This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.
I don’t know how else to say it…

Indiana is a purple state with a turnout* problem. It would be hilarious if nuking all federal funding right before a midterm boosted turnout and flipped a seat.

In the theoretical primary match up, if I do the most basic ass thing I did when Jesse Brown was running, and look at Andrea's website and Vop's website...one of them clearly articulates a policy position on a number of issues based on core principles, and one has an about page.
City-County Council President Vop Osili has announced he won't seek reelection to his leadership post, fueling speculation that he will run for mayor in 2027.

Expanding the Supreme Court should be a core part of an anti-corruption platform for Democrats in 2026 and 2028. And when I say “an anti-corruption platform,” I mean that should be *the* platform. Tie everything back to corruption.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

NEW VIDEO: We uncovered footage showing Pete Hegseth in 2016 saying the military won’t follow unlawful orders — the same point he has recently criticized Democrats, including Sen. Mark Kelly, for making - and which Trump has said is punishable by death.

I guess the future of American politics was always going to be Instagram models in Texas spouting ethnic cleansing rhetoric
Valentina Gomez announced her run for Texas’ 31st Congressional District with one of the most vile racist messages I’ve ever seen:
“Vote for me so we can kick every dirty Muslim out of Texas.
Save your daughters from getting ra**d by Muhammad”

This is all true but
1) under no definition are we currently at war with Venezuela under domestic US law
2) since we aren’t, the initial strike was just as much a murder as the follow up
The failure to understand this by a huge range of actors is really driving me up the wall.

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.
If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.
It’s that simple.

Democrats should ask: when residential natural gas prices are at their highest ever, why are we exporting a record amount? Why not use it to make energy more affordable here?
The GOP has no answer for this; it contradicts everything they claim they're doing.

Thanksgiving dinner really is an insane tradition, especially in the modern world.
Once a year, you, a complete amateur with amateur equipment, are expected to land multiple dishes at the same time, dishes you don’t otherwise cook, one of which is roasting a giant whole animal.
