BREAKING: the Democratic National Committee just unanimously approved a resolution calling for the abolition of ICE! After terrorizing our friends, families, and neighbors, ICE has no place in our nation. I'm grateful @democrats.org agreed. Now we're onto the hard work to make that happen!
Imagine Shoeless Joe Jackson, disgraced should-be Hall of Famer, walking through the cornfield and seeing this absolute bullshit on the wall.
this is really great work
I have reanalyzed polling microdata from two surveys in Wisconsin, generously shared with me by State Navigate, and put the results up Strength In Numbers for all to learn from. As far as I know this is the only public autopsy from Tuesday's miss www.gelliottmorris.com/p/2026-08-13...

for all of the drama around the primaries themselves it is really heartening to see that most of the candidates appear one hundred percent on board with the most important goal: beat MAGA in November
David Crowley says he and Francesca Hong will campaign together as part of a "unity tour"
We could avoid all of this simply by not covering elections this way & waiting until all the results are in, instead of doing hours of theater & creating space for authoritarians to sow doubt about voter fraud because they've passed laws forbidding the timely counting of ballots in WI & elsewhere.

can't wait to see vpr's deep dive into every single one of amanda's policy utterances while they continue to ignore for 10 years running the crooked boondoggle that is the agency of digital services
Janoo now sets to the task of unseating Republican Gov. Phil Scott, a five-term incumbent who won more than 70% of the general election vote in 2024. https://www.vermontpublic.org/local-news/2026-08-12/amanda-janoo-wins-vermont-democratic-primary-governor

I have had this discussion with other dads: what kind of government does the city of Adventure Bay have? You could claim it is Warlordism. Or you could claim it was the old Italian elite patron-client model. But it is not a free society.
I can’t wait to ask the flight attendants if they “got Donald Trump in there” tomorrow
