isn't she under fire for being part of the funding shell game involving the Governor's wife, where they stole money for kids to dump into DJT and DeSantis vanity projects? Wonder is the blowback from that coupled with Ms Nixon being bereft of fucks is making it closer than expected.

if this trend keeps up, OMG Montana - Senate Arkansas - Senate Alabama - Senate plus/minus another 10-15 Congressional seats I don't think we'll get to OMG just yet but pretty sure we're in officially worried territory right now. fix me where I am wrong, if you have insight, ty

Ben, as I check multiple feeds from other granular sources like yourself, I'm seeing the following and hope you can help confirm or deny some of this... The GOP is desperately sticking fingers in the dike in the following Texas - Senate Texas - Governor Kansas - Senate Iowa - Senate

noting again that VA CD01 is getting love here. The last polling I saw from Taylor's website had her up +4 on 10/1/26. Wittman is a 100% faceless GOP tool. Trump policies have hammered people here (lots of federal furloughed peeps) and Wittman has not had a Town Hall since 2019.

Ben it seems like the GOP is learning the lesson about the scorpion on its back. They were all happy when Trump was laying waste to the rest of America without realizing he was hollowing out their party as well. They deserve every bit of this, I imagine all they left is being Billionaire proxies.

y'know Cheryl, I think we've seen enough of this model to have the NYT replaced with an AI bot, I mean really, David Brooks... something that only he can generate? think of the money saved, the salaries and stock options that don't need to be honored. Just have them scrape the last 20 years.....

It's getting closer to election day and it's absolutely time to update this... Rob Wittman votes with Trump 100% of the time.... everything that Trump does, Wittman has signed off on it.... ICE, Iran, the refusal to validate the results of 2020, tariffs, ballroom, Ukraine... all of it.

we have a small dog pack, we have one tubby dog and two older but well maintained healthy dogs. She runs into a room, starts barking, the other dogs come to find out what she's barking about, then she goes and eats their food while they investigate. Tubby, yet smart.....

Trump finds women expendable for sure, although I wonder if she would have lasted longer if he was getting a taste from her grift. Namely, Trump tends to keep people who feed him financially a lot longer than those who share his ideology. Political mafioso writ large.

Trump has been the primary benefactor of the GOP long game controlling SCOTUS to give him the type of political cover any petty tyrant would adore. They greenlit every Constitutional abuse and bs interpretation to their preferred outcome. The idea that the judiciary now is nonpartisan is a fantasy

and to be fair, I think some Minnesotans have forgotten it as well. I don't know if she comes up in ads these days but this lone wolf shit starts to wear thin where guys who kill Dem pols are miraculously detained and guys that shoot at GOP candidates end up dead, so that no questions get asked.

Lets hope that they're too chickenshit to allow it to come to pass.. Yet we know that they've planted a whole field of seeds to do this and they're just hoping any number of them grow. I loathe these guys so much. kind of makes you think that the whole 2nd amendment things is to allow for this...

ty for the kind observation. It's kind of telling that the disdain that we on the left hold for them doesn't come close to how those who use them feel about them, they don't even see them as people, just pawns to be used.

ahhh, the old... "we hoped that you wouldn't notice gambit" when people were warned to follow up and actually did. The question will be, will the Texas courts hold their collective feet to the fire and MAKE THEM register them all right fucking now.

and where this shit ends up is that companies just see me as a number instead of as a person and in reality, that interconnectivity shit is cool in theory, in practice, not so much. So maybe we can just you know.... fucking stop with all this shit or at least give us the chance to say... no.

Shouldn't be too much to ask right? Not everything has to be connected, my fridge, washing machine and air conditioner do not need to be attached to my watch or to google or even amazon. why? because for very little benefit, all of these companies know way too fucking much about me.

complete vibe post... I think the GOP is in trouble, by that, the usual hard core unreachable are still... unreachable for the most part. What I do believe is that the squishy middle (independents) have thrown in the towel and can't justify voting for the GOP yet again.

she's certainly more badass than the majority of the GOP. She's drawing all the lightning, I just hope these assholes don't kill her because they're not exactly above THAT kind of behavior. Figuring they're hoping to incite a malleable expendable to do it for them.

I am tired of judges being outraged by 47 Admin and DOJ actions in court. Time to stop bitching and time to start jailing them. You want your lawyer out of jail, produce the documents, otherwise I will send Marshalls up the food chain to arrest everyone in the chain of responsibility.

Two debating styles: 1. El-Sayed. Acts like a skilled boxer as he throws jabs early and often at his opponent until they are weakened and then opens it up. 2. Ossoff. Pulls the sink from the green room in the back and starts beating his opponent with it right away. Does not stop until its over.

for me JS the key word here is creative, anything that AI "creates" is derivative of previously scraped works. Hence, it's NOT creative at all. AI as a tool to find unsuspected linkage in DNA datasets, that's fine, masquerading as art, that's a fuck you, strong letter to follow zone.

agreed, that blend of irredeemable spawn and corrupt pragmatic parents was a nice blend. Then again, Leverage has shown us (and we see it everyday) that is there's one thing that is in ample supply here in current times, is a lengthy line of wannabe tyrants and villains.

I have to admit, liberal/anti-fascist calling the corrupt fascists to account porn is kind of cathartic viewing. You think that the people paying attention to current events might just be tapping into this with the popularity of Reacher and Neagley and the current run of Statham films.
