Tonight at 6:30, I will discuss the Democratic sweep that seems "too big to rig," based on the Trump administration's tepid appetite for election litigation. That, plus shocking results in Texas, Iowa, Kansas, and Mississippi!
Going Live at 6:30 ET.

We also have to thank Marc Elias for his tireless pursuit of justice. Fighting all the illegal things and BS cases that Trump tried to use to steal the election.
Thank you Sir

Katherine Clark: "There is one image that has stuck with me. It's the video of the memorial to Alex Pretti and Renee Good. It is covered with 'I Voted' stickers. Hundreds and hundreds of people went to that memorial and put that sticker there. Each one placed by an American who cast their ballot in the ultimate act of hope."

Democrats must be absolutely ruthless now.
No “healing the nation”. No “moving on”, no “reconciliation”, no “bridging the gaps”. No “if they go low, we go high”. No Obamism.
Subpoena, impeach, prosecute, imprison. Trumpism is criminal & should be treated as such.

The big lesson of the Biden years is that you have to prosecute these people. You can’t just move on. You need to make the next generation of grifters and hate mongers scared for their lives.

On Election Day, the American people spoke loud and clear: they are done with the corruption, incompetence, and callousness coming from the White House and the capitulation of Republican leaders. As I traveled the country to campaign for Democrats up and down the ballot, I witnessed the resolve of the people to turn pain into purpose, and anger into action.
I congratulate all the great candidates who ran fantastic races and the thousands of volunteers who made calls, knocked on doors, and ensured Democrats won resoundingly.
Now, the work begins to actually deliver results. The American people have elected Democrats across the country in federal, state, and local races who must be ruthless in using every lever of power to deliver economic relief for working families and hold this administration accountable for their deep-seated corruption.
The people demand nothing less.

Jennifer Welch: “The New Dems are here. You’re right, lawyer up, read it again motherfuckers. There’s no secret meetings and playing pattycake with failson Jared fuckface Kushner. None of that shit. All gas on this thing until MAGA is crushed completely and thoroughly and a museum is erected with every single fascist’s name and every single person who gave money to these piece of shit bigots with their names chiseled in marble”

YES!!! Jack Smith could investigate Donald Trump again.
House Democrats could hire him as chief investigative counsel.
He could question witnesses under oath, and the committee could subpoena records.
