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.

Republicans who think your seat is safe: no it's not
Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.

It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.

I've done a lot of things in the name of freedom. I don't think that as a country, it matters anymore.
I'm free where I stand, and you'd have to pry it from my cold, dead hands to take it.
Tell me the worst thing you did for freedom and how you persevered its idea within you afterwards?

Republicans shut the government down so they could raise health costs for 22M Americans, 80% of whom live in states Trump won.
Couples earning $32K could see premiums jump to $1,300; at $53K, costs double to $4,240; at $95K, premiums soar to $19K.
4.8M could lose coverage entirely.

The old line holds true: "By uniting we stand, by dividing we fall."
That's as true for Nebraska Democrats today as it was for the founders.
Let's stand together with our neighbors. Lancaster folks, go follow the Douglas County Dems!
