I ain't listening to all that. Happy for you. Or sorry that happened. Maybe don't block someone from a judge. Or maybe don't say "pick another protein" next time.
Thank you, Mississippi.

Fuck it, land does vote
If Peltola holds on in Alaska, D-held Senate delegations will actually occupy more territory (in square miles) than R ones. About 34% D, 30% R, 36% split. Before the election it was 63% R, 33% D, 4% split.

The key to solving racism is apparently saying "imagine no burger"
VoteHub projects Scott Colom to win the Mississippi U.S. Senate election.

PICK ANOTHER SENATOR INSTEAD!!!!!!
Scott Colom will defeat Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith in a major upset to become the first Democrat that voters in deep-red Mississippi have elected to the chamber in more than four decades, CNN projects. cnn.it/4iEnxUo

Classic 1 for 1 change of scenery type trade. Good Senate trade
How did they get off Fetterman's contract that easily

Oh, they are giving the Dems a supermajority in 2028. Interesting strategy
🚨🚨 JIM JORDAN is the next House minority leader

Omar should be fired
Blockbuster! The Raiders are trading four-time Pro Bowl QB Kirk Cousins to the Vikings for their 2027 third-round pick, sources tell @ringer @netflixsports. Cousins returns to Minnesota for the playoff push, while Las Vegas turns to No. 1 pick Fernando Mendoza.

NGL, Rutgers could save money on HC and get the same results
Sources: Rutgers coach Greg Schiano will return to coach the Scarlet Knights in 2027. It will be his 19th season as head coach at the school, which have come over two stints. Rutgers is 2-7 and amid back-to-back losing seasons. Schiano has the most wins (101) in school history.

Mason Rudolph is the obvious choice here. Like, this is the easiest day 3 pick Omar could ever get. Like pick up the phone
Developing: The Vikings have begun making calls around the league about trading for a quarterback ahead of today’s 4 pm ET deadline, per @rapsheet and me.

Chargers vs Ravens next week? A lot of people are about to realize both these teams suck

Normally, arm punts are worth the risk. But you gotta know where you are at on the field. 3 points were right there Josh

I'm pretty sure lesson 1 of spy school is not telling anyone you are a spy. I heard spy school gets really good starting at lesson 2.
Trump, responding to @SkylarWoodhouse, says he spoke to Jensen Huang *today.* "He said he had absolutely no idea that the person in question was a spy. I asked him the question. `Did you have any idea that she was a spy?' He said I had no idea that she was a spy," Trump says.

No matter what information I learn about Colom, I will only remember "pick another senator"
Pick another protein? Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit I'd rather pick another senator instead!

Weird comment from the circus leader
Speaker Mike Johnson on Republicans losing the majority: “Sorry that voters made the wrong choice. I really do believe these next two years is gonna be a bit of circus, it’s going to be chaos and I hate to say that, but I think that’s where the Democrats are going to lead the House.” W/ @LuisaClausen

Lol
CNN: Eileen Laubacher (D) wins Colorado’s 4th congressional district, defeating Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO). 🟦Democratic flip
