Major win in Arlington County Public Schools, with pro-trans Moe Bryant dominating the election. Arlington County Public Schools has made headlines for defying the Trump admin on trans kids in bathrooms.

More people voted in New York City’s election this year than they have in 50 years. That’s a win for democracy, and a testament to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's inspiring campaign. Congratulations to the next mayor of the greatest city in the world. 🗽

CONFIRMED: Georgia Democrats have won their first statewide elections for non-federal offices since *2006.* The two Dem challengers, Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard, have ousted two GOP Republican commissioners on the state's utility commission.

I feel like this is an important aspect to emphasize, loudly, to everyone who endorsed Cuomo. they chose to side with a known sexual predator for personal gain and frankly that should be disqualifying for public office. you knew who he was and decided the women he hurt were acceptable losses

The factional grifters will hate this, but the Mamdani-Spanberger-Sherrill axis actually suggests the outlines of a broad, emerging Dem coalition organized around both anti-Trump *and* affordability politics, not a party bitterly divided against itself.

Huge night for voting rights so far: -Dems retain majority on PA Supreme Court -Dems win VA gov & increase majority in VA leg increasing chances of new US House map -Maine voters reject ballot initiative to require voter ID & restrict absentee voting -KS Republicans drop gerrymandering push

Statement from the FBI Agents Association after Director Kash Patel fired, unfired then re-fired several agents who had worked on cases targeting Trump and allies. Complete shambles.

This is a classic form of voter intimidation—making people feel like it’s not safe to go to the polls. It moments like this where we need to summon our courage & vote anyhow. Vote in the tradition of the people who marched in Selma to secure the right to vote.

Most important thing I will do today!

Senate Democrats about to roll over. Goddamnit.

When I read the full transcript of the interview, I realized there had been no pushback, no corrections, no challenging follow-ups. The entire interview had been an open-ended opportunity for Trump to tell rambling lies, only to have them cleaned up into a more polished product.

NIGHTS OF BLUE SKIES 🧵1 DAY 3 NOVEMBER 2025 🚨 ELECTION EVE 🚨 Tomorrow VOTE BLUE Vote in such large numbers To let Trump & Republicans know ENOUGH SO IMPORTANT 🚨CALIFORNIA WE ARE COUNTING ON YOU VOTE YES ON PROP 50 !!🚨 VOTE Spanberger VA Sherrill NJ Mandami NYC SCOTUS in PA

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day. certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Today is Day 34 of the Republican shutdown. Your regular reminders: 1. Republicans control the White House, Senate and House. 2. GOP making deep cuts to Medicaid, Medicare and ACA. 3. Democrats are fighting to lower costs, cancel the cuts and save healthcare for Americans.

Speaker Mike Johnson vs Sergeant Schultz from Hogan's Heroes -- who knows less about what's going on?

I saw a Cuomo ad last night that was basically "if there's another 9/11, we need a mayor with experience like Andrew Cuomo," and it made me wonder, wait, what was Andrew Cuomo doing on 9/11? Well, he was probably preoccupied with damage control for this: nypost.com/2001/09/10/p...

“every time theres a republican president the economy collapses” feels like pretty easy messaging on the economy

This would be GREAT for housing affordability. Zohran keeping his promises.

Trump did on 60 Minutes what he does every time. He spews a blizzard of lies, exaggerations and assorted other falsehoods, and if (as usual) the reporter isn’t equipped or doesn’t bother to push back, he keeps going. Here is a detailed list, via @mehdirhasan.bsky.social zeteo.com/p/factchecki...

Wait, did they edit an interview? Did they not air every second? I heard that’s grounds for a multimillion lawsuit

I tuned in to the @60minutes Trump interview with low expectations, and I haven’t bern surprised. Norah let Trump lie and lie with barely any pushback or provision of corrective facts. Where is the Aussie guy from @axios when we need him?

Dogs sure don’t understand daylight saving time.

Now that open enrollment has begun, families across California are on CoveredCA.com looking for affordable coverage. They won’t find it. Republicans let ACA subsidies expire—deliberately driving up premiums and forcing working families to go without coverage.

“I’m a law-abiding citizen who never thought I’d be of such interest that the U.S. government would use my tax dollars & yours to try to send me to prison…[after being] manhandled by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent trying to remove my phone from my hand.” www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Actually, all U.S. forces were harmed in this strike.

At a time when our politics feels broken, we need leaders like @mikiesherrill.bsky.social for Governor. Mikie will work to create jobs, lower costs, and do what’s right for the people of New Jersey.

how is it not even 10 am yet i hate this shit

Married her yesterday.

“Would Americans be so accepting if, instead of observing the detached remoteness of a missile from the clouds, we watched our servicemen board the vessels and simply execute everyone on board without asking a single question? It is, in every way, the same thing.”

This makes me absolutely incandescent

Chuck Schumer has refused to endorse Zohran Mamdani, and now refuses to even say he’ll vote for him as Mayor. Just a breathtaking new level of cowardice. Won’t someone please primary this spineless failure of a leader?

Trump and Republicans are illegally withholding SNAP benefits. Millions of children could go hungry. And this guy is shamefully playing golf.

Utah. Mother of 4. Here since 2007.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.

Here’s a disturbing video from Evanston of a federal agent hitting a man on the ground as people yell that he can’t breathe.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court permanently BLOCKS the administration from implementing part of Executive Order requiring documentary proof of citizenship on the federal voter registration application. A BIG VICTORY for our clients--DNC, DGA, DSCC, DCCC, Sen Schumer and Leader Jeffries--and all voters!

🚨BREAKING: Democrats won a major legal victory Friday as a federal district court permanently enjoined the U.S. Election Assistance Commission from implementing the provision in Donald Trump’s executive order demanding a proof-of-citizenship requirement on the federal voter registration form.

It's 2025 and my law firm is still beating Trump's voter suppression in court. We fight hard and we usually win.

🚨BREAKING: A top federal voting official is facing a call to step down after accusing Democrats of encouraging “open borders” and widespread voting by “illegal citizens,” because “they need the votes.” www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

🚨BREAKING: 2 fed courts have issued orders blocking Trump’s attempt to defund SNAP. Congrats to @democracyforward.org, its co counsel and clients, and Dem State AGs.

This is in the last 24 hours. The fact that this is not all over cable news shows you how our legacy media has become a state run media.

This is fucking amazing

Can't overstate how fucked up it is that unraveling what is arguably the greatest achievement in the history of humanity is now a motivating issue of one of the two dominant parties in the U.S.

I hate these people

The President of the United States is so upset about his failed campaign for a Nobel Prize that he's now trying to claim someone else's prize as his own. Pathetic.

California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50. California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections. Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

Patel attacked Wray for using a government jet, saying it should be "grounded." It carries no weight with them. He probably doesn't even remember saying it. These people just say shit they think are cudgels against people they do not like. It's not a statement of principle. They have none.

Maryland House Speaker Adrienne Jones throws some light shade at her counterpart in the state Senate, Bill Ferguson, after he ruled out a new congressional map. But Jones and Gov. Wes Moore could put a lot more pressure, including by introducing/supporting a bill for a remap.
