Democrats will focus on the House and Senate, but to me, the state legislatures are equally important. Democrats lost an entire generation of new leaders when they got wiped out in the state legislatures in 2010 and again in 2014. The Democrats need to build the next generation in the state leg. 1/3
Marist finds Democrats up 55/41 on the generic ballot: maristpoll.marist.edu/polls/a-look...
That may be a factor of an enthusiasm gap mixed with a serving of outlier, but also it’s not a shocker in light of the sheer extent of Democrats’ sweeping wins in November.

Looks as if Trump is saying no Democrat will be allowed to win another national election—and he will use the FBI, the DOJ, and the CIA to make sure of that. This is a full-scale attack on American democracy, and every Republican, CEO, and conservative mouthpiece who doesn't object is complicit.
Trump: "We can never let what happened in the 2020 election happen again. We just can't let that happen. I know Kash is working on it, everybody is working on it. And certainly Tulsi is working on it. We can't let that happen again to our country."

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

Having now observed the Hegseth and Trump speeches, I'd describe their approach as "soft purge." Both made references to making things uncomfortable for those not aligned with their worldview. Creates a basis for gradual firings and resignations going forward.
