BREAKING: Maine voters reject a sweeping Republican-backed anti-voting ballot measure that would have created a new photo ID requirement for voting, eliminated programs that expanded access to absentee ballots, ended the state’s permanent absentee voter list and more. Story to come.

Nice summary @captmarkkelly.bsky.social … but you left out the part where you committed to protect health care. Don’t cave, hold the line. Don’t kneecap the enthusiasm by capitulating to GOP/Trump ransoms notes

A lot of people have been asking me all day what yesterday’s election results tell us. Every state and community is different, but as someone who has won a couple tough elections, there are a few things that stuck out to me.

It’s called extortion
Raskin: "South Korea gave him some kind of golden crown or something, and then he lowered their tariffs. That is a monarchist mercantilism, that is not the American system."

Amarillo is one of the reddest towns in Texas.
But I showed up because our campaign is not writing off any community.
It was standing room only.

The majority of Americans are good. We have heart. We have compassion. When we see others struggle, we want to lend a hand.
For too long, we’ve been divided and pitted against each other by those who crave obscene wealth and power.
Let’s change that. One election at a time.

All the pearl-clutching about Zohran Mamdani--by right-wingers who elected a half-senile old TV star president--is very amusing. For once the shoe is on the other foot.

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

A rich country should not be letting its people go hungry or freeze or be unable to access healthcare. Unconscionable.
It’s not just the shutdown - this admin wants to limit, if not entirely eliminate, food, heating, and healthcare assistance programs.

BREAKING: Californians overwhelmingly approve Prop 50, a pro-democracy measure that allows the state to redraw its congressional map to counter Trump’s election rigging efforts. The Golden State moves one step closer to gaining five Democratic U.S. House seats in 2026. More to come.

Republicans hate America
We’ve still had no oversight hearings, no classified briefings, and no legal justification for this Administration's boat strikes.
It is completely a dereliction of duty for Republicans to not convene at all and be on vacation during this shutdown.
