    Democratic Rep. Dean Phillips of Minnesota to challenge Biden for 2024 nomination

    After months of hinting, Rep. Dean Phillips announced that he would challenge President Joe Biden for the Democratic nomination in 2024. The Minnesota congressman has been a staunch critic of Biden’s re-election bid and has previously called on other candidates to challenge the president.

    This changes the dynamic now.

    You may have missed it, but the DNC has already rigged it for Biden. Ask RFK, Jr.

    You're still leaving a lot of tracking gunk on your links. I mean, look at all of this:

    ?cid=eml_nbn_20231026&user_email=31538fe77b084701975d9091aa0bbf4ef284dc0ddf7d4abb252027c596581efa&utm_campaign=breakingnews&$3p=e_sailthru&_branch_match_id=1183567250988560924&utm_medium=Email Sailthru&_branch_referrer=H4sIAAAAAAAAAzWP0YqEMAxFv8Z9q1NbHXVgWBaW+Q1J2zgNU2tpK/7+xoeFPCT3cg+5vtZUHrdbNDbiWVpIqQ0UPzedvhvV6/TEpQCF6vPxxcKe6U0RwnLk8PRXuNE/jXrxnOfZ/mPsvrGS9kCVbOFVSdULDGgr7ZFvh9tuM7ArMibhEKJInkKgVESAI1qPRZyeKgq/HwWFISeshxAw8gfv60aRbYROKaY3+mXJNfoXt7BEExfWdCfVvVF3jucFN67Bvu4GPa04jkZO/Si7eRzcLOcOQBqz9riqqXdWOreOrgdj1MCk0Q7zfZg6XOHi1W2xsCWgd2SiyQgffulq/gdpLHLGUAEAAA==​

    All of that is tacked on to the useful part of the link you shared! And it all serves just to track user habits and feed the Big Data machine.

    But anyway, It is interesting to see a Democrat enter the race to challenge Biden. He is doing so on the right grounds. I agree that Biden should step aside and allow a younger candidate to run.

    I think they are changing their minds. RFK Jr. will never be controlled by the DNC and the Ruling Class which is why they did everything to assassinate his character. Big mistake on their part. Polls are showing RFK is pulling votes from Biden. It remains to be seen how Phillips is treated.

    I disagree, that the entering of the race, of this Minnesota House member who most have never even heard of, "changes the dynamic." In Phillips' announcement, he says he thinks that Biden has done a "spectacular job for our country." The only reason he gives for his candidacy-- for a position that I would suspect he is very light in his qualifications, and his thinking here, only adds to making suspect, his judgement-- is that "the numbers," meaning poll results, more than a year out from the election, paint a poor picture. Just what we need: a leader who makes decisions, based on near meaningless polls.

    We will have to see if Phillips can meet the requirements, in polling results and voter contributions, to qualify for the debate stage. If not, this announcement changes nothing.

    Oh you don't know? He won't even get the Bernie treatment. They're not even gonna let him on a stage with the dementia-riddled idiot.

    I'm not so sure Phillips can win so this most likely will battle harden Conpetent Dark Brandon who may have slowed down a bit but still governs with experience and to the center.

    So two Democrats and one former Democrat turned Independent are running against Joe. Not looking good for Joey or the DNC.
