Not just a win, but a 32-point shift from the last election in this district. In Alabama.

And the right keeps doubling down. 2024 might turn out to be alright.

They are doubling down to radicalize the base. 2024 won’t be all right, it’ll end in violence

Likely enough, I'm afraid. For good or ill, many on the left have learned their lesson and armed themselves. If the 2024 election isn't a blow out for the Democrats, and the Red-hats decide on violence again, it could be a bloodbath.

Violence that we'll prosecute as slowly and as reluctantly as possible.
