If Shri Thanedar loses, don't expect it to reverberate w/ House Dems the way the Espaillat and DeGette losses did.
"No one is staying up at night worrying about him," one House Dem told @axios
Said another: "I don't think anybody would miss him at all."

“Sen. Ed Markey calls it “a head-spinning ritual” — if his head spins when the clock changes, maybe that’s a sign he’s too old to do the job of a U.S. Senator” https://t.co/topYY6dizw
The stupid push for permanent Daylight Saving Time combines the three dysfunctions that drive our politics today: ignorance of history, failure to consider trade-offs, and whining that is vastly disproportionate to the problem at hand. https://t.co/VkHh5YAly6
The Taco Bell finger pointing is a psyop to redirect attention from the real culprit, the deregulation and lack of oversight in our food supply. pass it along and live más comrade
Massie: "I don't think the problem is that our elections aren't secure because we control the House, Senate, White House, and to some degree we control the Supreme Court. So I ask my Republican colleagues, why are you complaining about election fraud? We won all the damn elections!"
Tom Cotton remains the sole sane voice on this issue. Permanent daylight savings would mean driving to school and work in pitch black during parts of the year. More car accidents, more depression, we tried it before and America hated it.
Aides expect Sen. Cotton to block permanent daylight savings bill. He gave a long speech in 2025 explaining his opposition -- and his mistake in letting it pass four years ago
"I didn’t personally object in 2022 for two reasons. First, I hadn’t adequately communicated to my staff the depth of my opposition to this bill. Second, because of a miscommunication, I expected another senator who also opposed the bill to object. I take full responsibility for this mistake, though the search for someone else to blame is actively ongoing"
It’s a ploy by Big Golf to fleece regular Americans by making them live in darkness until 10am so they can keep their courses open later and make more money
All I’m saying is that it shouldn’t surprise you that the sponsors of both the House and Senate versions of this bill happen to be from the state with the most golf courses
Confirmed: Sen. Cotton still opposes the permanent daylight saving time bill and is not alone
A source says "Senator Cotton has the same concerns he’s had for years about this proposal, but he is far from alone. Senators Thune, Wicker, Fischer, Moran, Sullivan, Budd, Sheehy, Klobuchar, Peters, Duckworth, Rosen, and Blunt-Rochester all voted against making daylight savings time permanent in the Senate Commerce Committee. This isn’t really a partisan issue, it’s a geographic issue"
The late sunrises in the winter are a big concern of opponents and they point to the fact that Congress already tried this once and people didn't like it. Graphic-->
If any politician told me to put on a skirt if I wanted access to his response to a mass shooting that story would have been filed to my editor within 10 minutes.
