Democrats leaving the barn to chew on the grass!
Months of winter in a barn, then the doors finally open onto fresh grass. In Denmark organic dairies hold an open day each spring so crowds can watch the herds bolt into the fields. Dairy cows in the Netherlands and the UK have been filmed dancing too, and a cattle expert told NPR that cows get lively whenever something new or unexpected happens. Most relatable animal on the internet.

By choosing Miller as his CoS after getting slaughtered in the election is a first in world history -- he commits suicide twice.
Why It’s Impossible to Overstate How Dangerous Stephen Miller Is Miller is now shadow president to an ailing 80-year-old. It couldn’t be any worse apple.news/AaOazKW-cSgGzP63D…

At least McCarthy admits the #s & problems. Two moves however show that Trump's uneducable: his choice of Miller to lead comeback and blaming "bad candidates" for the wipeout when they all lost by similar amounts... BECAUSE OF HIM. Think Bruce Willis at end of "6th Sense".
BREAKING: In an amazing moment, Kevin McCarthy is having an extreme meltdown at the magnitude of Democrats' victories on Tuesday. This is a must watch.

Giddy-Time: After Midterms realignment, America is now two big steps away from flipping from Minority to Majority Rule: Step #1: National Popular Vote. Step #2: Replacement of two reactionary justices. TRIFECTA: 1776, 1865, 2032(?) No Kings. No Slaves. No Fascists.
Turn up the volume. This is interesting

Poor Musk (which is a strange set of words). Even a trillionaire' doesn't like blowing $440 million. The election should be the death knell of the most powerful tandem in American history. That was an Orban-level event.

And Fetterman's leverage is...what? He's gonna join the minority party run by a president who yesterday opposed more arms to Israel?

This guy is full of shit. They're entitled to oppose El-Sayed very selectively in primary but once he won, the loser doesn't try to shake him down w/Senate seat & Senate at risk. He refused to play their game. Happened to me after I won a close primary. Politics is a team sport.
How come you didn’t do your Islamophobic election analysis for The Atlantic?

REFLECTIONS ON A ROUT. congress.gov/119/bills/hres1… Trump takes a "What, Me Worry?" pose to the Democrats' best night in decades. No one's fooled.

Today's GOP wipeout is first of several inflection points making Trumpism an historic one-time calamity on the order of Salem Witch Trials. 2 Qs: Will his grandchildren change their last names & will AG Jack Smith figure out how to indict top Trumpers? bit.ly/3V6kiNQ

The most corrupt administration ever is demanding that Pertola quit her Senate race...while the NYTimes just exposed how nine Trump cabinet sec'ts are now violating the Hatch Act which prohibits using federal funds to electioneer. Where's AG Blanche? nytimes.com/2026/10/28/us/po…
🚨🔥 IT’S OFFICIAL — AND IT’S GETTING WORSE 🔥🚨 There is an AGGRESSIVE CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION into the fraudulent “Dan Sullivan” ballot scheme in Alaska — a coordinated effort by Democrat operatives tied to Mary Peltola’s campaign to plant a namesake spoiler on the ballot and steal votes from Sen. Dan Sullivan (R). The New York Times just dropped the receipts: Peltola aides and allies spent months hunting voter rolls for another Dan Sullivan, recruited him, and worked to stack the ballot with spoilers. Her own former campaign manager admitted she was “definitely aware.” NOW IT’S INTENSIFYING 🔥
Multiple grand jury subpoenas are expected in the coming days. The Justice Department has already sued to block certification if voter confusion costs Sullivan the race. President Trump and AG Todd Blanche were right from the start. This is exactly why Democrats push Ranked Choice Voting — so they can run dirty tricks, split the vote, and steal seats they can’t win straight up. Alaskans: vote YES to abolish it. Take the fraud tools away. The people who orchestrated this scam are cooked. The DOJ is coming.

Yale Law's Vance is down to one answer to every question about a Trump failure -- play dumB. So: a Middle East explodes after Ameria attacks Iran?. Aw shucks, real problem is silly unpronouncable countries. So: two Dan Sullivans in Alaska? Aw shucks, ranked choice is hard math.
Jor-dun? Jar-don? Joor-den? I give up

Mathamatically, a Talarico win could give Dems Senate majority. But his campaign isn't about Red or Blue or Orange .. -- it's about the values of D. J. T. -- not Donald John Trump but Decency.Justice.Truth. On those, Talarico wins hands-down over Paxton's sleaze & scandals.
Pundits may be talking about “turning Texas blue” but James Talarico isn’t. He just wants to turn it purple. What has one party rule gotten Texans? Wages below the national average. Double the uninsured rate. Record farm bankruptcies. They’re ready for a more purple change.

Vance has an amazing ability for coming up with obnoxious, racial hints without using the "N" word. Call it Hillbilly Euphemism.
Vance went to Yale Law. He married an Indian immigrant. He has four biracial children. He was raised by a grandma who supported gay rights (in 1992). Both of his in-laws are college professors who live in California. He was a Lincoln Republican who likened Trump to Hitler. Now he's what ever this is. And the depressing part? I think he's sincere. He melted his own brain.

There are two fronts in the Midterms War next week -- who wins control of Congress? and who wins the narrative for the future? Get your SCORECARD here: tinyurl.com/mr2ps93m

Yesterday Trump said his favorability was at 60 percent. How could he be so delirous? Because Natalie Harp only feeds him news that portray him as Christian Bale?
EQUILIBRIUM (2002) went absolutely feral with its gun-kata finale. Christian Bale tearing through an entire room with that perfectly choreographed blend of gunplay and martial arts is still ridiculously satisfying to watch.

Trump asked a female journo re Acton's mom, "Why won't you believe mother about her daughter?"...then yelled over her answer. Ok #47: *what about Hegseth's mom below? *why aren't I surprised that a man accused of rape would side w/a family condoning rape of their 12 yr daughter?

Is there a more inspiring cinematic version of how American progressive partisans should be standing up to the Vichy government pretending to love America while they destroy her? Viv la America!
CASABLANCA (1942) is essential viewing for any film lover. Made during World War II, it captures a world caught between love and sacrifice, with Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman at the heart of a story that has only grown more timeless with age.
