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!!

As Kemp notes, in “special elections, Democrats have been overperforming” both in his home state of Georgia and across the country. History has shown that when a party overperforms in special elections — (cont.)

Trump promised to cut electric costs in half. Bills in energy-rich West Virginia now top mortgages West Virginia resident Rebecca Michalski struggles with soaring electricity bills that exceed her income.

"You will never have had energy so low as you will under a certain gentleman known as Donald J. Trump." -Donald J. Trump

Energy bills are soaring across the U.S., especially in states like West Virginia, thanks to data centers and Trump's War in Iran and attacks on clean energy.

We deserve better.

The increased prices you are paying for gas and nearly every other product since Feb 28 is Donald Trump’s national sales tax on the American people to finance his war of aggression.

Certain writers (*cough* NYT Opinion *cough*) overread the durability of illiberal nationalism and scoffed at pro-democracy appeals, but they only listened to each other, never allowing alternate opinions into their elite bubble. That left them unable to grasp everything from Hungary to Minneapolis.

Trump Humiliated With New Poll as Americans Rail Against Him The president is falling underwater in most aspects of his presidency.

President Donald Trump’s war on Iran continues to plummet in popularity among Americans.

Democrat Wins Mayoral Race in Republican-Leaning Waukesha, Wis.

Voters in Waukesha, Wisconsin — a Republican-leaning Milwaukee suburb — just elected a Democrat as mayor, according to The Associated Press.

Alicia Halvensleben, the Democratic president of the city's Common Council, defeated Scott Allen, a result that could signal a political shift in the suburbs.

FUN FACT: With last night’s election results, Democrats have now won or overperformed in 264 of 295 key elections since Trump took office — a rate of nearly 90%.

Fetterman’s support makes this possible. From his votes to confirm Kristie Noem and Pam Bondi to his unwillingness to speak out when it called for wiping out an entire civilization, the work of this administration is made possible by Fetterman. We deserve better.

All of them just announced layoffs—after getting huge corporate tax breaks last year.

We're still waiting for the responses to the letters @warren.senate.gov sent them demanding answers.

Feb 13 — White House on Noem, in a statement: “The President continues to have full confidence in the Secretary.”

Mar 6 — White House on Bondi, in a statement: “The President has full faith in the Attorney General.”

Start the clock.

Congressional Republicans Want to Cut Healthcare to Fund War The estimated cost of the conflict with Iran is $890 million per day.

Americans tax dollars are being funneled to military defense contractors like Lockheed Martin and RTX to help carry out Trump's war with Iran.

These contractors, which are political donors with strong lobby efforts, are now profiting by the billions.
