One aspect evident in every book or article I've ever read about the Biden campaign/White House is that, from Biden on down, it was filled with C players who were enormously bitter about being the Dems' C players and so desperate to prove otherwise

@jmart I am begging this generation of Dem campaign staffers to learn how to be intentionally vague when answering a questionnaire. You know, there’s no requirement you have to answer every questionnaire that lands in the campaign’s inbox.
@jmart Her candidacy was doomed the moment Trump won 2024. Name a single GOP candidate who would beat Spanberger in this environment and with modern VA election history going against them.

Deeply hoping he pulls through. We are all people, whatever we believe. That has to come first.
Another weak jobs report confirms: Trump is hurting Virginia’s economy.
While Virginians lose their jobs and struggle to keep up with rising costs, @winwithwinsome cheers him on.

@mattyglesias I don’t think people comprehend how much of the existing infrastructure on the NEC is leftover from the Pennsylvania Railroad. Some of it is so old that Amtrak is forced to cannabilize equipment for parts to keep the system operational.
@mattyglesias Not entirely true. The existing track features tighter turns & older bridges/tunnels which make high speed rail impossible. Not to mention the issues with supplying electrical power + the lack of constant tension in the catenary lines cause them to sag in warmer conditions.
NEW: The Trump admin has plans to send thousands of foreigners to Guantanamo beginning as early as this week, including citizens of close allies UK & France, with no intention of notifying their home governments in advance, per sources and documents
@murphymike She did a better job of connecting her personal story to Kamala’s and framing the American values at stake in this election than every other speaker tonight. Sorry they don’t teach message discipline in the GOP anymore.
