Democrats to Biden: Time to make changes at the White House
NBC News ^ | February 16, 2022 | By Jonathan Allen and Natasha Korecki

WASHINGTON — There’s a growing sense among Democrats that it’s time for a change of course at the White House — whether that means new strategy or new staffers.

On the political front, President Joe Biden’s numbers aren’t getting better, his message isn’t resonating, and his party’s midterm prospects are bleak. On policy, his Build Back Better plan is dead, Covid is alive, and inflation is rising.

If he doesn’t take a new tack soon, it may be impossible for him to deliver for the public, help his party in November or move an agenda in the final three years of his term, according to a dozen lawmakers, White House officials and veteran Democratic Party operatives who spoke to NBC News about their concerns.

While only a handful of Democrats have called for heads to roll in the White House — even privately — there is broader agreement within the party that Biden can’t keep doing the same things and expect different results.

The White House likes the current direction just fine and doesn’t care about the mid-term elections.

Ask the White House why that is.

The biggest decision Biden makes is chocolate or tapioca pudding before his nap. The direction of the White House is therefore not driven by the man elected but rather by the democrat party rulers. The White House is a direct reflection of the rat party as a whole. Party rulers are getting nervous about how obvious that has become.

From the article
“help his party in November”.
That is the problem. The Party.
Not the USA, or Americans, the
Party is the focus.
It is hard to support someone or
compromise with them when they want
to kill you.

Biden: What? Make changes at the White House? I’ve changed my Depends countless times a month. Ask Jill or those hardworking interns who go around here with those swimmers’ nose clips on.

Democratic group launches super PAC to counter election deniers running for office
NBC News ^ | February 16, 2022 | By Teaganne Finn
Posted on 2/16/2022, 3:54:32 PM by Oldeconomybuyer

WASHINGTON — The Democratic organization American Bridge 21st Century said it is launching a new multi-million dollar super PAC targeting Republican candidates running for key state and local offices who have denied the results of the 2020 election.

“Our plan is to target extremist Republicans who want to overturn our democracy and expose their dangerous ideas,” said Pat Dennis, vice president of research at American Bridge, in a video on Twitter, announcing the campaign.

The new group, called Bridge to Democracy, has already identified the positions in key states “that are most essential to election administration and to election certification in 2024,” said Dennis.

The group says it will initially spend $10 million to influence races for positions that oversee election administration in key states, according to Tiffiany Vaughn, a spokesperson for American Bridge. And it has already assigned 22 researchers to begin examining the records and backgrounds of candidates in a dozen states.

The super PAC plans to target races in Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Texas and Wisconsin.

The New York Times first reported on the new PAC.

as far as the mid-terms, agreed. Clinton only changed course after the Dems got creamed in his first term. Obama also got the Dems creamed in his first mid-term election. Obama didn't change course, however...he freaking weaponized the entire federal government against his political opponents.
