Possible, though there are adequate other reasons (eg appeal to non-Trumpy voters). There’s definitely some hardball negotiating going on https://t.co/kLbAG0nvz9 https://t.co/3C9XJpBwDC

Yes. Boring movies are exactly what skeptics would have predicted when Hollywood went woke. “It’s not just that woke doesn’t leave room for nuance; it often drains characters of what makes them fascinating and intriguing and exciting to watch.” https://t.co/Mo4Bq10s59

Passing this compromise would require some triangulating vs. the left (which wants no-work welfare as a matter of–misguided–principle). Weak Biden, unlike Clinton, prefers to let others (eg Manchin) do the triangulating. Even when (as with BBB) left will be OK with compromise. https://t.co/WSrCD5qzbU

If Dems win the Senate with 52 votes but lose the House, would they actually *want* to get rid of the filibuster–so a) they can pass bills that will be blocked in the House but b) GOPS may be able to pass bills after ’24 that will actually become law? https://t.co/kLWRYmN8Ih
