I'm in an Airbnb, typing this in the dark, because the bedside lamp is only decorative. It's green and fluffy with feathers, which I guess matters more than actually providing light. The cord and plug go nowhere. Not a single outlet to be found.

Highly alarming:
"1/No precedent to changing election rules after election
2/Griffin hasn’t found single example of ineligible voting
3/Only challenging absentee/early votes + ballots in D counties
4/Only challenging votes in his race (not Trump's)
5/ Two recounts already affirmed Riggs victory"

GOP court decision overturning Democratic victory in North Carolina Supreme Court race is 5 alarm fire for democracy. It’s January 6 without the insurrection. Make no mistake, if GOP succeeds in stealing election in NC, they’ll use that playbook everywhere www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Republicans are stealing a North Carolina judicial race. They won't stop there.

It’s not deporting, if you’re sending citizens to another country. It’s human trafficking. In this case, it’s also slave labor. You’re talking about an administration selling US citizens into slave labor.
Leavitt confirmed that the WH is working on deporting US citizens to El Salvador

At this point, you can’t convince me they aren’t manipulating the market.
As soon as the indexes started peaking today, the White House started talking about tariffs on China, and everything is in the red again.

Elon Musk's PACs have spent over $13M backing Trump loyalist Brad Schimel in Wisconsin's Supreme Court race.
If Schimel wins, the court could uphold a total abortion ban, attacks on unions, and gerrymandered maps — and change state law to benefit Tesla.
Follow the money.

I think what is making everyone so angry isn’t just the cowardice of Senate Democrats, it’s their cowardice in comparison to the random normal person who runs for school board to oust a Moms for Liberty freak

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ?
They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses.
That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue.

I’m headed to a corn and soybean farm in Cannon Falls to hear about the impact of Trump’s tariffs on Minnesota farmers.
Farming is a tough job, and it certainly isn’t made any easier by two out-of-touch billionaires cutting off economic opportunities.
