Smart of Bernie to expand on the question of monopolies to talk about the death of family farms

She has such a good point about how Trump is inciting violence via his twitter (she did, after all, get a pipe bomb mailed to her). But using this to come at Liz is....ouch

I think what's most upsetting is that she has so many good points and arguments to make and to go to the mattresses over Trump's Twitter account is noooooooootttttttttt necessary

This was a smart strategy and told Black and brown voters everything they need to know about Warren. It was not a good look for Warren and Harris completely exposed her.

It also showed the brand of justice Harris is about - which is fairness across the board.

Harris' response on reproductive liberty kicked ass. She's got a solid plan to keep states in check and to codify Roe v Wade

Was there something terrible on Warren’s twitter? A lot of white people are on twitter all, "Kamala was mean to Liz!" but a lot of POC are on twitter saying just what jaygee said, that POC are the ones routinely victimized by what Trump does on Twitter (as I said upthread, Caesar Cyoc mailed a pipe bomb to Kamala) and by not going on record saying that megaphone should be taken away from Trump, Kamala put Liz on record as not protecting the victims of that megaphone.

I don't think Kamala was mean to Liz at all, FTR, I just found it hard to understand, in the moment, what she was getting at. She set it up really well but then pushed the same question and I think a lot of people lost the bigger point when she just kept saying, 'should he be banned?' rather than repeat why she was pressing it

Joe's plan to protect the Supreme Court from being used to criminalize abortion is....to campaign against people who oppose Roe?

Booker and Castro have both talked about how undermining Roe harms poor people, and Liz brings it full circle by saying that, before Roe, wealthy women still got abortions.

Biden: "I'm the only person on this stage who has ever gotten anything really big done."
Ummmmm Harris sued the hell out of the people who perpetrated the housing crisis, Booker got the FIRST STEP Act passed with TRUMP as president, Warren created an entire government agency, Bernie created a healthcare plan that was once considered fringe and is now the standard by which all candidates are measured but sure. Ok.

You make an excellent point, and that was what I was hoping she was driving at. But, shock of all shocks, white people totally missed her point. I am white and missed the point, but want to be aware. Was there something terrible on Warren’s twitter? No, but Warren has not been the target of violence incited by T on Twitter such as the pipe bomb mailings and the El Paso shooter using T’s tweets in his manifesto about killing immigrants. Or the threats against the whistleblower. She directed it to Warren because Warren is taking a big stand against FB and ads and breaking up big tech. Which is fantastic. But also very wonky and long term. Harris is asking for something that could be done immediately and have a huge impact. He is violating TOS of a private company, inciting violence, and obstructing justice. And Warren has scoffed at this call to suspend him from Twitter before, during, and after the debate. Why? Well, to Black people it reinforces the feeling that she’s never been there for marginalized groups. Also of note, Black and minority activists have their accounts suspended and reported all the time on Twitter and IG. They get shut down over the most trivial crap because people report them and they temporarily suspend their account. So, regular people get extreme overreach of TOS and T gets no check whatsoever. It is very wrong and these companies need to be called out.

Bernie claps back with, "Well yeah but when you stop funnelling billions of dollars into the private insurance corporations there's a lot more money to wokr with"

And not for nothing, people like Maxine Waters have to pay for private security for when she goes to the grocery store because of how much she’s been targeted by T on Twitter. So, nice of Warren to smirk over this topic. Not a good look.
