This is correct, and what we saw tonight is that the people aren't gonna put up with this shit. The No Kings Era is here to stay.
not to bring the vibe down, but my guess is that after tonight Trump will probably double down on gerrymandering, voter suppression, and intimidation as tactics to disincentivize Dem turnout ahead of next year‘s midterms. (with margins like these, it won’t matter, but it’s a time to be vigilant)

It’s official: We just added a Democratic trifecta in Trump’s backyard! This win puts a big obstacle in front of Trump & his MAGA minions. Now it’s up to Governor-elect Spanberger and the new Democratic majority to keep building on that mandate and protect Virginians from their problematic neighbor.

LEAVITT: It's absolutely true that there's fraud in California's elections

PHILLIP: Republicans are saying that Chuck Schumer is afraid of you. Is he?

AOC: I don't think so. Sen. Schumer and I have worked together. I think Republicans are afraid of me and they project their fear onto him. So they're just telling on themselves when they say that.

There will be many takes, and their mileage will vary, but I do think at the very least that voters seem eager for a political culture that calls bullshit bullshit and stupidity stupidity

Does America care about these kids? Will tears be shed in Washington D.C. for them? Will people even know their names?

And just like that, the ‘No New Wars’ people are all-in on a new war. Proving yet again that they really believe in nothing other than what one man tells them to believe today. Which could be different tomorrow. The very definition of a cult.

Donald Trump illegally took military action against Iran—without congressional authorization—risking dragging us into another endless war.

I am calling for an immediate emergency session of Congress to vote on the War Powers Resolution.

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

Remember how Trump convinced people he was a brilliant businessman? Now, he’s repackaged himself as some kind of “alpha leader.” But just like his businessman brand, Trump's strongman persona is crumbling right before our eyes as he struggles to hide his profound weakness as a leader.
From Alpha To Beta: Trump's "Strong Leader" Persona Is Crumbling
Trump's performative strength can no longer hide the profound weakness of his presidency
