Virginiaās new map will give Democrats the chance to flip four seats currently held by Republicans. That could put Dems slightly ahead in the national mid-decade gerrymandering warsāa result few thought possible when Trump picked the fight by pushing Texas Republicans to redraw their map last year.

A mass shooting that took the lives of eight children should stop this country in its tracks. Instead, the Shreveport tragedy disappeared from the headlines in a day. We cannot allow this level of violence to fade into background noise. Ending Americaās gunāviolence epidemic is a moral oblligation.

Trump's war hurt the US but helped China as NY Times reports: "China appears poised to profit from high energy prices and depressed oil inventories caused by the war, as countries turn to it, warily, for the renewable energy technology they need to replace fossil fuels." (Plus Trump helped Russia)
Well, at least the BBC is covering this.

What part of donāt trust you to run a bath donāt you get Donald?
Four Republican districts would become much bluer, going from:
2nd: Trump+0 to Harris+5
1st: Trump+5 to Harris+8.5
5th: Trump+12 to Harris+8.5
6th: Trump+24 to Harris+3
Democrats already could flip the two bluest seats on the current map, but their chances would greatly increase on the new map
EV sales surged everywhere apart from the US, rising more than 20% globally in 2025
* EVs were half of Chinese sales and electric truck sales in China tripled
* EV sales outside CN/Eu/US grew 80% (!)

Of COURSE he's insider trading. He's a crook, he's ALWAYS been a crook, he's using the presidency to make billions.
He ran to stay out of jail, to make money and to feel powerful, because that's what a narcissist like him gets off on. It was never about helping people.
Why is no one hair on fire that half a million children have died in the year since USAID was gutted?
Why donāt these kids deserve the same outrage as others dying in war or genocide?
Is it because these childrenās deaths arenāt politically advantageous to those running in primaries for Congress?
NOTE: If Kash Patel indeed brings manufactured criminal cases over the 2020 election this weekāsomething he knows a lot about, as he sought fake evidence from Kremlin agents to steal the 2020 election for Trumpāitās *not about 2020*.
Itās about rigging elections *going forward*.
They didn't just pardon them.
They're erasing the convictions entirely.
Not...you're guilty but forgiven.
But...the guilty verdicts never should have happened.
There's a difference.
And it matters enormously for what comes next.

Trump post on Truth Social: Iran decided to fire bullets yesterday in the Strait of Hormuz ā A Total Violation of our Ceasefire Agreement! Many of them were aimed at a French Ship, and a Freighter from the United Kingdom. That wasn't nice, was it? My Representatives are going to Islamabad, Pakistan ā They will be there tomorrow evening, for Negotiations. Iran recently announced that they were closing the Strait, which is strange, because our BLOCKADE has already closed it. They're helping us without knowing, and they are the ones that lose with the closed passage, $500 Million Dollars a day! The United States loses nothing. In fact, many Ships are headed, right now, to the U.S., Texas, Louisiana, and Alaska, to load up, compliments of the IRGC, always wanting to be "the tough guy!" We're offering a very fair and reasonable DEAL, and ! hope they take it because, if they don't, the United States is going to knock out every single Power Plant, and every single Bridge, in Iran. NO MORE MR. NICE GUY! They'll come down fast, they'll come down easy and, if they don't take the DEAL, it will be my Honor to do what has to be done, which should have been done to Iran, by other Presidents, for the last 47 years. IT'S TIME FOR THE IRAN KILLING MACHINE TO END! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Migrants deported from the United States by Trump "routinely disappear into El Salvador's prisons the moment they land or in the weeks that follow. Many are held incommunicado, cut off from family and lawyers for months, even years."
KARL: Is Trump really prepared to go back to full-on war? Is he prepared to destroy every power plant & bridge?
WALTZ: Well, all options are on the table, absolutely. That's not a war crime
K: He's saying every bridge in the country. That's not a war crime?
W: That would be an escalatory ladder
He might as well answer in Russian.
So we get multiple conflicting reports, including from Trump himself, that Vance is or is not leading the US delegation for peace talks on Tuesday, then we get multiple reports from Iran state media that they have no plans to attend peace talks on Tues & didnāt know about it.

But none of this is true according to Prince William County Director of Elections Eric Olsen, who told Democracy Docket that the RNC is ātrying to invent a headline to further a political agendaā and āto fabricate a nonexistent problem.ā www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
