*taps papers on an empty desk*
Well, it’s about time for me to get out of here. For over a decade there was a fantastic community here. I met some fantastic people, I will miss you all, and what the platform was. Thank you for putting up with my nonsense, my typos, all of it. ❤️
Dems holding this seat would be incredible. Porter getting elected in the first place was a huge upset so the assumption was when she left this was supposed to be an automatic GOP pickup.
In the open Katie Porter #CA47, an additional 8,901 votes from today's Orange County update break 52.9%/47.1% for Democrat Dave Min, cutting Republican Scott Baugh's lead by 517 votes down to 616 votes and 0.22%.

New York is called. @NBCNews projections: Democrats gain 3 House seats.
🔵 NY04: Laura Gillen (D) defeats Rep. Anthony D’Esposito (R). Dem flip.
🔴 NY17: Rep. Mike Lawler (R) defeats Mondaire Jones (D). GOP hold.
🔵 NY18: Rep. Pat Ryan (D) defeats Alison Esposito (R). Dem hold.
🔵 NY19: Josh Riley (D) defeats Rep. Marc Molinaro (R). Dem flip.
🔵 NY22: John Mannion (D) defeats Rep. Brandon Williams (R). Dem flip.
They’re going to start in blue states, in big cities and the GOP hope is that people push back. This lets them bring in the military and crack down. This will force Dem electeds on the ballot next year to make a choice, back the Trump Deportation Force or stand with “the mob.”

Y’all better start bookmarking these stories for when the GQP tries to lie their way through 2025 & 2026.
Companies are already preparing for tariffs and that means higher prices and layoffs 🤷🏾♀️
I’m almost positive most folks that voted red had no idea.

For what it's worth, we don't even have to wait:
It was *last week* when Trump said the U.S. economy is in good shape — and he wanted credit: tinyurl.com/4ek6emay

Donald Trump gave farmers $28 billion in handouts to make up for the losses inflicted on them by China's retaliation against his tariffs, and working-class people didn't seem to mind at all.
Gaspard on #inners saying the answer, in part was Biden going on Joe Rogan early in his presidency. GTFOH.
VandeHei made a play to get on the inside for Trump news and leaks by sucking up to him. Looks like it’s paying off.
Trump’s America returns.

I don’t particularly like to call people dumb. But this take is insufferably stupid and makes me question this person’s general competence.
She’s right. Literally everything this Senate can do while it still can. Absolutely everything.
Warren wants no sleep til Jan. 3: "Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer must use every minute of the end-of-year legislative session to confirm federal judges and key regulators—none of whom can be removed by the next President" time.com/collection/time100-…
Bracing myself for the takes that are like, ‘Man, who could have guessed Trump was going to surround himself with those who enable his worst impulses and who help him commit crimes from the Oval Office. Who saw that coming?’
Every bit of this is why a good number of Trump voters went to the polls. Because accountability is for other people and accountability cannot be, under any circumstances, enforced by a Black woman in power. Ever.
