Wait - I thought he ran to take money OUT of politics - now he has a leadership PAC and he hasn’t even been sworn in
Watch what people do not what they say

But I was reliably told we were getting money OUT of politics. Can someone please clarify this for me?
You can't even make this stuff up.
My former Boss - one of a kind - an excerpt from his last senate floor speech, and the last time we had a Dem senator address colleagues in the Capitol. Cannot wait for @AnnieAndrewsMD to have her first speech next year.

You look at this blue landslide in America based on races that got zero attention on this website and it really does make clear twitter is not real life. The more reporters who get that, the healthier American politics will be.

White liberal celebrity calling on Democrats to reject the first Black Speaker of the House … this guy really has his finger on the pulse
Sign this petition if you want a new speaker of the house.

We should really be talking more about what Josh Shapiro did on Tuesday.
In a state that Trump won 2 years ago, he won reelection by 22 points, which is not only 9 points more than the closest swing-state Democratic senator; it's a bigger margin of victory than Hochul in NY and Lamont in CT.
Actually hope we don’t do this - reduces influence of moderates and impotence of swing states and gives too much power to coastal voters and elites who don’t care about people they see as nothing more than residents of “flyover country”
That is what I said - moderates make majorities @FaulknerFocus
@Amottur - “AOC HAS HER WORK CUT OUT FOR HER”

💯- Abdul will wear thin
Abdul El-Sayed’s prospects for becoming a dominant figure in Congress are clouded by how “he doesn’t play nicely,” says @MarkHalperin. “A freshman senator who comes in and acts the way he does? I don’t think that’s going to go over particularly well with his older peers. Last night he insulted the vice president. He was extremely rude and crude to Mike Rogers.” El-Sayed, Mark says, must also compete with an “all star team” of incoming freshmen Democratic Senators — “a paraplegic gold medalist, a female pediatrician, two pastors, a logger” — who lack his sharp elbows. @LarryOConnor @KevinPWalling
Less talked about referendum on the election results — the markets like a check on Donald Trump
Fascinating to see how the stock market is reacting to the election. You'd think it would hate to see the GOP's losses. And yet, maybe it prefers rational government. The Dow is up 1300 points. Stocks are higher across the board, except Elon Musk's Tesla is down 4%, wiping out more than $63 BILLION in market cap.
Big winners include Moderna, the mRNA vaccine maker targeted by the antivaxxers in the administration.

If the remaining results go as expected, Democrats will hold governorships in states totaling 392 electoral votes.

The New Dem and Blue Dog coalitions currently have a combined 124 members—and added roughly 50 or more last night.
Of the 45 races CPR rated Toss-Up, Lean Republican, or Lean Democratic during the final three weeks, 43 featured Democrats endorsed by New Dems or Blue Dogs.
Last night wasn’t just a repudiation of Trump. It was a repudiation of socialism and the DSA — and a victory for mainstream, pro-growth, and CAPITALIST Democrats!!!
Bark, Bark, Bark. The @BlueDogBark caucus will far outnumber the @DemSocialists caucus in the House.
Loving @ReverendWarnock line - “Mississippi is a southern blue state that just needed organizing”

These facts undermine narrative pushed by GOP talking heads that we are dominated by wacko DSA members
Moderates are how you win across America and compete in every state
Bark, Bark, Bark. The @BlueDogBark caucus will far outnumber the @DemSocialists caucus in the House.
The DSA is not the story - it’s the Moderate Democrats who are winning North South East and West across our country. This is how we win
