    Billionaires are going to keep doing shit like this to give the impression that neoliberals still control the party to depress primary turnout

    No matter what happens, we have to make sure a neoliberal doesn’t make it to the general with a D by their name. Because if they win they name the next DNC chair, and neoliberals won’t let go again.

    Nothing matters more than a progressive winning the next Dem presidential primary

    What’s the issue? Shes qualified and a domain expert. The company is wanting to do a merger and needs to navigate the merger. Hiring someone like this to help you navigate government affairs isnt corrupt. In no world would this not happen. Im sure shell do a great job at making the case and trying to compromise and build a consensus but that isnt corruption.

      Paramount in it’s current form is already corruption. It shouldn’t have ever been allowed to happen. It’s simply a stain she seems willing to accept in exchange for money.
