No Lie No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen Y @ NoLieWithBTC Trump just issued a last-minute warning to Virginians that if they vote YES on the redistricting referendum tomorrow, he will lose power: "If the Democrats get additional seats, they're going to be making changes at the federal level." VIRGINIA SEMPER

Virginia — today is the day. Vote YES. Trump started this race in July ’25, ordering Texas to carve out 5 new GOP seats mid-decade. California answered. Missouri, NC, Indiana followed. Now VA levels the map. Polls open 6a–7p. The House majority runs through your ballot today.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Maj @lif3asmaj.bsky.social This would be like putting me in charge of curating what's appropriate at a Claire's. Mrs. Betty Bowers @mrsbettybowers.... • 1h This former model, with no background in history, has been put in charge of curating what is "appropriate" at the National Museum of African American History. August 13, 2025 at 12:25 PM ® Everybody can reply

Her name is Lindsey Halligan. Her stated problem with the African American History Museum, in her own words to Fox News: it has “an overemphasis on slavery” and should focus more on “how far we’ve come since.” That’s the actual criteria she’s using to curate it.

Trump tells Iran to sign deal with US or 'the whole country is going to get blown up' John Bowden Sun, April 19, 2026 at 7:22 AM PDT

Fact-checked: he really said it. The president of the United States publicly threatened to destroy a country of 90 million people if they don’t sign by Wednesday. This is on the record.

Ben Grimes * O @softreeds Following Remember when Dan Quayle misspelled "potato", and everyone was like "that's a good enough reason for him not to be president"? We should be like that again.

I want to urge you to make waves. I want to urge you to rock the boat. I want to urge you to get off your duff. I want you to speak out at whatever cost if it comes from your heart. You're going to build this country in which my six grandchildren will grow up. And when you see what you have done, I hope that you are proud of it. Ann Richards

Donald J. Trump @reaDonaldTrump • 15m Iran has agreed to never close the Strait of Hormuz again. It will no longer be used as a weapon against the World! President DONALD J. TRUMP 966 1.53k 7.32k 企 ANNNNNNODDD IT'S CLOSED.

Strait normally carries ~20M barrels/day (≈20% of global oil); Oil peaked at $126.

IRAN STRAIT OPEN STRAIT CLOSED TRUMP

Day 50 of Operation Epic Fury: The Iranians have closed the Strait of Hormuz again. 13 US troops killed, 520+ wounded. Pentagon burning ~$1B/day , with a $200B supplemental requested. 5,000+ dead regionally —1,701+ Iranian civilians (254 kids), 2,020+ Lebanese .

Every country on this chart was trending UP before January 2025. Then Trump took office and every line — Austria, Germany, UK, Spain, all of them — falls off a cliff simultaneously. European tourism brings $60B/year to the US. That bill lands on Main Street.

NEW JERSEY / HOUSE 11 PROJECTED WINNER ANALILIA MEJIA Dem Wins New Jersey Special Election For US House • April 17, 2026 • Congress, Democrats

🥳 Mejia’s NJ win extends a striking streak: Democrats have flipped 30 Republican-held seats since Trump took office. Republicans have flipped zero. Democrats are also winning in districts where more registered Republicans than Democrats showed up to vote.

I worry about our economy if Trump is removed from office. People will be partying for weeks and not show up to work.

😂🤪

Who do you think Democrats should get behind to make sure we don’t hand this race to the MAGA crowd?

ECY Emerson College Polling @EmersonPolling NEW: CALIFORNIA POLL with @CaliforniaICP 2026 Primary for Governor Steve Hilton 17% Chad Bianco 14% Tom Steyer 14% Xavier Becerra 10% Katie Porter 10% Matt Mahan 5% Antonio Villaraigosa 3% Betty Yee 1% Tony Thurmond 1% 23% undecided

🚨Fellow California Democrats — the new Emerson poll is a wake-up call. Steyer, Becerra, and Porter are all in double digits, but if we stay divided, Hilton and Bianco could lock up both spots in the general. California uses a top-two primary, so every vote matters.

DEMOCRATS DELIVER Democrats Deliver @DemzDeliver HUGE: All new Minnesota parents can now take 12 weeks paid leave. 1:43 PM • 11 Apr 26 • 219K Views

If you believe family comes first, fund it. Minnesota’s 12-week paid leave is what putting families first actually looks like in practice. Minnesota Republicans unanimously opposed this pro-family legislation. Elections matter.
