I'll start.

It's tragic how many terrible things that President "Smokin' Diamond" Joe Biden has had to allow to pass because there simply isn't enough of a majority to overcome GOP opposition to everything. If only there were some common-sense bills could be passed, with bipartisan support, then maybe we could remember that this country is already great, mend the divide, and get back on track.

Guys let's calm it with the tankie stuff. I know the more moderate liberals (because we're liberals too at the end of the day) can sometimes be a bit overzealous about China and Russia, but that's no reason to go around repeating propaganda and denying the established facts. Yes I'm a progressive. Yes I believe that Xi Jinping has personally eaten 10,000,000 children since taking power. There's no contradiction there. On the contrary, being a progressive is impossible without a firm commitment to truth.
