NJ Democratic machine fails in backing erstwhile Republican. Tammy Murphy, wife of New Jersey governor, drops out of U.S. Senate race Murphy grew up a Republican and had made large donations to George W. Bush’s presidential campaigns, but had earned the support of many establishment Democrats in the state. Kim had been consolidating support from grass-roots Democrats. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/03/24/murphy-senate-new-jersey-dropout/

Democrats- the only responsible political party which is actually interested in governing saving Johnson's @ss. The radical nihilist cult aka "Republicans" is a danger to American democracy. Democratic leadership vows to rescue Johnson as intrigue grows in Capitol Earlier Tuesday morning, House Democratic leaders — Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), Katherine Clark (D-Mass.) and Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar (D-Calif.) — announced after discussions with colleagues that Democrats would be willing to block any motion to oust Johnson from the speakership. “At this moment, upon completion of our national security work, the time has come to turn the page on this chapter of Pro-Putin Republican obstruction. We will vote to table [Greene’s] Motion to Vacate the Chair. If she invokes the motion, it will not succeed,” the Democratic leadership trio said in a statement. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/04/30/democrats-house-speaker-mike-johnson-motion-to-vacate/
