“The Democratic Party is all gas, no brakes. We’re not going to slow down now,” Martin said. “And to all the Republicans who have bowed a cowardly knee to Trump all year while screwing over families, consider this: We’re coming after your jobs next.”

Democrats can create 🌊🌊 anywhere with the right values, the right candidates, and old-fashioned ground work.

For almost four decades, Nancy Pelosi has served the American people and worked to make our country better. No one was more skilled at bringing people together and getting legislation passed – and I will always be grateful for her support of the Affordable Care Act.

Pretty big “error” to make, especially after Donald Trump outright said he would defy a court order and refuse to pay these benefits.

The crooks in the Trump administration are blocking SNAP benefits for kids, seniors, and veterans every way they can. It’s sick.

Last night was a big night for Democrats! The way we feel today is the way we felt after December 12, 2017, when Alabama shocked the world by electing Doug Jones to the United States Senate. Next November we can feel that way again by electing Democrats up-and-down the ballot in Alabama.

I’m sorry. I was told that last night was just blue states voting blue. So I’m confused on how this red state flipped seats. The president and Fox News wouldn’t lie, surely???

The fact that Trump and the GOP still want to blame Democrats is mind boggling! The people are speaking loud and clear, they refuse to listen.

The battle has just begun, roll up your sleeves everyone because they are about to play even dirtier than ever before. We must keep working hard for 2026!

What happened here in California tonight is a victory for the people of this country.

Donald Trump’s attempts to rig the midterm elections are backfiring.

His attempts to silence you are backfiring.

His entire presidency is backfiring.

That may me one of the more significant results of yesterday.

The GOP have outplayed Democrats for quite some time at the State and local levels.

"Last night's victory proves that Mississippi is no longer a foregone conclusion—we are a battleground state," Mississippi Democratic Party Chairman Cheikh Taylor says in a statement this morning after Democrats broke the GOP Senate supermajority.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE November 5, 2025 Historic Victory: Mississippi Democrats Break Republican Supermajority JACKSON, MS — In a historic rebuke of extremism, Mississippi voters shattered the Republican supermajority in the state Senate last night, restoring balance and accountability to state government—a victory made possible by the very Voting Rights Act protections now under threat before the Supreme Court. Decisive Democratic wins from the Delta to the Pine Belt demonstrate that when every voice can be heard, Mississippi voters reject Trump-aligned policies and choose leaders committed to working families, quality education, and economic opportunity. Newly elected and returning Democratic champions include: Theresa Isom (Senate District 2) Reginald Jackson (Senate District 11) Justin Crosby (House District 22) Johnny DuPree (Senate District 45) "Last night's victory proves that Mississippi is no longer a foregone conclusion—we are a battleground state," said Cheikh Taylor, Mississippi Democratic Party Chairman. "But this win was only possible because the Voting Rights Act ensures fair representation. If the Supreme Court dismantles these protections, we risk silencing the very voices that made last night's historic outcome possible. As voters continue to reject Trump's agenda in 2026 and 2027, we must protect the fundamental right that makes change possible: the right to vote." "Tonight, Mississippi voters reminded us that change is possible when we show up together," said Mississippi Democratic Party Vice-Chair Jodie Brown. "Breaking the supermajority means restoring checks and balances—and ensuring that every Mississippian's voice counts in their state government." This breakthrough victory reflects communities reclaiming their power and demanding leaders who represent their interests—not partisan extremes. "The road to 2026 and 2027 begins now," said Taylor. "Rooted in accountability, opportunity, and protecting every Mississippian's voice."

Last night gave us hope for tomorrow, but today, the reality and the reason why we must keep fighting remains the same.

Millions of Americans will go hungry because Trump and Republicans refuse to fund SNAP.
Americans are going hungry. FIRST DOGE cut essential funding, stretching food programs thin. THEN Republicans slashed SNAP benefits with Trump's Big Ugly Bill. NOW Trump is using the government shutdown to illegally withhold SNAP benefits. Republicans are hurting people. They've done it before, and they're doing it again.
