Yeah. If you didn't have mad respect for Pelosi after all the other badass things she did,

You sure has hell should now. Mad respect for Nancy Pelosi, who continues to stand up for human rights and justice -and a better future for all. Not even Republicans can deny the badassery of this visit.





(Yeah it's sappy and sentimental. Sue me)

Tom Nelson drops out of WI Senate Race -endorses Barnes

https://www.politico.com/news/2022/07/25/tom-nelson-drops-out-of-wisconsin-senate-primary-00047683


Democrat Tom Nelson dropped out of the Wisconsin Senate primary on Monday and threw his weight behind Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes, a move that aims to consolidate progressive Democratic support in one of the party’s tightest primary battles.

Nelson, who served as the Outagamie County executive since 2011, delivered the announcement on Twitter and said “We ran out of money. So I am suspending our campaign and endorsing the one candidate not trying to buy this election: #TeamMandela.”


I totally missed this from yesterday. Does this make Barnes the defacto nominee, at this point?

With the supreme court taking the new case on state legislature power over

Elections, Democrats have an even higher moral obligation to pass a law to add seats to the supreme court for the sake of our democracy. It will be up to Biden whether he wants to sign it were it to make it to his desk.

If you knew Roe was likely going to be overturned and your plan was to just sing god bless America, say some vague bs about voting and ask for $15 you need to resign. Now.
