Aftyn Behn is going to fall a little short here but the shift from 2024 in today's election in central Tennessee is looking like ~15 or so points to the left.

The big surprise to me is total turnout, specials normally are very low turnout but this may have more voters than the '22 midterm in TN-07

!

I am absolutely seeing this in real time. I get at least 3 emails a day from people I know and people I don't asking me if I have leads on work. I usually have to say I do not. The job market is NOT GOOD right now at all.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

Please do submit a comment if you live in Illinois. This is a practice that causes active harm to inmates, separates them even more from external support systems, and even makes it harder for U.S. attorneys to communicate with incarcerated clients

yeah, we know. when are you going to use your remaining time in the senate and your senate votes to protect us?

A student wrote me to say she will be late for class due to subway issues and my two suggested replies from google were ”so cute!” And “yum!” This is definitely a technology we want to rest our entire economy on.
