Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

It’s great to see the team playing with hunger again. It must have been pretty toxic under Rodgers at the end.

This scenario shows how complete the takeover has been. Impeach and you get Vance; lose Vance and you get Johnson. The worst series of Succession ever.
Impeachment and removal is the obvious, required remedy.
The longer you wait the more damage is done and the harder it will be for any of you to salvage any personal dignity at all.

General Haugh has served our country in uniform, with honor and distinction, for more than 30 years. At a time when the United States is facing unprecedented cyber threats, as the Salt Typhoon cyberattack from China has so clearly underscored, how does firing him make Americans any safer?
