Thirty point swing to Democrats deep in the heart of Texas.
Hard to overstate how big a deal a Rehmet win would be. Tarrant County is the epicenter of Christian nationalism in Texas, an incubator for far-right policies, and nexus of billionaire Tim Dunn's network, which is riding hard for Wambsganss. Rehmet almost entirely funded by donations of $100 or less
‼️‼️ Still a lot TBD, but Rehmet is leading early vote count by **13 POINTS** in a district that Trump won by 17 points. I'll be updating in this thread throughout the night.

If I'm understanding his argument it's not fair to single out the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES for being a sexual predator when his good friend also hung out with lots of other sexual predators?
Blanche: "I don't appreciate it being directed towards Donald J Trump, because that pushes a narrative that is completely false. There are all kinds of people that are mentioned in the 'Epstein files' that we had to look at and run down."

This is why Trump is desperately trying to distract voters from Minneapolis, Epstein, & inflation/grocery prices with Greenland, Trump 28, Don Lemon, & his other bullshit…which is backfiring bigly. This is what he & Republicans fear for November. This TEXAS FLIP is their worst fucking nightmare…

With ballots tallied from all but a handful of voting centers, Rehmet had 57% of the vote, besting the 43% for his GOP opponent, Leigh Wambsganss, who had a massive spending advantage.

ICE chased an unarmed US citizen for legally filming, boxed in her car, pulled guns, dragged her out, injured her, handcuffed her, and began driving her toward a detention facility with no warrant. A lawyer was called and the local police chief intervened, took custody of her, and drove her home.

We did not properly punish the confederates. We did not properly punish the insurrectionists on January 6th. We have to punish ICE.
They can’t be allowed to slink back into their communities quietly. Expose them. Arrest them. Convict them. Imprison them.

I understand why folks are feeling afraid and angry right now. But I need you to understand something just as clearly: this is what Black America has been living with for generations.

Every Dem should watch this ad. The thing about it is that right now, conditions are such that majorities will be receptive to this understanding of the situation. The opportunity to hammer it home should not be squandered.
