Sample: Everyone needs to be surveilled by the government whenever they're driving, the purpose of which is to prevent terrorism, including potentially by members of El-Sayed's family. Or by El-Sayed himself. He probably already had all the Flock camera supporters already, so no gain there.

Read these 3 excerpts from this piece. Just READ them, y'all. These takes ALL are from VERY ESTABLISHMENT Dems, all of them Black, who claim that what Dems REALLY care about is giving @kamalaharris.com a chance to show her TRUE self. Pro tip: Actually she's had that chance. And has shown it. Nuts.

If memory serves, this article has been almost entirely rewritten, probably because of reactions to it like mine. But it still contains a full-paragraph quote by a Dem consultant/@kamalaharris.com '22 staffer saying she's "extraordinary popular in the party". Well, the GOP party. wapo.st/4hT7eTE

I've been in a melancholy mood all day, so stepped outside to look at the orange flowers and green leaves on this drizzly evening and took a few pics to look at during the winter when they're gone. Stepped back inside, and saw Frankie on the green and orange flower rug. Feeling a little better now.

This take is ... bizarre. These reporters BADLY need to break away from Establishment Washington and speak with some of the Dems who voted in the primaries for structural-economic progressives AGAINST establishment candidates. Pro tip: @kamalaharris.com is *loathed* by progressive and younger Dems.

Yep.

I agree with him.
