Republicans Squint Out Tax Cuts for the Rich
No matter the voters’ problems or desires, Republicans reply to every calamity with the same answer: more tax cuts for the rich and powerful. I mean, it’s politically insane, but off they go anyway.
Discussion about politically-based actions.
An Explanation: the Filibuster Veto Power
In America, the majority doesn’t have absolute power. We want the minority to have a strong voice. But current rules go too far, giving Republicans veto power. With a tweak to the Senate cloture rules, we could get back to a fair filibuster.
Obstruction: The New Republican Death Cult
The GOP used to obstruct good governance when it helped them get reelected. But now they just block everything they can, even when it hurts their party. Is this some new Republican Death Cult?

Texas and Mississippi cancelled mask mandates and crowding limits. State-level Republican leaders are perfectly willing to kill innocent people so they can pretend they’re manly. Stop pretending they’re working in good faith; they’re perfectly willing for you to suffer and die.

Sunday Brainworms: Republicans Lie About Unity
The Washington Post has learned nothing. They’re focusing on the GOP lie about unity and healing. This is the same Republican Criminal Enterprise that voted to overturn our democracy just a few weeks ago. Their “Unity!” brainworm is a distraction, so we won’t uncover how deeply the conspiracy ran.
