It’s not yet 7am. I’ve been up for 2 hours. I’ve sung Frère Jacques approximately 10 times and done This Little Piggy at least that much with my daughter. My son is requesting that I blare Feliz Navidad at a volume that is borderline criminal. Life is pretty good.

Jasmine Crockett is amazing, and she will certainly drive turnout. But I don't see how she drives more Democrats to turn out for her than Republicans to turn out against her.
My expectation is that she can't beat Cornyn or Paxton. My fear is that she drags congressional candidates down with her.

Unpack the Court has to be the highest priority.
What depresses me is noticing that the democrats are clearly doing sod all for 2029, and reforming this court needs to be at the top of the list. A cynic might think they see at as a feature, not a bug at this point.
