In a stealth upset, Democrat Eric Gisler flips a GOP-held Georgia House seat spanning parts of Athens and Oconee County. Gisler won 39% of vote last November. He captured 51% tonight to defeat a Republican backed by Gov. Brian Kemp and other GOP leaders.

Yesterday, I held a music festival in my district to register voters and speak directly to young people who don’t usually attend political events. 4,500 tickets. Music + advocacy go hand in hand. Madsoul Festival 2025 was a success.

I'm a Brit and, I'm going to be frank. Really frank. I'm fucking disgusted looking at these images. What the fuck is America doing to itself? Have you all lost your fucking minds? We all fought and won WW2 to prevent this kind of thing happening in our countries. And here you are doing it anyway.

Some people are still sleeping off their hangovers from Election Day.

But we've already made 4,655 calls into Georgia SD35 for their upcoming special election. Then we'll be calling for runoffs & special elections in Florida, Iowa, New Mexico, and elsewhere.

Can't stop, won't stop. 🗳

This is like saying "We don't do physics" or "We don't acknowledge heat."

Soldiers will die and our national security will suffer.
Troops are collapsing from heat exhaustion. Military bases are flooding. Planes can’t lift off in hotter air.

But the Pentagon’s new message under Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth: “We don’t do climate change crap.”
Pentagon retreats from climate fight even as heat and storms slam troops
For decades, the military treated climate change as a threat. Now it’s backing away from plans to protect people and bases from extreme weather.

Red Top Mountain State Park.

All the lakes, waterfalls and rivers are low. Some streams are bone dry. We need rain. Still beautiful and soul soothing though.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
