"Trump voters urge him to tone down the rhetoric and focus more on domestic issues, especially clearer pathways to legal status for law-abiding immigrants", proving they unaccountably had no clue who they were voting for.

Tuberculosis has been circulating in ICE prisons for months. I wrote it back in August and there is no doubt in my mind that there are way more outbreaks than we're aware of. We have to get people out of these camps.

Ossoff: We were told that MAGA was for working-class Americans. But this is a government of, by, and for the ultra-rich. It’s the wealthiest Cabinet ever. This is the Epstein class. They are the elites they pretend to hate.

TrumpRx doesn't offer the cheapest option. For the 85% with insurance, they typically get a better deal using the coverage they already have.
Example: those with insurance pay $20/mo for Xeljanz, an arthritis drug; but TrumpRx customers pay more than $1,500.

Across Senate District 9, VoteHub estimated that Taylor Rehmet captured about 79% of the Hispanic vote — a 26-point improvement on the 53% that went for Democrat Kamala Harris in 2024.
See how Latinos helped Texas Democrats win Senate District 9
Democrat Taylor Rehmet’s stunning upset victory is explained in part by the massive swing by Latino voters toward his campaign compared to other Democrats in recent elections.

Heartbreaking. Renee Good's family is right. What happened to her was violent, unnecessary, and it must lead to change. The majority of people in this country do not support armed federal agents acting like they are above the law. Enough is enough.

So instead of bringing people to the U.S., where they would pay U.S. taxes, Google will just hire the same people in India, where they will pay Indian taxes.

Trump has finally delivered the Jade Helm presidency the far right warned of in 2015: a techno-authoritarian assault on the White House’s enemies. Only now instead of raising an alarm over a hoax, they’re cheering the real thing.

Does seem odd that we know the names of Pretti’s killers but not Good’s …
Just guessing: I have an inkling that the CBP agents who murdered Alex Pretti were leaked by the feds *precisely* because they're hispanic so OK to throw under the bus per Miller and Noem.

Let's ask the question: How many times do the following people show up being named in the Epstein Files:

President Joe Biden: 0
President Barack Obama: 0
MN Governor Tim Walz: 0

President Donald Trump: 4,500

Does any Republican not see the problem?

Republicans redistricted to win five new seats in Texas. All five are projected to be between R+4 and R+8. To achieve this, they diluted their advantage in other districts.

A 15-point swing in November wipes out Republican control of the state. A 30-point swing erases Republicans in Texas entirely.
Thirty point swing to Democrats deep in the heart of Texas.
Hard to overstate how big a deal a Rehmet win would be. Tarrant County is the epicenter of Christian nationalism in Texas, an incubator for far-right policies, and nexus of billionaire Tim Dunn's network, which is riding hard for Wambsganss. Rehmet almost entirely funded by donations of $100 or less

Wow, buckle up.

The early vote just came in Tarrant County, and Democrat Taylor Rehmet is up 56% to 44% in the special election for a Texas state Senate seat.

This is a seat that went for Trump by 17%. This would be a huge upset.

This is already 45K votes.
