Trump: In Texas, Talafreako...
@JamesTalarico: That’s Senator Talafreako. Hi America, I’m James Talarico, the guy who's been texting you every day asking for $5.
Trump: In this economy, who can blame you?
Talarico: But I think, Mr. President, if we can work together, we can make life better for everyday Americans. It's clear people want something new. They want something different. I'm talking, of course, about SNL's cold opens. How many of these Trump freezes are they gonna do?
Trump: Infinity.
Talarico: Well, in that case, there's only one thing left to say. Live from New York, it’s Saturday night!

The end to GOP dominance in Texas will likely have major implications for K-12 education policies, including the future of school vouchers and state takeovers. bit.ly/3V7VK7d

Voters 18 to 29 went from around D+4 in 2024 to around D+50 this year. Voters 65 and older barely moved.
Votebeat’s @baseballot tells DDHQ’s @geoffreyvs why that’s “a red flag for both parties”: these are voters who aren’t loyal to either one.

Look at the prediction market from July…
Everyone assumed Abbott was a safe incumbent…
Paxton losing is one thing, but taking down Abbott was very unexpected.
The Hinojosa campaign should be very proud of what they accomplished.
Abbott outspent them by a ton and they still kicked his ass.

ABBOTT HASN'T EVEN LEFT OFFICE.
Texas public education is already shifting:
• Houston ISD's state-appointed board prepares to meet elected trustees.
• Gov.-elect Hinojosa is interviewing replacements for Education Commissioner Mike Morath.
• Fort Worth ISD anticipates possible changes to its state-appointed leadership.
• EIGHT Texas school districts are currently under state takeover.
It's November 7.

On election night, @JDVance’s phone buzzed.
A confidant texted with uncomfortable advice: perhaps he should consider sitting out 2028.
Some allies now tell the VP they no longer believe any Republican can win a presidential election in two years.

Governor-elect Gina Hinojosa became the first Latina woman elected statewide in Texas history. Hinojosa and Senator-elect James Talarico were part of the wave of Democrats who swept into office on Election Night.
Their victories — and so many others — were powered by Hispanic voters. @AdrianaDiaz has more.

Jennifer Welch represents the very worst of the online left influencers and I cannot take seriously anyone who does not see that she has horrible judgment and horrible character.

If there's one shift that sums up 2026, it's Kansas's Golden Triangle of meatpacking (Liberal, Dodge City, Garden City, 61% Hispanic), focus of sweeping ICE operations in September:
2024: Trump 15,915 (68%), Harris 7,240 (31%)
2026: Marshall 9,537 (46%), Hamilton 10,411 (51%)

Six House members accused of sexual misconduct or domestic abuse have now lost their seats.
Two resigned. One opted not to run again. Another was defeated in his primary. And, on Tuesday, two more lost their bids for reelection. wapo.st/4zwc4gS

Dana White “is the face of UFC and one of the most recognizable names in sports”—but after he was caught on video slapping his wife multiple times, he faced almost no consequences, @jemelehill wrote in 2023. theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv…

.@ForecasterEnten: Let's talk about Texas. Look at this.
One of the reasons James Talarico won is because of young men in Texas.
Donald Trump carried young men — those under the age of 30 — by 24 points. James Talarico won them by 34 points.
Wow. A 58 point shift that helped propel him to be the first Democratic senator elected from Texas since 1988.
