Not a day goes by that I don't wonder why I didn't take myself seriously much sooner.

My youngest son is 3yrs + 8mths and let me tell you...the last 6 months have made all the difference.

He had been behind his older brother in speech/development by about 6 months and my wife was concerned. I wasn't, because I saw all the signs that he was processing things. He just wasn't talking.

In my old town the GOP had run basically without serious challenge for decades. A bunch of us "millennials" joined the local Dem party and basically asked to help.

We were running it in a year. Within 4 years we had a majority of town seats flipped Dem. A FAR more progressive Dem than old party
“Rather than taking over the Democratic Party the same way the right took over the Republican Party, we should take the easier route and just start up a new party ourselves!”

It’s what happens when you’re owned by corporations.

Each of the senators who voted yes take money from the airlines.
The senate democrats didn’t cave over SNAP, you’re being too generous with them. They caved over cancelled flights.

This is where the "party" ground gets muddied, re: Democracy ending.

Democrats are a better choice than Republicans because they don't want democracy to end and create a Christian white-nationalist state, but then there's that American pastime of corporations owning your elected officials 🤷🏽‍♂️

That’s just it. In the Democratic Party, the question isn’t moderate or leftist right now. It’s whether or not a dem understands that the old political playbook for dealing with the right is obsolete.
One point worth emphasizing here: The punditry has been saying Sherrill (and Spanberger) represent the sane centrist wing of the party versus the left. Well, okay, but here Sherrill is urging more fight. Again, the results show that anti-Trump + affordability can *unite* the party. This shows how.
This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week

Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

Abolish the Senate
A deal has been reached to reopen the U.S. government through January, possibly ending a 40 day shutdown. It promises voting on ACA bill of Dems choosing by the end of the second week of December.

Still wild to me that the average price of a home is around $350k, with the average first time buyer now in their 40s.

Like, the jump from pre-COVID to now is not something a young couple can fix by saving a few extra bucks a month.
