With Dems all but certain to prevail in Mississippi and Alaska, we're most likely looking at a 56D-44R Senate and a ~260D-175R House, which would be Dems' largest House majority since 1992.

Why I’d urge caution on declaring the Trump era over. The second term project hasn’t just been about retribution, but also unchecked presidential power — with Miller and Project 2025 its architects.
They didn’t really try and sell their agenda to the public. They tried to gerrymander a win before voting started. And they worked hard to empower the executive, and to minimize the role of Congress/Courts altogether.
So in a weird, undemocratic way, the WH has been building to this moment for two years.

SCOOP: The Trump administration is considering an executive order that would list some nonprofit organizations as having terrorist ties, a move that would immediately suspend their tax-exempt status and cripple their operations.
Officials are reviewing an arcane law that would allow President Trump to use an untested part of the tax code and write an executive order declaring groups linked to terrorism. Those groups would then automatically lose their coveted tax-exempt status.

Susie Wiles submitted her resignation last night. President Trump was angry with her this week following the GOP wipeout Tuesday night.

Useful clue about how El-Sayed and his team are strategizing: long career, knows federal levers of power & respected by both Dem + DC establishment and the progressive wave, including those seeking a reckoning over Gaza.

this is why I love working at @VanityFair
yesterday, I saw half our staff clustered around our fashion correspondent's desk poring over this photo. As José puts it, "The image has several discrepancies. The style and make of the Chanel Flap bag is inconsistent with others the brand has sold, and the Valentino shoes in question appear askew in proportion; their straps have several punched holes that the authentic Valentino style does not."
AI image detectors confirmed that yes, Olivia Reingold used an AI-generated image to make her point, without a drop of disclosure. Wild!!!!
