Tonight is because of the work of every volunteer, county chair, precinct leader, organizer, activist, candidate, and anyone who dared to dream that North Carolina deserved better. Welcome to a new South.

Your policy disagreements were for the Aug primary - not Nov 3rd. #AbdulForSenate
I am endorsing Mike Rogers for the United States Senate today.

It's nearly impossible to disentangle race and partisanship in the South, which is why this ruling could have such apocalyptic consequences for Black representation across the Deep South (more likely in '28 than '26).
Not a legal expert, but to my plain reading this is the passage in the ruling that seems most concerning for the future strength of Section 2, and likely why Elena Kagan was so alarmed in dissent. The key question going forward: can plaintiffs produce evidence for any current Black-majority Southern district showing that racially polarized voting exists in a way that cannot simply be explained by party affiliation?

Washington Post- @ScharSchool poll: Virginia voters have shifted sharply against data centers since 2023, with most now opposing tax breaks and building data centers in their communities. Hard to recall such a rapid shift in public opinion washingtonpost.com/business/…

COLUMN: Democrats are obsessed with the wrong Senate races, writes @jmart. Sherrod Brown and Roy Cooper aren’t driving the conversation — but their races are key to Dems’ “increasingly realistic, bordering on likely, prospects for reclaiming the Senate." politico.com/news/magazine/2…

Venezuela opposition reports the so called "capture" of Maduro was a negotiated deal between Maduro and US for an agreed exit strategy. We reported in November that this would be the case. The US bombed Venezuelan service members as part of a death theatre. #VenezuelaInvasion
Replying to @YourAnonCentral
If anything does get bombed in Venezuela it'll be a death theatre to help legitimize the deal. Venezuelans will pay the check Maduro is ready to cash.

Kiggens is next!
🚨🚨🚨 BREAKING NEWS REP. ROB BRESNAHAN (R-Pa.) has signed the House Democrats' discharge petition, which attempts to force a vote on a 3-year extension of the ACA subsidies. THE PETITION is now just one short of forcing a full House vote on a clean, three-year extension.

Punchbowl News: Senior House Republican says Speaker Mike Johnson will be “stripped of his gavel” and will “lose the majority before this term is out” + more early resignations are coming.
A “few” Republican members of the US House messaged Punchbowl News over the weekend saying that they were considering retiring in the middle of the term like Marjorie Taylor Greene did on Friday.

Would not want to be the GOP in this poll. Reflection of the following sentiments: - federal workforce DOGING - Trump disapprovals (58%) - Strength of Spanberger All pointing towards a really bad election result. What we haven’t seen is results post Kirk killing.
New Virginia poll from CNU Wason Gov Spanberger (D) 52% Earle-Sears (R) 40% Lt. Gov Hashmi (D) 48% Reid (R) 37% AG Jones (D) 48% Miyares (R) 41% House of Delegates Dem 51% GOP 43% Trump approval Disapprove 58% Approve 39% Youngkin approval Approve 48% Disapprove 42%

If Trump takes the temperature up - hard to see how it doesn’t further alienate independents and moderates. I still think it unlikely Dems manage a 2/3s majority. But it could shape up to be a 2017 moment - and galvanize broader pushback and momentum. Implications for VA 1 & 2

Not surprised. When @guzman4virginia swings, she swings hard! Bravo!
Can't sleep. You know what that means, I'm looking at the midnight campaign finance filings. Republicans got outraised in almost every single competitive district this Summer. Most stunning haul? Guzman. HD-22 | Guzman (D) $543,406 ; Lovejoy (R) $286,273

The timing is interesting- defending OBBBA and doing so in mid decade redistricting must have been too much.
MORGAN LUTTRELL, House Republican from Texas, will not seek re-election

Makes you wonder how much money sits in all these dormant accounts of dead and retired lawmakers.
your quarterly reminder that Joseph P. Kennedy II, who served in Congress from 87-99, still has $1.1 million in his re-election account.
