Most of the focus is rightly on the WH and Senate, but this is EXACTLY why I’m also raising money to help Dems #ExpandTheHouse. Donate to the following races today... 1/
1. First, we have to make sure we KEEP the House blue. Donate to the 40 most vulnerable Dem incumbents: secure.actblue.com/donate/keepthe…
2. Then, donate to these Dems running in flippable GOP-held seats: secure.actblue.com/donate/expandt…
3. Next, these seats are long shots, but with good candidates, the right breaks and enough support, there could be a few surprises: secure.actblue.com/donate/compete…
4. Finally, these are the reddest of red districts, but we shouldn’t abandon Dems giving it a shot: secure.actblue.com/donate/compete…

For those wondering how the hell Gary Peters can be in such danger from John James, here’s my take as a native Michigander:

1. First, Gary is a great guy, a great Senator and a pretty good candidate. 1/
2. Having said that, he’s also very low-key and a behind-the-scenes work horse type; his name isn’t always in the news, meaning he’s still unknown to a lot of Michiganders despite being in the Senate for six years.
3. In the 2014 red wave, Peters was the only bright for Senate Dems. Again, he was a good candidate but he benefited greatly by his opponent being the worst Senate candidate in the history of ever, Terri Lynn Land.

FANTASTIC response. I'm stunned at how many people seem to be under the delusion that a woman will carry a pregnancy for 7 or 8 months and then suddenly, out of the blue, decide that they don't want to have a baby after all on a whim and undergo a medical procedure to stop it.
On top of everything else, how many people say to themselves, "you know what I feel like doing today? Undergoing a medical procedure which involves someone messing with my reproductive organs"?

I'm not a woman, but I'm guessing it isn't a particularly enjoyable experience.
Another way of underscoring Buttigieg's framing:

Imagine the "Married Life" sequence from "Up".

Now imagine that Ellie was *heavily pregnant* in the second shot. ImageImage

Here’s the thing: I’d be busting my ass for not just Biden but Dems up and down the ballot JUST AS HARD even if I was 100% certain that he was going to win both the popular AND Electoral College, for several reasons:
First, because we have to run up the score as much as possible to counter/minimise all of the GOP voter suppression/legal challenge bullshit.
Second, because the more we run up the score for Biden/Harris, the better chance we have of flipping the Senate, expanding the House and flipping state legislatures, which makes actually passing & implementing legislation easier (or even possible in the case of the Senate).
