She doesn't even say those dead people were necessarily receiving benefits. It's the same shit Elon Musk tried to pull with Social Security. 3 million people die in the U.S. every year.
She says, "we found almost 200,000 dead people," but doesn't finish the sentence with "...receiving benefits."

Dem gains in this week's elections erased the inroads Trump made with non-white, young, and low-income voters in 2024. In fact, the R-to-D shift from 24 to 25 is double Trump's gains from 20-24. Claims of a GOP political realignment have been highly exaggerated

I have ended relationships with coworkers, friends, and family who are MAGA.
It's not because I don't want "hard conversations."
It's because I choose not to interact with people who have values that I abhor. MAGA folks are selfish, racist, stupid or a combination of all 3

One of the really striking things here is that Roberts, at least, used to evince some concern for preserving the legitimacy and reputation of the Court, and that just seems to have gone out the window.

If it's true that RealClearPolitics removed their polling average of the VA Attorney General race because it was wrong, that should really be the nail in the coffin for them. It's GOP polling propaganda that hasn't been rigorous or transparent in a long time (www.gelliottmorris.com/p/the-pollin...)

EXCLUSIVE: After Trump took over the Kennedy Center in Feb, he vowed to make it "hot" again. So, how's it doing? @jeremybmerrill.com and I used data from the center's ticketing website to find out. Ticket sales are lowest they've been since the pandemic.

Democrats don't talk about these things, but the right-wing ecosystem makes up events and stories and repeats them over and over with lies saying that is what Democrats are doing.

The problem, again, is elected Dems & candidates DON'T actually spend very much time at all talking about these things. Right-wing media does. And Dems ultimately have no control over what right-wing media is going to talk about.
Duh. Those of us on the ground last year actually speaking with middle class/working class voters and who heard from these voters every single day the same - “Trump is an asshole, but Democrats are out of touch” - could’ve saved my new political party a lot of time & money producing this “report.”👇
