In reply to the discussion: Biden commutes life sentence of Leonard Peltier [View all]calimary
(84,917 posts)46. Welcome to DU, PhilG!
I started noticing that expired-website labeling popping up in a few places by late yesterday. Looked up my now-former Rep. Chavez-DeRemer and got nothing. Like she never even existed.
Of course, if she makes it to Labor Secretary, well be seeing and hearing WAAAAAAAY more than we may ever have wanted to. She wasnt exactly a frequent communicator during her single term in Congress, although she did seem to enjoy getting her picture taken with groups of handsome firefighters.
But good riddance. Weve got a Democrat back in that job now, and shes well-known from four terms in the state legislature. Well have MUCH better representation from Janelle Bynum.
