There were 13 elections last night for a statewide office.

Democrats swept all 13.

That’s 1 in NJ. 3 in VA. 2 in GA. And 7 in PA (all judges, retention and regular).

They won 12 of the 13 races by double-digits, with margins up to 24%. The only other race, the tightest, they won by 6%.

Excessive force. PERIOD!

They called them β€œviolent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.

πŸ“Œ Keep sharing videos, everyone, because they’re evidence.

The oligarchy came out in full force against Zohran Mamdani's fight for a more affordable NYC.

It didn't matter.

Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.

Trump Says He’ll Defy Court Order And Won’t Give Out SNAP Benefits The president appears to want to ignore a court order to pay the benefits.

In a shocking reversal, Trump said federal food benefits won’t be distributed during the shutdown, despite a court order

Open defiance of a court order + dissolution of the House = dictatorship.

Dictators don't get voted out.

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

This is the President openly announcing that he will violate court orders - two courts had concluded that the Trump regime withholding SNAP funding was illegal - and that the government had to pay out (at least reduced) SNAP benefits starting this week

The president of the United States thinks asylum-seekers come from mental asylums.

He says it in almost every interview where the topic of migration comes up.

How is this not 25th Amendment territory? How is he not an embarrassment to this entire country?

$5M in Shein stock is crazy. to put it in perspective, a child would have to work three billion hours in a Shein factory to earn a 1/10000th of this

I would like for national political reporters to place a moratorium on β€œBut what will voters in the rest of America think about New York City’s socialist mayor?” We don’t care! Red states are notably full of psycho politicians yet rarely do you see pundits asking Brooklyn people about them.

Trump has made it clear time and again that the DOJ operates at his discretion

If you’re a perceived enemy, you’re a target. Damn the law. Damn the evidence.

This is not how democracy is supposed to function

The FBI forced out a senior official overseeing aviation shortly after Director Kash Patel grew outraged about revelations of his publicly-available jet logs indicating he’d flown to see his musician girlfriend perform, said three people familiar with the situation.

Steven Palmer, a 27-year veteran of the FBI, became the third head of the critical incident response groupβ€”which includes FBI pilotsβ€”to be fired or removed in Patel’s short regime, adding to a year filled with retributive terminations.
