I never heard Biden apologize for this before:
New from me: At MLK day breakfast, the two paths of Biden + Bloomberg were on display. Biden acknowledged his vote for the crime bill was a mistake that "trapped an entire generation.” Bloomberg avoided all mentions of stop and frisk https://t.co/gUmQEyK9sZ

Next he can apologize for the 2005 bankruptcy bill, which trapped *another* entire generation by not allowing them to discharge their student loans in bankruptcy court, as well as allowing credit card companies and payday lenders to charge loan shark rates. So much for nice guy blue collar Joe. Fuck that guy.
Flying blind.
Biden should retire.
Kamala Harris is a law and order, corporatist.
Kirsten Gillibrand was anti-immigrant and Tulsi Gabbard was anti-gay, until they weren’t.
Elizabeth Warren has a very limited repertoire when it comes to the issues.
Julian Castro, John Delany, Richard Ojeda and Andrew Yang are all MT suits.
Not very exciting choices so far.
and after apologizing for the bankruptcy bill, Joe should apologize for the role he played in the Anita Hill hearings, and for allowing Thomas to be seated.
and then he should retire.
and after apologizing for the bankruptcy bill and the crime bill,
Biden can apologize for his role in the Anita Hill hearings,
and for allowing Thomas to be seated.
Joe’s been dead to me for years.
Except if by some horrible bad fortune he is the 2020 Dem nominee, I’ll contribute to his campaign and vote for him in the general, because purity fixation is political sepuku.
Bloomberg has blood on his patrician cuffs for the stop and frisk policing on his watch.
Kamala Harris . . . wasn’t she in the first season of Bosch, and played the “tough on crime” DA who refused to prosecute bankers and lawyers who were illegally foreclosing on homeowners with fraudulent documentation, and went on to take all sorts of campaign contributions from bankers and lawyers for her senate run? I’d love to see how her story arc finishes in the next season, when she runs for president and the Orange Monster rightly points out her hypocrisy and all the muckety mucks from the DNC get on MSNBC to tell us they didn’t see that one coming . . .
