    All, Rand Paul just outed the alleged whistleblower on the Senate floor. () We HAVE to keep contacting our Senators. They’re only going to become more brazen.

    Analysis: Iowa won’t go first. It can’t go first. Not anymore.

    Texas pals. Remember: tonight is SOTU and tomorrow's the (unfortunately likely) acquittal vote. Let's get some calls in.

    Because IF the results are different, the Buttigieg campaign has absolutely set it up so his supporters will further question an already beleaguered process. It’s a big question of leadership and unity.

    Even if the data is accurate, and that’s a big IF, there’s no reason he had to claim victory last night. It’s a question of what helps maintain public faith in the process, and that’s letting the Iowa Democratic Party announce first.

    - are very, very different. Buttigieg might eventually be ready, but he’s definitely not there yet. He needs more experience.

    As I’ve publicly stated before, I just don’t think being mayor is adequate qualification for the highest office in the land. I worked in a city government 6x the size of South Bend, and it’s a whole difference process and set of problems. The needs and leadership issues -

    (And if you’re wondering what the nuclear test is, it’s basically the idea that he was willing to push the button first. Refusing to push the button definitely takes stronger effort and more impulse control. Or in other words/cinematic terms, think the beginning of WarGames.)

    And by doing so, he helped interject further uncertainty into the process, and further questions (and doubts) for when the results eventually do come out. It’s not a great leadership quality, TBH.

    Lots of Iowa takes this AM, but I absolutely woke up still thinking about how absolutely bonkers it was, that Pete Buttigieg just really went for it. In my mind, he more or less failed the nuclear test. He showed he basically didn’t have the patience to not blink first.

    And of course, conservatives are also picking up on the rumor. I'm only one voice on here, but please, please don't make it easier for conservatives to sow dissension. Vet before you RT.

    - until accounts/big platforms are now saying Mook designed the app. He did not, FWIW. And please, please be more careful before we spread bad information around elections. We're only harming ourselves when we do so.

    Also. If you want to watch disinformation spread in real time, look up the trending topic for Robby Mook. It's like a weird game of telephone, where one person takes this article from NYT: and keeps interpreting it and interpreting it -

    Paragraph beginning with: "In November, Iowa’s Democratic and Republican Parties teamed up with the Defending Digital Democracy Project at Harvard to run a drill of worst-case scenarios."

    This is the opposite of what we want right now, and you can bet the GOP will try and use this to further pit campaigns against each other. Any declarations can wait until the AM.

    I say this out of nothing but respect for ALL the campaigns, who've worked hard to get to this point. But we're all already on high alert, and stressed/worried about tonight. Seemingly declaring victory based on internals (?), only leads to less faith in the overall process.

    Ok. Can campaigns stop trying to declare victory in Iowa? Does it suck tonight is unfolding like this? Yes. There needs to be fixes, and fast. But boldly declaring victory when results are still uncertain, only interjects additional harm and uncertainty into the process.

    You: Hi, my name is [name], I'm calling from [zip code].

You: I’m calling to let [Senator Cruz/Cornyn] know that I do NOT support their decision to vote against witnesses at the impeachment trial. How are they even remotely fulfilling their responsibilities to uphold the constitution and act as a check on other branches, if they can’t even be bothered to do a fundamental oversight duty? 

You: I’m also calling on [S
