And those 9 districts that moved toward the GOP... Trump's approval rating is now in the 30s, so maybe diluting their districts wasn't the best idea.

Believe it or don't, but there was a place for "responsible" subprime lending, if lenders worked with borrowers to create loan terms that were manageable.

The problem is that most of the industry dropped "responsible" and went crazy, and the government didn't step in until it was too late.

Exactly. I'm no math whiz, but if you take out that area, looks to me like Harris still would have won the state by about 138,000.

This is stupid, even by Sean Davis standards.

Just looking at 2024, Arlington Co. and Alexandria together gave Harris a roughly 122,000 vote margin. Move those voters back to DC, and Harris still would have won VA by about 138,000 votes.

It's going to take a lot more than that to save the GOP.

Looking forward to Jeanine Pirro trying to sell it to a jury of DC residents.

'Unfit for office': MAGA lawmaker thrashed for telling off Pope Leo in clash with Trump Political analysts and observers thrashed a MAGA Republican on Wednesday after he told Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics."Speaking to a reporter from the Meidas Network, Rep. Troy Nehls (R-TX) sai...

It's too bad Troy Nehls wasn't in office to say this to Rev. Jerry Falwell and Rev. Pat Robertson. Not that he would have.

But it's good he wasn't in office to say this to Rev. Martin Luther King. Because he so would have.

Mike Johnson: "I still haven't seen it."

If I ever get elected to Congress, I'm going to vote "present" on every nonbinding resolution like this.

Whether I agree with a resolution, or in this case think it's stupid as hell, it will have zero impact on the voters who sent me to make actual policies.

Republicans held the majority and conservative groups they listen to were against her, so Democrats and liberal groups embracing her more would have... helped her somehow?

That's a fascinating take.

DOJ is going to have to go through a grand jury made of DC residents... and roughly 6 percent of them voted for Trump.

Let's see how that goes.

Looks like somebody got into Junior's medicine cabinet.

And the fact that they interviewed a professor of physics and Waffle House staff is just brilliant.

Why not just pull security camera footage from the Waffle House in question...

Ticketmaster seat map for Bruce Springsteen's May 27 concert at Nationals Park, showing the vast majority of the seats have already been sold, making Trump's boycott pointless.

If MAGA is gonna boycott Bruce Springsteen because Trump said so... they'd better act fast.

We have a Congress?

@theonion.com you really outdid yourselves this time.

"I need Congress to pass a bill to keep funding ICE. Also, I have all the money I need to keep funding ICE."

It's amazing what you can say when you think your base is a bunch of idiots.

The most important question is: will his chair have a headrest, or will his head keep bobbing all over as he sleeps?

Did Coulter just take a shot at MTG with the Dominion comment, though?

I mean, good on MTG for turning against Trump, but I can't keep track of who's going after who on the right these days.

But he can bench 315.
