They don't care what they do to others (evil) & don't think of what others can do to them (stupid).
let's fuckin go, leader jeffries.
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.
A social media graphic with a navy blue border and cream background. Navy blue and orange text reads, "Special election update: Virginia says YES! to new congressional maps." At the bottom of the word 'YES!,' an orange outline of the commonwealth of Virginia appears with Governor Abigail Spanberger wearing a white coat inside of the state.
It’s official: Virginians have rejected Trump and Republicans’ efforts to rig the midterms.
In less than 196 days, we will flip the House blue.
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.
Same.
VIRGINIA! Today, you made your voice heard loud and clear against Republicans’ gerrymandering scheme. As voters continue turning away from the GOP’s reckless agenda, one thing is clear: Democrats are on offense heading into the midterms.
WE'RE TAKING BACK THE HOUSE!
The person most responsible for tonight is Trump, I hope he's miserable.
Decision Desk HQ projects the VA Congressional Redistricting Referendum will Pass.
While No currently has the lead, based on the location and size of the remaining vote, Yes will take the lead as soon as the remaining counties report.
#DecisionMade: 8:25 PM EDT
We’ve now reached the part of the referendum where everyone lines up, mutters “goodgamegoodgamegoodgamegoodgame“ a bunch of times with a series of low fives - the winning Yes side slightly more enthusiastic about it- and then they bring out baggies of oranges and Capri Suns for the campaign workers.
Holy shit this is cool!
Let's be clear: The Trump Admin's vendetta against the SPLC is a sign of how impactful their work is.
The SPLC has been at the forefront of exposing some of America's most notorious hate groups, like the KKK. The fact that the Trump Admin feels threatened by that speaks volumes.
As important as it is for the Mets to win tonight, the must win game is in VA as they are counting the votes on redistricting! Let's fucking Go! #MetsSky #VoteYes
Pennsylvania's appellate court confirmed that access to abortion is a fundamental right under the Pennsylvania Constitution.
This decision is a win for all Pennsylvanians.
The government shouldn't be making your healthcare decisions - you should.

Virginia voters hit the polls Tuesday to cast their ballots in a referendum on Democratic leaders’ plan to redraw the state’s congressional map.

Pundits are accomplices & co-conspirators & any honest discussion would implicate them.
It's all connected you see.
Vaccines save lives. Flu outbreaks threaten military readiness. But this Administration clearly doesn’t care.
This Administration's junk science is jeopardizing the health of our troops and our national security. Shameful.
'More and more/fewer and fewer,' 'exact numbers are hard to come by,' and 'there is the sense that,' are hallmarks of the trend story. They push agendas, pad out publications, & have no explanatory power whatever because what they describe generally does not exist.
CA Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas endorses @xavierbecerra.bsky.social !
Becerra is now the frontrunner in the primary!

Simple rule: the Senate should not confirm any appointee to any post who can’t say clearly who legitimately won the 2020 presidential election. Not just who was “installed”, but who won the vote and the electoral college.
When I was in really bad shape, 2018-2021, I seldom spent less than 4-5 hours on hold during a week. I was spending 20-25 hours a week dealing w doctor’s offices, hospitals, pharmacies, & insurance. (Service has gotten so bad that now to do the same tasks would probably take me over 30 hours a week)
Using sensitive or classified information to bet on military actions threatens our national security and puts our service members at risk.
That's why I sent a letter to Polymarket demanding the company preserve and disclose all records of these bets.
🚨🚨🚨 I called it a year and a half ago:

If a company breaks the law and defrauds consumers, consumers should get their money back. Period.
@cantwell.senate.gov’s Consumer Protection Remedies Act of 2026 restores the FTC's power to do exactly that.

If you're a Virginia voter, listen to fellow Virginian, @jamellebouie.net, and VOTE YES on the redistricting amendment.

"Today Virginia votes on a constitutional amendment that would allow mid-decade redistricting — redrawing congressional maps in a way that would eliminate most Republican-held seats in the state. Here is why you should vote 'Yes.'" - @jamellebouie.net bluevirginia.us/2026/04/redi...
