AOC is a great case study of a leader with deeply progressive values who understands how power can be used to secure material change while rejecting empty posturing that makes a small cluster of very online purists feel validated.
AOC is a great case study of how DC can transform a young person with an exciting and aspirational worldview into an extremely predictable and boring politician

Y'all are making this WAY too complicated.
They are BOTH old.
One of them tried to cancel a lot of student loan debt and was stopped by the Supreme Court (so he canceled a little less).
One of them is the reason the Supreme Court ended the right to an abortion in this country.

This is not correct. The Senate’s organizing resolution for committees (S. Res. 30) specifically provides for a successor to be chosen. Republicans may try and delay it, but they cannot unilaterally deny Democrats the committee ratio our majority provides.
Diane Feinstein’s passing all but ensures that Republicans can effectively block every federal judge nomination by denying a replacement for her seat on the judiciary committee.

What Senator Cornyn is referring to is what our peer democracies refer to as “governing.”
I know the concept is rather foreign to the GOP, but I’m told it has its benefits.
A practical consequence of breaking the filibuster rule is legislative whiplash. Each time a party gets a bare majority, it can jam bill through, only to be reversed when tides turn.

If you don’t understand this, I fear that your politics aren’t actually progressive. Your politics are simply hating the Democratic Party.
Joe Biden is the most successful progressive president in modern American history -- and the best on climate action, by leaps and bounds. His re-election is of paramount importance. His loss in November would be catastrophic for the country and the planet. Thats it folks.
