Update on Bosley: he got a CT scan at the animal hospital, and they believe he has pancreatitis. If you can pitch in to help with his hospital bill, it would mean so much. You can donate on our website or Venmo @ Woodstock-Sanctuary. We hope we can get him feeling better soon.

one thing i think is true is that republicans assumed that democrats would not respond in kind and that the forceful pushback spooked them (a lesson to learn here, perhaps)

The New York Times Argues “Moving to the Center Is the Way to Win.” But the Data Shows the Strategy Is Tapped Out.
Democrats already run moderates in nearly every swing district. It's not enough. A data-driven response to the case for centrism as a core electoral strategy.
My response to the NYT’s “moderate to win” argument: The data shows the strategy is tapped out. Being seen as moderate by voters doesn’t boost votes, replacing every progressive with moderates would net 0 seats, and the graveyard of defeated D incumbents if full of moderates, not progressives.

A revealingly creepy formulation by Speaker Johnson.
What does he mean by “they” are going to “descend” on “our” capital?
WE are going to assemble in OUR communities exercising OUR constitutional rights in defense of OUR nation.
