The 2024 Presidential Straw Poll in Puerto rico, The first time all Puerto Ricans had the option to indicate their preference as to who should be elected U.S. President returned a staggering 46.6% victory for Harris despite an election that saw a major swing right amongst Latinos throughout the U.S.

it’s quite funny when people pretend to be offended by the obviously correct statement that the modern Hawaiian independence movement is a ridiculous dead end
By "Hawaii independence dead enders," are you referring to the Hawaiian Natives at the heart of the ke ea Hawaiʻi campaign? Cuz, uh, yikes.

What if I told you that Native sovereignty and self-determination aren't the sum of a pro/con list, and are actually inherent goods worth fighting for?
my favorite part of the Hawaii independence dead enders is that they are also almost universally anti-tourism

and it’s like, you realize that as an independent country Hawaii would have to be *even more reliant on tourism* to sustain its economy and standard of living

really hard to overstate how much AIPAC fucked up here - not only did they push out the more pro-Israel candidate for not toeing their exact line, they started a blood feud with him and are clearly in the process of making themselves completely unwelcome in Dem politics
BIG NEWS FROM NJ-11: former Rep. Tom Malinowski concedes, congratulates Analilia Mejia on a positive and well-run campaign, blames AIPAC for his loss, and promises to vigorously oppose anyone AIPAC backs against Mejia in June

(Eventual for SS) With each side having termination rights making it a non-permanent status & tantamount to eventual full independence, per the status act (lots of people lie, but this is the most consice definition) www.congress.gov/bill/118th-c...

It’s basically Independence but with a treaty of mutual defense + a granting of a limited amount of federal money & programs to the people of PR (aka the elimination of SS, Medicare, food stamps & heavy curtailing of Medicaid) with money block granted. Also a mechanism to strip future citizenship.

Reminder that Puerto voted in a 30% landslide in favor of statehood over any other status option that is neither territorial, nor colonial — with nearly equivalent turnout to the concurrent Governor election!
The 2024 Puerto Rico Status Plebiscite—a contest modeled after the Nydia Velazquez+AOC/Jenniffer Gonzalez Colón Compromise PR Status act's 1st round pitted the non-territorial/non-colonial options of Stathood, Independence with Sovereign Free Assosiation, and Full Independence against each other

NOTUS doesn’t get enough flack for their ratfucking of Democrats

Brooks is not in Congress and the article notes he fully plans to divest if he wins

Remember that time one of their reporters changed an entire article of context regarding McBride and trans legislation?

NEW: Of all the states that voted for Harris over Trump in 2024, there's only one where a Dem governor is overseeing an ICE's 287(g) program:

Massachusetts.

Other blue states have quit, or even outright banned it. My colleague on what's happening: boltsmag.org/massachusett...
Inside ICE’s Only Contract with a Blue State - Bolts
As part of a 287(g) contract between state officials and ICE, Massachusetts continues to release prisoners into deportation—even as state lawmakers look to ban other forms of ICE collaboration.

it's ultimately up to the people of Puerto Rico but Puerto Rico having the ability to extort the rest of the United States thanks to the Senate seems like a weird form of justice somehow?
they'd have swing seat senators do you know how much shit they could get out of a functional senate??

Good morning from The #WeMatter State.

On this day in 1897, the Legislature implemented a poll tax for all adult voters under the age of 60. It required proof of payment in order to register and was not repealed for 70 years.

Candidate filing: 21 days
Primary: 120
General: 267

Here, she not just did that, but won a supermajority, nearly breaking a majority of the District vote and clinching more than 2/3rds of the seats, enough to amend the Japanese constitution.
February 9, 2026 at 12:28 AM
... the majority; taking advantage of her personal popularity to do so, and overcome the significant distrust that the LDP has faced among the Japanese public since the United Church of Christ/party slush fund scandal that were uncovered due the Assassination of PM Shinzo Abe.
