Tell me if I’m wrong, but I haven’t seen reporting re: journalists Mary Bruce and Catherine Lucey and Trump in any of the legacy media newspapers. I’m looking at you, NYT, WaPo, WSJ. But, they're falling all over themselves re: Trump and MbS.

Happy birthday Kurt Vonnegut Jr. During WWII, he was imprisoned in a slaughterhouse in Dresden. Vonnegut & his fellow prisoners only survived the bombing because they slept in a meat locker three stories below the ground. He published Slaughterhouse-Five (1969).

The GOP/MAGA folks seem deaf to what happened last night, but so is the DNC. The Party is not back, as Hakeem said. The voters are done with "business as usual". We're done with party politics and identity wars and 'nice'. We want results. Tell us what we're voting FOR. Not what we're voting AGAINST
