Once again i had a wonderful time, this time in Anhui! The Wuwangdun tomb is an absolute marvel. Very grateful to Sarah Allan for introducing me to Xu Zaiguo, and then to Xu Zaiguo and Cheng Yan for welcoming me so warmly. Great people all around. Off to Shanghai now!

the thing that strikes me about this — again, besides it being false — is the venom and disrespect for the people who come here to work and build better lives. they aren’t “servants.”

honestly the best part is Newsom laughing in the face of Tapper. Tapper is so much part of the problem
Newsom: They want to wash my mouth out with soap. Without any situational awareness that they've said not a word about Donald Trump dressing up as the Pope. Donald Trump putting his picture up on mount Rushmore. Donald Trump sending insane all cap tweets that are just madness.

The answer is to flood the party with people who will take it over and transform it.

Hey, a lot of people are talking about changing affiliation from Democratic to Independent.
Let me tell you why you shouldn’t do that in Colorado.
One of the main ways to get a primary challenge candidate on a ballot is to caucus for your party. You need to be registered as a Dem to caucus.
