Republicans in the Senate — faced with the prospect of losing their sole foothold of power in a deep blue New York — have also suggested that even without Mr. Felder, they could still hold power through 2018 thanks to the rules of Senate, which prevent changes in leadership without a 38-seat majority.

Making a Murderer's first season laid this foundation, and I think a large part of what made that first season so compelling was that the show let its audience form their own judgments about Avery, Dassey, and the people who hold power in this pocket of Wisconsin while slowly introducing new information that could alter those judgments.
" "On one end you might have something more like what you're talking about from Bernie Sanders," he said, "where you've got to name your opponents, you have to name who the enemies are, you have to mobilize against the billionaire class like the only way you're going to get anything is by extracting it from the people who hold power.
The Nineteenth Party Congress, held in October, had the spirit of a coronation, in which the Party declared Xi the "core leader," an honor conferred only three other times since the founding of the nation (on Mao Zedong, Deng, and Jiang Zemin), and added "Xi Jinping Thought" to its constitution—effectively allowing him to hold power for life, if he chooses.
The dissatisfaction stems from a variety of concerns, including the lack of enforcement mechanisms for making good on the promises of unity; the planned timing of the unification, after the all-important budget season in March, allowing Senate Republicans to hold power during that period; and the fact that the I.D.C. had promised to return to the fold before, in 2014.
"Grassroots activism is great, but if the people that actually hold power don't care, or don't take you seriously, or don't listen to you, then the ways that sexism gets upheld don't change," said Shawna Potter, vocalist for feminist punk outfit War on Women and co-founder of Safer Scenes, which distributed information about bystander intervention tactics at last summer's Vans Warped Tour to help combat harassment at music venues and events.
