In today's evidence that the mainstream media in this country needs to be burned to the ground.....
Over many interviews, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Michael Scherer about how he plans to remake America’s public-health system. Can he lead the scientific establishment he’s spent much of his life crusading against?

This is just an incredibly unserious post. I don't know how to say this more clearly:
Kamala did not have the election stolen from her. She did not lose because of voter suppression.
And if you think these things, legitimately I hope someone in your life gets you the professional help you need.

I cannot stress how big of a deal this special election in TN-07 just became...
The TX-18 seat will be filled by a Dem in a run-off (between 2 Dems) on 1/31/26. The special election in TX-7 is 12/2/25. The special in NJ-11 is 4/16/26. If both NJ-11 (likely) and TX-7 (stretch) go Dem, then in April the chamber will be 218-216 until MTG's seat is filled

So here’s an interesting twist. I wonder if SCOTUS sort of paints themselves in the corner by saying it’s too close to the election in Texas and a potential VRA ruling….

NEW: The Texas redistricting case has officially reached SCOTUS. State leaders say the justices should restore their Republican-friendly gerrymander because it's too close to the election to revert back to the old boundaries.

I gotta tell you, I'm not really in the 'eat the rich' camp but man, this last year has really, really made me rethink that....
We spent a year investigating billionaires for @washingtonpost.com.
We found: the wealthiest 100 Americans gave $1.1 billion to influence the 2024 elections — 140x more than they did in 2000. And almost all of that giving boosted Republicans.

One of my largest pet peeves is accounts that get mad when Trump’s approval is above zero. The ones that scream “OMG!! Who still supports him!?”
Like y’all if you haven’t accepted that like 35% of this country will literally support him no matter what, do yourself a favor & process that!

It pains me to say what I’ve said now for awhile…
The majority of the press, specifically the people who own & run them, are the enemy of the people.
And the next administration is very likely going to have to do something drastic to fix it.

I think the thing many on here would be wise to sort of 'process' is, while I think it's very possible Newsom is not the nominee, it won't be for the reasons many of you think.
Some of his more Bluesky-unpopular takes are actually pretty close to where the average voter is currently.
