But Democratic leadership has, once again, folded to Republicans without attempting to fight for us.
Senate Democrats just killed the push today for $2000 checks.
A few Senators--namely Sanders and Markey--wanted to hold up the NDAA as leverage to push for a vote on $2000.
Democratic leadership rejected this--including Vice President elect Harris.
But Democratic leadership has, once again, folded to Republicans without attempting to fight for us.
a.) Find another leverage against McConnell and Senate Republicans
b.) Take McConnells offer on the combined bill of $2000 checks and Trump wishlist items
This is precisely why Sanders & Markey wanted to hold it up as leverage.
Dem leadership better have a Plan B if they are serious about helping people.
But I ask how she proposes to actually get Senate Republicans to agree to $2000 payments when McConnell refused a clean bill, and while shooting down potential leverage on this today
And they wouldn’t have to resort to holding up the NDAA as leverage to do so.
Which is why it’s incredibly important for Georgians to vote for Warnock and Ossoff in the upcoming runoff election.

Buffett's letters taught me more about investing than any business school ever could.
Even after investing for 14 years, I uncover new insights every time I reread his letters.
Recently, I reread his letters from 1977 to 2020 for a third time.
Here are my key insights:
1. Moat is NEVER stagnant
A company's competitive position either grows stronger or weaker each day.
Widening the moat must always take precedence over short-term targets.
2. Commodity businesses
A business without moat will have its returns competed away.
Regardless of improvement, your competitors will quickly copy your advantage away.
Where returns on capital is dismal, reinvestment will only destroy value.
3. The flywheel effect
Buffett was preaching about the flywheel effect before it became cool.
Back then, newspapers were similar to today's platform businesses like Amazon, Meta, and App Store.
More readers beget more advertisers beget more readers.
4. Operating leverage
Companies with high fixed costs and low variable costs will see earnings rise faster than revenue.
However, it cuts both ways.
It becomes a disaster when revenue is declining.
