If anyone’s still inclined to #bothsides ANYTHING, they should have to explain why Trump and the GOP spent all day protesting and suing to stop vote counts where they’re ahead, while demanding that vote counts continue where they’re behind, while Dems just say count every vote.

Senator Lana Theis accused me by name of grooming and sexualizing children in an attempt to marginalize me for standing up against her marginalizing the LGBTQ community...in a fundraising email, for herself. Hate wins when people like me stand by and let it happen. I won't.

This will probably get glossed over, but Trump's basic proposition really was lay off me or I'll sabotage the country and make war abroad. It's a profound, extortionate betrayal of his oath.

Seems like the smart thing for Kavanaugh opponents to do now is spend a week driving home the fact that Kavanaugh lied his ass off about a ton of stuff, not just Ford. Make Republicans have to answer for those lies, as well as the assault allegations.

Ever since centrists insisted on cleaving Build Back Better in half, the progressive position has been ‘ok you get your bill, we get ours.’ The centrists, in alignment with corporate interests, have been trying to figure out how to blow up the deal for weeks. All out in the open.

If Warnock goes into the runoff with 50 Dem seats locked in, it takes some of the heat off him and the race, but his victory remains crucial, even with a divided Congress, because it’ll give Senate Dem committee chairs subpoena power.

After spending 4 years spreading conspiracy theories about Benghazi, another four years engaging in a coverup of the Russia scandal, then trying to overturn the election, Republicans have pivoted shamelessly to pretending to care about unity. We should all laugh in their faces.

1) Florida is fast at counting mail ballots. 2) Florida is filled with seniors. 3) If Trump discourages Republicans from voting absentee there during a pandemic, Biden wins the state, and thus the whole election, ON ELECTION NIGHT. 4) Ergo, the below tweet.
