Remind me why we need new leadership in the house?

Not even a week in and the house is already doing the following:

About to pass meaningful gun control legislation that 95% of Americans support and will get to watch the republicans kill.

Have a meaningful debate on Medicare for all(Which I do not support as a way to Universal Healthcare but a debate we need) and will strongly imprint our support for reasonable healthcare for all Americans. Not that we need more. We own the issue.

Telling Donnie FU on a his wall.

Getting the oversight cranked into gear starting with providing Mueller all the transcripts which will probably show perjury and perhaps collusion in that perjury with republican members of congress.

Making Climate Change priority again.


I am glad that Nancy has agreed to limit her time to 4 years and I suspect that if we win the presidency she will resign in 2020. And that is very good because we need to allow our very strong bench of youngsters to grow into their potential and gain leadership

But good god, am I glad we have the experienced leadership we have today.
