Donald Trump and Republicans have tried to rig the 2026 midterms. Today in Virginia, voters sent them a clear message: The power is with the people.

You can have no rage, Republicans, when you lit the fuse.

You just got outplayed

Man is RFK Jr lucky that @aoc.bsky.social didn't actually kick his ass 👊

You ever try to code switch at work and fail? 😂

Trump is really mad at the WSJ for pointing out that he’s getting rolled by Iran.

I just finished writing my reflections on tonight's big win in Virginia. I've been fighting this fight for ten years, including three cases in SCOTUS. Tonight we won a big one at the ballot box.

Texas redistricts without a vote, Republicans cheer.

Dems in Virginia respond by putting it UP FOR A VOTE OF THE PEOPLE, it passes, Republican cry foul.

Oh well. Good job Virginia!!

AOC talking to RFK Jr. Her facial and hand gesture has the spiritual energy of that Italian hand gesture where you pinch your fingers and wave your hand (the "ma che vuo" gesture).

how it feels to say "sprezzatura"

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker has signed an executive order banning state employees from using insider info to bet on prediction market apps like Kalshi and Polymarket, warning the unregulated boom “opens the door to insider trading and abuse.”

Alright, I’m home now so here’s the Norm update. Yesterday at 4pm, I got a text from a family I’ve been helping who had a loved one abducted a couple of days after Renée Good’s murder. This was the family that Norm Nation kept from being evicted (and you delivered). ICE had released their loved one.

BREAKING: TACO TUESDAY: Donald trump delays ethnic cleansing and war crimes again by extending the ceasefire indefinitely.

I’m sure Trump has put the US in a very strong bargaining position by issuing two ultimatums with hard deadlines only to back down both times after Iran called his bluff.

4-D chess from the cult leader.

This Data Center Is Getting a $77 Million Tax Break to Create One Job No other project in the country has gotten such a large subsidy to create so few jobs, according to watchdogs.

A New Jersey data center will reportedly receive $77 million in tax breaks — while only creating one permanent job.

One job, in exchange for higher utility bills, noise pollution, and potential groundwater pollution.

Is it any wonder communities are organizing to stop data centers?

CHRIS WRIGHT: Energy prices are still well lower than they were in middle of the Biden adminis--

CANTWELL: I want to stop you right there. There is nobody in the Northwest who thinks that. Not when they wake up & airline flights are being canceled because of high fuel costs. No one thinks it's okay

This is amazing.

RUIZ: Bloomberg reports that Trump & the WH have benched you because you're making the president look bad

RFK Jr: That's not true

RUIZ: I think the reporting is correct. You're making the president look bad. You talked publicly about snorting cocaine off a toilet bowl seat. Your words, not mine.

If not for Trump, what's the emoluments clause for? What's impeachment for? What's the 25th Amendment for? What's section 3 of the 14th Amendment for? What are checks and balances for?

The baddies are cherrypicking the Constitution the same way they do the bible: for their own benefit.

“I’m the consumer. I paid higher prices because of Trump’s tariffs. Do I get a refund?”

“No.”

Heads they win, tails we lose.

Tucker Carlson: “I’ll be tormented for a long time by the fact that I played a role in getting Donald Trump elected. And I want to say that I’m sorry for misleading people.”

This is what democracy looks like.

Thank you to all the protestors.

Why is the House not holding Bondi in contempt? Why is Oversight not holding Epstein hearings? Why is Oversight not doing more in this case?

Good Question! (1/3)

When history repeats itself, traveling is a political act, Rick Steves tells Bellingham | Cascadia Daily News The travel guru says the response to global uncertainty isn't to stay in but to get out

Going abroad as an American in today's world? Get ready to explain the electoral college, travel guru Rick Steves says.

Turns out the phrase “America First” is preceded by the words “Sell Out.”

Rep. Analilia Mejia didn’t come to play.

She went back to the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871.

Then brought it straight to now.

“Stand up, defend, restore not only our democracy but also a just economy that actually works for working people.”

I had the opportunity to confront Pete Hegseth's bigoted spiritual mentor, Pastor Doug Wilson, and call him out on his history of hate, his misreading of the Bible, his hijacking of Jesus, and his cosplay Crusading.

It was worth it.
