yeah, well, you know, that’s just, like, your opinion man. in the arena.

[Ben Rhodes @brhodes]

In a world increasingly filled with leaders who have changed laws, killed people, and stormed parliaments to cling to power, Joe Biden just flipped the script.

I’m proud to have worked w/ Clayton Harris on his campaign for State’s Attorney.

I’m most proud of how both our campaigns supported the integrity of the ballot counting at @ChicagoElection for 10 days.

Congrats to Eileen O’Neill Burke. Wishing her success in the Nov. election!

[don black @donb036]

Clayton and his team are whip smart, tireless, badass & all the things you wish the opposing campaign wasn’t. They have a lot to be proud of today.

I’ve won campaigns, I’ve lost campaigns. Regardless, I’ve taken heart in the words of Teddy Roosevelt:

[Clayton Harris for Cook County State's Attorney @ClaytonforCook]

I am so proud of the campaign we ran, and I am honored to have had the opportunity to share my vision for a safer and more just Cook County with all of you.

I’ve just called @EileenCookCnty to congratulate her on a hard fought victory. While we have fallen just a bit short of victory, our work is far from over. We must continue to demand accountability, transparency, and fairness from our justice system.

Thank you for your unwavering support. I am truly humbled and grateful.

Eileen O’Neill Burke declares victory in Democratic primary for Cook County State’s Attorney.

[don black @donb036]

I understand tensions are high. Along with dozens of volunteers, lawyers & retired judges on Team Eileen, I've been on-site since Wednesday watching the vote count process. We've seen problems with communicating, not counting. Let's please be patient while the process continues.

Statement from Max Bever, Director of Public Information, Chicago Board of Elections:
“In adding up the total number of Vote By Mail ballots the Board had received back so far, I mistakenly left out additional ballots that had been received back via USPS the evening of Mon, 3/18.

[Eileen O’Neill Burke @EileenCookCnty]

In last month's debate, my closing statement was pretty simple.

If you like the way things are going right now, you have a candidate in this election. It isn't me.

But if you want a fair, professional & effective State's Attorney, then I am your candidate. Watch my full answer:

@KArchPC @EileenCookCnty This is not true. Ken Griffin is not a donor to Eileen’s campaign.

[Jacob Rubashkin @JacobRubashkin]

Former Capitol Police officer Harry Dunn, running in Maryland's 3rd District, raised an astounding $2.75 million in three weeks, according to the ActBlue January report (so the total # is higher).

That's 2x what the entire field had raised as of Dec. 31. Just a massive haul.

the year is 2023. President Joe Biden challenges Speaker Steve Scalise to a push-up contest in order to pass a public option. Joe throws out his shoulder and never recovers. All health care is now banned

Have NEVER seen this on Capitol Hill:

While talking to @RepTimBurchett after the GOP conference meeting, former @SpeakerMcCarthy walked by with his detail and McCarthy shoved Burchett. Burchett lunged towards me. I thought it was a joke, it was not. And a chase ensued...
