The Senate parliamentarian has decided that the $15 minimum wage cannot go in the reconciliation covid relief bill. In 2001 the Republicans fired a parliamentarian that ruled against them. Something tells me that’s not happening here.

when republicans are in charge its your moral duty to stand outside in line for 4 hours to vote them out. when democrats are in charge theyre not in charge for reasons they condescendingly explain you are too stupid to understand

@kate
democrats before the election: “vote for us if you want [x]”
democrats after they win: “you voted for us, so let us politicians work” *fails to pass [x]*

@kate almost forgot

democrats two years later: “vote for us if you want [x]—but for real this time we promise”
