Today on "You First."
If Sargent didn't have talking points to regurgitate, he'd have nothing to say.
Greg Sargent demonstrating bad faith? Unpossible!
Expanding his bubble and making it as impermeable as possible is literally Greg Sargent's modus operandi.

Junior Joy Reid: "Why won't white women vote for the party filled with people like me who will accuse them of being racist and upholding white supremacy whenever they vote for Republicans?"
One of Joy Reid's understudy's guests was Susan Del Brain Damage, who said (paraphrasing), "I'm a Republican, which is why I only vote for Democrats now." Her nose grew song long when she said she was a Republican it nearly broke my TV.
Now Mad Scientist Fat Albert is having one of his trademark meltdowns. His hair has gone from a 5-kiloton mushroom cloud to 10 kilotons.

It's Election Day in Pennsylvania, too, and I have the text messages to prove it. ImageImage
It hasn’t been as prominent because there’s no statewide race to go with it, but my school district has also been roiled by the CRT wars. The incident referred to in the flier did get some national attention, but nowhere near what other places did. ImageImageImageImage
But as befits Republican candidates, they didn’t forget to include a more traditional GOP message. ImageImage

🚨🚨🚨 Manchin: Holding the infrastructure bill hostage will not work.
Manchin channeling his inner Popeye: “I’ve had all I can stand and I can’t stands no more.”
Manchin clear he won’t vote for any reconciliation bill that hasn’t been put through the wringer on its budgetary impact.

I surmised based on Quinnipiac's generic ballot numbers yesterday that Joe Biden's results would be "not good, I'd bet." And they aren't. Indeed, they're downright abysmal. This is easily the worst poll by any major pollster of his presidency. Downright awful across the board.
As I said.
Usual caveats re: Quinnipiac, which is a terrible pollster, apply. But you throw it all into the average. And the average is not looking too hot for one Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. at the moment.

Saw a clip on CNN a little while ago of Joe Manchin saying he’s “been very clear” about reconciliation. Didn’t sound like he’s ready to increase his offer. He was walking through a door marked no entry, though, so maybe he was just trying to escape the reporter.
“No entry” for unauthorized people. I’m pretty sure Manchin is authorized.
This is what I was referring to.

"Lisa Murkowski was in trouble well before Donald Trump descended the escalator. If she loses in 2022, the surprising thing won't be that she does, but that she managed to hold on for so long."

Me on #AKSen. This week's @dcexaminer magazine cover story. yahoo.com/now/murkowski-…
"Lisa Murkowski was a prime target for the Tea Party fervor that swept through the GOP in 2010. Yet her relationship with Alaska Republicans was already tenuous, largely because of how she got her seat in the first place." yahoo.com/now/murkowski-…
"Whether such was its intent, the notion that Alaska’s new voting procedures would rescue Murkowski from electoral oblivion hardened into conventional wisdom." yahoo.com/now/murkowski-…
