Ok Dems,
I know it has been a helluva day and I know no one wants to hear this. But we need to get our shit together, pick a new leader of the party, coalesce behind them and do everything - and I mean everything - to make it to 2026.
Today we grieve.
Tomorrow we fight.

Elon Musk and JD Vance's Support of Germany's Nazi-Loving AfD Party Should Be Much Bigger News
Elon Musk & J.D. Vance tweeted in support of the AfD Party whose racist, anti-immigrant ideologies are shared by a terrorist who just killed 5 people in Germany. Maybe it's not "economic anxiety."

Republicans are advancing a bill that would fire all government workers - including Veterans - from offices related to diversity, equity, and inclusion, banning them from being reassigned.

So there was a red mirage after all: Over the weekend, Trump's share of the popular vote slipped below 50%--to 49.96%. It will continue to decline as California completes its tally over the next week. Kamala Harris currently has 48.24% of the popular vote.” — Robert Hubbell (11/18/24)

It’s not the inequity that Gaetz could never pass the background investigation for the lowest level professional at DOJ. It’s the reported conduct that poses risks, possibly grave, to the national security and also fundamental character issues. There must be a full-field background investigation.

Biden approves Ukraine’s use of long-range U.S. weapons inside Russia, reversing policy
The Biden administration will allow Kyiv “limited” use of the ATACMS long-range missile system to strike enemy positions in Kursk, a significant reversal of U.S. policy.

Gaetz resigned effective immediately.
This is to kill the ethics investigation — without a report being released.
But now, if he doesn’t get confirmed as AG, he’s out of government. Fingers crossed.
