"If Democrats see the same shift in Congress next year as they saw in TN-07 Tuesday night, they’d win a landslide victory of 258 seats in the U.S. House."
A recap of tonight's special election in TN-07 (plus a WAY-TOO-EARLY model of the 2026 midterms).
A swing of 13 points would put Dems over 250 seats in the U.S. House. A more reasonable scenario—say, D+6—still gives them the House, and maybe the Senate.

What the special election in Tennessee's Seventh District means for the 2026 midterms
Republicans held a Trump +22 seat — but by only 9 points. A swing half as large would give Democrats the U.S. House in 2026, and put the Senate clearly in play

Only 9 days away... seriously getting really nervous about what I'll do. Please.... please help if you can.
If you can spare anything right now, I would be so blessed for it. I want to recover from this so that I can give back to the community again, but it'll require time to heal, and with disability ending, it is rushed.
Thank you all so much for your support, and many blessings.

the American people deserve to know how many drinks Hegseth had the day he ordered the murder, and if “fog of war” is just his vision after 3pm
Q: So you didn't see any survivors after that first strike?
HEGSETH: I did not personally see survivors. The thing was on fire. This is called the fog of war. This is what you in the press don't understand. You sit in your air conditioned offices and plant fake stories in the Washington Post

Not just a tragedy for America, but, given the central place the US occupies in the research ecosystem, a tragedy for the world.

Second, if a Speaker of the House isn't up to date on current news, he isn't fit to serve. Even if Mike Johnson he didn't see it himself-highly unlikely-a staffer would've told him
So third, Johnson is lying
