I am thinking about it.
I haven’t ruled it out, Rep. Dean Phillips, on 'The Warning' podcast.
However, Phillips also said that it's a "steep slope.".
I think there are people who are more proximate, better prepared to campaign with national organizations, national name recognition, which I do not possess, Rep. Dean Phillips, on 'The Warning' podcast.
Phillips, who has called on other
Democrats to challenge Biden, is
"concerned that there is no alternative.".
I’m concerned that something could happen between now and next November that would make the Democratic Convention in Chicago an unmitigated disaster, Rep. Dean Phillips, on 'The Warning' podcast.

My candidacy is very unlikely to be
part of this. But I’ve used the moment and the spotlight that came with my
call to action to encourage others, Rep. Dean Phillips, to the 'Minneapolis Star Tribune' in August 2023.
Meanwhile, Phillips previously said that if Biden received the Democratic nomination, he will do whatever he can to "ensure he is reelected."

Dallas Mayor , Joins Republican Party.
Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson, who once served in the Texas legislature as a Democrat, is switching political parties, CNN reports.
In an op-ed for 'The Wall Street Journal' published
on Sept. 22, Johnson blamed Democrats for "exacerbated crime and homelessness.".
The future of America’s great urban centers depends on the willingness of the nation’s mayors to champion law and order and practice fiscal conservatism, Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson, via 'Wall Street Journal' op-ed.
Our cities desperately need the genuine commitment to these principles (as opposed to the inconsistent, poll-driven commitment of many Democrats) that has long been a defining characteristic of the GOP, Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson, via 'Wall Street Journal' op-ed.
Johnson went on to say, "In other words, American cities need Republicans—and Republicans need American cities.".
While much of Texas is dominated by Republicans, Dallas is typically blue-leaning, CNN reports.
The Texas Democratic Party condemned
Johnson's op-ed and accused him of dishonesty.
[T]he voters of Dallas deserved to know where he stood before he ran for reelection as mayor, Texas Democratic party chair and vice chair, via statement.
He wasn’t honest with his constituents, and knew he would lose to a Democrat if he flipped before the election, Texas Democratic party chair and vice chair, via statement.
Meanwhile, Gov. Greg Abbott
welcomed Johnson to the GOP.
Texas is getting more Red every day. He’s pro law enforcement & won’t tolerate leftist agendas, TX Gov. Greg Abbott, via X

New Bill Looks to Give , All US Children Medicaid.
'Newsweek' reports that a new bill introduced
in the Senate looks to extend Medicaid
coverage to all children in the United States.
The draft measure would reportedly
enroll children in the federal health
insurance program automatically.
As Americans, it is our solemn
obligation to ensure every child
has the support they need
to reach their full potential, Bob Casey, Senior Democratic senator
for Pennsylvania, via 'Newsweek'.
Currently, minors are only
eligible if their family's income
is 138% of the federal poverty level. .
The Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) says that approximately
4.2% of children in the U.S. are currently uninsured.
'Newsweek' reports that this
equates to an estimated 3.12 million
minors without health insurance.
Too many of our kids are
struggling to stay healthy
because their families can't
afford the care they need, Bob Casey, Senior Democratic senator
for Pennsylvania, via 'Newsweek'.
The proposed bill would give all children
health insurance until the age of 18,
while giving parents the ability to opt out.
However, 'Newsweek' reports that the bill is likely to
face firm opposition in the House, where GOP
lawmakers have pushed to limit government spending.
The bill comes as the government
faces a looming shutdown
over the federal budget.
