Another good conversation. We all have a stake in the current Democrat candidates. Bob is a builder of coalitions and that's a winning strategy. Best of luck! I can't vote in PA but will be pulling for you.

Simon, Thank you for the great conversation you had with Bob Brooks PA-07, the soft spoken Candidate who has spoken out for what he believes in. Governor Josh Shapiro believes in him, and that's definitely a good reason for him to be the next Congressman of PA-07! Go Kick-Ass Bob! Pennsylvania needs You!

Another win, folks! Looks like the insurrectionist slush fund is on hold, hopefully permanently! https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/crkpyj41m15o

Bring it, Brother Bob! Congress needs you. And be sure to take care of your bulldog--a Hopium favorite breed!

On a related subject, the fabulous Congressman Jason Crowe was on Deadline White House on MSNow this afternoon. He's in charge of recruiting many of our intrepid Congressional candidates this year. He spoke about meeting them in their homes, talking with their families, visiting their small businesses to make his pitch. Their response: "you mean you want me to give up a year or more of my life to campaign, subject myself and my family to the crap on social media, including death threats, miss my kids' baseball games and dance recitals to run for Congress?" Crowe replied, "that's right--because your country needs you." The vast majority said, "where do I sign up; because my country needs me." And those are the fantastic people and candidates Simon has been introducing us to.

Crowe also mentioned that he and several others have started the "Anti-Corruption Caucus" in Congress, so watch for more about that in the coming days. They sure have a lot of material to work with.
