- So republicans running as democrats to snag people who toe the party line. Damn, wish we could get some people to pretend to be fucking insane and then flip left
  
  No, Dems just love to play the center and vote for this kind of bullshit all the fucking time.
  As a group they are not as terrible as Republicans, but they voted overwhelmingly for the Patriot Act and mot other shitty legislation too.
  
  How are these people Republicans running as Democrats? All of those districts that I know have had Republican challengers fielded.
- What an unsurprising list.
  
  Moskowitz surprised me.
  
  could you explain?
- And they’ll still be on on his list.
  
  In the DNC a non profit?
Debbie Wasserman Schultz has been gutting US democracy from the inside for decades
Darn, I wish they split it into multiple questions and only passed the part about Americans imprisoned abroad not needing to pay extravagant interest for not paying taxes. I hate it when lawmakers take the basic needs of hostages hostage for Trump's political gains.
They are just demonstrating that they are bending the knee before the transition as that is the kind of presidency Trump will be running with his team of grifters.
We are doomed ☠️
Voted blue no matter who so hard they got blue republicrats.
