Floor debate on Sanders’ JRDs will begin around 1:30 p.m. ET, subject to change based on the Senate schedule.

        Why does someone that’s not American feel the need to comment on so many American political posts? Hmmmmm…

          Right? The language used in a lot of those comments reads like a tankie who failed to read the instance they were signing up for.

          Because it’s a great source of humor.
          Like watching monkees in the zoo.

          He’s the sheepdog luring the gullible libs away from possibly running to an actual left 3rd party and keeping them in the imperialist uniparty by larping as a leftist and a lot of talk, all this while he votes for every US war and supports most of their horrible policies.

            fuck off with your accelerationist insanity, if you want to lead us to some glorious leftist future do some propaganda of the deed yourself instead of accusing the good people of slowing the revolution by doing what little good they can

              slowing the revolution
              LOL
              That is exactly what the sheepdog’s function is.
              I’m not American so I have a normal Overton window and can see he’s just a POS faker imperialist warmonger.
              And actually IDC that you’re all too stupid to realise it.
              Trump is really doing a great job at destroying your cancer country so you’re right, I should really fuck off and let you clowns bungle on. You’revolutionaries’ are all doing a great job.
              Have another ‘buy nothing from Wallmart’ day.

                  Call me whatever you like, that is not going to help you one bit.
                  Continue what you’re doing with your futile ‘resistance’ and I’ll further enjoy the long awaited demise of the US cancer country.

              This looks like a perfect time to post my comment from 2 days ago: https://lemm.ee/post/60079584/19361770

              He knows his virtue signaling proposition hasn’t got a chance since support for the genociders is a bipartisan given.

              And he’s never in opposition when it concerns every imperialist war also a bipartisan given.
              He voted for every last one of them.
              At the end he endorses whatever Dem candidate is running.
              From the ghoul Hillary to Copmala.
              And not true leftists from actual 3rd parties.
              If he did he would be shunned like them.
