If we see a 13 point swing in South Carolina in Nov 2026 Lindsey Graham will be retired and I will be the first ever pediatrician Senator.

Tonight, we did something everyone counted out. We proved to a nation that states like Tennessee are still worth fighting for. The margin was close, and that can only be attributed to the thousands of volunteers who showed out. This is just the beginning.

2022 the crooked TN state broke the Nashville vote into 3 newly-drawn districts. So now all with ruby-red rural votes pulled in to make the heavily blue Nashville votes no longer count. Nashville lost their Dem representation. Terrible gerrymandering, & became GOP’s playbook.
All they do is cheat.

Help me understand (seriously). So the Republican Party has destroyed everything it’s touched and benefited the richest (and themselves) only and yet the good ol folk of Tennessee thought yep.. I’m a voting Republican.

TN07 is a story about gerrymandering: the GOP cracked Nashville into 3 districts when it redrew the 2022 map, destroying the Dem seat there.
Fast-forward: a section of Nashville, which just 5 years ago had a Dem representative, is now voting Dem by huge margins but it's been designed to not matter.

After World War II, 3 German U-boat crewmen were sentenced to death for machine-gunning Allied sailors who were clinging to life rafts after their boat was sunk.
It's long been known in the military that this is a war crime. Pete Hegseth must be fired and prosecuted.
