@kenmartin73@JamesSkoufis In the 2022 cycle, the DNC raised about $307 million, about $50 million more than for the 2025-2026 cycle. https://t.co/F2ZlwDMDoH And the DNC was out raised by the RNC by about $100 million in this cycle. https://t.co/y0Q9OSKp7r
"Okay guys, we just won a huge Senate majority because a bunch of moderate voters in red states who are sick of Trump voted for us. What's our opening move on policy?"
"I know! Let Elizabeth Warren ban credit cards!"
@atrupar That tarmac meeting likely caused Hillary Clinton to lose the election. Loretta Lynch would not have had to recuse herself, Comey would not have been in charge of what should be announced publicly and the two famous Comey news conferences probably never would’ve happened
@daveweigel Maybe Jeffries didn’t want to start everything post election with an impeachment that is not likely to result in a conviction because there won’t be 67 votes in the Senate.
I’m sorry, but at some point, serious people who care about the Republican party and care about the future of the conservative movement are going to need to come to terms with the fact that there is a very dark undercurrent on the new right. The problem isn’t that many of the intelligentsia are actually antisemitic, the problem is that in order to push some of the more radical ideas that they want to accomplish, they need to constantly not piss off and appease the fire throwers who are in fact antisemitic.
Anti-Semitism is the primary indicator that a society is extremely diseased. That’s not me saying it, that’s decades of history, more than decades.
The tent cannot be open enough to include people who have horrific ideas that have never been successful, and that are based on dark and vile bigotry.
@daveweigel Haha. He decided to run again with dementia. His selfishness and ego as well as the enormous selfishness of his family and those around him will be his defining moment in the history books. It really is very sad.
@BulwarkOnline@neeratanden How do the Ds do either? Are there 11 R senate votes and 30 R house votes for those policies - starting January 3, that’s what would be necessary to override a veto.
Article 6 of the Hegseth impeachment charges is basically a slam dunk. If I were the Democrats I would somehow strip the indictment of all the others and focus on the retaliation against Mark Kelly, which defines "abuse of office."
@MattZeitlin@daveweigel Careful not to jump the gun. In some ways, this was a unique election focused on a single person. Whether the same results would ensue on a long term basis without that person is a question.
Sure, and watch everyone with a credit score under 750 see their credit cards cancelled by the banks.
I bet they'll love having to instead rely on payday loans, pawn shops, and local loan sharks to provide quick credit in a pinch.
@NRO@NoahCRothman Looks like with the Steven Miller appointment and the election of Jim Jordan as minority leader, the Republican Party is truly focused on the future.
