Forcing the AG to publicly defend every redaction, line-by-line, would be a fun exercise.
Schiff: "I think we ought to bring Pam Bondi before the Senate Judiciary Committee demand answers as to why the DOJ has violated the law."

My response to the NYT’s “moderate to win” argument: The data shows the strategy is tapped out. Being seen as moderate by voters doesn’t boost votes, replacing every progressive with moderates would net 0 seats, and the graveyard of defeated D incumbents if full of moderates, not progressives.
The New York Times Argues “Moving to the Center Is the Way to Win.” But the Data Shows the Strategy Is Tapped Out.
Democrats already run moderates in nearly every swing district. It's not enough. A data-driven response to the case for centrism as a core electoral strategy.

Lately I've seen many references to the 3.5% rule. A few years ago I pulled together this Q&A on potential uses and misuses of this statistic. www.hks.harvard.edu/sites/defaul...

I'm proud of Sen Dick Durbin for keeping his cool...I'm not sure that they could hold me back from slapping Bondi. She's so fucking disrespectful.

Durbin: "What's happening in Illinois is outrageous. To think they're going to federalize the Texas National Guard and send them into my state is not only necessary, it's almost criminal."

2) Pam Bondi hasn't been told to fuck off enough.

Random thoughts...
I think that men like R Kelly & S Combs wear sunglasses so often (even indoors) because it hides their dead/evil eyes. Seriously...they're older they get the more black in color their eyes look when you see them. Like there's no soul there...like, at all. Just a monster.

When Republicans talk about “shifting people off Medicaid,” what they’re really saying is: “We’re taking away your health care, and we won’t help you get it back.”
