@DanaHoule Facts. — PolitiTweet.org

Pelosi deputy Steny Hoyer said congress shouldn’t convene unless there’s an emergency. What the fuck are we in right now? Showing off your ice cream collection during a pandemic isn’t doing shit for people dying. — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

Pelosi has more money than the entire populations of some housing projects in the US. Is showing off your 15 flavor ice cream collection in extremely expensive appliances meant to be reassuring to people fighting 15 bill collectors during a pandemic & struggling to buy food? — PolitiTweet.org

Just as it is a waste of energy to attack Sanders, it is beneath Sanders to lecture his supporters for having serious questions about Biden’s candidacy. Or to disavow former staffers like @briebriejoy. People have every right to be angry at the choices they now face in November. — PolitiTweet.org

The flip side of this is: what is Sanders going to do to keep up the fight for what he campaigned on? Simply campaigning for Biden ain’t it. Electoral politics is one method of fighting. But what is Sanders going to do with the organizing infrastructure he built? — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

Spending energy attacking Sanders is a waste of time & reveals a fundamental lack of understanding of what Sanders is & has always been and what he isn’t. He gave it an incredible effort and we can all learn from what Sanders managed to do and use it to fight harder and smarter. — PolitiTweet.org

What Sanders did was a strategic attempt to overthrow the Dem establishment *by working within a system they control.* He won some battles but lost the war. The media smears against him, powerful players operating in secret, huge money,all of that was part of it, but they won. — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

Sanders could have spent 2016-2019 mobilizing a 3rd Party. But he wouldn’t do that. He never has advocated that path. Ask Ralph Nader about Bernie and 3rd parties. You can be angry or disappointed, but don’t pretend Sanders ever stood for a different outcome if he lost. — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

People attacking Sanders for endorsing Biden are either being disingenuous or didn’t study Sanders’ career. He chose to run in the Dem Primary. He played by its rules. People who supported Sanders with eyes wide open knew this was a given if he lost. He told you he would do it. — PolitiTweet.org

This by ⁦@JessicaValenti is a powerful indictment of the awful trap the Democratic Party has set for many voters, particularly women, by nominating Biden. Regardless of if you agree with her position, it is well worth reading. https://t.co/lA0R1Zn3rR — PolitiTweet.org

@MitchSchindler Actually it is, if you listen to the neocons discuss how they view the Democratic establishment in the era of Trump. They also supported Clinton in 2016. The main course for them in this meal is the “not a socialist” part because they hate Sanders more than they hate Trump. — PolitiTweet.org

@dubwan Can you go converse with some Biden supporters about how awful this line is? https://t.co/cDEkd2uFj4 — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

@Sarah_White_77 You could have sent multiple texts or made a call for Biden during the time you are wasting right now. — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

@Sarah_White_77 Well, 53% of white women voted for Trump, so maybe you should be phone or text banking white women for Biden instead of tweeting about the primary and random twitter users. — PolitiTweet.org

This line is an appeal to NeverTrumper Republicans and neoconservatives and it is delivered by attacking progressives and Sanders supporters while pretending the Democratic Party’s corporate wing are not actually plutocrats. Again, maybe that beats Trump, but would you bet on it? — PolitiTweet.org

How does messaging like this, which despicably compares “socialists” to “plutocrats,” help Joe Biden win? https://t.co/j44NC4qmKw — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

Barack Obama was a popular Democratic President. Joe Biden was his Vice President. A lot of Americans despise Trump and rightly assess the dangers of a second term. This may be enough to beat Trump. But I wouldn’t bank on that calculation alone. — PolitiTweet.org
