basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

yes I am a Spanberger-Mamdani democrat and we are the future

i wouldn't be a total glenn youngkin hater if i didn't mention that the results tonight mean that his total tenure amounted to presiding over the destruction — at least for the next few years — of the virginia republican party. lmao.

Bill Ackman gotta be on the third draft of a tweet longer than Middlemarch right now

Gentlemen: thank you for your service.

Head in hands wondering how this could happen to me, the popular president who posted a video of myself shitting on everyone 2 weeks ago

looks like democrats are about to flip two statewide elections with >20-point margins... in georgia

I'm a responsible, informed voter, so I googled the Jay Jones scandal on the way home from voting for him

JD Vance's half-brother has lost by an overwhelming margin as he tried to become the mayor of Cincinnati. Democratic incumbent Aftab Pureval wins reelection.

turns out the 51st Infantry of Fairfax Wine Moms wants to see people on the fucking wall

The GOP vile anti-trans campaign failed miserably. Earle-Sears made it her dominant issue - and lost hugely Should be duly noted by the punditry (but don't count on that)

how is this real

Cheney passed away peacefully and happily after fulfilling his life’s goal and voting for Zohran.

As you see Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and Stephen Miller all endorse Andrew Cuomo, just remember that Chuck Schumer — leader of the Democratic party — never ended up endorsing Cuomo's opponent (the Democratic nominee)

chat is it bad that the country is run by reptilians who look like this

Voting ops complete.

there was a time i never thought i could hate a politician more than i hated that guy. in retrospect, very naive of me

Dick Cheney won’t see your jokes, but your friends who orchestrated a destructive and illegal war based on lies and also shot a guy in the face will.

Dick Cheney’s legacy is that he turned 9/11 from a national tragedy into a global disaster. He did so through a mixture of arrogance, stupidity and greed and blighted the last quarter century.

America has a podcast gap

Foreign trade missions and the lobbyists and PR firms working for the Andurils of the world are single-handedly propping up the DMV's escort market right now

😭😭😭 this shit so embarrassing

Another big endorsement for Andrew Cuomo. And it only cost $959 million in tax breaks.

well it's dark out so that means it's time to go to bed at 6pm

The system improved hugely under Biden but getting a suppressor is needlessly complicated, long, and expensive despite it being a tool whose sole purpose is to reduce hearing damage It is probably the #1 thing I have heard gun owners complain about over the years

I don't think it's a good issue and I don't think Dems should waste time/capital on it, but (as a gun guy) if you really want to do gun regulation I promise you could get some common sense stuff passed in return for deregulating suppressors

-Sep 30: USDA releases guidance saying they can use contingency fund -Oct 10: USDA tells states to prepare for lapse -Oct 23: USDA deletes guidance saying they can use contingency fund -Oct 24: USDA says it can’t use contingency fund -Oct 31: Courts tell USDA to release funds -Nov 1: no funds go out

i don't throw around the word "hero" too often,

Grew up in Virginia, but haven't been following latest races besides Spanberger-Sears Holy based, the Jay Jones text messages are actually awesome, fuck a split ticket voter

Still some occasional bangers over on the everything app

No lethal kinetic strikes in this instance I guess, weird

The only reason JD Vance hasn't incited pogroms against his constituents is that the average American has less spirit of civic engagement than your average 19th century Russian peasant.

The most recent police report I've seen involving the National Guard was from Monday, when a sergeant from Alabama reported that a man "spit in her direction" and some of the spit landed on the sleeve of her uniform. The man was charged with a misdemeanor. The sergeant declined medical treatment.

i, for one, genuinely really like the democrat's strong tradition of labor liberalism, its pretty unique in both labor politics and liberalism and imo is part of its relative strength compared to a lot of other contemporary center left political movement

To be fair, this is extreme Marginal Voter behavior

Jonathan Greenblatt calling out Islamophobia for the first time ever but it’s because Saudi Arabia was insulted is so fucking funny

Well, the government has done what I thought was impossible: making me actively like rather than merely being indifferent to Kat Abughazaleh

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice. This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

ladies and germs, your liberal media

The position of Congressional Republicans, who threatened to do permanent damage to the economy by forcing a default if they didn’t get enough of their policy demands met, is that it’s unacceptable hostage taking for Democrats to insist that the budget not allow the president to institute cuts.

checking in on the nation's #1 TV news network, and just as you'd expect and hope, it's the president's daughter-in-law using her primetime show to interview the president's chief domestic adviser about how cool the president is and how bad his enemies are. love my free press

ordinary americans are filming ice agents and trying to save their neighbors. for all the hemming and hawing during 2024 about how democracy was an elite concern, the elites gave up far more quickly than average people.

Consider how few anecdotes it took for the media to declare a Free Speech on Campus crisis. Every day we get more evidence that the Republican Party is teeming with white supremacists yet elite institutions refuse to frame this as a crisis that needs the nation’s attention.

Extremely funny that INFOWARS has agreed not to publish anything without the explicit consent of the US government

can't help but laugh at him dunking on space force like this
