You know who really ought to pay attention the result in TX Sen 9? Democratic leadership in Congress.

This is tear gassing protesters just for protesting. There is no threat, and the only danger presented is ICE behaving recklessly. There is no provocation; this is just straight up assault.
Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

I just did the math and based on these results, Will Stancil will be a Supreme Court judge in 2029
UPDATE: The Democrat won the latest batch of roughly 6,000 votes, continuing to dominate in the count.

The Election Day vote is bluer than the early vote day so far.

With 55K votes in, Rehmet is up 57% to 43%.

This is a 30% swing since 2024 for now.

I just drove past an abandoned car, with the doors open. (wrong side of highway, others had already stopped.)
This is Minnesota. No one for any reason intentionally leaves their car on the side of the road w/the doors open in January
Please understand: nothing has changed here. Please tell people

There is something deeply broken in this country when the Department of Justice is arresting journalists but letting pedophiles run free.

This is really just straight up Gestapo shit.

ICE and CBP are badly losing the public opinion battle so they have decided that every person who tries to document their behavior must be stopped.
This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here.

Was working at a SBUX yesterday and a couple people sat down next to me with a barista. They seemed to be from corporate doing a developmental coaching session. Didn't catch most of it, but I heard them advising how ChatGPT was a great resource for questions related to upskilling and advancing.
1. Most people probably just get something they know that is going to work for them on any particular day.

2. Talk to a Barista. At least in small coffee shops they are quite friendly and happy to chat about different options and make recommendations.

Describe your mood, get a drink. Starbucks is building an AI "ordering companion" that translates cravings into customized recipes. We're calling it vibe coffee.

People are reading this way wrong. Schumer detached DHS from the other five bills in return for a two week CR on the DHS bill. Now Democrats can make demands on DHS spending without having to shut down agencies covered in the other five bills. They have way more leverage to get real concessions.
People just going out here saying the literal opposite of what happened. Thune caved! Thune did! This is a cave by Thune and Senate Republicans, any possible way you cut it.

If you like the 30 Rock humor and have Peacock check out the Rise and Fall of Reggie Dinkins with Tracy Morgan. Hilarious.

This slop is chum for the low information folks on this site who think the Dems can actually defund and abolish ICE right now. Clearly bad faith by Markey and his staff trying to drive donations from those who are wishcasting. I'm going to have to pull out my wallet for one of his competitors.
Right now, Democrats have the power to defund and abolish ICE. We should do it. This is about right and wrong—and the murder we are seeing on the streets is just plain wrong. Anyone who supports funding DHS and ICE is supporting the murder of Americans. We can stop this.

Listening to a podcast as I’m walking the dog on this beautiful crisp morning, and the hosts just asked their mid 20s producer if he knew what a beeper is.
“No”

I chatted with the normie wife about all this, and we are both humbled by the fact that thousands of people in one of the whitest states are protesting (incurring mortal risk!) in large part because they don’t think our family (all 1st- or 2nd-gen immigrants) shouldn’t be needlessly harassed
