Why Senate Dems are prepared to swallow a border policy compromise (www.politico.com)

A growing number of Senate Democrats appear open to making it harder for migrants to seek asylum in order to secure Republican support for aiding Ukraine and Israel.

This is what the democrats stand for. Unlimited funding for the MIC and border-control, but social issues are not a priority.

Stop voting for the parties of Capital.

If those votes get high enough to start impacting elections, they’ll change their policies/candidates to attract new voters.

Honestly, I don't even really believe that'll happen-- but that won't stop me. I've come to the regrettable conclusion that the Democrats will never be anything more than the velvet liner covering the iron gauntlet that is the Republican party; and the things it'd take to disabuse me of that notion, the CIA has killed people for attempting before.
