This is too damned important to post what you "heard"... You need to wait until there is a link of some kind to a valid source, lest you suffer the slings and arrows that are flying right now--rightfully skeptical and angry at the posts intended to mislead the past several days.

5. It was four members of the CBC and the CHC, not the entire caucuses.

"A group of four prominent members from the Congressional Black Caucus, Congressional Hispanic Caucus and the progressive caucus called on Biden to stop running. "We must face the reality that widespread public concerns about your age and fitness are jeopardizing what should be a winning campaign," said Reps. Jared Huffman, D-Calif., Marc Veasey, D-Texas, Chuy Garcia, D-Ill., and Mark Pocan, D-Wis."

It was reported yesterday.

Please update your post so that it doesn't cause undue consternation.

14. Well screw the billionaires
Sat Jul 20, 2024, 08:58 PM

and the 66% of Democrats that want Biden to leave the race, and screw Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Schumer, and George Clooney, and Nate Silver, and Senators Sherrod Brown, and Martin Heidrich, and the several dozen congressmen who want Biden to leave. Biden should just ignore all of them. Who needs donors and the support of Democratic leadership?
