Indeed. Complaints about redistricting are invalid. Republicans did it everywhere and invalidated a Constitutional Amendment so they could do it on explicitly racial lines.
There are two choices: use the same levers of power as Republicans do, or let them win. There is no "principled" opposition.
Texas republicans illegally gerrymandered their maps and never once asked voters how they feel about it.
California and Virginia let voters decide.
That’s the difference. They started this fight and Democrats are going to fucking finish it.
A CNBC spox told me "no terms or conditions" were set for the network's "Squawk Box" interview with Trump.
But it seems pro-MAGA host Joe Kernen tried to coax him into the interview with one assurance.

AOC reposted this. Sure seems like a special moment. Just logging on so not sure what was going on, but it sure looked intense.
You ever try to code switch at work and fail? 😂
“This is a guy who the public has understood for a long time is just not qualified for the job and is nothing but a political sycophant and flunky for Donald Trump,” says Rep. Jamie Raskin on FBI director Kash Patel.
Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.
Tonight, Virginians refused to let Trump play games with Americans’ right to fair representation. Thanks to Virginia voters, Governor Spanberger, and Democrats in the VA state legislature, Republicans can’t cheat their way out of accountability in 2026.
We won. 💪
Virginia voters showed up and shut down Trump’s power grab loud and clear. They tried to rig the rules. We used our votes to take the power right back and protect fair maps. This is what it looks like when we fight back — and win.

According the AG Blanche, “The SPLC is manufacturing racism to justify its existence.” This is some whacked out far-right fantasy. Hard to imagine this theory will hold up in court, but the lives of paid informants who infiltrated hate groups will be at risk.

Wow.
Vivek has blown through $20M—including millions on TV—with nothing to show for it as Ohioans continue to reject his scams.
Now in full panic mode he’s about to burn through a lot more.
We won’t be bought.
On a particularly maddening day in Congress, we heard the following:
“Sock puppets”
“Dirt bags”
“Rats penis”
“Whale heads”
Yet we heard precious little about authorizing war in Iran or reopening the Dept of Homeland Security

BREAKING:
WASHINGTON (AP) — Virginia voters approve new US House districts that could aid Democrats in midterm elections.
The good people of Virginia are definitely paying attention and ignoring all the $$ distractions sent their way.👏👏

BREAKING: In a huge win, Virginians voted “Yes” on Democrats’ redistricting plan aimed at countering GOP gerrymanders, according to AP. Full story to come.
I asked X, Paramount, ABC, and Meta where their donations to Trump's Presidential Library went. None of them could give a clear answer.
Tens of MILLIONS of dollars are missing.
Why should Americans trust that this money isn’t going straight into Donald Trump’s pockets?
