David Sirota: This talking point about it being OK because everyone was doing it has been repeated ad nauseum throughout the week — it’s almost as if it is being directly coordinated and liberal pundits and groups are just parroting it to suck up to power...

David Sirota: “If you pushed for Social Security cuts the last time Congress debated the issue, it doesnt counts because Obama did too” is the most pathetic form of apologism & yet this is the talking point from liberals seeking to kiss the ass of the new administration https://t.co/xCPlqvV0e7

David Sirota: Professional liberal advocacy groups, pundits & elites in Washington are selling you out to get themselves access and fancy White House titles from the next president. It’s a pathetic display, but at least it is so blatant that there’s no denying it. https://t.co/pBY6lH7jnm

David Sirota: Class solidarity among elites transcends party, ideology and principles — these people will stick together and sell out their own missions in order to maintain their social status. Sad but true — and it will have long term consequences.

David Sirota: The thing we really need are union leaders defending union busters, climate groups defending fossil fuel proponents and Social Security advocacy groups defending people who pushed Social Security cuts. That’s just what we need right now to make sure nothing fundamentally changes!

David Sirota: Things you can do and still remain in Good Standing for a Cabinet job among Beltway liberal groups: - Back the Iraq War - Bail out and not prosecute Wall St after the financial crisis - Push Social Security cuts - Push fracking amid a climate crisis https://t.co/pBY6lH7jnm

David Sirota: Might be cool if Beltway liberal elites circled the wagons and defended, say, union rights or Medicare for All with the same determination and vigor as they cheerily defend a Wall Street funded think tank and its leader who pushed Social Security cuts https://t.co/pBY6lH7jnm

David Sirota: The last promise of the neoliberal-Wall Street agenda is to privatize retirement. Now seems like a good time to remind corporatists to #PassTheBaton to the left: https://t.co/WjyY4y5n1W https://t.co/hWVOTm8zGL

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: My comments were directed at Republicans who mock my history in service work. That includes President Trump, who you’ve stood by and defended through such attacks, by the way. But if that boorishness doesn’t apply to you, then why feel the rush to defend yourself?

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: These Republicans who are defensively rage-tweeting “But you’re wrong! I worked my way to pay through college!!” don’t realize they sound like folks who speak of the days when Hershey bars were 5¢ at the general store.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: College costs have exploded over the last 10-20 years & wages have not kept up. It’s a totally different landscape and the fact they’re using anecdotal experience from 20+ years ago to reinforce their opinions instead of looking at current cost/wage data is disturbing.

David Sirota: It's taken next to no time for the rationale for voting Biden - "we'll push him left" - to be completely abandoned as progressive groups, pundits & lawmakers sign off on his terrible picks. To push him left you have to, you know, actually push. https://t.co/zTGYp898dW

David Sirota: It’s weird how the Vietnam War haunted American culture for 40 years and many of its proponents were shamed out of public life, while the Iraq War is treated as if it didn’t even happen and most of its proponents saw their careers advance
