25 years ago today, SCOTUS elected George W Bush president of the United States by blocking completion of a voting canvass in Florida. A subsequent canvass by the Associated Press showed that Bush's rival, Al Gore, had won the race in Florida—and thus the contest for the presidency—by 700 votes.

Cory Doctorow : "We need to make tech workers unionized again ... because tech workers that aren't working behind a keyboard, those tech workers, they're peeing in bottles or being injured at 3x the national rate in an Amazon warehouse. That's how tech bosses treat workers they're not afraid of."

This is hilarious. Bari's new anchorman is going to leave the studio to...cover the news. What a crazy, innovative idea. Wow.
But beware of the right-wing 'fairness' argument she's making here (again). That's MAGA code for pretending demonstrable lies are equal to documented facts. 1/

sure looks like at the state level, Democrats have decided to win. Might be good idea for those stuck in the DC Dem strategist bubble to talk to some of them instead of just each other
I've spoken with 20 of the 25 over past year - and learned a lot. They all knock doors. Talk to actual voters

A huge night for Democrats:
—They flip Miami's mayorship.
—They flip a state House district in Georgia that had voted Trump by 13%.
—They keep Albuquerque's mayorship, while the liberal faction flips city council.
—And they get big overperformances (+18 & +22) in 2 Florida specials.

If true, this is worse than if Trump knew who he was pardoning. All it tells us is that there are people in his orbit that know exactly how to manipulate him to do whatever they want him to do.

Nothing says we are MAGA now like sidelining actual journalists while showcasing a partisan activist in a prime time event. Trump must be thrilled by the Ellison network's latest move towards propaganda and away from fact based journalism. My latest:

Yep, the Supreme Court really is just a House of Lords—a purely political branch with bizarre veto power, wielded capriciously and without accountability. Time for massive reform.

There was a 13 point swing last night in TN-07.
If we see a 13 point swing in South Carolina in Nov 2026 Lindsey Graham will be retired and I will be the first ever pediatrician Senator.
