w/ Sen. Warnock having donors laugh in his face when he told them to pay attention to Mississippi, Jamie Davis being told he didn't have a chance in hell, Angie Nixon directly saying Kamala's loss led to a lack of investment, and Scott Colom relaying direct disrespect from pollsters, it's a problem.

Gotta say, Dan may have just dropped the most robust post-election analysis to date. Props to Dan.

Discworld QOTD, from Moving Pictures '“Why is it all Mr. Dibbler’s films are set against the background of a world gone mad?” said the dwarf. Soll’s eyes narrowed. “Because Mr. Dibbler,” he growled, “is a very observant man.”'

We got our daughter a Yoto, which is like a baby radio/Bluetooth speaker, and in addition to it playing your music it also has dedicated radio stations that will play gentle covers of popular songs and this is definitely the most insane one so far

A thing I bring up a lot/constitutes the first chapter of my book: You know what most folks consider the biggest piece of legislation passed by liberals since at least the 60s? The Affordable Care Act. You know who Barack Obama credits with getting that across the finish line? Catholic nuns.

Anita Earls just won reelection to the North Carolina Supreme Court. Her parents had to move to Seattle before she was born because their home state of Missouri had banned interracial marriage.

My girlfriend’s grandmother is approaching 100. She braved the elements, risk of infection, and an inaccessible polling place to help prevent Bolsonaro from taking power. I would like this small man to go explain to her why she was foolish for risking so much to vote against a dictatorship.

Tad Stoermer@tadstoermer.bsky.social · 2d ago

I’m visiting resistance museums in Copenhagen and Amsterdam next week. I just went to one in Berlin. Too bad all that resistance, the risk, the loss, was unnecessary. The fools didn’t know they could have just voted their way out of fascism. If only they’d been Americans.

if the dems do somehow manage to roll into the presidency with 60 senate seats in 2029 it will be orders of magnitude better than the caucus obama had to deal with

one thing that is really cool about this senate class is how many of them are basically just normie dems

Good. The Wisconsin hyper-gerrymandering that made us not a democracy for years is only half done. The state maps are fixed. The Congressional maps need to be next.

Stephen Wolf@stephenwolf.bsky.social · yesterday

Wisconsin Gov.-elect David Crowley says he would sign a bill to replace the pro-Republican congressional map after Democrats won full control of state government for the first time in 16 years. A fairer map could add 2 Dem-favoring seats and give them a chance to win 4-6 of the 8 seats in 2028

Had to come and see it for myself. LEGENDARY.

Cannot emphasize enough how disastrous the anti-trans messaging was in MO: - A3 failed in GOP strongholds like JeffCo - @fpwellman.bsky.social won by 4.9% - Keri Ingle and Betsy Fogle won their Senate races easily - Lots of House Dems who were attacked w/ anti-trans messaging won too

Steven T. Dennis@steventdennis.bsky.social · yesterday

I think one reason Rs focus so much on trans is they keep losing cultural wedge issues from previous decades. Abortion rights winning at ballot box, including 'red' states like Missouri & Kansas. Marriage equality won 57% in VA. Abortion rights 63%. 66% opposed anti-marijuana initiative in Idaho.
