i think after this year there’ll be a Dem “trifecta” (as of now the legislature is fully controlled by a Dem-Rep coalition)
william’s not that old, it could be his son or grandson
iirc his brother served as a senior judge well into the 2010s

i am an american and i love everything american and what i hate most in the world is the tradition of modest republican puritanism-informed decorating typical of the white house and what i love most is the interior decorating style of an ashgabat casino

Honestly, I think Flávio fleeing to Miami would probably weaken the Bolsonaro clan more than him fighting god knows how many criminal cases he has stacked up over the years that can be taken out of the archives in Brazil.

Susan Collins' new "we're not talking about buying a cord of wood here" attack ad against Troy Jackson reminds me HEAVILY of Iowa Dem Senate candidate Bruce Braley's leaked comment in 2014 that the GOP can't be allowed to win a majority because then "a farmer from Iowa who never went to law school" would be put in charge of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
He was kind of right, Chuck Grassley ended up being a disaster for the courts. But you just don't say something like that while running to represent Iowa.
Similarly, if you're running in Maine, you don't cut an ad mocking loggers as unqualified to be in politics. Just an incredible thing for Collins to do at the 11th hour.

Self checkouts are slow, clunky and old
Manned checkouts are never manned
The staff are always depressed or rude
Stock is old, tired & from many failed acquisitions (Wilko etc)

given that you have TX-Gov at tilt Dem then i'd move KS-Gov to lean R at minimum, the KSGOP isn't exactly in Fantastic straits
with that said, i doubt that a "mere" Ossoff+8 margin would mean Gov. Rick Jackson -- given the turnout, there's only so much that split-ticket votes can do.
the thing is that Collins seems to be outright imploding -- which *might* explain how Ossoff is winning by 11 while KLB is barely ahead.
this just in: party of personal responsibility asked to own their own policy decisions, shits pants and cries
"party of personal responsibility" shits itself and cries when you ask them to stand by their own choices

If Democrats actually ran this so called "Christian moderate", every GOP ad would be exactly what they are running today and every one of these accounts would have found some excuse for voting for Paxton.
Talarico is a good man. Paxton a repugnant snake. Easiest choice ever.
Note to Democrats:
If you ran an actual Christian candidate from Texas for US Senate, and he was actually a moderate who really did want a secure border, to work across the aisle, actually supported the Second Amendment and actually wanted to protect kids from gender ideology…
I would have voted for that candidate over Paxton.
Your guy Talarico is actually just that awful. I had to hold my nose and vote Paxton.
why does he need a podcast, he’s better on short-form stuff and he’s whomping pretty much everyone there

Threatening your political enemies with "you are the in the minority, and as such we're going to put you in your proper place" and then proceeding to eat shit and lose is such a wonderful bit.
🚨 O Ministério Público de São Paulo abriu um inquérito para investigar o deputado federal eleito Lucas Pavanato por suspeita de injúria e discriminação.
A investigação foi aberta após declarações do político em entrevista à Jovem Pan, na qual ele afirmou que sua bancada representaria uma ameaça aos seus opositores e disse: “Vocês são a minoria, e como minoria a gente vai colocar vocês no devido lugar.”
