BREAKING: Democrats just broke the GOP supermajority in the Mississippi Senate!

In a stunning victory, Democrats gained seats in court-ordered special elections and will now head to Jackson to represent and fight on behalf of their constituents.

Trump tries to build a fake wall of inevitability around everything he does.

Today, voters - literally from sea to shining sea - broke through all that, and this is just the beginning.

I'd forgotten what it was like to lay down to sleep on election night with a feeling of optimism.

happy bday poet Sylvia Plath, b.1932, Boston.

“I took a deep breath and listened to the old brag of my heart. I am, I am, I am.”
