If y'all aren't following the debate and protest around this last minute, horrific abortion ban bill in WV, you're missing some of the best and worst displays of humanity I've seen in awhile. Wish I could be in Charleston today.
This 12-year-old girl in West Virginia just stood up to lawmakers attempting to criminalize abortion with NO exceptions for victims of rape or incest. “Some here say they are pro-life… What about my life?”

Tucked away inside the Build Back Better Act was a four-year extension of an excise tax that funds a program that helps sick coal miners. The current rate of the tax will expire at the end of this year, and the program faces insolvency. My latest: newrepublic.com/article/1648…

Sen. Manchin’s op-ed on the #ForThePeopleAct is full of unsound, unserious arguments.  Let’s unpack it.

There were 54 votes in favor of enacting the January 6 Commission, and 35 opposed, but because our rules are completely bananas that means that the 35 WON THE VOTE. The filibuster must go.

Fact check: Mitch McConnell could have allowed a trial of Donald Trump while he was still president and McConnell was still Majority leader. He decided not to bring the Senate back.

What does it mean when they boo the Black congresswoman denouncing white supremacy?

Republicans have reduced “peace” to only mean white comfort, protection of white supremacy, unchecked authority and unaccountability.

Since it appears GOP leaders need a reminder: There is no “healing” from this without accountability. And there is no “unity” with white supremacists. You know the President’s state has devolved dangerously. If you’re too weak to do anything about it, you’re too weak to serve.
