I ❤️ my heart givers.

This is the first year I’ve really been able to experience the heart giving on DU, and it is pleasing to thank the voices I look to by showing them a little love. Am humbled that anyone on this site included me in such a gesture.

I’ve been sober for a little over four weeks, now, and is partly another way for to say thank you and love you to my favorite forum of all time.

Here's my anecdotal two cents:

My grandmother wants to vote for Warren in the primary. She’s well aware of what’s been going on, dislikes tRump as much as I do, watches local and national news some, reads the local paper, but isn’t terribly sophisticated in all the particulars that regulars on DU tend to be.

She’s remarked with some frequency that Warren makes good sense, and has the primary marked on her calendar.

Am journaling for when I need to read this again. Well done, to the two of you.

Watch Sherrod Brown breaking it all down in the Senate today

I wrote in the thread* for recording Senators opinions on the impeachment vote, that, if I could be anyone else today, I would like to be Sherrod Brown (D-OH). Was amazing and powerful.

Here’s his MUST WATCH speech:

To quote just a small part from his speech:

Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) - link to live coverage - IS A MUST WATCH

Lev Parnas and Bondy are on with Ari right now

Lev is giving tons of context. Rachel is out attending a funeral.

Is something to hear at the end of a day like this.

Schumer called this 'trial' without witnesses and documents a perfidy, and I completely agree.
