I should really have fit into this post that this county voted for Trump.
NEW: Dems easily flipped the sheriff's office in Pennsylvania's Bucks County, a big swing county in the Philly suburbs.

So? The incumbent GOP sheriff had contracted with ICE. His Dem challenger promised to end the contract.

Now he wants other swing-state Dems to look at his victory as a lesson:
Voters Ousted This Pennsylvania Sheriff After He Signed Up to Collaborate With ICE - Bolts
A populous, swing county replaced its GOP sheriff on Tuesday after months of controversy over his joining ICE’s 287(g) program. The Democratic winner promises he’ll end the contract.

Dan knows more about how Congress works than anyone I know, so this is an interesting thread.
Some thoughts on the CR/minibus.

1 The Dems negotiating with Rs were not freelancing. They coordinated with Sen Schumer. A few were ready to give in on day one, others worked to maximize appropriations wins.

Those voting for the 'deal' are the ones furthest away from electoral consequences.

This hidden provision is so crooked and selfish, it doesn't even apply to US Representatives. Just US Senators.

Conservatives were trying to flip Spokane in 2023, & failed. They were hoping to flip Spokane in 2025, but instead the Dem-affiliated side appear to have gained ground.
The Progressive challenger just defeated the Republican incumbent to swing the Spokane City Council to a 6-1 Supermajority!

Kudos to @lastweektonight.com for covering felony murder, an incredibly racist law used to charge people for murder when cops kill someone using "look what you made me do!" abuser logic. Abolish it.
