Hi Ravi,?
Good articles.? I'm glad someone is paying attention to the positive things accomplished!? I had no idea that the White House granted its first interview after Ketanji Brown Jackson was nominated to Heather Cox Richardson!? I love her - straight up facts with history thrown in.? Lovely.??
The second article makes a good point that Progressives maintain high expectations for their candidates as compared to....The field will be full for 2024, even though I find it interesting that Clinton and Warren have already professed support for a second term for Biden.? If his health holds, I'm guessing he'll run.? Honestly, I'm about who can win.? I'm a Progressive at heart, but have lost any idealism when it comes to the political stage.? Obama took that with him as he walked out the door, supporting the peaceful transition of power to a would-be authoritarian maniac.? At this point in our history and until the Republican Party rights itself or implodes and is replaced by rational actors, there's still too much at stake, i.e. the bottom line.? FWIW.
Good to hear from you.? I am finally feeling better and my brain appears to have recovered to the degree it will.? Work is hard, but I'm grateful to have a good job and my colleagues and supervisor are great, which is a real gift.? Wish it wasn't full-time and that I had more flexibility in my schedule. Four days a week would be perfect!? And, I'm positive I could get done as much in 4, as 5 days..in fact, almost surely more.??
It's hot here this week...two words on the lips of many..."heat pump."? Looks like a climate bill, a start, has a whisper of a hope of passing in the Senate.? I expect McConnell will continue to vote against his people, who are hopefully waking up, given the massive flooding and tragedy of lost lives going on in Kentucky.? Blame Andy Beshear--the guy that advocated for the state to accept Medicaid expansion!
DeTrumpist!? That's good.??
