Can you imagine if we hadn't taken back the House this year?

I shudder to think of what that totally unaccountable unfit conman would be getting away with right now.

I'm so thankful for the big blue wave last Nov., and our Democrats who are the chairpersons of every House committee.

So glad that so many people across the country woke up and voted blue. I'm in a blue district and we jus had a primary challenge as the only thing to worry about. No way Repubs were taking our seat, but for all those young Dems, especially the women, congrats on winning your seats and thank you for taking our country back!

Because, as we're seeing with the Russian Asset in our White House, we're in perilous times. Our lives and our children's lives are on the line until the republicans are gone.

And I am committed to volunteering more hours than ever over the next year to ensure another big blue wave in 2020.

For just making me crap my pants.

Very good point. If the GOP had the House, we would not have seen the transcript or the whistleblower statement, and the whole Ukraine matter would be Page 2 speculation.
