It is Jan 2027, Senate Minority Leader Thune takes the senate floor and delivers an impassioned speech about the need to overturn citizens united, lol

I’m grateful to President @barackobama.bsky.social for his support. I hear it in every county I visit: costs keep going up, families are worried about their healthcare and their hospitals, and folks feel like Washington stopped listening a long time ago. We're going to change that on November 3rd.

My take here is that he is effective because he had a nonpolitician background where his job was to distill complex and intangible problems so average person could digest them. He effectively talks like a documentary narrator, not a politician/dr/lawyer/whatever other path normally leads to congress

Talarico dodged a question, Paxton subpoenaed hospitals in different time zones for youth medical records, they're obviously not the same.

I think this is ultimately correct. AES‘s loss would be used as a cudgel against progressive candidates going forward, ESPECIALLY against an AOC 2028 campaign

The “problem” with this outcome is that then ‘28 becomes about stopping AOC from governing with a filibuster proof senate majority. And that is going to melt a lot of GOP (and moderate dem) brains.

“But Ron Davis’ recent sour-grapes email to his supporters about the Stranger—in which he even seems to take issue with the fact that they make endorsements— says more about him than about the paper“ Yes! Exactly! People on here (and probably Davis himself!) felt entitled to that endorsement.

I feel like this is mostly correct, though my gut says MISen is Lean D, OHSen is a toss up, and FLSen is likely R solely because my mind cannot comprehend MSSen being more competitive than Florida.

My unpopular (IRL) opinion is that there was little to nothing Wilson could do around the Seattle Center shootings. It was over in a short time, not an ongoing disaster that needed management. As Erica points out further down, it was a police matter that was bungled by Barnes

She is also not my first pick, but I agree with this sentiment. I think there is a prevailing attitude on here that she won’t be a problem but in my view the nomination is hers to lose in ‘28.

Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America.  He embodies the broken system we’re running against. It’s time to come together: The People vs. Ken Paxton

My answer to this is that because, until fairly recently, we had a fairly shared information environment. Now we all have our own curated feeds that feed us information that may reinforce our own narratives. “Vibes” imo is just shorthand for the algorithm.

People keep saying "Getting arrested is bad, actually" and while I'd certainly prefer not to be, the administration's entire strategy is built around the idea that I will live in fear of it, and shape my behavior to avoid it, and cry in shame if I am. That is how THEY CONTROL YOU.
