accelevate, is operated by Trent Pool. The Intercept reported that he appeared to be part of the mob that breached the grounds of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6., 2021. The Journal hasn’t independently verified the reporting.”

    Any time in which Democrats had at least 50 was sufficient to kill the filibuster forever. We gave them necessary majorities and they squandered them.

    And do you think denying Democrats Senate seats in the future will help my kids more somehow?

    Did I say that? I can criticize Democrats when they’re useless (which is virtually always) without wanting fewer of them in the Senate.

      My apologies. I’ve been getting inundated by people who purport to believe that dividing the left up is a winning strategy, and mistakenly clumped you in with them.

        No worries. I’m used to it.

          Thanks. And for the record, I agree with you that it’s 100% fair to criticize Democrats when they don’t live up to their promises.
