@PeteAguilar
I'm so angry — House Republicans have just introduced legislation to repeal the $35/month cap on insulin that Democrats passed for seniors on Medicare.
I need you to retweet and spread the word about this. Every voter needs to know.
@Tbsa , zero chance it will even make it to POTUS's desk. It's just theater.
@JonKramer For people running around talking about costing people more money, what the fuck is this?
@Tbsa , as I said, theater. Expect BS like this for the next 2 years, with flashes of Hunter's dick pics thrown in for increased outrage generation for the peanut gallery.
@JonKramer Conservativeson the 5th circuit are trying to make it a thing.
@Tbsa , Well, if they do, maybe the Dems will pass laws allowing medicare and private citizens to buy drugs from whatever sources they wish to. The Ds will never do this though.
@Tbsa , they could have last year. They didn't. So I say they won't.
@JonKramer Manchin and Sinema are not Dems, they’re corporate puppets, so no they couldn’t.
@Tbsa , there is always an excuse. There have been many times in history where Manchin and Sinima were not in office, and the Ds were in the majority in the House, Senate, and had the White House too. And nothing was done. Next time, it will be someone else who is the revolving villain, and we will wring our hands and say "if only *blank* would have supported it" with some new names instead of Manchin and Sinima.
@JonKramer Ots not an excuse. You have quite the right sided talking points though. Peace out.
@Tbsa , I have not really talked about the right. Nor have I sided with them.
@JonKramer@qoto.org The Biden admin has been historic on so many levels. Thanks for your corporate talking points. You’ve reached your daily limit.
@JonKramer @Tbsa i have diabetes and i agree with you - either the democrats get it done or they don't- and they haven't- yes, they face republican resistance but in crunch time nothing changes - and it's annoying that people think criticizing the dems means you're a conservative or a republican- not being as a bad as a republican doesn't mean you're not worthless or even insidious
@JonKramer The one who WONT, are repukes. You know the ones trying to overthrow the government.
@JonKramer @Tbsa it would work better if Medicare were allowed to negotiate with drug companies and use the buying power of the government to lower prices. #JustSaying
@wackyIdeas @Tbsa it would. The Ds just passed a law saying the government can NOT negotiate prices.
@JonKramer @Tbsa On of the reasons that I'm not totally proud of the D's, but they are heads and shoulders better than the other folks.
@wackyIdeas @Tbsa there is massive, blatantly obvious room for improvement. Being better than the fascists is nothing to be proud of. That's a really low bar.
@JonKramer @Tbsa like most #OpenSource projects, this appears to be a do ocracy. If you want to make it better …
@JonKramer The D’s don’t have the votes to do it. Please don’t act like they could, but won’t.
