*FORMER SEN. SHERROD BROWN TO RUN FOR SENATE IN 2026: PUNCHBOWL

yeah man Blanche Lincoln and Mary Landrieu and Tim Johnson and Ben Nelson were chomping at the bit to grant DC statehood, it was just the big bad DNC and Obama who wouldn't let it happen. that's right, big conspiracy.

people who were in elementary school in 2009 lecturing about the Obama era, man.

The major problem with Democratic Hispanic outreach since the Obama era has been approaching them strategically as a minority racial group, when they aren't one. They aren't a racial group. And they don't share the particular history of a minority racial group in the US. -OS

The media is self serving, just look at who the owners are.

Their interest isn't in maintaining good journalistic standards.

Spot on assessment!

The Redistricting Panic Is Justified Young voters, Hispanics, and independents are drifting away from the GOP and the maps might not save them

Democrats hold a comfortable lead among Hispanic voters in recent polling, but it's less because they've improved their 2024-margins, and more that the Republicans are collapsing with Hispanics

Trump: "This one chart really says it better than anything, if you look at this. This is great. But this chart is pretty amazing. Right here. All new numbers."

That's what I immediately thought of when I heard the news break.

This not good for the national unity of the United States.

Between this and the ICE raids, this administration seems committed to reviving the Fugitive Slave Act

I am aware of reports that threats were made against Texas elected officials in our state.

Threats of violence will be investigated and those responsible will be held accountable.

I have instructed @ilstatepolice.bsky.social to ensure we maintain public safety.

I've never seen a Southern Republican turn into a Democrat.

Usually it's the other way around.

Weird fetishization of the 90s as a time before alienation and the destruction of third spaces when the 90s were a high crime decade with high rates of suburbanization where people spent the money they made at their suburban office park jobs on Applebees.

NC Gov Cooper is up by 1 point in the NC Senate race in this new poll — with an R+8 party ID breakdown. For context it was probably like R+6 in 2024 (someone with the voter file can check that for me), and the turnout environment will favor Ds next year. So…. irp.cdn-website.com/07e08705/fil...

Both.

Republicans are really banking on the 2024 result in Texas being permanent. That map is 30-8 based on 2024 numbers. Its 24-14 based on 2018 results.

Fewer solid red seats.

Also suburban voters that were packed with more rural areas are likely to outvote them in midterm years.

My first impression of the Texas redraw map is that it could end up as a Dummymander in a tsunami election year.
