Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi just lost my vote for the Illinois Democratic US Senate primary

[Sympthsical]

34. Mostly younger Democrats

Who do not share the same . . . deferential posturing towards the Old Guard and its past scandals.

And that's putting it as diplomatically as possible. If DU thinks Gen Z lawmakers are going to crouch into a 90s position on this stuff, well, they're misreading the room (just as younger voters were misread in 2024). They don't care who it is. You're associated with Epstein in any way, they'll be happy to watch it burn.

Pelosi trying to dress down someone like Maxwell Frost is not going to hit the way people think, and the fact people aren't recognizing this generational change is to our electoral detriment.

I do not think giving Comer what he wants is generally a good idea. Comer is not interested in being agreeable or simply finding truth. There is ever his agenda. But, I can't say I don't get the younger Democrats' mindset here. It's not the 1990s anymore. It's not even the 2010's anymore.

Younger Democrats aren't going to defer. Best wrap heads around that one now and save some pain later.
