NEW: Democrats win another special election by a LOT. Harris won here by 1% in 2024.

🚨BREAKING: On behalf of Equal Ground Education Fund and Florida voters, my law firm has sued to block Florida's new illegal and unconstitutional congressional map. www.democracydocket.com/cases/florid...

NEWS --> Dem can redraw anywhere from 10 to 22 additional House seats for the party in time for the 2028 elections if they aggressively redistrict in 7 key states, a new Fair Fight Action analysis finds. This would neutralize GOP's post-SCOTUS advantage. New piece: newrepublic.com/article/2098...

Our current economy is rigged. It just is. A new report shows that 88 of the largest companies in America, including: Amazon Citigroup Haliburton Kohl's Palantir PayPal PG&E Southwest Airlines Tesla United Airlines Disney paid ZERO corporate income tax last year.

🚨BREAKING: A Michigan court Thursday handed voters a major win — rejecting a Republican lawsuit that sought to disenfranchise U.S. citizens living abroad. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Oh thank god the fake achievement lasted long enough for this corrupt & incompetent administration to make lots of money by manipulating the stock market, and long enough to brag about it, which for this administration is the same or better than actually accomplishing it.

Iran Deal By Obama: •Strait of Hormuz open for free •Iran limits Uranium enrichment •Iran agrees to make no nuclear weapons •Iran allows Int'l inspectors to ensure compliance •Inspectors confirm Iran's full compliance NOW?

Trump lost this war in every possible sense — morally, legally, politically, economically, reputationally, and strategically.

So - basically - Iran maintains its enriched uranium, its regime is still in power, it controls the Strait of Hormuz and can charge tolls, still has terrorist proxies, Lebanon not even mentioned, sanctions are lifted, many billions lost, many deaths, pissed off allies, and Trump declares victory.

23 people could stop this genocidal war criminal. That’s it. 23. 20 Republican senators and 3 republican reps in the house and he’d be out of politics forever. But they won’t. They’re addicted to power. A drug so strong they’d rather see a civilization die than give it up.

This is a far simpler answer than people would like to believe. Trump issues the order via the National Military Command Center to the commander of Strategic Command, and then STRATCOM carries it out directly. There is no second vote, no veto, no check-and-balance.

Jim Lovell was the motivational speaker for a company I worked for years ago and I was lucky enough to be seated next to him at a dinner. Just a delightful man. Hearing that recording he made for the Artemis II crew has me all nostalgic. 🌒💜

Republicans want to make it harder to vote. Democrats want to make it easier to vote. #RememberInNovember

Mon retour sur LCI ce soir 21:45-23:00. 📺

Rachel propose tjrs une excellente analyse.

Honestly Iran. Just agree to license "Trump Oil" from him for $1 billion a year to be produced at the Kharg Island Trump Oil Refinery, Hotel, and Golf Resort

Trump wants $1.5 trillion in military spending, an increase of $445 billion. Know what else we could do with that money? Cover school lunch for 30M kids for their entire K-12 education. Pay for a year of health care for 55.8M Americans. Fund a year of child care for 32M kids.

Hey, Pam.

This chart, from YouGov, shows non-MAGA Republicans (about half of the party) moving 50 points, from +25 to -23, against Trump’s war in Iran over the last month. I wrote two weeks ago why this was the group to watch: www.gelliottmorris.com/p/forget-the...

Meet @leelagray.bsky.social the retired Brigadier General running to unseat Ana Paulina Luna, a MAGA crazy who organized a guided tour for Russian Duma members to Washington last week (as Russia was helping Iran target US bases in the Middle East). Let get her some followers and support. 🇺🇸

Jeudi 2/4 vers 6:10 je vais commenter le discours de Donald sur FrInfo radio. Rediffusions plus tard si vous n’êtes pas levé/e à cette heure 😵‍💫

Thanks to Trump's Big, Beautiful Bill, big corporations paid $65 BILLION LESS in federal taxes last year. For reference, $65 BILLION could pay for over 2 years of ACA tax credit extensions. They literally cut healthcare to give mega-corps like Amazon & Meta a tax cut.

About Trump's mail-in voting executive order.... here's the reaction from election security expert David Becker: "It's hilarious.... He might as well sign an executive order banning gravity." Becker says the order won't work MORE: open.substack.com/pub/macfarla...

I was interviewed by the Associated Press at the Paris #Nokings rally and I’m in the video that accompanies this article. apnews.com/article/no-k...

The Republican-controlled Senate passed a bill to fund TSA without funding ICE, and the Republican-controlled House rejected the measure to fund TSA without funding ICE, so the Republican President just signed an executive order to fund TSA without funding ICE. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

🚨🧵So Much Winning: Republicans are losing in safe red districts. What does that mean for November? Democrats are flipping deep red districts — places Donald Trump carried by double digits with majority Republican electorates. Here's what it means for the midterms👇 open.substack.com/pub/thecycle...

Yesterday, Trump described a call with a “Sharpie guy” to produce $5 customized markers with gold White House branding and his signature. Sharpie later said no such exchange occurred. Trump contrasted the markers with “$1,000 pens,” and ended by saying: “we have a moron at the Fed.”

kind of amazing that everything trump does can be understood through the lens of narcissism and it's related needs (e.g., self aggrandizement, revenge, domination, grievance validation). i don't think any character has been so one-dimensional, not even wile e coyote or scrooge mcduck

During the 2024 campaign Trump said he had a secret plan to end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours but he couldn’t tell anyone what it was. Now he has a secret plan to end his Iran War by Friday but nobody, including his own staff, seems to know what it is. I’m sure it’s legit tho.

Is it happening again?

Strange situation where we await a statement from Iran to check whether there's any truth to what US president is saying.

Why Trump can’t cancel the 2026 midterms, and why election experts say that fear distracts from the real risk www.aol.com/articles/why...

This is the quintessence of narcissistic sociopathy. And just plain stupidity. From @anneapplebaum.bsky.social:

The Heritage Foundation has released a 250-year roadmap to “save America.” The document is a how-to guide for subjugating girls & young women: a detailed plan to push them out of college, funnel them into early marriage and motherhood, and then trap them there. jessica.substack.com/p/theyre-com...

Voici le résumé de la stratégie média de Donald.

Pro tip for the media including @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social: It’s the Strait of Hormuz. Not the Straits. There is only one.

Words come from his mouth every day. They seldom are true. Or make sense. But they keep coming - unending, Olympian levels of bullshit.

The genius businessman strikes again

We are governed by the stupidest people. It did not occur to them that attacking the place oil comes from would affect the availability of oil? Oy vey.

The clock is running out on Florida's legislative session, and Republicans have nothing to show for it. No budget, no solution for the affordability crisis, just meaningless culture wars and attacks on our rights.

I’ll give you one guess where this money went. wapo.st/4cCLOZQ

What’s going on with voting rights? Can Trump really take over elections from the states? What is the SAVE Act? Chad is here during Civics Week to explain it all! #democratsabroad #votefromabroad #civicsweek #votingrights #elections

Trump: “Based on what Jared Kushner told me, I thought Iran would attack us.” Not his intelligence agencies. His fucking son-in-law.
