Well sounds like the Democratic leadership to aggressively court disgruntled voters and listening and addressing their concerns is off to a great start with this.

    Massey, the Republican on the outs, told the dems they have to actually hold out for something concrete.

    Jesus christ, maybe massey should be appointed to lead. How are there no challenges to democratic leadership? Not now, not, ever? What is wrong with the party? What is wrong with us for accepting this?

            Oh? Do you mean like this?

            In February 2017, Massie introduced a one-page bill that would abolish the United States Department of Education,[59] and cosponsored a bill that would abolish the Environmental Protection Agency.[60]

            Or

            On December 29, 2017, Massie voted for the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.[64] Before voting, he said he would support the bill to cut taxes, but that he would oppose “new government spending,” despite the $1.5 trillion estimated to be added to the national debt according to the Congressional Budget Office in the wake of the bill being passed.[65][66]

            Or

            On April 10, 2019, during former United States secretary of state John Kerry’s testimony to the House Oversight and Reform Committee, Massie called Kerry’s political science degree from Yale University a “pseudoscience degree” and called Kerry’s position on climate change “pseudoscience.” Kerry responded, “Are you serious? I mean this is really a serious happening here?”[73]

            Or how about this doozy:

            In July 2021, Massie voted against the bipartisan ALLIES Act, which would increase by 8,000 the number of special immigrant visas for Afghan allies of the U.S. military during its invasion of Afghanistan, while also reducing some application requirements that caused long application backlogs

            Turns out Israel isn’t the only fucking issue in the US. Maybe don’t be so fucking myopic.
