Please stop asking me what happens if Mike Pence calls for a "ten day window" or whatever. NOTHING happens. Nothing a fucking thing. He doesn't have that ability. It would be like me calling for giraffes to grow wings. Please stop asking me about obviously imaginary things.

Those of you who insist on fretting and panicking over imaginary bullshit are becoming a real liability to our side. You're ensuring that those of us who want to fight and win important battles, are instead stuck babysitting your panicky asses. PLEASE STOP. You're hurting us.
Some of you panickers have become such a gullible and pathetic joke, even Ted Cruz is laughing at you now. He knows he can't magically overturn the election with imaginary procedures. He's laughing his ass off at you for being gullible enough to fall for it. You're the joke now.
You fucking panickers are doing REAL HARM to our side. You make us weak. You hand the republicans leverage over us that they don't have. You derail our agenda. You make sure we get nowhere. You're my enemy. You always have been. Please go away, panickers, I detest you.
I do not want people in my audience who go around searching for imaginary things to panic over. I just don't. I never have. I never will. Sorry. That kind of shit makes me want to vomit. I will never be a babysitter for people who think it's cute to panic. Makes me nauseated.
I'm here because I want to win. Fortunately, many of you are also here because you want to win. Some folks are only here because they want to panic, fret, hand wring, which means they want to lose. We need to drive these types out of the resistance. We'll win more without them.
I could write a book about the sheer number of elections and political battles we've lost in my lifetime, specifically because the panickers and fretters on our side spent the entire time obnoxiously insisting we were going to lose, which ultimately got in the way of winning.
After Biden takes office, the panickers on our side will still be loudly insisting that Trump is somehow magically going to take it away from Biden. Sounds clinically insane right now, but you'll this stuff from the panickers after January 20th. Guarantee it.
You know why the other side wins more elections and battles than they should? They don't have panickers, fretters, and "we're gonna lose" types on their side. They're not held back by any of that. They get to spend their time fighting and winning, instead of babysitting panickers

All the challenges to Leader Pelosi are coming from her right, in an apparent effort to make the party even more conservative and bent toward corporate interests.

Hard pass. So long as Leader Pelosi remains the most progressive candidate for Speaker, she can count on my support.


I agree that our party should, and must, evolve our leadership.

But changed leadership should reflect an actual, evolved mission; namely, an increased commitment to the middle + working class electorate that put us here.

Otherwise it’s a just new figure with the same problems.

I hope that we can move swiftly to conclude this discussion about party positions, so that we can spend more time discussing party priorities: voting rights, healthcare, wages, climate change, housing, cannabis legalization, good jobs, etc.
