McConnell is even more evil than T drumph and Gilead Pence!!! Keep your fingers crossed …since you can’t vote against him unless you live in his State ….keep your fingers crossed that he gets voted down. Can’t really see it happening but we can hope… There must be a way that we can legally eject him from the senate for his pure evilness.
I’d be in favor of reparations to those who are right now negatively impacted by racist police, unfair sentencing policies, disenfranchisement and general inequity. But could we afford to pay all those women (and others) enough to matter?
If we don’t address climate change, it won’t much matter whether the last American a century from now is white, black, brown, green, or pink with purple polka dots.
That “prisons” tag should also be wearing a DEM button. The Biden-authored, Clinton-passed 1994 crime bill has been a significant factor in the massive increase in prison populations.

Excellent point. How about reparations for what you are doing NOW, Mitch?

You may not be responsible for what happened 150 years ago, but you are still benefiting from it.

Its just a coincidence that a Russian oligarch is building a factory in Mitch’s state.

The bill is to form a commission to DISCUSS reparations and what form they could take. It isn’t a plan to pass out checks.
I’d like to see this as a bigger issue to REALLY address poverty, especially with the massive expansion of income inequality.

Love the analogy. But those who take this path as well as follow Trump will be vilified in history.
