Not for inciting an insurrection or anything serious, of course. Just for petty name-calling.

We should fully expect that anyone running for high office be held to the same standard. Certainly, Congress has no hypocrites amongst their ranks.

Neera tanden sucks tho. She helped cut welfare when she was in the clinton white house, she busted unions at thinkprogress, and her thinktank cap is funded by the health insurance industry to attack medicare for all

She is definitely not qualified to be the budget office head, but she sure does have presidential qualifications!

Not really "accountability," that was a confirmation that wasn't going to go through. For sitting politicians who were actually torpedoed by tweets, one of the dickwad congressmen from my state led a charge to get another congressman kicked off a committee for sharing Sandy Hook conspiracy theories. Meanwhile sitting politicians rarely seem to get in much trouble for trading insults, and many where elected after lobbing insults.

But if we're talking deliberately ignored news, I've noticed that *nobody* on this board has once brought up the allegations against Cuomo despite there being photos of him sexually harassing women when they'd previously lent every credence under the sun to accusations against other politicians where all you had was one person's word. Why is that?

https://www.cnn.com/2021/03/02/politics/andrew-cuomo-anna-ruch/index.html

The #MeToos have been piling up yet (unwanted comments, unwanted kissing, years of harassing some staffers, etc) the usual suspects have remained quiet about the subject.

Maybe you ought to be held accountable for spreading debunked conspiracy theories.

People are getting sick of extremists, time to toe party lines that not just applies to activists, but politicians as well.

The problem with our politicians today is that they are taking to twitter and act more like the kardashians than elected representatives with the respect of their office.

thats a bi-partisan condemnation by the way.
