Populist Dems won. Moderate Dems won. We won in blue states. We won in purple states.
Maybe the take is that (a) people think Trump is out of control; and (b) people like Dems when we're taking a stand and fighting for what we believe in - as we have been for the last month.
"Pope Leo said Scripture emphasizes the question that will be posed at the end of the world:
'How did you receive the foreigner, did you receive him and welcome him, or not? I think there is a deep reflection that needs to be made about what is happening'..."

Mr. "I Don't Take Responsibility At All" thinks the MASSIVE BLUE WAVE was because he wasn't on the ballot, not
a Major Referendum on his 2nd Term.
Turns out folks prefer feeding the hungry over building expen$ive, tacky Ballrooms.

SNAP isnβt saved yet. A judge gave the USDA until Monday to decide how or if benefits go out. They could be delayed, reduced, or partial. Nothingβs guaranteed.
Even if payments restart, states still have to reload cards and update systems, so delays are certain.

As health care premium costs spike, millions of Americans will have to choose between affording groceries and being able to go to the doctor when they get sick.
No one should have to make this choice, and Iβm working to find a path forward.

Law enforcement officers are supposed to make our communities safer β not more dangerous.
Yesterday, I joined my colleagues in demanding accountability for federal law enforcement officers who are breaking the law and using excessive force.
Thatβs unacceptable and un-American.
If you know a family member or friend who relies on SNAP, see people in your community struggling, or if your neighbor just got furloughed:
Check on your loved ones to make sure theyβre OK.

I haven't tried a case for 15 years, and I could litigate rings around these yahoos from DOJ. Good Lord.
Can't get evidence in, can't figure out how to keep evidence out. Just terrible lawyering.
