Supreme Court upholds Texas congressional map, a win for Trump administration The court ruled in favor of the map, which could flip five Democratically held seats in Congress to Republican control.

Texas can use its newly-drawn congressional map in next year’s elections, the US Supreme Court rules, reversing a lower court ruling and dealing a victory to President Trump’s hopes of keeping control of Congress in the midterm elections. www.dallasnews.com/news/politic...

Naturally, but the GOP and their MAGA fluffers on social media will have nothing to say about this, and Mike Johnson will pretend not to see this story until 2029.

“I Don’t Feel Safe”: Black Memphis Residents Report Harassment by Trump’s Police Task Force A pastor was pulled over for looking lost. A 72-year-old was marched out in his bathrobe due to mistaken identity. Memphis’ mayor welcomed the federal law enforcement surge, but some residents say the...

“I really believe that if I didn’t have [my] birth certificate, I would be somewhere in a facility,” one resident said, recalling that one of the armed federal agents who stopped him on the street aggressively asked if he was from Ethiopia or Ghana.

Gyda Oddekalv har lansert demokratiapp: – Hvor mye kontrollerer hun egentlig? Gyda Oddekalv håper appen kan øke samfunnsdeltakelsen, men demokratiforsker tviler på at den vil bli bredt tatt i bruk.

Jeg kommer i alle fall ikke til å ta i bruk denne appen. Jeg foretrekker å ytre meg på BlueSky, på min blogg og i andre kanaler, fremfor å bruke en app for meningsløse avstemminger. www.nrk.no/vestland/gyd...

Tesla’s China-Built LG Batteries Are 'Catastrophic,' Repair Shop Claims A Croatian repair shop claimed that Tesla’s Chinese-made LG batteries degrade much faster than those made in Europe or the U.S.

Tennessee House Special Election 2025: What to Watch A special election for a House seat in Tennessee was supposed to be an easy Republican victory. But national spending and Democratic enthusiasm have made it an unusually high-profile race.

Voters in Tennessee are set to provide this year’s final big sign of where the political environment stands in the state's special House election, as President Trump’s approval ratings slip and Democrats grow more hopeful heading into the 2026 midterm elections. Here are five things to know.

FIFAs sikkerhetssjef stusset da VM-avgjørelsen falt: - Russland visste resultatet på forhånd Vladimir Putin holdt seg unna avstemningen da Russland fikk fotball-VM i 2018. Han var sikker på seier.

Sant. Ellers er Stoltenberg-regjeringen den eneste som reduserte CO2-avgiften (2000).
Den gang pga protester fra lastebilnæringen…

Litt festleg historisk symmetri viss Høgre måtte gå i 1986 fordi dei ville auka bensinavgifta, og Ap må gå i 2025 fordi dei vil senka bensinavgifta.

Budsjettforliket ga dobbel seier til Senterpartiet Senterpartiet og Trygve Slagsvold Vedum får det som han vil – både når det gjelder oljepolitikken og avgiftene på diesel, bensin og kunstgjødsel. Det er lett å forstå SV og MDGs misnøye – og underlig ...

Den økningen er nulla ut med bl.a. redusert veibruksavgift.
Det ble visst dobbeltseier til SP…

Cartoon- We give thanks to Trump for what we are about to eat (cost of Tariffs)

Absolutely nothing indicates putin wants peace. Absolutely everything indicates he prefers continued confrontation.

Which is why russia must be decisively deterred, its economy choked, its leaders held accountable.

Land grabs, aggression and war crimes must never pay off.

Samuel Huntington Is Getting His Revenge The idea of a global “clash of civilizations” wasn’t wrong—it was just premature.

Amid the liberal internationalist optimism of the late 1990s, Samuel Huntington foresaw a world marked by continued conflict.

I spent a lot of time in 2024 arguing voting for Harris would reduce the most harm.

Not voting for Harris was a mistake, but it wasn't the only mistake.

Our interest should not be in assigning blame, only learning from every mistake that we can. So that in 2026 and 2028 we defeat the fascists.
