Leaders who demand credit for everything that goes right and distance themselves from everything that goes wrong are not leaders. They are called dictators.

Really looking forward to the Speaker of the House claiming to be unaware of the election results.

Seems like a good time for the Speaker of the House to swear in Rep. Grijalva.

AOC: We know that Donald Trump has not only been convicted of committing crimes, but that the supreme court has given him a blank check to continue to commit crimes while in office. So we cannot underestimate the threat and the danger of this moment. But we cannot respond to that with cowardice.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

I am no longer employed so I'm not blogging Zohran tonight but I can just repeat exactly what I said in June :-)

he won on the back of a pro-migrant, pro-trans, pro-working class campaign. and also: Dem pundits are full of shit

Looking forward to learning all about how the right should move left to win elections tomorrow. They should maybe dye their hair pink, learn to love pronouns.

I don't think the Democrats should participate in funding the government when the insane president is shrieking that his word is law and that the constitution and declaration of independence are both dead
Trump says the SNAP money that he’s been ordered by a court to release won’t be released until the government shutdown ends.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Raju: Last week, you were very critical of Biden, you said he didn’t even know who was pardoning. On 60 minutes, Trump admitted not knowing he pardoned a crypto billionaire guilty of money laundering. Is that also concerning?

Johnson: I don’t know anything about it.

Trump is too busy playing MAGA Mad Libs instead of answering how to help Americans make ends meet.

These aren’t the words of a leader who actually cares.

I see that CBS chose not to air this part. It probably explains much of what they did decide to air.
