Strong statements from @ewarren when asked by @NBC about the prospect of an all-white December debate. Warren said, "I'm very concerned that there may be a Democratic debate and there may not be a single person of color on that stage."
Warren also said misogyny was a concern.
1/
@ewarren @nbc Referencing @KamalaHarris's video stating that money had driven her out and that she was "not a billionaire," @ewarren said, "I'm also deeply concerned that two women [Harris and @SenGillibrand] have been forced out of the race--two women who together won 11.5 million votes."

@ewarren @nbc @KamalaHarris @SenGillibrand Here is @KamalaHarris--who had qualified for the December debate:
"I am not a billionaire."

@ewarren @nbc @KamalaHarris @SenGillibrand And @ewarren thinks "billionaires buying their way in" while "two women are forced out" is a statement about white privilege: Harris had made the debate requirements, but "Bloomberg spent $37M on an ad buy in one week" and Harris could not compete with that $.

Sad #Caturday for me & The Wife. We lost our cat Baby the day before Thanksgiving after a brief illness. Then Thursday our cat Bean died suddenly at home. It's a lot. Here is the handsome Baby in hospital the week before his death.He was a gigantic cat. Beloved by his wife Pilar.
We ran a cat rescue for over a decade until my paralysis. I rescued Baby from a tree in the snow as a six-month old kitten. He loved other cats, The Wife and me. He remained pretty feral with people. But he was a big beautiful guy, here with Pilar.
#Caturday
Bean was a big red and white tabby I rescued with his litter mate Zorina as 7 week old kittens.They were deeply bonded. We are hoping we can get Zorina and Pilar to bond and help ease their loss. I've never seen a cat more devoted to another as Pilar was to Baby.

Not in the US, no. There is no "taking over" by a VP unless the president is incapacitated. Every 4yrs there's a presidential election. The 2020 Democratic nominee must be able to be the 2024 incumbent. The history of one-term presidencies is not good.
The last one-term presidency was Carter. The only Democrat between 1968 and 1992. One-term presidencies are damaging to that party. If Biden were to be the nominee, the opposition will just wait out his 4yrs. He is frail now. In 2024 he will be 83. These are real concerns.
The last one-term presidency in an open election was Carter--the last one-term presidency with a VP was Bush 1: Reagan's 3rd term, as VPs are called. So in a one-term presidency the VP would be carrying the weight of that failure. AND would have Dem challengers like Gore did.

Misleading headline in large comprehensive English & Spanish poll. Warren in a statistical tie with Sanders for 1st. Warren also has the highest favorables: 67%

Warren & Biden lose ground, Sanders moves ahead in California's shifting 2020 Democratic race latimes.com/politics/story…
Biden is in a statistical tie with Buttigieg--he lost 7pts, Buttigieg gained 7pts. The poll was taken a week before Harris withdrew. She was ranked in 5th place at 7%, down 7pts. No traction for Steyer or Bloomberg despite $$$.

Sanders 24%
Warren 22%
Biden 17%
Buttigieg 16%
Sanders has the most under 49 voters and Latinx voters, Warren is 2nd in both, and is highest among women voters. Buttigieg surged ahead of Biden with 65+ voters. Warren was the 2nd choice for the most voters at 58% and she and Biden benefit most from Harris leaving.

#democratic primary: It's 12/1 and just over 2 months to the IA caucuses. So what the heck is going on in this primary that's being conducted in the middle of a constitutional crisis? Well, the bottom line is that young voters are steadier in their preferences than older voters.
Taking @surveyusa polling from Aug-Nov, we see that the 18-34 vote has barely moved for Warren (-1), Pete (+1), Biden (+2) and Harris (-1). For Bernie, there was a big drop of -10 from Aug to Sept, but has since stabilized at 35, highest of any candidate in that demo.
Among 35-49 voters, since Aug, Liz is +2, Pete (0), Bernie (-1), Joe (-5) and Harris (-4). Among 50-64 voters: Warren (+2), Pete (0), Bernie (-1), Biden (-4), Harris (-5). Among 65+: Warren (-13), Pete (+7), Bernie (+2), Joe (-4), Harris (-5).

Here's a write up of the remaining testimony from May 13. Vicente still under direct examination. This picks up after the lunch break. Lots of talk between attorneys after the lunch break about instructions to jury about how to move forward.
Talk about statements made to Vicente by co conspirators and non-co-conspirators. Agnifilo presents the judge with his version of instructions. Prosecution says it doesn’t make sense because the statements will come in interspersed with co-conspirator statements.
Judge asks how the jury will know the difference. Agnifilo objects says he doesn’t know who is who. Agnifilo says they shouldn’t treat anyone as a co-conspirator and the prosecution says that would be misleading.

#warren/#buttigieg 2020. Tell me why I'm wrong.
I was really hoping to elect a person of color, and I still have some interest in Harris. But she's getting too much heat for her prosecutor background. Besides Warren has the most policies that align with my view of America, AND she knows how to make those goals achievable!
And Buttigieg... I'm still learning about his ability to govern, but I'm continually impressed by how worldly and hella SMART he is. and he's obviously had some inside experience of oppression as a gay man from middle America.

GOP Ron Desantis running for Gov of Florida has connections to racists, made appearances at far-right conferences hosted by extremist David Horowitz and moderated for a Facebook group full of racist vitriol.

1-It’s very obvious that issue is not the disappearance of #JamalKhasoggi while Saudi is very concerned about the whereabouts and safety of Jamal. The story is much bigger than that The media hysteria and coordinated efforts by the leftist mainstream media, #Qatar and the leaks.
2- the mainstream Stream media is publishing stories based on Unverified leaks. I wonder why no one in the media contact Mr. #JamalKhoshoggi family or his ex wife or current wife. Why the Focus is only to the so called fiancé.
3- the amount of mess information coming out of #Turkey is very suspicious. 4 groups are working hard to destroy Saudi reputation, social and economic reforms. #qatar #MuslimBrotherhood #Turkey finally the international left.
