How the Meltdown Became an Insurrection

  

 

How The Meltdown Became An Insurrection

January 6th is not an anomaly — it is part of a larger story.

 

David Sirota:


The Republican Party is now a 
corporate-sponsored insurrection creeping through right-wing media, state legislatures, and Congress…

 

Democrats have coupled this pro-democracy theater with high-profile betrayals of the working class — from dropping a $15 minimum wage to ending the expanded child tax credit, to refusing to eliminate student debt, to killing paid family and sick leave proposalsin the middle of a pandemic. Most recently, Biden’s spokesperson scoffed at the idea of delivering free COVID tests to people’s homes, Biden’s consultants aided Big Pharma’s efforts to kill promised drug-pricing legislation, and Biden’s White House is promising no more stimulus legislation, no matter how much worse the pandemic gets.
