2020 dark thoughts: If this were a non-misogynistic, non-racist country, I'd give almost all the Ds a good shot at winning. But that's not reality. Misogyny was a factor in Hillary's loss.
All of the women will lose the "a woman shouldn't be Pres" vote & Warren's the most vulnerable because she's an intellectual giant, a Hillary-V2.

In case you missed it, or need another reminder, on @DeadlineWH today, @steveschmidtSES, as he rolled out the same shibboleths Conservatives have been using for 60 years against Liberals, revealed what we should never forget about never-Trumpers like him or
@charliesykes or @radiofreeTom or @TheRickWilson, or @MaxBoot . They blame Hillary (not Russia, or voter suppression, or misogny) for tRUmp's winning, not the GOP, not "Conservative Values".

Refugees from violence around the world (Latin America, Africa, the Middle East) number an estimated 60 million. The problem is real; worldwide response is weak, often cruel. I understand. They move toward countries with different customs, languages.
Trumpies & their counterparts say the country can't absorb them. They take resources. Yes, language, culture, skills are issues. But consider. These families make dangerous journeys of hundreds or thousands of miles. They face assault, rape, murder, etc.

The #IGReport has already faded from the news & it shouldn't. I'm working my way through & here are some key takeaways re Comey's July announcement (all the clips are from Pages 240 - 250 of the IG Report).
1. He planned for months to make a solo announcement, contrary to established procedures, hid his plans from his DOJ superiors, advised those he consulted with to stay silent, told Lynch just before press briefing to make it impossible for her to cancel the briefing.

Key takeaways re Comey's July announcement (all the clips are from Pages 240 - 250 of the IG Report). To say that Comey was arrogantly irresponsible would be an understatement.
1. He planned for mos to make a solo announcement, contrary to established procedures, hid his plans from his superiors, informed Lynch shortly before his press conference specifically to make it impossible for her to cancel the announcement.
