@tyrelltaagard @ECaliberSeven So at best they'd be trading one vacancy for another. At worst, CO-3 is winnable for Dems.

[YaBoyColby @colbycakes]

@tyrelltaagard @ECaliberSeven I don't think she needs to resign to run (although practically, she'll be so busy campaigning that they'll still in effect be -1), but she would need to resign to take the CO-4 seat.

@RMSolitayre @EAlluia @whstancil This appears to assume that OP is running for office and must court votes by telling them what they want to hear regardless of the truth. I’m not sure that that’s true.

MC is, for a lot of great reasons, a long shot, but it’s the one I want the most.

And now it's official: TB and Oakland are settled. So MLB will now turn its mind in earnest to expanding by two teams. On the table are Nashville, Portland, Charlotte, Montreal, Salt Lake City and Mexico City.

Nashville seems to be a frontrunner so that leaves one more spot.

It’s really cool to work for this guy.

“The state that took in my ancestors, fleeing pogroms in Ukraine, will not allow asylum seekers to freeze to death on our doorstep. They are cold, so we will keep them warm. They are hungry, so we will feed them. They need our help, so we must do what we can”- @GovPritzker #twill

Biden has said the same thing and is even requesting money to help Palestinians.

[YaBoyColby @colbycakes]

@schlagteslinks It’s entirely possible, it’s just that it is not consistent with contemporaneous election results.

[YaBoyColby @colbycakes]

@RihannaFreak20 The theory is that Biden and Biden alone has unique problems that don’t transfer to other Dems. I don’t find it too compelling, but it’s possible.

@LPDonovan Like, 3 things we know about McCarthy: 1) he’s no less risk-averse than most pols: 2) he’s afraid of the right flank of his party; 3) he’s fine breaking faith with Dems. All of that augers against him giving Dems something they’d want had he survived.

[YaBoyColby @colbycakes]

@LPDonovan No way. If McCarthy had barely survived and only thanks to Dems, he was going to be *more* risk-averse. That means not doing the same things that got him in trouble the first time.

@ErikLoomis The moral compromises necessary to pull off a general strike are orders of mag to use greater than that of “vote for Biden.”

[YaBoyColby @colbycakes]

@beermesportball @ArmandDoma Like, I admitted that I didn’t see everything out there, so I don’t understand your need for gratuitous personal insults.

[YaBoyColby @colbycakes]

@beermesportball @ArmandDoma Wow, you just went from zero to sixty on that one, didn’t you?

[YaBoyColby @colbycakes]

@ArabsForBernie @jmart @daveweigel Manchin and Bernie actually oddly get along.

@DipshitDmocrats @bigseb31213 @whstancil @opinonhaver (In reality, between the SAVE program and his PSLF reforms, I’ve gotten way more than $10k in forgiveness from Biden. But I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings, there’s already plenty of people on Twitter who can do that better than me.)

[YaBoyColby @colbycakes]

@DipshitDmocrats @bigseb31213 @whstancil @opinonhaver Look, it was a simple joke based on the obvious typo. If you tell me that it upset you, I’ll delete.

[YaBoyColby @colbycakes]

@Suiter_LA @victoriaacas TBF the far right runs the US down a lot nowadays, too.

[YaBoyColby @colbycakes]

@ArmandDoma Don’t surveys indicate that people think their personal finances are fine, they just think *everyone else* is suffering? If so, this “dissociate from our wallets” stuff is silly.
