Raphael Warnock winning: What a relief.
Herschel Walker getting that many votes: What a sad commentary.

Congratulations to Senator Warnock on running a stellar campaign and thank you to all the activists and voters who made this victory possible.

Pippa update: Pippa is now receiving oral chemo. There is no chance of curing the cancer, just slowing the spread. She‘ll get this until she suffers substantial quality of life degradation: breathing issues. Hopefully there will be minimal side effects. This is much stronger that what she had before. If the meds themselves are too nasty, we‘ll have to stop them. Brave Pippa. She did her usual walk around the block early this morning.

I am surprised that the article focused on the EU comission and not the EASA as the regulatory body. Wonder if they have to certify G5 antennas on planes respectively allow the use of phones on planes.

HOLY HELL! Donald Trump failed to disclose a $19.8 million loan to a foreign creditor while running for president in 2016 and after assuming office in 2017. The company has ties to North Korea!! LOCK HIM UP! @joncoopertweets

@steve It’s GOP voter suppression in plain view.

When you see long lines at a polling place, remember that it is a policy choice, not an inherent condition.
