The “White House Press Secretary, 12-16 October 2026” graphic from the BBC is taking me out.
Hilarious exchange between Victoria Derbyshire and Katie Zacharia who was White House Press Secretary for 4 days last month.
Zacharia doesn’t want to answer a question from Victoria and becomes fixated on the result in Alaska becoming more irate as VD keeps her cool.

People are learning about population density this week. Nebraska’s sitting governor was re-elected by just 8 points despite winning 90 of 93 counties. The reason it was single digits? He lost all three of the largest counties in the state. 56% of all Nebraskans live there.

POV: you’re driving coast to coast and you have to pass through 40 miles of Republican governance
Fitting for this to happen on the sixth anniversary of Four Seasons Total Landscaping. @TotalSeasons

Yes, the free speech absolutists certainly figured out why they lost on Tuesday.
The Atlantic: New White House Chief of Staff Stephen Miller is open to jailing journalists to get them to give up their sources.

Ron DeSantis is most excited for the fact that he’s termed out and Byron Donalds will be the one stuck with the fallout.
Amendment 3 results re: first step for property tax elimination. Only 3 counties — Gadsden, Leon and Alachua (three most liberal counties) — had a majority vote against it. Rural counties where opponents were trying to scare people against it voted overwhelmingly in favor. 66% in Miami-Dade voted in favor, and large counties including Hillsborough, Palm Beach and Lee all hit 60% or more.
Big win for taxpayers!

To understand just how hard taking back the Senate is for Republicans in 2028. Their *easiest path* to doing so is:
-Flip Ohio, Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, AND Pennsylvania.
-All while holding all *their* most vulnerable seats. Wisconsin, North Carolina, they have to seriously worry about Alaska, Iowa, and Kansas now too.
-And after all that, they would STILL be one seat short. They'd have to win at least one state that has *never* voted for Trump. New Hampshire, Colorado, or Illinois (lol) are probably their only options.
-Oh, and if Dems win the presidency, they have to flip *two* of those three.

FACT CHECK: Did Nebraska experience a ‘red wave’ in the 2026 Midterm Election?

Jessica: It boggles my mind that Republicans would look at the outcome from Tuesday night and think, you know who needs a bigger job? Stephen Miller.
Texas is blue. Ted Cruz is sitting there by himself wondering if anyone will ever sit at a lunch table with him again.
If you want to win elections again, I think this is one of the dumbest things you could do

I’m getting the feeling that many Republican leaders are sick of the election denier schtick and the chuds that promote it, and want to move on from it.
Mississippi Republican Party Chair @MikeHurstMS on whether he would accept a win by Sen. candidate Scott Colom (D): "There is no election-denying going on here. If the laws are followed and the voters spoke, that is it and Mississippi Republicans will accept that."

If one viral clip summed up voter vibes this year it was this one.

Stop peddling this bullshit. The reason the country rejected Republicans is in part due to their exhaustion with people like you. The economy was the main driver but the drama and grift and chaos of performative MAGA was also rejected in whole.
No way in hell.
Iowa did not vote for communism because of gas prices (that were the same or less than under previous admin) or a war to end a nuclear threat (w/ no boots on the ground).
I know Iowa.
Iowa raised me.
Iowa educated me.
The math isn’t mathing here.
Let’s audit this election to make sure the results are honest before we hand over the Hawkeye state and America to Communists.
Do not certify until you VERIFY the vote.

That map likely is using the senate race (which Dan Osborn did worse then 2024 + Ricketts outran the environment)
Nebraska Gov. Jim Pillen margin of victory in 2026: 8 points
Pillen margin of victory in 2022: 23 points.

For years, my dad battled Parkinson’s disease. On Election Night, I got to tell him, “Pop, we won.”
This morning, he passed away.
A part of me believes he held on just long enough to see his son make it to Congress.
He won’t be there when I’m sworn in. But I know he’ll be standing right beside me.
Rest easy, Daddy. I’ll take it from here. These next two years are for you ❤️
It’s going to be closer to 50 seats when all is said and done. Regardless, Dems started with a much higher floor than Republicans did in those previous cycles you referenced. Dems are on track to finish with around 260. Republicans won 242 seats in 2010 and 230 seats in 1994.
Clinton lost 54 seats in the 1994 midterm election.
Obama lost 63 seats in the 2010 midterm election.
Trump just lost 41 seats in the 2026 midterm election.
It’s not exactly the historic event you believe it to be.
