Your regular reminder that eternal one-party domination by Republicans is not inevitable, Trump is not invincible, and when the far right receives even moderate pushback against their terrible ideas, they usually collapse.
multiple major setbacks for trump's effort to steal the midterm House election. CA passed their gerrymander; VA D win ensures they will pass theirs; IN refused to pass an R map, defying Trump; courts struck down TX map.

right now looks like outcome of all this could be to add *D* seats.

authors you have the chance to do the funniest thing right now
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action
Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

Giannis out 1-2 weeks seems like a positive development, all things considered. Gonna be tough sledding for the Bucks until the Nets and Wizards games though.

Nice effort by the Hornets, but the Bucks simply can't be beat in NBA Cup pool play. Now 10-0 all time.

If I was a Democrat in a state with a large THC beverage distribution market, I would be saying things like "Donald Trump and his Republican friends want to make doing weed illegal again."

Earnest post: there is increasingly direct evidence that Trump participated in child sex trafficking or at least knew about it.

He should resign, be impeached and removed from office, and prosecuted.

Even if you don’t think that WILL happen it’s important to say publicly that it SHOULD happen.

I feel like we're in a weird world where the average Dem partisan, engaged voter is better informed than most of their representatives
seems to me that those democrats inclined not to fight perceive themselves as living through a somewhat ordinary cycle of presidential overreach and backlash and not something much more significant and dangerous

Right, the answer isn't to abandon the party to these weasels.

The answer is to flood the party with people who will take it over and transform it.
Hey, a lot of people are talking about changing affiliation from Democratic to Independent.

Let me tell you why you shouldn’t do that in Colorado.

One of the main ways to get a primary challenge candidate on a ballot is to caucus for your party. You need to be registered as a Dem to caucus.

Checking in on QB negative play rate through Week 10, and it's another bad one for J.J. McCarthy.

Negative play rate is a stat I've began tracking a few years ago. It's sacks+interceptions+fumbles lost ÷ dropbacks.

A study earlier this month found that America’s more fragmented media landscape — particularly the takeoff of cable news — accounts for fully one third of the increase in cultural conflict in the US since the year 2000.

Wisconsin has been fortunate to have Tony Evers as Governor, especially considering what he's accomplished with a GOP opposition in the state legislature.

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.
