Is this bad for Nevada Republicans?
Rep. Mark Amodei, who is the sole Republican in Nevada's congressional delegation, will not seek reelection. Calculations by The Downballot show that Donald Trump carried his constituency, which includes Reno and dark red rural communities, 56-42 in 2024. www.the-downballot.com/p/the-downba...
Mark Amodei will retire at the end of his term - The Nevada Independent
The congressman, who has served for a decade and a half, is the only Republican in Nevada’s delegation.

over the next 3 years, be ready for seeing a lot of coverage of Republican lawmakers, business leaders, university leaders who did absolutely nothing to stall Trump (on the contrary) — about how *actually* they were wringing their hands all along. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/05/u...

Communism requires democracy to function. It isn't Communism if there isn't democracy.

I don’t think anyone expects communists to vote for bourgeois. Do communists even vote for democrats at all? Would a communist vote for AOC or Va Hollen or Mamdani (all of whom have a D next to their name)?

Are there any Rs communists would vote for?

Do communists vote in the primaries?

I know James Carville hates Kamal Harris but this is easily the stupidest, most racially clueless shit I've ever heard him say.

Also, when I want to gauge Black voter sentiment in South Carolina I always go to an ancient withering washed up anorexic turtle looking white dude lounging on his boat.

Communists don’t vote period
Liberals don't get it.

Communists don't vote for bourgeois candidates who want to maintain the status quo. It doesn't matter whether they have a "D" or an "R" next to their name.

All the people who claimed it was unfair for Kamala Harris to be the Democratic presidential nominee without competing in a primary are now freaking out because they are afraid she's gonna run in the 2028 Democratic Presidential primary.

The entire 2016 campaign was defined by the media's outrage over Hillary's use of a private email server. In 2026, a high ranking government official's use of an encrypted app to avoid scrutiny as he sends ICE goons around the nation is a one day story. YOUR MAINSTREAM MEDIA 🙃

Stonewall did not in fact do more than 50 years of voting

we live in an age where a lot of people get exposed to base level knowledge and don't get a fuller understanding but think they have authority to speak on it.
I'd point out that that period of progress didnt come from voting, that came from wide-spread activism. All the riots and protests did more than electing uninspired old white guys ever has. So far voting hasnt achieved a lot for us.

Stonewall did more than 50 years of voting.

This is incoherent even for dipshits
Instead of blaming Arab Americans in Dearborn and big accounts on Twitter for Kamala Harris’ loss, maybe people should ask why their two choices in 2024 were to either continue the genocide, or continue the genocide?

The morning after mass layoffs, The Washington Post publishes this as their lead editorial. The owner and publisher clearly have no idea why they are losing subscribers. Meanwhile they have destroyed a storied brand.

Interesting trend unfolding in this cycle's special elections (data courtesy of @the-downballot.com). In 2018, Dems way overperformed on average in heavily GOP districts; slightly in more competitive ones; and not at all in heavily Dem districts.

In 2026, they're gangbusters in all three.

Another GOP retirement from the House: Georgia Rep. Barry Loudermilk.

#GA11, in the NW Atlanta suburbs & exurbs, went 61-38 for Trump in 2024, per our calculations.
Republican Barry Loudermilk won’t seek reelection
The Georgia Republican said he plans to “spend more dedicated time with my family.”

Dems win special election for mayor ("first selectperson") in Fairfield, CT. Christine Vitale, the acting mayor, defeated Republican state Sen. Tony Hwang 56-44.

This means there will *not* be a special for Hwang's Senate seat, which is around D+20. fairfieldvotes.org

Given it’s the same handful of “progressive” wannabe personalities being the loudest online in dismissing everyone that weighs in on that damn primary it’s hard to believe there isn’t truth to the negative things about the white guy that his own actions keep reinforcing.

Really fringe-y parts of the left do this thing where they transform history into something unrecognizable - “MLK was a socialist leader who hated liberals and was assassinated by the government to stop communism” - and then they can’t understand why their theories work out in practice
Guys the government didn’t kill MLK. Plenty of elements in the government wanted him dead but they couldn’t risk it.
