*Social democracy not Democratic socialism.
I know that's what he says he is but he's actually a social democrat.
Why didn’t Rep. Tulsi Gabbard join 169 of her colleagues in denouncing Trump appointee Stephen Bannon?

Tulsi is a republican with a couple of liberal stances.
Yep. One of the most conservative Dems in the house based on voting record. I wonder if Bernie bros will go through her record like they did Beto.

She voted against letting Syrian refugees into the U.S. and she did say in the right circumstances she would be cool with torture. Not really a policy thing just an opinion she expressed. Besides that, I really don't know.
In regards to the last tweet,
Its hard to cover the plutocracy when you're working for the plutocrats themselves. At least when it comes to mainstream media.

Sherrod Brown is starting to become the *potential* candidate I'm most interested in learning about. I actually like that he's taking a realistic stance on M4A. I'm not into candidates selling pie in the sky shyt that can't be accomplished in a four year presidency, likely not an 8 year presidency either. Cats want to see us take 10 steps left and do it all at once, that's not how it works 
Rather see a candidate come in and actually move the needle 3-4 steps as opposed to promising 10 steps and getting almost nowhere due to the level of opposition. Our move right wasn't just done in one fell swoop under Raegan (something many progressive tend to rely on as an argument for the need for a super progressive nominee), it continued through Bush Sr, Clinton and Bush Jr., it's going to take more than one presidency to course correct.

Right. She's like Dianne Feinstein in that her voting record is far too conservative than it should be given where she represents.
