"Yesterday showed us what a wave election looks like. And what was the best predictor of the vote, and the source of the wave? Donald Trump. Take a look at the correlation of his approval rating in the exit polls and the actual vote. This bodes well for 2026."

It was the blowout Republicans feared, and Democrats desperately needed. A coast-to-coast repudiation of Donald Trump and all his works.

Netflix has renamed this “Death by Lightning” and drops its 4-part adaptation tomorrow. It’s b/o Candice Millard’s 2011 “Destiny of the Republic,” the best history book I covered in nearly 20 years as a daily NYT book critic. Her title was better. Can’t wait.

I’ve never seen Axios and Punchbowl take something so hard. They were pumping the Dem cave and now it’s all in ruins. Tuesday night is like their 9/11 it seems like.

The House Oversight Committee has issued a 93-page report on Biden’s use of the autopen, a fairly standard practice among U.S. presidents, and called on the DOJ to investigate.

This is the longest full shutdown in U.S. history, and this is what House Republicans are up to. trib.al/OGVwGsH

Thanks for the autocorrect. I’m aware.

I work there so I know that a lot has happened since that May 12 article. Blanche is not acting.

clintonharrisgal.bsky.social @clintonharrisgal.bsky.social · 10d

But Hayden hasn’t been replaced by Blanche. Robert Newman is acting. Congress should be prepared to fight for their own branch.

JUST IN at SCOTUS: another Trump administration emergency plea, this one to secure the removal of the Register of Copyrights by the acting Librarian of Congress (Trump fired the previous Librarian of Congress in May)

Trump: AOC is low IQ. If you give her an IQ test, have her pass like the exams that I decided to take when I was at Walter Reed. Those are very hard…
