The Dem firm TargetSmart looked at early voting in the 229 counties that are currently reporting it. Latinos are nearly 8% of early vote. Nearly 112,000 have voted early, more than 2024 in raw votes. Check out the details here: newrepublic.com/article/2164...

If Dems Win, Incribe This Chart on Trump-MAGA’s Political Gravestone
A new analysis by a Democratic data firm shows that Latino turnout in early voting is outpacing 2024—a presidential year. That could be a big problem for Trump and the GOP.

Remarkable: As of now, Latino early vote is outpacing where it was at same time in 2024 in both percentages of vote share and in RAW VOTE TOTALS. That's big. Presidential turnout is usually higher than midterms. I obtained new analysis from Dem firm TargetSmart: newrepublic.com/article/2164...

Do Trump aides take three days to debate whether he means to destroy blue cities or prevent Iran from doing so, too? I mean, he literally did set out to destroy Los Angeles. He used paramilitaries, not nukes. But he did set out to destroy it.

Donald Trump has always been coarse. It's just one of many reasons he was rejected by Manhattan's Upper East Side society, dismissed as a vulgar, unpolished loudmouth from Queens. He was pitiably stung by their rebuff. And resents his MAGA followers for not being able to confer societal pedigree.

Pete is lost in terms of modern war. I use the example of this outgunned Ukrainian army officer who successfully terrorized a Russian unit for weeks because she "did the math." At the time, someone commented, "yeah, in combat, 'I did the math' beats 'I can do 100 pushups' every time."
Ukrainian female soldier: Okay, I said the idea is this: There is enough time to empty one full can of 32 grenades and be gone by the time the return mortar fire reaches us. I did the math.
