The Cracker Barrel thing was THIS YEAR. We have three more years of this shit. Anybody who makes it to 2028 without looking like Nosferatu will be required by the state to start a skincare brand.

BREAKING: Federal judges ruled that Texas Republicans CANNOT use their gerrymandered map in the 2026 midterm elections.
A TRUMP-APPOINTED JUDGE wrote in the ruling that "substantial evidence shows that Texas racially gerrymandered the map."
This is a HUGE WIN for democracy.

Katie Wilson Is Seattle’s Next Mayor
Somewhere, Bruce Harrell is slamming a table. Katie Wilson is up by 1,976 votes and 0.72 percent of the vote. It’s tight, but we’re outside of recount territory, and it’s mathematica...

Wow. While we wait for the few remaining ballots to be counted, we feel like we have won this race. The recent drop put us nearly 1,400 votes ahead, just under the .5 percent threshold for a mandatory recount.

Authoritarian parties can only succeed when the pro-democracy parties fail to fight for working people.

🚨This 16 year old was living a normal life until this administration took over the country. ICE is the enemy of humanity, decency, integrity, and all that used to represent this country. Meanwhile, Trump is building a private army, one that will be more ruthless and violent. 1/2

Should be interesting to see how Mike Johnson handles this. He will have to call in session to vote and pass this. So, going to be even harder to ignore not swearing in Congresswoman from Arizona. Epstein Files!

Schumer put the nail in his own coffin and the Democratic Leadership. It's done. Just a matter of time. Ditto Centrists.
They have misread the moment and the rage of the people.
Trump and MAGA will continue playing them because they know they are weak.
