Yeah sex is great but have you ever heard someone tell Steve Bannon that exit polls show that young men are evenly split between Dems and Republicans and he goes silent and then says, in a very soft voice: "that can't be right"

this would’ve been a perfect gay halloween costume and it’s actually cruel of her to pull a stunt like this after the holiday
NEW: We just spoke exclusively with Congresswoman Haley Stevens at a polling place in Birmingham Michigan as she came to cast her ballot for Republican Mike Rogers. She told us she’s here to vote with her mother and that she still believes Democrats will win the majority, “It's the people's day. And I told this to our next speaker of the house, Hakeem Jeffries: It's Majority Makers Day.” I asked if given the backlash she’s receiving from her Rogers endorsement, whether she feels it was worth it and she told me “Absolutely. Voting is always worth it, right?” @NewsNation

If you’re being outwoked on this by a pastor running in fucking Kansas maybe it’s time to stop and reflect how your campaign got here
#KansasSenate Adam Hamilton on transgender rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself.” “I’m gonna love the trans person as well as the straight person, male or female. We have to do better than picking on small groups. What’s happened is we’ve turned a group of people into a campaign issue because it polls well.”

Fully on board with Ashley Etienne on the opening for Dems to run against the GOP culture of corruption again. From Epstein, where @RoKhanna is doing great work, to stripping health care and jacking up utility rates to cut taxes for billionaires, corruption is the core of it all.

WATCH: #OH08 constituents shout "liar" at Warren Davidson as he tries to sell them on his vote to give tax breaks to billionaires while cutting BILLIONS from Medicaid and SNAP. "The One Big Beautiful Bill is a imperfect bill, but it is beautiful."

I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do. Just shut up. Stop peddling bullshit. You should be fired.

BREAKING: Doug LaMalfa seems disinterested as he faces more backlash from his #CA01 constituents. When asked about his support for Trump amid sexual assault allegations, felonies, and the Epstein list, he checked his watch.

Lock in, folks. This fight is about accountability— for historic cuts to Medicaid and SNAP, higher costs because of reckless tariffs, and blatant corruption enriching a president and his donors at the expense of working people.
Trump’s election rigging comes to an end now. California won’t stand by and watch Trump burn it all down — we are calling a special election to redraw our Congressional maps and defend fair representation. This is a five alarm fire for Democracy. Vote YES November 4.

close enough, welcome back franz kafka.
White House @PressSec tells reporters that Pell Grants, Title I funding, student loans and special-needs funding will for now still be administered by the Department of Education even with Trump’s executive order that seeks to dismantle the dept.
