Remember the time Obama personally caught a fainting woman during his speech — rather than just blankly staring like a sociopath?

Character isn't something you tell people about.

It's something you live.

incredible photo that's definitely worth at least 1,000 words from Andrew Harnik of Getty

I don’t know what’s got into her lately, but she’s not spewing crazy stuff all the time anymore.

Nancy Pelosi announces retirement after decades in US Congress Pelosi made history as the first female Speaker and left an indelible mark on US politics.

Thank you Speaker Emeritus Pelosi for your dedication to this country and your service in Congress. Though I haven’t agreed with you on everything, your leadership helped during Trump’s two impeachment trials.

Thank you for doing the right thing and stepping aside for a younger generation 🇺🇸

Blowout.

Maybe the GOP should reopen govt now

Atticus, let’s roll my friend. For democracy, for America 🇺🇸.

I think the best thing any politician can be is real. Be yourself. Don’t listen to the consultants so much.

Maybe this is one lesson to take away from Trump’s success (yes I just threw up a little typing that)

Going into ‘26 and ‘28 find authentic pro democracy candidates and run them.

Perhaps the one silver lining of 2024 was that Atlanta’s suburbs shifted left. If Dems can win statewide elections by >20 points, this is very welcome news for Ossoff.

Really big. This bodes well for 2026!

Let’s keep fighting and be ready for next years crucial midterms. 🇺🇸

To all the doomers and gloomers, those who have given in to an ineluctable cynicism - you’re wrong. Democracy still matters. Voting matters. Organizing matters. Speaking out matters. America is still the greatest country because we the people have the power to chart our own course. May we never quit

Thoughts???

What we know so far, 8:30pm

—Democrats flip VA-Gov & VA-LG.
—Also means Dems take VA trifecta.
—Dems in good shape to win NJ-Gov.
—Dems appear to flip 2 statewide offices in Georgia.
—JD Vance's half-brother loses in Cincinnati.
—Last GOPer in Orlando council gone.
—PA: Dem justices up big so far.

Wow. If this holds into next years midterms, look out GOP.

She’ll be a fantastic Governor. Congrats Virginia!

Patriot. 🇺🇸 😢

Dick Cheney, the influential GOP vice president to George W. Bush and chief architect of the "war on terror," has died. He was 84.

I know Dick Cheney was a very controversial Vice President.

I also know that Cheney has stood up to Trump along with Liz and voted for Harris last year.

RIP Vice President Cheney

The pollsters who correctly predicted Trump’s win,

Mamdani probably has a good chance tomorrow night.

And I thought our drought in Texas was really bad.

I also wanted the Bears to lose. Y’all did us a favor and kept us #1 in the NFC North though. I don’t think it’ll be for long, to win the North will be a gauntlet between all four teams.

I’ve been a LaFleur defender for a while now, but after these performances against teams we should’ve beaten and the conservative play calling I think it’s time to have that conversation about moving on on the offseason,
