I love Biden's potty mouth!

He is so graceful when he does it

It was on so early here on the west coast, before 6:30. I always have C-SPAN on (because my dog wakes me up at around 3 am to go pee... he is elderly so I must comply or end up having an accident on the bed....) Anyway, I think I had fallen back to sleep and missed entirely Kamala's speech, and the beginning of Biden's. Until I heard his forceful voice say "dagger at the throat of America and its democracy..." I woke right up and was like, "What? Did I actually hear Biden say that?" and fortunately was able to rewind it and hear it again.

That just jolted me awake. I was so glad to finally hear this kind of sentiment from him.

And that certainly has been the messaging in the last few days. Merrick Garland mentioned it. So did Kamala Harris and Biden today, as well as Schumer.

I want to see advertisements against all of the GQP running for Secretary of State to help get the Democratic Vote out in the mid terms. This is crucial! This is where we need the millionaire Democrats to pony up. A full frontal attack on those that would subvert our Democratic Republic.

Every Vote Counts!
Truth Matters!

Lets Go!!!

I'm really glad that he won the election and earned the opportunity to lead our nation. The presidency is the capstone on his remarkable 50-year-long career in public service. You can tell that Joe is a genuinely good person every time he talks.
