There are obviously a lot of dangers ahead, but I do believe the election of 2026 will go on pretty much as normal, and the Dems may be handed a great political opportunity. And I just wish I hadn’t spent the last three decades of my life watching them trip over their own dicks. But one can hope.
JUST IN: Democrats flip a red seat in the Texas Senate.
Taylor Rehmet wins against Leigh Wambsganss, a conservative activist who helped lead right-wing efforts to take over TX school boards.
With all early vote, and 95% of precincts, in, Dem up 57/43.
Trump won this seat by 17% in Tarrant County.

Small thing but just saw a clip of Trump saying “he lied like a dog,” and I’m certain he doesn’t understand it’s a pun and thinks dogs are particularly egregious liars.

One small bit of joy I get is that Trump is so annoyed that Obama got the Nobel Prize, and how much it bothers him, just gnaws at his guts that the Black President got one, and he hasn’t gotten one. It’s a small, mirthless pleasure, to be sure, but I’ll take what I can get.
Opposition leader Maria Corina Machado has worked to promote democracy in Venezuela.
“If she had turned [the Nobel Peace Prize] down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” a source close to the White House said. trib.al/oKX1dm5

I don’t know what I would do as Dictator, but one of my first decrees would be no words on sneakers describing their features, and no more than two logos. Like, thanks for letting everyone glancing at my feet I have Max Cushioning. This is helpful information for all involved.

So, I’m on Verizon and Verizon keeps sending me texts trying to sell me a new phone, because they have my number, because they are my phone company, and this isn’t that big of a deal, but also, it would be nice if this country would tell big companies they aren’t allowed to do things like one time.

Just told my 10yo daughter about #ChuckSchumer. She had tears in her eyes. And then she did the Wakanda pose and said "#Chuckanda forever"—which is the sort of pop culture cross-over I can celebrate.

A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.
