Wonderful!!!
Congratulations to Eileen Higgins for flipping the mayor’s seat in Miami! She will be the first woman in the city’s history and the first Democrat in nearly 30 years.

We are soooo going to flip the House next year.
With her runoff victory tonight, Eileen Higgins will be Miami's next mayor—the first woman in the city’s history and the first Democrat in nearly 30 years elected to the office.

Congrats, Mayor-elect!

Hey Republicans, just remember when you finally figure out Trump has to be removed - short pants vance vance is going to remember who didn't let him sit at the big boy table.

Growing a spine would help, so would a side of ethics and or values.

Trump admits he took another cognitive test.

They don’t just give those out for funsies.

He also says the NYT reporting on his heath is sedition and perhaps treason.

Whatever news he got must be awful.

The president is increasingly erratic, forgetting promises he made just days ago and lashing out angrily at reporters for asking routine questions.

Seems like the news should talk more about this

Corruption out in the open. How can the White House have the power to approve a merger or block a competing one where Trump’s own son-in-law stands to make millions? This is why the FTC should remain independent—and why Trump wants to control it.

Of course criminal slumlord Jared Kushner is behind Paramount’s hostile $108B bid to acquire Warner Bros.

Faking a Middle East peace mission and illegally accepting $2B from Saudi Arabia in exchange for US intel wasn’t enough for this crook. They should’ve jailed him long ago.

We did it! The Secretary of State has verified over 1,000 of our signatures, which means we’ve qualified for the 2026 ballot! These signatures came in from neighbors, farmers and ranchers, small business owners, veterans, and families I’ve been lucky enough to meet across Idaho.

If Americans know nothing else about Russian election interference, know this: the Trump family never reported collaboration with representatives of a hostile foreign power to the FBI. Instead, they surreptitiously worked with Russians to advance their own interests, against their fellow Americans.

And even if you're right, the punishment for drug smuggling isn't death.
Rand Paul: "This is an insane policy. It's inconsistent. It's not war. It's not the way we've ever done this. If we can blow up a boat in the ocean, what about when they get to Miami & put it in a truck? Can you shoot a grenade launcher at the truck? No! We arrest people b/c sometimes we're wrong."
