This is a special edition of TPM’s Morning Memo focused on President Biden’s decision to end his re-election campaign. Sign up for the email version. Turmoil v. Uncertainty The only two things we know with any certainty at the moment are (1) we’ll have a different president come January than we do now; and (2) if the…
First?!
How is that possible?
ETA: glad the Dems are quickly rallying around Harris, Biden is getting lauded in the way he has so deserved and T-boy, diaper baby is in a tailspin.
The prosecutor versus the felon. Where do I get the bumper sticker?
LOCK HIM UP!
I don’t think fundraising is going to be an issue for Kamala. The apparatus is already set up and it was humming yesterday.
I love how T-boy is already refusing to debate Harris.
Scaredy cat?
Whatever else is true: There ought to be some limit to the number of times one man is required to save our Republic. We should put statues of Joseph R. Biden up in every town square.
I’m definitely more ready to contribute now that a way forward looks more certain.
3 things:
- Joe Biden: wow
- Kamala Harris: Step up to the plate
- The Presidential election: game on
“There is some poetry that in our national “break the glass in the case of emergency” moment, we turn to a Black woman to bail us out.”
We know that Trumpty Dumpty is scared crapless by women of color…
I think I read that Biden/Harris had about $90M cash on hand on Saturday. I expect that to double before the end of the day or tomorrow at the latest.
I for one am shocked that TFG hasn’t already started treating Harris with the same racist, sexist abuse he has heaped on Fani Willis, yet. Seeing as how JD Vance was attacked for having a non Nordic looking wife at the convention, I figured he would’ve already started posting burning crosses by now.
As a bonus, having a powerful woman of color facing him down must be driving TFG absolutely insane(er), lol.
God wanted Donald Trump to live so he can lose to a black woman.

Kamala Harris as President will have the unlimited powers that Roberts thought he was bestowing on that POS. I hope Alito and Thomas shat themselves when this went down.
Interesting that this is the earliest MM has been out in months.
I guess the main story is that important that waiting a couple more hours wouldn’t be prudent…
Seeing as how he’s trying to court POC women into his ‘big tent’, that would be a disaster. With this change yesterday, his task just became a good bit more difficult.
There is overwhelming support for VP Harris. I saw Manchin is out. Have all the “hot” governors endorsed Harris by now? Will there be any challengers other than Marianne Williamson?
