This Georgia flip is in a district that the GOP drew to drown Democratic voters in Athens into a neighboring red county, Oconee.
But tonight, Dems in Athens were out in FULL FORCE to swamp that gerrymander.

It's also how you know all the reporting in his health issues are correct. He always melts down when reporters are on or around the truth. Always.
Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

Houses are expensive because billionaires gobble up homes and fix the rent or turn them into Airbnbs. The billionaires want you to think immigrants are buying up all the property.

CONFIRMED: Eileen Higgins, a Democrat, will be the new mayor of Miami.
She'll be the city's first Democratic mayor since the 1990s. She flipped the office from Republicans, and does so easily. She leads the DeSantis-endorsed Emilio González 59/41 right now with most ballots counted.

The GOP plan is to let premiums massively spike for 21 million Americans.
And then it gives them $1k per year ONLY IF they switch to bronze plans — which it also raises the cost of.
Awful awful plan that fucks over sick people.

China was the largest export market for American farmers in 2024. They bought 27 metric tons of soybeans last year. They stopped buying in 2025 when Trump started his trade war. These are simple, obvious, basic facts. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Leavitt: "President Trump convinced President Xi to continue purchasing again American soybeans, which is something China wasn't doing under the last administration because they had no respect for President Biden or the country at the time."

This entire grift relies on convincing people that they don't know how to do the things they have always known how to do, and ironically, if it works, we will, in a very short amount of time, forget how to do all the things we have always known how to do.

I mean this is ridiculous - has she met the man? And now she's all upset now because Trump's words incited violent threats against her & her son but she wasn't upset when his words incited violent threats against AOC, Schiff, Swalwell, Pelosi, or some random citizen one of his trolls singled out.

I swear that we would all be better off if these people wore shock collars that went off everytime they lied. Taxpayers had to bail farmers out last time as a direct result of Trump's policies. And now we do it again as a direct result of his idiotic actions. I hate these people.

So taxpayers have paid for Alina to pretend she's US Attorney for 109 days.

I say this to Rachel Scott - keep asking - keep pressing. Because he only reacts like this when you hit a nerve. And to the rest of the WH Press - grow some spines and stand up for your colleagues. If he won't answer her questions, the next person should ask the same things & so on & so on.

It’s very funny to me that countries are trying to pass laws banning teens from social media until they’re older and can “handle it” as if the last decade hasn’t been about watching rich middle aged men nuke their brains on Twitter and then run the USA via shitpost.
Dude. Yes. Alito and Thomas are of course the standout examples, but all of the Republican justices have tells in their writing and their questioning indicating that they are, to varying degrees, marinating their brains in dumb bitch juice
My theory, fwiw, is that Supreme Court Justices are not immune to Twitter brain poisoning. I suspect all six have horrific information environments and have therefore lost the ability to understand the people who don't agree with them.
