morbs is usually better at sidesteppin' the FPs

I am guessin that that is directed at NP and Morbz thinks he is a sock? idk

SCOOP: @SenWarren is proposing a "wealth tax" on those with more than $50 million, in an attempt to combat soaring wealth inequality

The tax would hit those above $50M w/ a 2% wealth tax, & those above $1B w/ 3% wealth tax. Would raise $2.75T/10 yearshttps://t.co/Vllt3M3I9a

I believe this is the most aggressive attempt to go after the concentration of resources in the wealthiest 0.1% of any 2020 Dem candidate

Big name economists Emmanuel Saez and @gabriel_zucman have been advising Warren on it

The $2.75T would come from about 75,000 families

Maybe this will halt the weirdly successful retconning of Warren as generic moderate Dem

she's a capitalist; close enough

Hey where do you rank 1932’s “The Purchase Price” among the Wellman pre-codes?

Nerdstrom Poindexter, Friday, 25 January 2019 00:23 (seven years ago)

Honestly, she would be a fantastic president. She has the sophistication of a “mainstream” dem and the healthy hatred of the rich as a Bernie. The unwillingness of some to take her seriously seems extremely sexist.

Trϵϵship, Friday, 25 January 2019 00:25 (seven years ago)

She’s not rosa luxembourg but for a democrat she is extremely principled. I’ll probably vote for her unless when it comes to NY it looks like some other left candidate is in a more competitive position to beat one of the more centrist candidates.

Trϵϵship, Friday, 25 January 2019 00:27 (seven years ago)

It makes no sense to me why she isn’t the early favorite. She seems by far the most predictable and trustworthy and she likes the policies left-liberals like, which is supposedly where the party is moving.

Trϵϵship, Friday, 25 January 2019 00:29 (seven years ago)

President Trump followed by President Warren, that would restore a little of my faith

Dan S, Friday, 25 January 2019 00:31 (seven years ago)

She isnt the early favorite because her media persona is clumsy/hokey as fuck imo

Οὖτις, Friday, 25 January 2019 00:37 (seven years ago)

Fucking good

Trϵϵship, Friday, 25 January 2019 00:38 (seven years ago)

Folksy and hokey is a change of pace from our current, demonic and transgressive president who builds skyscrapers with his name on them

Trϵϵship, Friday, 25 January 2019 00:39 (seven years ago)

As a millennial I think it’s cool, even. She is normcore.

Trϵϵship, Friday, 25 January 2019 00:41 (seven years ago)

Haha she is def normcore

Οὖτις, Friday, 25 January 2019 00:42 (seven years ago)

The Purchase Price is decent, mostly cuz of Stanwyck

I genuinely fear that the Grifter can beat a 70ish white woman, presuming he's still ambulatory.

It is absolutely incredible to me that his team didn't go through his old tweets. Or worse, maybe they did?

resident hack (Simon H.), Friday, 25 January 2019 00:43 (seven years ago)

Pharma stuff is bad but he wasn't agreeing w/that tweet--just quoting it to respond w/thishttps://t.co/OVlemTh7Fe

Trϵϵship, Friday, 25 January 2019 00:45 (seven years ago)

I’m no booker fan but it looks like he was disagreeing with that sentiment not agreeing with it

Trϵϵship, Friday, 25 January 2019 00:46 (seven years ago)

Oh, weird. Must have been pre quote tweeting?

resident hack (Simon H.), Friday, 25 January 2019 00:46 (seven years ago)

I guess? I used twitter briefly in that era but all i remember is getting mad at ryan schreiber and making an account for my dog

Trϵϵship, Friday, 25 January 2019 00:48 (seven years ago)

Lol

why do you think there is, or should be, a favourite this early

agree, she's my preferred candidate of those who are running

k3vin k., Friday, 25 January 2019 01:59 (seven years ago)

George W. Bush was elected twice. He was clumsy, hokey, AND dumb as fuck, so...

I was talking to a Beto-favouring friend a couple of weeks ago who made the completely serious statement that Warren is too pro-Wall Street.

this is sort of funny in that i can see how someone who had *just started paying attention* might have caught 'warren gave speeches to wall street' as a headline and formed it into a view

That and this seem like the “Hillary pandered by saying she likes hot sauce (although she’s been saying that for like 20 years)” thing on steroids. This is a still from a skit on Colbert she did back in April but blew up yesterday but made to look like something g her campaign did

Tariq Nasheed going after a black woman shocker.

Yerac, Friday, 25 January 2019 18:02 (seven years ago)

nasheed also challenged terry crews to a boxing match this week to settle who is more of a man

what a card

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Friday, 25 January 2019 18:06 (seven years ago)

Nasheed's books on dating and finding women include The Mack' Within, The Elite Way, and The Art of Mackin'.[5][6][4] Nasheed has also authored two advice books for female readers: Play or Be Played: What Every Female Should Know About Men, Dating, and Relationships[5][7] and The Art of Gold Digging.[8]

Norm’s Superego (silby), Friday, 25 January 2019 18:06 (seven years ago)

never heard of him but yeah telling black women what to do with their hair is uh

oh THAT guy. he's having a big week

resident hack (Simon H.), Friday, 25 January 2019 18:09 (seven years ago)

He says he is an “anti-racism strategist.” What a world.

Trϵϵship, Friday, 25 January 2019 18:14 (seven years ago)

So, uh, Richard Ojeda left his state senate seat to concentrate on running for president. TEN DAYS later he quit the presidential race. In the meantime, WV's GOP governor replaced him with a more conservative senator. https://t.co/lMINPeoUed
