  • Interesting timing, with 75 Democrats bowing to the GOP and voting against the party to “[express] gratitude to law enforcement officers, including U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement personnel, for protecting the homeland.”

    One could argue, those 75 Democrats are the epitome of the old, feckless, Republican-light lawmakers that should be facing primary opposition (which is why Hogg has been kicked out).

    If one of your congressmen is on that list, give them a call and voice your displeasure.






  • So many folks have in Rockland, NY have signed affidavits saying they voted for an independent candidate for the US Senate, but the final tally from the county’s Board of Elections doesn’t mesh with what voters say they did.

    While investigating, they uncovered hundreds of folks who voted for a Democrat for US Senate, but who didn’t vote for Harris (which is generally rare).

    We’ll see where this shakes out, but there have been a few stories over the past several months that show some weird things like this with the election (Nevada election results statistically looking like foreign elections we know Russia meddled in, the recent questions about a software patch being rolled out at the last minute on voting machines).






  • Many Democrats said party officers shouldn’t take sides in primaries, and Martin proposed requiring party leaders to remain neutral in them. Hogg had pitched a compromise, suggesting an internal “firewall” that would bar him from access to sensitive information in primaries his group, Leaders We Deserve, were involved with. But Martin rejected that deal.

    “Party officers have one job: to be fair stewards of a process that invites every Democrat to the table — regardless of personal views or allegiances,” Martin said, urging Hogg to stay neutral.

    IMO this is what it’s all about. They can talk about ‘procedure’ and ‘distractions,’ but at the end of the day Hogg has committed to running primary challengers against dead weight Democrats.
