246 years ago today, 2,400 Americans crossed an icy Delaware River during a Nor’easter, then marched…many of the shoeless…10 miles in the middle of the night to hand the largest Army in the world their first loss on colonial soil. (1/4) The Battle of Trenton, which was George Washington’s 1st win after months of retreats and losses, served as the turning point of the Revolutionary War where foreign powers thought the colonials might have a chance to win.

It appears the GOP may have 350,000 more voters turnout than projected while the DEMS may fall 200,000+ voters short of projections. That’s a net-shift of 550,000 voters in favor of Republicans. Let me explain… (1/29) Let’s start with the GOP. Experts projected about 1,000,000 republicans would vote in the ’22 Primary. They reached that number by presuming any republican who voted in 2 of the last 4 primaries would vote in the 2022 Primary. (2/29)

Mark Zuckerberg revealed in his @joerogan interview that extreme polarization is unique to the United States. I know what caused polarization and how to end it. With @JoeBiden and @GOPLeader coming to PA to give speeches about it, let’s talk about it…🧵 In countries with equal or more social media usage, Zuckerberg explains polarization is nowhere near the level we see in America.

As I staggered down the hall to our bed. She helped steady me and said:
How can you think like you think and

How can you tell our children to be strong
And fight temptation in world gone wrong?

Where did all of the workers go? A PA state agency released a provocative & underreported theory last week. Homeschooling is taking a parent out of the workforce, while Boomers are paying their kids to care for them outside of a nursing home...🧵 The PA IFO found that both nursing homes/residential care & public schools have seen a dramatic drop in employment.

When people ask me “What’s happening with the PA US Senate race?” what they really mean is “Why does voting suck so bad in Pennsylvania?” Let me explain because it didn’t always suck… 🧵 PA used to have an ‘Election Day,’ meaning with some exceptions most of the voting occurred on a single day…in-person…from 7AM-8PM. That changed in late 2019 with the passage of Act 77. Litigating those changes will determine the PAGOP US Senate nominee.
