so much more fuckery has yet to happen. In a fair election, with no gerrymandering, we'd kick their collective asses easily and probably have super majority for the next 20 years.

but that reality doesn't exist.

just gotta vote.

item and giving the criminals more reason to try and cheat to steal the electons.

The day after election day, yes. But not today.

otherwise we end up being caught in the vicious cycle of self-blame, demanding to know "What are Democrats doing?"

something like this that is essentially pointless until we get a majority, as well as strategically unwise. If it is the case they are saying it for that reason, we have a problem.

after what was a contentious battle for the position last year.

A year ago after the 2024 election, Gerry Connolly won the position against younger challenger AOC. However Connolly fell ill and passed away, was briefly replaced by Stephen Lynch, and was finally replaced by García.

It was literally a generational change from Boomers to the younger end of GenX in an attempt to get someone younger and more fiery into that Oversight position, and García has been stepping up to the challenge to be seen and heard.

But it doesn't change my point.

and report them when I can. People will characterize these however they want but I think it's still useful to report.

Now that we are back at the actual subject at hand, it IS very useful to know Garcia said it, and I'm glad you posted it. And my opinion is that it might create more incentive for them to cheat and Garcia would do better to hold his fire on this particular subject till after the election, but then to go after them mercilessly.

so what he is announcing is nothing new because the GOP strategists are hand-wringing about it. Jamie Raskin has announced similar the past year.

Although obviously not a 100% slam dunk, the party in power usually loses seats, and even with all the gerrymandering, there are a pile of swing districts that we barely lost in 2024 in swing states, and those give us a good chance for some pickups.

an excellent chance to win seats.

I'll leave with just a reiteration that I know you do a lot to bring stories to DU and that effort and its results are much appreciated.

Otherwise Congress will be unable to fix this mess they have caused.

As well as the criminals themselves.

The law doesn't apply to the fucking repukes.
And,of course, the Democrats will release a strongly worded statement.

The headline at the link is "...Democratic...". Maybe The Hill fixed it after you copied it.

Either way, bring on the subpoenas.
