Zoe Lofgren's report on the GOP/anarchists who colluded and conspired with the anarchist invaders. Coloradan anarchists fighting police, overturning a car, having a big sulk because of masks. More police murders of black people. Looks to me we're witnessing turmoil that will only settle down when the anarchists are castrated.
Do you know of any visualizations or articles showing the ideological breakdowns of Republican voters comparable to this link? I really like this one from Pew about Democratic voters but haven’t been able to find something similar for Republicans.
The more difficult to avoid pervasive sources of aggregated polling error, such as partisan nonresponse, pose a enlarged serious risk to the accuracy and trustworthiness of a national resource, the polling industry. Can we call upon government, notably the federal government, for some aid? The federal government has the resources, time perspective, ability to compel, and incentive to provide benchmarks that lesser survey researchers might use to calibrate their weightings.
Minimum Wage seems like the kind of thing that'll get some level of bi-partisan support. Do you think it'll have a gradual increase to $15? Or will it be set at a lower level ($11?) and we'll see greater movement at the state level? Also tied to inflation would likely take some of the wind out of this argument, but is that likely?
I've been following Biden's cabinet confirmations for a while now and Biden's cabinet is being confirmed at slowest pace of any cabinet in modern history. Given the history of Republican obstruction in Congress during the Obama administration and now the Biden administration, it appears that Republicans and their voters do not believe a Democrat should be allowed legitimately govern the country. We know that a lot Republicans voters do not believe the election was legitimate. This is a huge long term problem for the United States. In the short term, how is the government expected to function during a national crisis?

We need Breyer to retire as soon as possible..

Maybe I am just googling the wrong thing.

Hi Elliott,

I hope you are having a good weekend,
Elliot

If someone offered you 3-1 odds on Dems eliminating the filibuster for any additional kinds of bills, would you take that deal?
