Redistricting gave Republicans a head start in the House worth roughly nine seats. What it couldn't do is make their candidates popular. Several districts redrawn to favor the GOP are now competitive. Todd Beeton breaks down where every redrawn map stands heading into midterms.

Trump and Hegseth have killed 230+ people on boats in the Caribbean and Pacific with no proof they did anything wrong, no congressional approval, no nothing. Just 2 unhinged fascists ordering our military to commit murder. Vote against all Republicans for the sake of all that is decent.

Trump is considering pre-emptively pardoning members of his administration before leaving office Legally there is no such thing as a pre-emptive pardon In order to get a pardon you must be found guilty, or at the very least say you are guilty You cannot be pardoned before that

The rush to speculate that asylum seekers are responsible for every crime in the news is a sort of opportunistic informational terrorism. Until it’s disproved it stokes fear and hatred. When it is disproved there are no adverse consequences and they know that they only have to be lucky once.
