THINGS THE SENATE IS ALLOWED TO DO BY MAJORITY VOTE: 1. Pass a multi-trillion dollar tax cuts for corporations 2. Confirm right-wing justices to a lifetime seat on the Supreme Court THINGS THAT REQUIRE A SUPER MAJORITY: 1. A $15 minimum wage 2. Protecting voting rights — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
It's pretty absurd that a $15 minimum wage can't pass the Senate via a majority vote because some person that no one elected thinks the budget impact is "merely incidental" — PolitiTweet.org

@EmilyDreyfuss But I do think extra community "perks" while keeping the substance free is an interesting and possibly effective model — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@EmilyDreyfuss I do the same thing although I don't actually promote commenting as a benefit of subscribing. I just keep it that way because it weeds out the trolls. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@EmilyDreyfuss Yeah I'm going to stick with it through the pandemic. But at some point the pandemic might end and I'll have to figure out what to do. But I think there are some things were access to paywalled content isn't the primary motivator to pay — PolitiTweet.org

@EmilyDreyfuss For the last year I've taken down my newsletter paywall because I didn't want to limit access during the pandemic and it has not hurt my business (so far) — PolitiTweet.org

I hope people realize the Mr. Potato Head thing is just a marketing gimmick designed to increase demand for both the old "Mr. Potato Head" product and the new "Potato Head" product — PolitiTweet.org

3. If you actually care about free speech in a substantive sense, you would not spend a second of time worrying about Tucker Carlson's advertisers, for example Tucker has a bigger platform and gets paid more money to speak than virtually everyone on earth But here we are — PolitiTweet.org

2. It reminds me of how people use the abstraction of "equality of opportunity" to distract from real issues of economic marginalization Focusing exclusively on abstract principles does not make you an intellectual — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
1. One thing that bothers me is that the self-appointed champions of free speech never talk about substantive ways to increase opportunities for marginalized voices to be heard. It's all an abstraction. — PolitiTweet.org

@RepMarieNewman Congresswoman, this plainly should not have happened. We've restored this content and you have our sincere apologies.

I hope that this is some kind of algorithmic mistake and not an actual content moderation decision by Facebook. I'm going to ask and find out. Will let you know when/if I get clarity. — PolitiTweet.org

Bad news everyone. I've been discovered as a Trump (and Bannon!) "crony" That's the only reason I'm taking the sexual harassment and assault allegations against Cuomo seriously. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
National Democrats should speak out about the allegations of sexual harassment and assault against @NYGovCuomo They are serious and there is documentary evidence that supports @LindseyBoylan's account There needs to be a real investigation. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
I agree the allegation against Cuomo is credible. And the woman speaking out says she wasn't the only victim. But the dozens of accusations against your dad were also credible. https://t.co/FAduCP6OcY — PolitiTweet.org

7. Many corporations have suspended giving to the 147 Republicans who voted to overturn the election. How could they justify resuming their contributions when the party continues to push the same lies that set the stage for 1/6? https://t.co/aF55FlsmPg — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
6. There is nothing about being a Republican that requires you to perpetuate lies. But that is what the GOP has decided to do, even after those lies resulted in the death of 5 people. For updates and accountability journalism, sign up for the newsletter https://t.co/TfpCItdVSo — PolitiTweet.org

5. Fox News claims that its coverage of the 2020 election has been rigorous and fair. But Fox News has decided to stream FOUR DAYS OF LIES ABOUT THE 2020 ELECTION. It's also a top sponsor of @CPAC, paying at least 250K in support of the event. https://t.co/aF55FlsmPg — PolitiTweet.org

4. Scott and McCarthy are key figures in determining the future of the GOP. And they've decided the future is to embrace Trump and his lies about election fraud. No one is forcing them to do so. That's their choice. https://t.co/aF55FlsmPg — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
3. Who is participating in this festival of lies? @GOPLeader Kevin McCarthy. He will be introduced by @mschlapp, the organizer of the conference who was on CNN this week spreading election fraud lies @SenRickScott, who heads the @NRSC https://t.co/aF55FlsmPg — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
2. This year's @CPAC will feature 7 PANELS promoting lies about election fraud including: "Why Judges & Media Refused to Look at the Evidence" "The Left Pulled the Strings, Covered It Up, and Even Admits It" "Failed States (PA, GA, NV, oh my!)" https://t.co/aF55FlsmPg — PolitiTweet.org
