that’s not the message, the suburban moms want blood
Tonight, the American people sent a clear message — they want a politics that brings people together rather than divides them, and leaders who offer concrete solutions to the challenges they face.
These results were only possible because outstanding candidates stepped forward in every region of the country — including in areas once considered long shots. They came from different backgrounds and represented a range of political perspectives, but were united by shared values, a belief in public service, and a commitment to putting the people of their districts and states first.
We also owe a debt of gratitude to the thousands of election officials and volunteers from both parties who helped ensure a smooth election and carried out one of the most essential functions of our democracy.
While this administration has another two years in office, our job now is to roll up our sleeves, make changes wherever we have the power to do so, prevent further damage, and lay the groundwork for the future.

Hats off to Justin J Pearson, who turned a gerrymandered Republican +21 district into a +1 district by running on left wing populism and standing unequivocally with trans people. And a screw you to every national centrist Dem that sat on the sidelines and wrote off the south.

If the @TheDemocrats don’t remove @RepJeffries and @SenSchumer from their leadership positions (and from our screens) within the next 24 hours, they’re going to fumble more political capital and momentum than has ever been fumbled before.

The question on university campuses should now be how to get rid of all the administrators who caved to and collaborated with a grossly unpopular political agenda, including curricular changes, reversals on diversity mandates, buying into AI hype, clamping down on Gaza protests…

To be clear, even if the mother or her friend stole something, Mississippi does not have capital punishment for theft.
