Everyone keeps talking about the impossible math to winning leadership races.
But it’s possible the floodgates open if someone has the courage to step up.
NEW: Sen. Chris Van Hollen is now open to a run against Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer
Van Hollen has "received an outpouring of calls and is now in active listening mode," according to a person familiar w/ his thinking around leadership
"The door is not shut," the person added
Van Hollen is a leading progressive & has said he needs commitments from Schumer before agreeing to support him for another term as leader. The Maryland Democrat has also been eyeing a presidential run

Thank you for your attention to the matter of my house.

Lorenzo Salgado was murdered by ICE 4 months ago today.
Texans have been adding their “I voted” stickers to his memorial in Houston.
I just added mine.

In his first public appearance since winning the election, @JamesTalarico adds his “I voted” sticker to Lorenzo Salgado’s memorial in Houston.

NOT ENOUGH. CALL MORE. NO SCHUMER, NO JEFFRIES.
NEW: House Dems "inundated" w/ calls & emails urging them not to elect Jeffries speaker
One member told @axios they got "300-400" calls in 2 days
Another said "over 500"
A third said "higher" than 500: "It's our No. 1 issue, and it's not close." axios.com/2026/11/06/jeffrie…

Texas Republicans’ response to a historic ass whooping is to subvert the will of Texas voters to protect the status quo.
Texans shouldn’t stand for this bullshit.
🚨 DEVELOPING — Texas Senate Republicans will reportedly meet this afternoon to discuss stripping the newly elected Democratic lieutenant governor of legislative powers and electing a Senate majority leader, per @quorumreport.

Let’s get this out of the way. Trump doesn’t get another Supreme Court seat if anyone retires or dies. The Mitch McConnell rule applies. We’re always in an election year. Cope.

NOPE.
AIPAC puppets should be rejected in leadership roles and voted out eventually. Period.
Put some respect on the name of our soon to be Speaker @RepJeffries !!!! He put in the work y’all!!!

Blue wave? 🌊 Nope. Blue tsunami.
Democrats had a historic night in Texas, winning several major statewide races.
Gina Hinojosa defeated Gov. Greg Abbott, becoming Texas’ first Latina governor and the first Democrat to hold the office since Ann Richards.
James Talarico won the U.S. Senate race against Ken Paxton.
Vikki Goodwin declared victory over Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, Sarah Eckhardt declared victory over Comptroller Don Huffines, and Nathan Johnson claimed victory in the attorney general’s race against Mayes Middleton.
Johnson will be the first Democrat elected Texas attorney general since 1994. Together, these results mark an extraordinary shift in Texas politics after decades without a Democratic statewide win.

Haley Stevens has chosen to dangerously betray Michigan families’ healthcare, freedoms and future with her horrific endorsement of Mike Rogers.
@AbdulElSayed must win — because Michigan and our country deserve better. -NP
