New Episode: "Can Dems hang on in 2022? GOP seems poised to help" with special guest @RachelBitecofer who breaks down for @robinbiro & @DavidKatzner exactly what it's going to take for Dems to buck the traditional mid-term shellacking https://t.co/lwdEJBfwcc
is it realistic that Biden might find GOP cooperation on his agenda?
Senate leader McConnell: “100% of my focus is standing up to this administration. What we have is total unity, from Collins to Cruz, in opposition to what the new administration is trying to do to this country"
@donwinslow Tucker Carlson is not a journalist, he is a bad person.
Ron Johnson is not a senator, he is a bad person.
Josh Hawley is not an ambitious politician, he is a bad person.
Donald Trump is not a leader, he is a bad person.
Osama Bin Laden was not a rebel, he was a bad person.
This is what happens when they lose elections. Instead of trying to convince voters to vote for them based on a better vision for the future, they just try to get rid of voters they don’t like.
Just voted to confirm @PeteButtigieg as the next U.S. Secretary of Transportation.
Pete has been confirmed by the Senate!
Congratulations, Secretary Buttigieg.
Here’s “unity” Republicans have shown Dems & Biden:
-blocking Dems from taking over Senate to preserve filibuster
-admitting they’ll gerrymander to take back House in 2022
-introducing wave of new laws to make it harder to vote
-opposing covid relief when 440,000 dead
Katie Porter recounts how she and AOC hid in her office during the Jan. 6 insurrectionist riot.
"I'm a mom. I'm calm. I have everything we need. We can live for like a month in this office. And she said, 'I hope I get to be a mom, I hope I don’t die today.'"
Frustrating because while winning the White House convincingly and retaking the Senate by the barest of margins, state races and houses were lost resulting in horrific new laws being put on the books by the corrupt GOP.
Still not convinced that elections have consequences? These are just some of the new, highly restrictive, and unconstitutional voting initiatives being proposed in states with Republican controlled legislatures. #VoterSuppression has never been more alive. #WakeUpAmerica
@DiscourseUSA
Trump’s likely acquittal in the Senate will ensure that Republicans need never fear accountability for their unethical or illegal actions. They will have achieved Herd Impunity. #HerdImpunity
Looks like a brand new, beautiful day wherever you are in America. The gray clouds have parted, the rays of sun are warming our collective souls. Go get confirmed already, we can't wait to see what you will do and the great heights you'll soar to.
Welcome Senator Reverend! We could not be prouder to have had a small part in making this wonderful day possible. Congratulations and let's get to work!
As I'm sworn in today, know that I will be a senator for all Georgians. Whether or not you voted for me, I'll carry your hopes and concerns to Washington.
This is one of my favorite pictures... our President @JoeBiden with our oldest son (at his 1st political event). I’m sure he will forever treasure this picture and the beautiful note.
Today, as I was sworn in, I held in my jacket pocket copies of the ships’ manifests recorded at Ellis Island when my Great Grandfather Israel arrived in 1911 and my Great Grandmother Annie arrived in 1913.
A century later, their great grandson was elected to the U.S. Senate.
