  1. It's interesting to me how the professional political knowers are surprised by the depth and breadth of the rejection of fascism. I think I saw it coming. I think a lot of people in the fediverse saw it coming.

    I don't know who first said it, but I guess the old line about people "not understanding things they get paid to not understand" is true to this day.

  6. "The #Republicans’ losing campaign in the Lone Star state was bankrolled by #ElonMusk, the richest man in the world...

    he now faces both a tax crunch on his Texas #business empire and potential federal investigations into his political activities. The Tesla founder’s extraordinary gamble – and extraordinary loss – may render his face the only red thing left in Austin." 🤣

  7. This Jon Stewart monologue sums up why I think it’s time for Senator Schumer to be step down as the Democratic Party leader. This whole show is great, but the criticism directed towards Schumer starts at 5 minutes.

    Summary: Schumer asked for restoration of ACA subsidies, but then settled for nothing.

  8. 2/ #AbdulElSayed - Former President Bill Clinton followed El-Sayed’s graduation speech and he started his presentation by heaping praise on the speech he had just heard. It’s pretty cool. Clinton revealed recently that he was so impressed he told the recent grad he should someday consider running for public office, and here we are almost 20 years later. Clinton tweeted his congrats, saying: “I guess you took my advice”. #USPol #USPolitics #Election2026 #Michigan

  9. It's election visualization time in King County, Washington! Based on election night data, all three statewide initiatives were trailing in King County; two of the three trailed statewide.

  13. Update from Kyle Clark this morning:

    “NEW: GOP Rep Lauren Boebert's path to a comeback win in #CO4 just got very difficult.

    Weld County Clerk Carly Koppes (R) tells me they're done counting #CO4 votes (minus cures + ballots coming from other counties). Far fewer CO4 votes than expected due to a significant undervote

    Barring undisclosed ballots remaining - Democrat Eileen Laubacher is in a strong position in #CO4 because the remaining ballots reported by clerks are in places she's led recent batches - even with weaker splits than Election Night returns: DougCo +3, Larimer +7, Arapahoe +13.

    Laubacher leads Boebert in #CO4 by 2,513 votes with pro-Boebert Weld County extinguished and the remaining uncounted ballots concentrated in counties Laubacher has carried. Laubacher's lead is nearly three times the automatic recount threshold.

    Too early to say definitively, but if a #CO4 undervote in Weld County is what does Boebert in, that tracks. Boebert consistently underperforms other Rs on the ballot. For instance, she's running 2 pts behind GOP US Senate candidate Mark Baisley in DougCo.”

  14. I know I don't have a full appreciation of how the political sausage gets made, but why wouldn't Massie just let the Hegseth impeachment stuff go, and wait until the next Congress?

    There's gotta be *some* procedural way of just not moving forward on it now…?

    I'm going to be real steamed if that trainwreck somehow dodges the most justified impeachment of the century, because it fizzled in the lame-duck session.

  15. 🧵 Raphael Warnock was exactly right.

    Democrats must never again listen to neoliberal fake savants who pretend to have expertise when in fact, they know little about political science or even causation.

    A savvy party never voluntarily tries to become a regional party.

  16. #elonmusk #voteblue #election2026 What is a “Musk Canary?” If it Nazi salutes, country getting more fascist. If deleting Tweets, country getting less fascist.

  17. Massachusetts Question 8 - Repeal recreational marijuana legalization?

    Voters voted: NO. 🚫

    Massachusetts Question 9 - Uphold 2024 Massachusetts gun control law?

    Voters voted: YES. ✅️

    Overall, my fellow citizens and I agreed on seven of the nine questions. But as for Questions 3 and 7, I don't know what you all were thinking.

    Open Primaries (Question 3): Voting "no" was a mistake. It protects major party control, keeps third parties out, and blocks ranked-choice voting — all because voters fell for MAGA and DNC propaganda.

    Housing (Question 7): Rejecting the 5,000 sq. ft. lot cap hurts affordability, tiny homes, job growth, and tax revenue. Most Massachusetts suburbs mandate 10,000 to 80,000+ sq. ft. (up to 2 acres), keeping housing scarce and expensive.

    I go more into detail in my previous two post (see post 1 of 3 and 2 of 3).

  18. Did you hear the news? Hugh Leask, Lee Ying Shan and Davis Giangiulio report that Democrats' midterm sweep sparked a massive market rally and oil plunge. The Dow Jones Industrial Average had its best day since April 2025, surging nearly 3% as Democrats secured decisive control of Congress, with oil prices dropping sharply. This post-election rotation away from overheated AI infrastructure names signals investors are seeking balance, potentially bringing welcome sanity to inflated expectations.

  19. The 2026 US midterm elections occur on November 3, involving all 435 seats in the House of Representatives and 35 of the 100 Senate seats.

    These elections serve as a gauge for the President's popularity and determine legislative control for the remainder of their term.

    Because ballot processing varies, final results may take several days or weeks.

  20. I have never followed American elections as closely as I do today—to the point that I am tracking them even more intently than the Americans themselves. There is one reason for this: the military support provided to Israel—particularly by the Republicans—and their repeated use of the veto to silence nations calling for an end to the genocide that has forced us to live in such dire conditions, confined to tents. I find myself searching for the election results, hoping for even the faintest glimmer of—a seed of hope so tiny it is barely visible to the naked eye. I am searching for a loaf of bread to satisfy my family’s hunger, for medicine to treat our sick, for a decision that might halt the daily bombardment, and for new tents to help us face the looming monster of the coming winter.
    The dreams we hope to realize through these elections are modest—much like the dreams of someone who has fallen into a deep abyss and, in this life, desires nothing more than to climb back out.

  23. "Hispanic residents represent the state’s largest demographic group. #Republicans had hoped that #Texas Latinos were becoming a durable part of the conservative coalition after #Trump won in Hispanic-majority districts across Texas. His success led Republicans to redraw congressional districts, assuming that Hispanic support would continue.

    Instead, #Democrats won Hispanic voters by 42 points on Tuesday."

  24. And in Texas, look at that.👀

    Texas skipped past purple and turned blue!

    "It wasn’t just that James Talarico won the U.S. Senate race or that Gina Hinojosa defeated Greg Abbott, the three-term governor. Up and down the ballot, Democrats swept Texas, winning all of the top statewide offices. They also flipped the Texas House of Representatives."
