Starting a mid-decade redistricting war only to end up with -1 seats is the same fine strategic genius and subtle grasp of game theory that brough us the Strait of Hormuz.

Luis Tiant relaxing while watching the ballgame in the dugout.

3. The indictment doesn’t mention that SPLC provided intelligence from its informant program to law enforcement/FBI to dismantle extremist groups.

But that fact, which will surely come out in discovery, undermines the entire premise the DOJ/FBI case.

Not a penny to make life more affordable for American families, but $70 BILLION for ICE to terrorize our communities.

Listen, they are building concentration camps and threatening genocide against a country of 90 million people. There is not a single remotely legal tactic that is impermissible when it comes to stopping them.

Virginia Senate President Pro Tempore L. Louise Lucas: “You all started it, and we f—ing finished it”

The Associated Press is reporting that the Virginia Redistricting Referendum has passed!

Virginians land yet another blow to Donald Trump’s attempts to maintain power over Congress.

One winner: Virginia State Senator & dedicated poster L. Louise Lucas, who spearheaded the “10-1!” push

Rotating villain theory undefeated

I think of my new district as the Exit 118B District—a district so absurd that it includes both UVa and Virginia Tech, each of which are reached via exit 118B from their respective highways.

So much false equivalence in media on gerrymandering in Texas vs California & Virginia. California and Virginia maps approved by the voters. That's a huge difference not enough people pointing out

I would submit that a gerrymander by politicians saying fuck the voters and one by voters saying fuck the politicians are two wholly different animals

if there’s one thing i expect a CIA officer to know, it’s whether or not a given election is gonna be fair #voteyes

Tweet from Pete Hegseth: "The War Department is once again restoring freedom to our Joint Force. We are discarding the mandatory flu vaccine, effective immediately."

Pete Hegseth: "No more mandatory flu vaccines."

History: "Well Pete, In WW1, influenza killed as many American soldiers as died in combat, about 50,000".

it’s so cool how you just *know* this will result in republicans calling the election rigged because they’re too stupid to understand that every single vote cannot all be counted at this exact same time

I asked my 13 year old son what hogwarts house he would be in and he slid his hand up his ass crack and slapped me in the face with it

MAGA influencers been finding out lately that gay and trans people got hands. I fucking hate seeing people getting harassed - but these influencers getting KTFO is what they get.

Blue areas of Virginia are holding up well for the "YES."

Portsmouth just got done counting. The yes won by 41%.

Jones, too, won by 41%. Spanberger won by 47%.

Norfolk is done too: YES won here by 43%. (Jones won here by 45%, and Spanberger by 52%.)

IF YOU’RE IN LINE TO GET CONTROL OF THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ, STAY IN LINE

They can also stop this any time they want with a federal gerrymandering ban, but they don't want that!

Newly released records detail police response to lawmaker attacks Authorities first identified Vance Boelter as a suspect within three hours of the start of the politically motivated rampage.

A senior law enforcement official said the situation fit the description of an active shooter.

That meant officers should have gone into the Hortman home to confront Vance Boelter and not waited to deploy drones.

defund the police

lol imagine how far outta line you have to be to get this particular iteration of the FDA on your ass

Screenshot of a tweet by Bryan Behar (@bryanbehar) joking that we've reached the "Cabinet applauds because President can sign his own name phase of dementia," quote-tweeting Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) who captured Trump remarking after signing his name, "Oh, that's a good one. Look at that, Joe. Do you think Biden can do that?" The embedded video shows Trump leaning over a desk signing a document.

Do we applaud when he names all five animals in a cognitive test? Trying to understand the protocol.

The National Disgrace and Danger of Kash Patel The FBI Director is a national embarrassment — and desperate to keep his job.

It’s been a few months since I wrote about how bad Kash Patel was at being FBI director, so let’s check in over at the FBI, shall we?

As a Democrat, I now feel cleaner; vaguely ineffectual and in constant argument with every other Democrat, sure, but definitely cleaner.

Dershowitz leaving the dems is a sign dems are doing something right

The yard signs have helped me flesh out my ongoing informal mapping of which neighbors are potential allies. Had a few on both sides pop up who previously hadn’t posted any political signs or flags.

TRUMP: I WOULD HAVE WON VIETNAM VERY QUICKLY
