I believe that some real damage was done by the GOP Senate under McConnell for the past six years. Merick Garrland, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Barret are the names that come to mind.

Now is the time for the Democratic Party to target more senate seats. Winning the two senate seats in GA was sheer luck and a gift from the ex WH moron. Both Graham and Collins winning re-election hurt us a lot and this trend needs to be reversed. Perhaps instead of targeting the more 'undesirable' senators, we should be targeting those in states where the Republicans have a weaker hold like our success in Colorado.

While watching the news conference today.

Realized is was satisfying and calming to have adults back in control.

Feeling relieved? Sleep better? Experts explain impact of Biden's inauguration

https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/bett...021925449.html

Yep. Slept almost 9 hrs last night. I'll bet the Insane clown and his nazi pals who posted threats all over social media aren't sleeping well now.

Biden offering sharp rebuke to Putin, 180-degree shift from Trump's message. He rails on "Russian recklessness" and says curtailing Russia "has become critical to protecting our national security."

Says Kremlin "weaponized corruption to try to undermine our system of governance"

Finally, a president who isn't a Pootin stooge.

Biden and his Covid-relief bill prove popular in new CNN poll

https://www.cnn.com/2021/03/10/polit...ill/index.html

Quote:
A broad majority of Americans (85%) say they support policies in the bill that would provide larger tax credits for families and make them easier for low-income households to claim, including majorities across party lines (95% of Democrats and 73% of Republicans support it). Around three-quarters favor provisions to provide funding to facilitate a return to the classroom for K-12 students (77%), and sending stimulus checks worth up to $1,400 per person to most families and individuals (76%). Both of those policies also have majority support across party lines (55% of Republicans support each, among Democrats, support tops 90% for each one).
After four LONG years of hell, Joe is truly making America great again.

It's telling that the Repubs in Congress are opposing the Covid-relief bill. With the majority of Americans, even Republicans, in favor of it they still oppose it. They simply want to prevent Joe Biden and the Democrats from achieving anything during Biden's term. Their eyes are fixed on regaining power in Congress in 2022. If Biden successfully leads the country and the American people are doing well the Repukes have nothing to run on. What's worse, the GQP lies about the evil Dems driving the country to ruin will be laid bare for all to see.

They'll still have Faux "News" and the others lying to them 24/7. Sadly, I can't imagine someone as far into the lies as the Insane clown will ever examine the facts, even if the country is MUCH better off, as it soon will be.
