Pete Hegseth needs to resign or be fired. Now. He’s a walking, talking national security embarrassment.
The disastrous and illegal Venezuela strikes - and his refusal to accept responsibility - should be the last straw.

I got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.

I'm looking to see not only which Senate Dem candidates oppose this surrender (all of them will) but also where they go beyond this with respect to senate leadership.
I want to see concrete promises for a new fighting Dem Party, because the current one is broken.

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"

Newsom: "Think about the state of mind of the VP. How do you square the circle when you go to a prayer breakfast? Old testament, new testament. What's the fundamental thing that connects John to Matthew to Proverbs? It's this notion of hunger, feeding the poor. It's central to advancing God's will."

As people go onto the health care enrollment websites, and see that Trump has doubled their premium, the pressure on Republicans to fix this will mount. This isn't get easier for Republicans. It's getting harder.

The Tuesday election was a message to Democrats to keep fighting. People are scared at what Trump is doing to their lives and our democracy. And they desperately want the opposition party to stand up to him, not willingly get run over.

Populist Dems won. Moderate Dems won. We won in blue states. We won in purple states.
Maybe the take is that (a) people think Trump is out of control; and (b) people like Dems when we're taking a stand and fighting for what we believe in - as we have been for the last month.
