Post-Midterm Monday with Digby: Accountability, Hegseth, and Don't Be a Darlene

We just had the election we've been waiting a decade for, so let's take a breath and enjoy it for about an hour.

I open with an update from Ukraine. Last week I tried to reach my friend Tanya, whose Kyiv hostel I first called right as Russia invaded, and she hung up on me. She's okay, and she wrote back with an incredible story of resilience that I share with her blessing.

Then Digby joins me. She calls this the best election of her life. We talk about Trump's brand-new claim that the election was rigged, Andrew Sullivan's piece saying he should resign, Arizona's Democratic trifecta, and Elizabeth Lee's near-miss in AZ-5. We get into what Democrats should do now: pass the agenda, expect the veto, and hold the hearings and subpoenas that accountability demands. We also touch on Hegseth impeachment articles, the 2028 field, and Salon.com shutting down.

Plus a request to help one of our own family members, Jan Morgan, after a house fire. And breaking at the end: Lauren Boebert has lost! Good riddance. At least we're taking out the trash!
