Biden: So, folks, that's my message to all of us today, to all who love our country, to all of us are dismayed by the present state of the union: it's time to get up, get up and fight back. Get up. Continue to fight. What's the fight all about? Protecting the constitution.

Scott: And I don’t think it’s out of the realm of possibility to get to a 10–1 map, in light of the shellacking we just put on the Republicans in Virginia. Abigail Spanberger won by 15 points. We went from a 51–49 majority in the House of Delegates to a 64–36 majority.

It looks like Tom Cotton was being deceptive by saying video shows the men trying to flip boat "loaded with drugs." As I reported, Ds who saw video say no drugs were visible/boat was crippled.
Q for Rs is simple: Did you see drugs and was boat incapacitated, or no?

Hardly any of them, I suspect.
