One more thought. Voters will be pissed, but that will likely be short term. My real fear is that millions will decide that their party isn’t fighting for them, so they will give up and stay home in ‘26, just like they did in ‘24.

I see your point. It’s just that Democrats have never had the leverage they have right now, and they are about to lose it. Yes, it’s the responsible thing to do in normal times, but Republicans are not responsible people and these are not normal times. Millions of dem voters will be royally pissed

I never imagined you would be on the wrong side of an issue of this importance.

Planning to resubmit something sitting at 9%. Makes me want to look for another job.

We missed our chance at Pitt. But we wish you all the best with our friends in CBN. Check out The Frog and The Peach first chance you get.

I’ve never been able to catch your AMA sessions. I only read (& love) them. But I woke up this Saturday morning with a haunting question for you. In the not too distant future, when the last immigrant is jailed or deported, what will all those ICE personnel do to pass the time of day? Stay strong.

Glad you are enjoying it.

Analogies are always imperfect, but do think we are replaying (A) China of the 40s & 50s, (B) Germany of the 30s & 40s, or (C) none of the above?

That's Pittsburgh for those who don't know my origin story
