John Lewis, 2018: We are going forward. When the state of Georgia becomes blue, along with the state of Texas, they will not be able to hold us down. It’s going to happen.

This is an important conversation we need to have about the Democratic Party in the Deep South. I’m old enough to remember when Alabama was an all democratic state and have said for multiple cycles that the state could be flipped within investment. Doug Jones may not have won his race, but he demonstrated that principle. His race & others would have been winnable with better races; they were margin of error losses. Democrats need to stop looking at each election as its own thang and start building for the longer term.
At some point, we have to talk about @CookPolitical and other “prognosticators” who had me and other southern candidates labeled as solid R for much of the campaign cycle. They made it much more difficult to fundraise and are part of the reason the South has been neglected for so long.
They’re only a reflection of the past and mysteriously avoid any accountability when they’re wrong. One of their “analysts” was extremely condescending to me (not Jessica) when I tried to make my pitch for why they were wrong about my rating like he knew something about MS politics when he’s never been to the Sip. This attitude hurt Jaime Davis & others so much.

Mississippi’s young people have been a huge part of this campaign from day one. I’ve seen how much they care about their home state and how determined they are to build a better future for it.
I’m grateful to every young Mississippian who believed in us, showed up and made their voices heard. THANK YOU for helping show the country Mississippi Matters!

Several figures here aren’t federal results or NY-specific. The $472B combines US wide pledges: Micron's $250B is nationwide (NY site $100B) Anthropic's $50B covers TX and NY. The 48% murder drop is from NY's state run GIVE program (28 departments, Jan – May 2026).

Can you identify these two pioneers?
One came to India to improve farming and came to regard local farmers as teachers.
Another questioned plowing, fertilizing and weeding.

A very exciting conservation win in Australia! 🦜
Three ecologically and culturally significant properties in northern Queensland totaling nearly 396,000 hectares — more than three times the size of Hong Kong — have been acquired by the Queensland Government, supported by TNC and our philanthropic partners!
“The properties provide habitat for several threatened species, including the vulnerable Carpentarian Grasswren, Grey Falcon and the endangered Golden-shouldered Parrot, along with numerous other plants and animals that remain poorly documented,” said Mike Roache, TNC’s Protected Landscapes Director in Australia.

I love my Jewish and Muslim neighbors, and I understand the pain and fear they feel, but for me, the most important issue in this election is restoring the Senate as a check on a dangerously corrupt president. That’s why I am supporting Abdul El-Sayed.

The election is two days out. Let's stay focused on what matters: Winning. Bypass all the distractions. We can sort it out later. We need to win by margins big enough that they can't be challenged. Let's turn out the vote.

Rest easy, Captain. We have the helm. ✨
This is Webb’s look at Westerlund 1, a super star cluster. Because our galaxy is past its peak of star formation, and because stars live relatively short lives, only a few of these clusters exist to give us clues to that past era.
ALT Image description: A quote by Captain Jean-Luc Picard, played by Patrick Stewart. "I've come to believe that the stars have always been in my favor." - Jean-Luc Picard. The image shows a dense cluster of bright stars, each with six large and two small diffraction spikes, due to the telescope’s optics. They have a variety of sizes depending on their brightness and distance from us in the cluster, and different colors reflecting different types of star. Patches of billowing red gas can be seen in and around the cluster, lit up by the stars. Small stars in the cluster blend into a background of distant stars and galaxies on black.
