Normally when you're arrested you're allowed to call a lawyer, and your family knows where you are. From Webster's - to cause (someone or something) to disappear: to abduct and kill or imprison (someone, such as a political dissident) while withholding information about the person's fate.

When I say we’re going to protect vaccine access in Massachusetts, I’m not just talking about the COVID vaccine. I’m talking about the vaccines for measles, mumps, rubella and more that keep our children healthy. It’s not political — it’s public health.

I recently read "Empresses of Seventh Avenue: WWII, NYC, and the Birth of American Fashion" I learned so much about how American style originally influenced by French Haute Couture,changed during WWII and subsequently influenced Haute Couture designers post WWII.

No leadership qualities? Jeffries has been able to hold the fractious dem caucus together to vote against whatever the repubs put up. That's quiet thoughtful leadership. Also, don't assume that someone who is quiet by nature and typically an introvert doesn't have passion.

As far as stopping Trump - what is any Senator able to do? The power is in the states. Govenors, AGs, the lawyers fighting against the administration and the courts. There's little democratic senators in Congress can get passed. They can slow down the progress of Trumpism but they can't stop it.

Sponsoring a bill to solve a problem, letting the public know that she's doing her job, and working to get Congress to pass the bill, is not performative. She's doing what she can do while being in the minority.

Not necessarily. Massachusetts is a very populated blue state. We have no Republicans in Congress. So there won't be any redistricting. NY has hurdles to jump over and any redistricting won't take affect until 2027 or 2028.
