Some things I’m doing:
1. Not being shocked, not going down rabbit holes. I paid attention during the campaign & learned a lot during 2016-2020.
2. Taking care of my body.
3. Carefully choosing when I engage with the news and the sources themselves.

So funny to me how people are trying to figure out what’s going on with Aaron Rodger’s and his alleged wife. He is a crazy person. Whether or not she exists is (perhaps literally) neither here nor there.

@fetterman.senate.gov since you’ve disabled voicemail (long before the shutdown) I will tell you here: as a constituent, I do not want you to give in to trump and end the shutdown without getting a deal on healthcare subsidies.
Every disaffected Dem & swing focus group we do begins with people asking what's real. They hear, at times, this is authoritarian takeover threatening lives & livelihoods. But perceive most "leaders" not acting as if this were so.

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office.
If you're represented by one of the squishier centrists, be sure to make a call. Now.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

I'm hearing the same thing. Dems are nearing a surrender. I'm shocked. Largest protest in history + best election night in years + polling showing we're kicking their ass in public opinion. And now Dems may cave.
It ain't over til it's over, so please do call if you've got a Dem senator.

BREAKING: Democrats make history and break super majority in deep red Mississippi.
Republicans now have 34 seats in the Mississippi Senate, one short of a super majority. No one expected this.

I’ll be watching Allegheny County Council races closely tonight.
Districts 1 and 3, are both open seats where Kamala Harris won by 4 points. Will Democrats improve on that?
Trump won Districts 4 and 9 by a single point. Can the GOP flip Dem-held council seats there?
Will Alex Rose’s gambit work??

Too busy reporting to tweet much and you know the big stories already. So this is just an aside ... but to me this is the best evidence yet that in a hyperpartisan climate, cross filing just doesn't help.

So, because the Allegheny County, PA (Pittsburgh) Council mandates seats for minority parties, the Democrats were never able to unseat at-large Republican Councilman Mike Embrescia.
So, they ran a left-wing Independent and he's winning easily!
