From @marcelias.bsky.social on @democracydocket.com :

Epstein was emailing former NYT reporter Landon Thomas Jr. — Dec. 8, 2015 — at the exact same time the newspaper was hyping Hillary Clinton’s emails; these emails were highly damaging to Trump... yet, we never saw them.

A direct email exchange from 2011 between Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, just released by House Oversight Committee Democrats.
Empathy is a simple but profound mechanism for building social cohesion, says @claireadida.bsky.social of @stanfordcddrl.bsky.social.

Using quantitative and field methods, Adida studies what creates or dissolves cohesion, and how that can be used to inform better policymaking.

If you score remap shifts between safe/competitive seats as +/-0.5, here's how the count looks today, to my eye:

CA: Dem +4.5
MO: GOP +1
NC: GOP +0.5
OH: GOP +0.5
TX: GOP +4
UT: Dem +1

That leaves Republicans ahead by half a seat, w/ FL, IN & VA the biggest remaining variables.
Dems score huge redistricting victory in Utah, as judge overrules GOP legislature and orders a map w/ a new Harris +24 #UT01, guaranteeing Dems a one seat pickup. www.nbcnews.com/politic…
A Republican sheriff in a swing county that Trump won by 0.1% signed a contract to help ICE, then lost last week by 11.

That is... bleak.

@gelliottmorris.com makes a compelling case that Trump is Biden now:
Donald Trump is Joe Biden now
The president's numbers on prices are where Biden's were during peak inflation in 2022-23.

What in the world have Republicans done over the past eleven months to make you think they’re going to keep a promise??

Cable news covers more culture war issues; campaign ads focus on kitchen table issues.

"The cost of all this success was a short, transitory burst of moderate inflation...& then the burst...stopped cold. It was over after the middle of 2022."

"I characterize 2024 as...a worldwide failure to break the misinformation system..."

All. Of. This.

In re: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

The average American is starting to really feel the economic costs of tariffs, and of the shutdown. Not sure any messaging is going to work against that…

Affordability will be dominant theme in politics over the next year.

At least he didn’t bolt like RFK Jr. did? The bar is so low.

Let’s not forget how instrumental Nancy Pelosi was in passing the ACA. Thank you for your service!

[Now in 2 parts]

—Prop 50 wins
—VA Dems flip Gov, LG, AG
—Dems flip ≈13 seats in VA House
—Dems defend NJ-Gov + Assembly
—Dems win NJ+VA trifectas
—Mamdani wins
—PA Dems win supreme court
