Round of applause my lovelies

I was watching CNN earlier. Schumer and then Toady Ted - apart from Trump no-one deserves a hard slap more and I include McTurtle in that - on the Senate Floor. I have had Georgia results on in the background all day as I work, and I just wanted to say to my splendid DU family across the pond. Well done!!!!! Congratulations!!!!! Hurrah!!!! Huzzah and everything in between!!!!!

You have hung in there. You have fought the good fight. You have worn your very righteous indignation on your sleeve. Your mental well being has been battered. Your actual health and wealth has been severely damaged by the fascist in chief and his enablers and yet HERE YOU ARE! Maybe a bit bruised but fucking hell loves - you helped fight the good fight, you helped fight off a coup by the awfulness that has pervaded the republican version of public service for the last four years (stealing, thieving, grift and nasty). You never gave up, even when the odds seemed daunting.

The result - as you all know - BUT will always bear REPEATING ...

WH - Democratic Check
Senate - Democratic Check
Congress - Democratic Check

Take a bow you progressive monsters for actual equality, justice and freedom - rather than the bullshit the republicans claim as their own.

All of you own part of this and I could not be more proud to be part of this community.



Take a fucking bow my loves, you bloody well deserve it!

Democrats have only held the White House the House and the Senate 4 years out of the last 40, how much more progress could we have made? We must keep our fervor up for the midterms and any special elections because that's when the Republicans thrive. Republicans are trying to recall another California governor and set up a special election of which the last time gave us Schwarzenegger, we can't let this happen again
