    Don’t just blame Republicans.

    I’m sorry, is there another party that controls virtually all of the government right now?

    Saying it’s “the government” is just reinforcing the age-old Murc’s Law media trick that lets the Republicans skate away scot-free.

      You clearly missed the point of the quoted speech. This isn’t just Republicans. This is the government in action. Democrats chose to vote on the BBB instead of indefinite filibuster. Democrats helped keep the iran war going. Democrats are enabling Trump and the Republicans. It’s not just Republicans. The government has failed us.
