I asked activists and organizers all over the country how they were recharging after the midterm elections and getting ready for 2019. Here's what they said:

It's here! Political Charge's Year in Review -- a fun look back at the good things that happened in 2021. This has been one of the more popular features of my blog in the past -- I hope you enjoy this year's edition! #2021YearInReview politicalcharge.org/2021/12/29/202…
A few highlights:

JANUARY
The Inauguration, of course.
FEBRUARY
The House voted to strip Marjorie Taylor Greene from her committee assignments, following her use of social media to spread racism, conspiracy theories, and encouraging violence against Democrats.

So, a few months ago, I started making #goodnews TikToks on Fridays to celebrate our wins and counteract the media’s negative bias. Because I use music, I haven’t brought them here.

But I want my Twitter friends to celebrate, too, so let’s do it as a fun thread! 🧵
Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers (D) vetoed 5 bills from the GOP legislature that aimed to restrict abortion access.
Job creation under Biden is 60x the rate of the last 3 presidents! (Not a typo!)

I wanted to take a moment to thank Elizabeth B. Prelogar, only second Senate-confirmed woman to serve as solicitor general, for arguing about women's right to abortion in front of #SCOTUS today. She was amazing. #RoeVWade Image
Reminder that Prelogar was Biden's nominee. The only other female solicitor general was Elena Kagan, who was nominated by Obama.

Do you see your state on this list? Every state listed has elections happening on Tues. Nov. 2! It could be… //thread
It could be local races like for mayor or city council, you could have ballot measures, or it could be school board elections!!
So, please, if your state is listed and you’re not aware of any elections, double check by going to your state’s election website!

You guys. Biden's team is just knocking it out of the park again. They planted 200,000 flags -- from every state and territory -- to represent you and me on the Mall. People who'd want to be at the #Inauguration but can't due to COVID. (Click to see the magnificent picture.)
There are 56 lights shining upwards, to represent the 50 states and 6 territories.
Here's a detail of the state flags.

Ok, guys. Clearly we are in great need of a story. The story of what happened the last time the Senate had an equal 50-50 split.

Don't assume you know the end to this story by the way. Ok, here goes. // THREAD
(By the way, if anyone is wondering, yes, I'm responding with annoyance at everyone irritated that Chuck Schumer is "working with" Mitch McConnell on the rules that will govern the Senate.)
First of all, yes, Kamala Harris is the VP and is the tie breaking vote. When there is a vote. Have you seen any votes happening in this discussion between Schumer and McConnell. No. Because they get to decide. There is no tie breaking vote on rule making.
