Kornaki is talking about HARRISON County, Mississippi. This is where I grew up. The largest city is Gulfport. This is truly a wild night and proof of a blue wave no matter what happens.
So much damage has been done in these last years, but all is not lost

'In 1860, an enslaved man named Sheppard Peek was listed among the possessions of William Peek, a white man in Crawfordville. His value was placed at $1,400. More than a century and a half later, Sheppard’s great-great-granddaughter, Keisha Lance Bottoms, was elected governor of Georgia.'
Keisha Lance Bottoms and the long road from Crawfordville to Governor’s Mansion
More than 160 years after her ancestors were enslaved in Georgia, the former Atlanta mayor has made history as the first Black woman elected governor.

Hegseth plans on returning the Arlington Confederate monument. It’s pro-slavery and anti-United States. The cruelest, most racist monument in the US. Here’s the article I wrote for the WSJ a few years ago.
This is morally monstrous behavior. These are ordinary, innocent people that Trump is condemning to suffering & death out of political vindictiveness. Every decent human being, regardless of political party, should condemn it. Where is the fucking *anger*? From the press? From civic leaders? Pols?
FEMA said yes to Democratic disaster requests. Trump killed them anyway.
President Donald Trump cast aside bipartisan precedent when he rejected eligible disaster requests from four blue states.

“Vivek Sankaran, a professor at the University of Michigan Law School and child advocacy law expert, said he was troubled that Michigan State Police went to Buttigieg’s door with such a vague allegation that didn’t present any indication that children were imminently at risk.”
Fenit Nirappil@fenitn.bsky.social · 4mo agoHow did a false allegation lead to Pete Buttigieg's separation from his kids? Our exclusive reporting shows how authorities did not take steps to vet the caller who left her contact. We found the caller who said she wanted to thwart his White House ambitions.

My 8 year old daughter said “search it up” yesterday and I corrected her. At least say “look it up”. 🙄

Does FIFA need an anthem? This is useless and silly.
I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.
Who cares what sets him off? Everything sets him off. What about the American people being “set off”??

Tough night for the Golden Knights. This one may be a wrap.
I’m not sure why this isn’t being mentioned more, but: IRS policy for 50 years has been that the sitting president & VP get audited every year, in an effort to reassure the public they’re not corruptly abusing the office to enrich themselves.
