1. Thanks for that.

Rerun of Rachel is on here at 4 AM.
Not 5!
A very early bird, that is what I watch.

Now I can watch Biden news on CNN!

2. She's repeated here (New York) at 4am, so I'm watching again now.

3. Same here, but I am watching Biden

Jayapal said yesterday she had talked to Sinema, talking with Joe all along. They both will vote yes.

Is it raining there? I missed the pool this morning. Raining and they are redoing the parking lot. Every place you try to go in or out has red cones. You can’t see anything in the dark.

Jim Clyburn just said,” Democratic infighting will cost us the election.” Jayapal said her 40 members would vote yes.

4. Clyburn Is Right

I keep hearing yes so where is the vote? So far nowhere... because every time we get close another hostage is taken.

5. No excuse. Last I heard they are waiting for the text to be printed

Out so they can read and then vote both. Jayapal said her 40 Progressives will vote yes on both. I am pretty sure it will be done.

Obama said it would build on what he tried to accomplish!

[Me.]

6. I So Hope That Is Right

But I believe Nancy met that demand so...all systems go?

[Me.]
