I don’t think I misjudged her. I was, however, disappointed that so many people wanted Biden to drop out. But once he did, Harris seemed the logical choice to me.

You are so right. They carried the burden for all of us who want democracy to thrive.
I don't think we give enough import to the election officials in Michigan for protecting our entire democracy. They were the ones on the frontline of Trump/GOP attempts to subvert the will of the people. they were the "sword in the darkness", sisters of the nights watch.

Nor should he. Jordan and the others think they can pull all kinds of nonsense because they have the House. Jim, how’s that working for you so far? They’re playing with the pros when they face people like DA Bragg. I admit I am looking forward to them trying to take on J. Smith.
