‘We’re not some demonic cult’:
Democrats fume over faulty messaging
Posted By: NorthernDog, 11/12/2020 5:01:42 PM
House Democrats have the majority and are ripping each other to shreds. Senate Democrats fell short for the third cycle in a row, but are only grousing about getting out-messaged by Republicans. The two caucuses are going about their soul-searching a little differently. The fallout in the House has been swift. Though Nancy Pelosi’s speakership appears safe, the chair of House Democrats’ campaign arm, Cheri Bustos, announced Monday she wouldn’t run for another term after more than a half dozen Democratic incumbents lost their races. Meanwhile, on Tuesday, Senate Democrats are expected to easily reelect their leadership team headed by

Republican Senator David Perdue and Democratic rival Jon Ossoff are locked in a tight head-to-head race with less than two months until the Georgia runoff election, according to a new poll from a national Republican-leaning pollster. Remington Research Group's poll found incumbent Perdue at 50 percent among likely voters surveyed to Ossoff's 46 percent, with a 2.6-point margin of error and 3 percent still undecided—nearly matching the results in their tight race just last week. The survey of 1,450 likely voters from November 8-9 was first reported by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. It's the first major public poll since the

Public health experts are sounding the alarm about the trajectory of the pandemic in the United States as the coronavirus spreads through the country largely unabated and officials muse aloud about the possibility of fresh lockdowns. (Snip) Their warnings come amid widespread fatigue with restrictions, even as the virus is nowhere near finished rampaging across the country. Although several states implemented new mitigation measures this week, many people have been letting down their guards or, in some cases, vowing outright to ignore the rules. Fourteen states, mostly in the Midwest, had reported record numbers of hospitalizations by midday Thursday as

CHARITON, Ia. — Since Election Day, the results in the contest for Iowa’s 2nd Congressional District have only gotten tighter. On Monday night, nearly 300 previously unreported votes dropped into the totals of the country’s closest U.S. House race. The Secretary of State’s Office will not certify election results until the state canvass of votes Nov. 30. Although counties were required to certify their election results by the end of the day Tuesday, those county counts may change. As of noon Tuesday — the same day county boards were expected to certify their election results — Monday evening's correction and
Ohio Democratic Rep. Marcia Fudge is making her case for Agriculture secretary, arguing she’s best positioned to take on a cabinet post that has never gone to an African American woman. It's a move that sets up a battle with former North Dakota Sen. Heidi Heitkamp, long seen as the frontrunner for the post in the Biden administration. In her first public remarks about her interest, Fudge told POLITICO on Wednesday that as an African American woman, she represents a crucial segment of the electorate that helped fuel President-elect Joe Biden's victory over President Donald Trump. “When you look at
Rashida Tlaib isn’t apologizing for wanting to yank money away from bad police departments. She has no second thoughts about her embrace of the Black Lives Matter movement, or for wanting to aggressively fight climate change. House Democrats lost seats instead of expanding their majority, underperforming expectations across the board. And moderates have pounced on liberals like Tlaib, the Michigan congresswoman, accusing them of handing conservatives a set of slogans and policies to scare voters. But Tlaib and other House progressives don’t want to hear it. It all amounts to unfair blame-casting designed to shame them into staying quiet, they say
Cindy McCain, the wife of the late Arizona Sen. John McCain (R), said in a new interview that she believes that her husband would be “very pleased” that President-elect Joe Biden won the race for the White House against President Trump. "I think my husband would be very pleased," Cindy McCain, who endorsed Biden and is serving as part of his transition team, told CNN late Monday. "We were good friends with the Bidens," she added. "And I just know he is looking down and going, 'You did the right thing.' " (Tweet)The Associated Press last week called the McCains'
The Twin Falls City Council abruptly reversed course Monday, voting to indefinitely table a discussion on a face mask mandate after nearly four hours of heated testimony. (Snip) The ordinance would have required masks in indoor and outdoor public spaces for 60 days. It would have been punishable by a $50 fine -- an infraction. Twin Falls Chief of Police Craig Kingsbury said his officers would have leaned most heavily on education, but would have enforced the order. “As officers of the law, we are charged with enforcing those laws that are on the books to the best of our
Democratic Senator Joe Manchin drew the ire of progressives on Monday night after he pledged not to vote against his own party on Supreme Court packing or ending the filibuster, even if the Senate were to be split 50-50 in the wake of Georgia's runoff races. Appearing on Fox News, the U.S. senator from West Virginia said he would "not vote" with Democrats on those key issues if the Senate were split down the middle—effectively offsetting Kamala Harris' deciding vote as vice president. Speaking to Special Report with Bret Baier, Manchin said: "If both of the Georgia senators were
As Thanksgiving approaches, Americans are facing the decision of whether to gather with families and friends, and if so, how to do it safely. But aside from celebrating with only members of your household, it's very difficult to completely avoid any risk of Covid-19 exposure. One way to reduce risk, however, is for every single guest to quarantine for two weeks before the holiday, experts say. Thanksgiving this year falls on Thursday, Nov. 26, so public health experts advise that quarantine should begin this Thursday, Nov. 12. The two-week quarantine time frame is called for because that's the length of
Rep. Ben McAdams lost his tenuous lead over Republican contender Burgess Owens in the race for Utah’s 4th Congressional District on Saturday after nearly 15,000 ballots were added from Salt Lake County. Owens, a former NFL player and frequent Fox News commentator, now is up by 688 votes over McAdams, a first-term Democrat and the former mayor of Salt Lake County. It could be weeks before a clear winner emerges in the close contest. “We’re feeling pretty optimistic and excited to see the final tally,” said Jesse Ranney, Owens' campaign spokesman, in a statement Saturday. “We’re confident when all the

When Joe Biden was declared president-elect Saturday morning, Melissa Bland hustled to her computer to price airline tickets from Florida to Washington to attend his Jan. 20 inauguration. Bland found a few available seats but waited until Saturday afternoon to book her flight. By then, the fares had gone up $100. And the only hotel availability she could find in downtown Washington was at the Hilton Garden Inn in Georgetown for a nonrefundable $700 a night. “Shoot, it’s worth it,” said Bland, a 43-year-old high school teacher from Fort Walton Beach. “I’m only staying there one night.

Karl Rove, the past political guru to former President George W. Bush, said President Trump’s legal efforts in a handful of states aren’t going to be enough to change the ultimate outcome of the 2020 election. Mr. Rove said the president is well within his rights to go to court over concerns about fraud and transparency in his race against Democratic challenger Joseph R. Biden. “But the president’s efforts are unlikely to move a single state from Mr. Biden’s column, and certainly they’re not enough to change the final outcome,” Mr. Rove wrote in the Wall Street Journal in a piece published late Wednesday.

On Thursday, The Atlantic published an excerpt from former President Barack Obama’s forthcoming memoir, A Promised Land, set to be released next week. The excerpt echoes Obama’s classic style, praising America while furthering radical and subversive critiques. In one critical passage, Obama suggests he may have gone too easy on America’s faults during his eight years in office.
“I recognize that there are those who believe that it’s time to discard the myth—that an examination of America’s past and an even cursory glance at today’s headlines show that this nation’s ideals have always been secondary to conquest and subjugation, a racial caste system and rapacious capitalism,
On Thursday, President Donald Trump dropped a bombshell tweet where he claimed that 2.7 million of his votes were deleted and given to former Vice President Joe Biden.He quoted a report from OANN: "“REPORT: DOMINION DELETED 2.7 MILLION TRUMP VOTES NATIONWIDE. DATA ANALYSIS FINDS 221,000 PENNSYLVANIA VOTES SWITCHED FROM PRESIDENT TRUMP TO BIDEN. 941,000 TRUMP VOTES DELETED. STATES USING DOMINION VOTING SYSTEMS SWITCHED 435,000 VOTES FROM TRUMP TO BIDEN.” @ChanelRion @OANN"
Throughout the 2020 presidential election, Jill Biden was never far from the side of her 77-year-old husband, Joe Biden, and with the same corrupt media establishment that carried the former vice president across the finish line having rushed to call the race in his favor, they have shifted to a new strategy of moving on from an election that remains in flux.And part of that campaign centers on casting Mrs. Biden as the incoming first lady, but The Hill may have been a little too eager in that endeavor when they ran with the headline, “Jill Biden set to redefine role of first lady.”
A joint statement released by federal and state officials on Thursday described last week’s presidential election as the “most secure in American history” despite calls from President Donald Trump’s campaign that the election was “stolen.” The letter was signed by leaders of the Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, the U.S. Election Assistance Commission and the National Association of State Election Directors, among others. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency was established two years ago as a branch of Homeland Security during the Trump administration. In bold, the authors of the statement wrote, “There is no evidence that any voting system deleted

MSNBC host Mika Brzezinski voiced her concerns on Thursday about President Trump leaking government secrets once he is out of office and suggested for "certain sections of law enforcement" to go after him.
Brzezinski predicted Trump will use state secrets to enrich himself and his family when he goes back into business full-time.
Lawyers for President Donald Trump from the Porter Wright firm have withdrawn as of Friday from representing him in challenges to election results Pennsylvania.
Though the lawyers’ legal filing claims that the withdrawal is in the best interest of the plaintiffs, the New York Times reported Friday morning that the firm suffered “internal tensions” over its work for Trump — partly as a result of pressure from the Times‘ own coverage
I came to Minneapolis in 1972, lived in the western burbs until I married in 1991, and bought a house in a small but growing suburb northwest of town. We have been very happy here.
