I promise that Al Sharpton, Sherrilyn Ifill and all us pleading for every step to be taken to address this issue have done the vote counts and read the polls. But none of us knows the future. It's okay to push for the outcomes you want to see, even if the odds are long. — PolitiTweet.org

I know we in the media (myself included) have trained everyone to be a savvy observer of politics, to count the votes, read the polls, know what is "realistic." But it's okay to be just really alarmed about what is happening to our democracy and want something to be done. — PolitiTweet.org

Biden's speech was appropriately alarmist. He literally said that people should be alarmed. But it fell short of three of my hopes---addressing the filibuster, explaining that a voting rights bill will be partisan and divisive and calling out the "talking about racism" bans. https://t.co/QF61MyljtO — PolitiTweet.org
