Downvote and no response to my provided numbers, huh? We’re supposed to be the fact-oriented people, we care about reality, about evidence. Even when its hard, even when it doesn’t conform to our beliefs that try to explain the world in simple and emotionally convenient ways.
It’s not entertainment, this is people’s real lives and the impacts politicians have on them. It’s your unsupported theories running headfirst into hard numbers. If you have numbers to prove me wrong, go ahead and share. But you don’t, do you? Just unsupported online conspiracy theory from your echo chambers.
I’ve been a progressive for decades, we’re on the same side, you and I. I just don’t hide behind comforting illusions.
You were really going to actually try to defend that position? Progressivism relies on the truth. If we don’t have the truth, the facts, we have nothing. We become just like the far right, following a blind faith. That won’t work though, because we’re the educated ones that employ critical thinking. Too many of us check the actual numbers behind the narratives people try to spin.
At least 16 Democratic members of Congress donated to Cuellar’s campaign through their campaign committee or leadership PACs during the 2022 election cycle, according to an OpenSecrets analysis of FEC filings. In total, the campaign received some $40,400 in political contributions from other sitting Democrats.
Not sure on 2020 numbers, they’re not as quick to find. Not exactly breaking the bank here though. Almost half of his funding that cycle (almost 2 million) actually came from AIPAC, and a lot of the rest from industry and business contributions.
Henry Cuellar.

Demand that someone else entertain you.

I’m not required to reply to you in what you consider to be a timely manner. Demand entertainment from someone else.

I’m not going to reward your entitled demands. Declare victory if you want. I’m not playing your stupid games.
The truth is not games. Politics is not a game. This is not funsies, it’s people’s lives.
There. You’ve declared victory and I’m free. Bother someone else with your entitlement.

Anyways, details are important. When we look at them, we see a lot more than some sort of “party suppression”.
