Moscow Mitch is speaking tonight. Let’s raise some money for the Democrat running against him, Amy McGrath. It’s a tough race but…fuck Mitch.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.
You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.
Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.
“But what about the lurkers?”
If you can’t control your emotions, someone else will.
We still have time to mess this up!
“Facilitate” is an active verb, not a weasel word.
If ‘weird’ was the finish line, they ran through the tape and kept running.
When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?
The lights are all blinking red.
Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?
Jack Smith: “Why did you start campaigning in the middle of my investigation?!”
When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.
When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.
Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.
Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.
Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll
Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.
75% of people clapping liked the show!
It’s all just conspiracy shit beamed down from the mothership.
Washington Post Catch and Kill, not noticeably better than the Enquirer’s.
Radicalized white males who support Trump are pitching a tent in the abyss.
There are some who say that there are too many strawmen arguments on this blog.

Can anybody explain what the fuck this is? And why purported Democrat Andrew Yang is lending his name to it? I always suspected he was some kind of asshole, now I know for sure.
SiubhanDuinne
Done.

@Gin & Tonic:
I’m not much of a fan, but there’s nothing there to indicate that Yang is aware of the existence of that organization, much less endorsing it.

@Gin & Tonic: Ugh.

@Gin & Tonic:
Good Lord. Tulsi Gabbard? Jesse Ventura?

@Gin & Tonic: From the website:
None of them are in on this; or if any of them are, it’s not in a formal or official way.

@Gin & Tonic:
According to one of the replies there Yang has not signed up to be in Unity. It’s a lie.

A sort of political fan fiction via online polling and data collection. I suspect the data collection is the primary purpose.

Like running for President to sell a book. Looking at you, Ben Carson!

Mitch’s remarks remind me of the old Hollywood joke about George Jessel, whose main activity was to deliver eulogies at Jewish funerals. At one, Jessel’s about midway through, looks down at the casket and says, “My God, I know this man!”

@mrmoshpotato: A circle jerk for centrists who want you to know just what they think.
There go two miscreants
Done.

I’m gonna tell you all, we do a monthly for Amy McGrath, and for M J Hegar in TX too, who flew a helicopter which was shot down. She has tats to cover some of her scars from shrapnel. Another great candidate!
I feel bad that I can’t push up the Balloon Juice totals, but I’m not gonna wait for Doug J to make it around to someone when we’re already donating there.

@Gin & Tonic: I made the stupid mistake of following the tweet owner. They’re nowhere near serious. I mean they’re saying John Cena supports this because of one picture with Tulsi? Riiiight…
Kropacetic
We would solve all our problems if we just elected an outsider and not regular politicians like Joe Biden and, let me make sure I’m reading this correctly, Donald Trump. But we need one from each side. No, it doesn’t matter who’s on top. No, it doesn’t matter this is completely incoherent.
Can an abstract concept like “bipartisanship” be considered a fetish object?
Ian
@Kropacetic:
If its John Cena, Jesse Ventura and Andrew Yang I think it matters very much who’s on top and who’s on bottom… oh what? You are refering to a presidential ticket? Hrm…
Ninedragonspot
I’m always in for a “Fuck Mitch”.
Wait, that might have come out wrong.
