Putin has officially stamped Russia's star political scientist Ekaterina Schulmann, one of the nation's most popular public intellectuals and one of the few figures with the backbone to openly criticize Putin, to its registry of "extremists," meaning her property is confiscated by the state.

The really funny part is that the hate for Clinton came from her daring to try to reform healthcare in the 1990s.
And then 25 years later when she runs for President, the debunked right wing lies told about her get regurgitated by the left because she beat Sanders in the primary.

So many crickets tonight on both sides of the aisle.
Do y’all know how many republicans & democrats based their HRC hate on Epstein bs?
I gotta give the GOP credit. The $Billion they spent over the better part of a decade to trash the Clintons was well $ spent.

While millions of working poor Americans struggle to put food on the table, Trump hosted a dinner with a bunch of Wall Street CEOs at the White House. Crickets from the OPTICS POLICE in the media who would spend weeks typing up stories about Biden's mental decline if he mispronounced a word.

Bush inherited a surplus & turned it into a multi-trillion dollar deficit, started a war based on lies about WMDs & destroyed the economy.
There’s not enough space to describe what happened in either of Trump’s presidencies but this never-ending cycle definitely matches the quote about insanity.

Clinton was the only president to balance the budget.
Bush left office in a near depression & Obama fixed the economy & passed the ACA.
With a slim House majority & a 50-50 Senate, Biden got more legislation passed through reconciliation & with bipartisan support than any Congress in years.

It's tough to understand how we got stuck in this cycle where every time a Democratic president does as much as they can with the trifecta they come into office with, the electorate breaks it up in the midterms, then elects a GOP president with a trifecta who dismantles their accomplishments.
