The "socialist" label energizes a specific coalition—young people, people of color, and lower-income Democrats—but it simultaneously alienates a larger and, in most competitive elections, more decisive coalition of older voters, white voters, higher-income voters, and political independents.

What of the last 11 months do these people think they want more of? Who are these people? Who hurt them and made them like this?

Also we're gerrymandered to hell. The maps got changed in '22. So not only did people show up, but it's in a district that was designed to make sure Ds would never win.

Let's be clear: no Republicans in seats Trump won by less than 10pts is safe.
We're coming for all of them.

"You cannot kill shipwrecked survivors. Under the Geneva Conventions and U.S. military law, anyone who is shipwrecked — meaning their ship sank and they’re in the water, in a lifeboat, or otherwise helpless — is considered “hors de combat” (out of the fight)"

Woah. Newsmax’s legal analyst just said Pete Hegseth and everyone involved in the illegal boat strike should be “prosecuted for a war crime.”
They’ve even lost Newsmax on this one.

This story sums up Trump: No need for evidence. No need for laws or treaties. No need for discussions. If Trump decides (based upon whatever random information or maybe just heartburn) that someone is in the wrong, he believes he has the right to kill them.

It's wild but not surprising that last week the White House was leaning into "these seditious Democrats dared suggest that troops were receiving illegal orders!!!" and this week they are scrambling to figure out who to blame for issuing illegal orders.

Tennessee is full of racists bigot losers.
Tonight, we did something everyone counted out. We proved to a nation that states like Tennessee are still worth fighting for. The margin was close, and that can only be attributed to the thousands of volunteers who showed out. This is just the beginning.

Efficacy of Economic Messaging in Regulatory Races
The success in these obscure utility regulator races provides a vital data point regarding messaging efficacy. PUC members make decisions directly impacting consumer costs and energy sources.

Further evidence of deep down-ballot engagement came from Georgia, where two Democrats achieved "romping" victories over Republican incumbents in the Public Service Commission elections. These wins delivered the largest statewide margins of victory for Democrats in Georgia in over 20 years.
