I'm going to start publicly calling out campaigns that text me because they bought my number from a list. Not just because I've run out of patience, but because if *I* am this annoyed, then I can't even imagine what it's doing to Democrats' reputation among casual voters.

Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?"

Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do.

Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.
Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

New on MSNBC: Vice President Harris will fly back to Los Angeles today with an all-female U.S. Air Force crew — the first time an all-female crew has operated a C-33.
 
Upon landing, Harris will visit a local fire station and then distribute food to community members impacted by the wildfires.

Wipe your tears.
This is the difficult business of hope and defying expectation.
We do not give up.
We run through the tape.

If your opponent can run on a platform of, literally, bloody revenge against the genetically inferior peoples polluting our nation, and somehow this gets characterized as being more moderate than being Little Miss Business Tax Credits, I think your issue is bigger than "we gotta tack center"

Kind of remarkable to see Jared Polis torch his entire persona and political career praising an anti-vaxxer and homophobe. One single tweet to end it all. Kind of impressive if it wasn’t so pathetic.

One of the things that would make a Trump win extra unsettling is I don't know what Harris could have done differently to win the election and I don't know what Trump could have done differently to lose it

There are Dem voters in Mississippi, the most suppression-y state, spending the equivalent of a workday in line to vote in an election that will be immediately called against them. And I think about that a lot. People really not trying to go down without a fight.

questions an enterprising political reporter in an influential newsroom could ask a trump spokesperson:

“what percentage of americans does trump think are scum?”

“what does trump propose to do with the americans he says are scum?”

“are these the same americans trump describes as vermin?”
