Strokes do end up heightening the worst of a person’s personality

This is absolutely not true. Like any brain injury, strokes can damage different parts of someone’s brain and it can be impossible to predict how they may change. It could affect memory, personality, mobility, speech, you name it. Regarding personality, it could change in almost infinite ways, or not at all.

Also unless a state outlines a mechanism for the government to pay for a recount, recounts are typically paid for by the challenger’s campaign. That would have cost her millions

The House, Senate, and Democratic Party are all different things. You seem to think they’re all controlled by the same people, but they’re not. In the Senate, Chris Van Hollen is stepping up to challenge Schumer for Majority Leader. No one has stepped up in the House to challenge Jeffries. That Jeffries and/or his allies in the House threatened the representative who is the subject of that article has nothing to do with the Senate

I don’t understand how you gleaned that from anything I said above

Oh my god, you think Politico and The Hill represent the Democratic Party?! Politico is owned by Axel Springer, which is German, and whose CEO imposes editorial decisions from the top, such as strict support for Israel. The Hill is owned by Nexstar Media, which universally publishes straight-up conservative propaganda.

Van Hollen isn’t new, he’s been in the Senate for 10 years and has served as chair of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. He knows what’s up

That article is about this House. We’re talking about the Senate. Electing a House Speaker required a simple majority of all members. Given Democrats’ sizeable majority, this means probably 50 Representatives would have to withhold support from Jeffries. This may happen or may not. Fortunately, in the House there are mechanisms for membership to bring bills to the floor regardless of the Speaker’s wishes.

In the Senate, I think enough Democratic Senators are on board for a change from Schumer, which will force a competitive election for Majority Leader. This position has more control of the legislative agenda than the House Speaker does

Can you point to where a majority of Democrats said this

What I’m pointing out is that Millennials are taking over the Senate now

Can you point to where all the Democrats said this

Bernie Sanders is not running to be majority leader, but also Bernie Sanders clearly still has the fight in him, and there’s no reason for him to stop right now. If you watch the press conference this article is about, not only is he completely right, but he also presented this with Senator Elissa Slotkin, who is 50. Senator Jon Ossoff is 39. New Senators include Abdul El-Sayed, 42, Annie Andrews, 46, James Talarico, 37, and probably Scott Colom, 43.

Republicans win with the oldest senator, Chuck Grassley, 93, and the most vegetative senator, Mitch McConnell, 84.

At least 10 Republican Senators would have to vote to impeach for it to stick

I don’t know what I expected, but I guess I thought Republicans would be at least a little conciliatory. I was a fool. I think the strategy of total obstruction they’re setting themselves up for is going to continue to fail with the American public, just like it failed in this election, especially because they keep putting pedophiles and those who are documented to be protecting them in charge

I think we should tax all billionaires until they’re no longer billionaires. Let’s use that money for social programs

Stop trying to laws apply to the rich happen.

Stop laws to apply to happen trying the rich.

Stop to apply trying to happen the rich laws.

How about taking over the Democratic Party? That process is already underway, let’s keep it going

There are plenty candidates who could jump in and do a great job. The campaign hasn’t even started yet. I genuinely don’t think jumping from the House to President is a good move, someone needs to hold a higher office first to demonstrate their ability to manage a much larger organization than a House office.

The only person ever elected directly from the House was James Garfield in 1880. Most presidents were previously senators or governors. The only person ever elected without holding any prior office was Donald Trump in 2016.

She may run against Schumer, but in the next Democratic primary election for Senator

Trump endorsed Boebert days before the election, praising her in a Truth Social post as a “MAGA Warrior, who has been with us from the very beginning.”

She drew the president’s ire earlier this year when she campaigned with one of his most vocal Republican critics…prompt(ing) Trump to call her “dumb” and “weak-minded” and he threatened to withdraw his endorsement.
