Do Your Part to Help Save Democracy – Join your RD Committee

My Rep District reorganization meeting is tonight. I'm hearing that some districts have more than 30 new interested people signed up to attend. Your RD re-org meeting is coming up. Find out when and how to join it here->Delaware Democratic Party - Reorg Meetings
At this meeting, the 9th Rep. District will reorganize their Democratic Committees. All seats are vacated and members are elected/re-elected. New members encouraged to attend and join. Only registered Democrats who reside in the 9th Rep. District and have not been a member of another political party for at least one year are eligible to join.
There is no district in the state that couldn't be taken over by four dedicated liberals.

This is your post-Trump openly racist DEGOP

I guess in some ways this is a welcome change. She is only saying the racist shit in public that Lawson, Bonini, Wilson, Pettyjohn, Hocker, Richardson, Hensley, Spiegelman, Smyk, Ramone, Smith, Morris, Postles, Yearick, Vanderwende, Shupe, Briggs King, Gray, Short, Dukes, and Collins have been saying in private for years.

All the fucked up shit we know about the Trump administration is just the surface level fucked up shit. The real fucked up shit is going to be coming out for a long time.

Inside the craziest meeting of the Trump presidency

Flynn went berserk. The former three-star general, whom Trump had fired as his first national security adviser after he was caught lying to the FBI (and later pardoned), stood up and turned from the Resolute Desk to face Herschmann. "You're quitting! You're a quitter! You're not fighting!” he exploded at the senior adviser. Flynn then turned to the president, and implored: "Sir, we need fighters." https://www.axios.com/trump-oval-office-meeting-sidney-powell-a8e1e466-2e42-42d0-9cf1-26eb267f8723.html

What is Delaware’s Trumpiest District?

If you guessed that the trumpiest district in Delaware is the 40th, you are correct. The 40th, occupies the lowest/western most part of Suxco. In terms of what separates humanity from the beasts of the field, it is truly a blighted wasteland. When Australians call something "the dag end" they are taking a term from sheep farming that describes the area where shit collects around a sheep's ass making it a disgusting matted mess when it comes time to sheer the sheep. The 40th is the dag end of Delaware. 68% of voters in the 40th turned out for Trump this year.

First Delco replaced "Delaware County, PA".    It was cool.  It gave this quirky place its own branding.  Now we are seeing Montco in place of the tiresome writing out of  Montgomery County.  Like any copy...not as good as the original. Seeing the writing on the wall,  we are getting ahead of the trend and jumping directly to: Newcco, Kenco, and Suxco.     Sucks to be you, Suxco.

Today is the first day of Black History Month, and I have to admit that the amount of Black History & Civil Rights history I am familiar with is pitiful.   For instance, I just learned about the Dockum Drug Store sit in about an hour ago.

Dockum Drug Store Sit-In

When the Dockum Drug Store sit-in first happened in July 1958, few heard about it or recognized its importance. The sit-in was a student-led effort to end segregation. The two local daily newspapers published little about it, avoiding the negative association with the protest. The local chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People gave moral support, but did not participate in the student effort. Despite the silence surrounding the event, the students claimed their place in Kansas and national history.

GOP Doubling Down on Threats of Domestic Terrorism – Against Fellow Members of Congress

Boiled down to a sticky toxic goo, today's GOP is addicted to threatening violence.
Texas extremist Chip Roy calls for “alternative methods” to deal with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Warning in a letter to Speaker Pelosi that if she doesn't "apologize immediately, we will be forced to find alternative means to condemn this regrettable statement." Of course, Roy is not going to say exactly what that means, but I think we all know this is a physical threat against her. I am not sure at what point there is going to be an assassination attempt against AOC, but I’d say that I think it is more likely than not in the next two years. These are horrible times. And the Republican leadership is completely fine with all of it.

Biden White House will Not ‘elevate conspiracy theories’

I like this approach. Not talking about Trump these few weeks has been like a year in the country. https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/536473-psaki-wont-comment-on-taylor-greene-saying-it-would-elevate
White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Friday that she would not comment on Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) because she doesn’t want to “elevate conspiracy theories” in the White House briefing room. “We don’t want to elevate conspiracy theories further in the briefing room, so I’m going to leave it at that,” Psaki said. Psaki also told reporters that she would leave the decision to Congress as to whether to keep Greene on committees as she has come under fire for her promotion of unfounded conspiracy theories.
