Every snowfall in Milwaukee our dog does the same thing. Walk outside, sees the snow, turns back around giving a look like "Why did you do this?"

(Once he gets in the snow, he loves it)

the primaries next year are the first real opportunity we have to begin the process of breaking and rebuilding the dem party into something even capable of thinking about (1) and (2), let alone achieving it. it's on ALL of us to try.

President Trump is getting pulled deeper and deeper into the Epstein drama just because of the long-ago actions of somebody called “Donald Trump.” It’s really quite unfair.
