Is James Talarico this generation’s John McCain who will actually attempt to work with those across the floor to get constructive things done? Let’s hope those in the Democratic Party let him be this way.🙏
Trump’s people LOST in the districts where he attended rallies and told people to vote like he was on the ballot…and people did, turning those districts blue.
Even Hannity said tonight that he could not believe the hatred for Trump.
Oh Laura, give it up!!
You and your unhinged comments have just become inconsequential. Just slink away quietly.
I hate to say it, but America is over. The communists and jihadists are going to open our borders and replace our votes with votes from illegals aliens. We now have reps who openly speak about their hatred of America, their love of communism and their support for sharia law.
We won’t be able to undo the damage they cause on our country come 2028.
America 250 was a funeral.
The American Dream is dead.
Hopefully today’s midterm results stifles this profile!!
If Texas turns blue, there’s a real possibility we could go a very long time without seeing another Republican president in the White House.
Texas has been one of the biggest electoral strongholds for Republicans. Losing it would fundamentally change the political landscape of this country. That’s the reality.
Ron DeSantis is already lining up his campaign to run for the Presidency of the US in 2028.
DeSantis is already starting to distance himself from Trump and his administration.
Governor DeSantis BLASTS Kristi Noem for bungling mass deportations and turning it into a shit show for her own glory.
DeSantis BLASTS Congressmen like Byron Donalds for making millions on the stock market.
DeSantis BLASTS Alina Habba for getting a $10 million government contract and securing a presidential pardon for her boyfriend.
“If the people in office don't display some civic virtue about public service as a sacrifice. It's not to use the public office for private gain.
I declined the pension in Congress. I declined the health care. I didn't trade the stocks.
And I believe in congressional term limits. I mean, imagine if you went to the American people and actually tried to get that done. That's not right or left. That's something that a lot of people realize.. These guys work for themselves. They should be working for you.”
Before the election today, I suggested what David Frum is also suggesting will be Trump’s reaction to today’s blue result.
“Hell hast no fury like a malignant narcissist scorned!”.
SHOCKER‼️
JUST IN: Donald Trump says there is MASSIVE election fraud happening nationwide right now
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Trump has made no statements in the last 2 hours. The last thing he stated publicly was on Truth social regarding Fox news coverage. Since election results started coming in, he has not made any statements. There are also no videos of him making any fraud statements.

Trump talks about tariff-free Canadian fertilizer as though it’s some major new trade concession. Canadian potash is ALREADY exempt from his additional tariffs! Once again, Trump is claiming credit for something that already exists!

In a Nov 2 video, she claimed Trump sexually abused her as a child starting at age 8 (worsening ages 10-12, again at 16-17), part of a pedophile ring, with later adult intimidation including a 2025 Yankees invitation. No independent corroboration, court records, or police reports have been identified. Trump has not publicly responded.

OMB data (fiscal years):
Republicans:
Reagan: $79B deficit → $153B (+$74B)
GHW Bush: $153B → $255B (+$102B)
GWB: $128B surplus → $1.41T (+$1.54T)
Trump: $665B → $2.77T (+$2.1T)
Democrats:
Clinton: $255B → $128B surplus (−$383B)
Obama: $1.41T → $665B (−$745B)
Biden: $2.77T → $1.78T (−$1.0T)
Democrats cut the annual deficit; Republicans raised it. Congress sets the budget; recessions/wars/COVID also drive the numbers.

Hey @Grok, concise, no spin.
How many DOCUMENTED CASES exist of U.S. public schools secretly performing gender-transition surgeries on children without parental consent, as Trump repeatedly claims?
NUMBER ONLY.

REMEMBER MAINE...
Susan Collins was the deciding vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh. She's the reason Roe v Wade was overturned, and why women are now treated as second class citizens.
Make her pay tomorrow at the polls.

Canada's deficit dropped from $11.07 billion to $5.36 billion, according to Finance Canada's latest Fiscal Monitor, released October 30. Poilievre knows this but he would rather spread fear!

Invest a couple of minutes of your time to learn about why US President Trump, his family and friends benefit from high oil prices and favour Russia’s Putin all day long. Nobody bangs on corruption better than US Senator Jon Ossoff.

Here's a little reality-check two-thirds of the way through 2026:
Canada Export Volumes: January–August 2026
(cumulative C$ billion exports of goods and services for eight months year-to date alongside year-over-year % change vs same period 2025)
Total Exports $ 771.5 +12.5 %
To USA Alone $ 504.7 +1.4 %
To Rest of World $ 266.8 +22.8 %
At 34.6% YTD the non-USA share of Canada's exports is apparently the highest in four decades.
