Democrat to the core. Retired journalist. Still miss DC, especially since I'm living in the nightmare state of Missouri. Cats and wine bring me joy.

Tuberville is such a dunderhead. I'd be happy to see him out of the Senate, but it's a sad situation for the citizens of Alabama if he wins there.

The last straw for me was reading that Schumer worked with Thune on the language discreetly inserted to give Hawley and the other insurrectionist senators the ability to sue for massive damages for merely having their phone logs looked at by the FBI.
