The US is gerrymandered for the Republicans in the Senate by 5 northwestern states with tiny populations, but red states have gerrymandered the shit out of their districts forever.
Are the women back there somewhere? Yes, I think I see them.
White supremacist propagandist Tucker Carlson says he’s sorry for the role he played in helping the orange felon acquire power and that it torments him.
Apology not accepted you treasonous hateful scumbag Russian agent. You don’t get to take any of it back, you own it forever.
These two editorials by the Washington Post expose how the Republican Party and Democratic Party are held to completely different standards by the media.
Texas gerrymander: “Not a threat to democracy.”
Virginia gerrymander: “Power grab by Democrats.”
Lot of people on the right crying about the Virginia redistricting vote.
We told you this would happen while you were celebrating the illegal off-cycle seat grab in Texas.
Stop playing stupid games if you don’t want to win stupid prizes.
A lesson to all businessmen in the ear of Trump: You will now forever be known as the guy who kissed Trump's ass. That is your legacy. May your grandchildren be proud of you.
He's literally going to fire all the women and not any of the drunk guys.
A small puppy sits in the sun, casting a shadow that looks like Batman.
It’s not all about who you are, it’s also about how you show up!

The verdict of a prominent conservative website and magazine:
"A 79-year-old man who has long dealt in chaos is now being consumed by that chaos. His episodes are becoming more frequent, his good days further apart. What he has lost is not a sense of decency or decorum—he never had those...
Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.
If Republicans hate the CA and VA redistricting, they can thank the person responsible - Donald J. Trump.
None of it would’ve been possible without his leadership on this issue.
Screenshot of a tweet by Democrats Deliver (@DemzDeliver) highlighting that Minnesota now has the third lowest poverty rate in the nation, 45% lower than West Virginia. The post includes a split image of Governor Tim Walz smiling outdoors and an aerial view of the Minneapolis skyline along a river.
Blue governing leads the way.
JUST IN: A federal judge has tossed a defamation lawsuit Kash Patel brought against former FBI official / pundit Frank Figliuzzi.
Figliuzzi’s claim that Patel spent more time in nightclubs than at FBI HQ was “rhetorical hyperbole,” the judge rules.

Remember, Democrats have repeatedly advanced measures to ban partisan gerrymandering and Republicans have voted against them time after time.
This is the game Republicans wanted to play. OK, then.
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!!

Incredible shots of the exchange between Rep. AOC and RFK, Jr. at today’s congressional hearing.

They laughed at us because Americans were stupid enough to "vote" him back into office. Now they look at us with disgust and distrust.
Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.
Calling him an "idiot" is unfair to idiots. He should know better.
Laughable on its face. Not even true today as oil currently leads, but energy production from renewables is growing.|
In 2025: "Growth in solar PV met more than one-quarter of global primary energy demand growth,...the largest share of the growth in global energy demand."

If you attend the White House Correspondents Dinner this year, you should be legally barred from using the term "journalist" to describe yourself from that point on.
Fractures Emerge Between GOP’s Pro-Pedophilia, Extremely Pro-Pedophilia Wings
A "Little Free Library" filled with only Merriam-Webster Dictionaries
Happy National Library Week to whoever did this.
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.
Opinion in article: "Donald Trump’s presidency is a morality lesson. He is a living example of what happens when a man is given power that far exceeds his character. It is time for America to acknowledge the lesson and move on."

Tariff refunds will only benefit importers. It is unlikely consumers will see lower prices despite paying higher prices due to tariffs. There may be exceptions (e.g., Costco promise) but don't count on it.
Elizabeth Warren speaks the truth.
