"The immediate results suggest whatever confidence this president enjoyed is now crumbling amid a record length government shutdown, a camouflaged cascade of federal kidnappings, a tariff-battered economy, and the systemic demolition of democratic norms," @jimsaksa.com reports on election night.

I live in Alabama and Tommy Tuberville is a corrupt, lying scumbag. According to reports from late October and early November 2025, figures in the range of 726,000 to 752,000 individuals in Alabama are currently on SNAP.

I can’t believe they called prop 50 the moment polls closed. That tells you something. Most of these races were called within 45 minutes. It’s a BLOWOUT, y’all. THAT is what we call a MANDATE.

Open enrollment for ACA healthcare plans has started, and enrollees are seeing what their premium costs will be next year.

Without subsidies, one couple will see their monthly costs increase from $495 to $2,168 — a 300% increase.

This is what Democrats are fighting to prevent.

California voters agreed to aggressively redraw the state's congressional district lines to wipe out as many as five Republican seats. Prop 50 passes in a clear rebuke to Donald Trump.

This victory is a warning to every Republican governor trying to rig the map for Trump’s benefit and strip voters — especially Black and brown communities — of their electoral power. California voters said loud and clear: We’re not folding, we’re fighting. And they won.

This win should light a fire under Democratic governors everywhere. When leaders in states like Virginia, Maryland, and Illinois look at the win in California, their takeaways should be clear: Be bold. Be ambitious. Follow California’s lead.

Tonight's results are going to put the fear of God into MAGA redistricting efforts. None of them will want to risk diluting their seats in this environment.
