Even in an era when voters are as ill-informed as they have ever been, it's pretty brazen to campaign as the "common sense" candidate when you're a member of the party that has done [gestures wildly at everything that has happened in the last two years].
The political attack ads in Michigan are completely unhinged, yet I am encouraged by what feels like momentum behind progressive candidates. Weirdly, white men campaigning as "common sense," and calling progressive candidates, "radical," and, "scary," and, "dangerous," isn't resonating very well.

Very recently, SCOTUS denied motions in which the potential harm was feared. It was not a "victory" or a "defeat" but was, in fact, a, "Come back when the harm has occurred." This should not be handled any differently, mere weeks later, by the same court. There is no standing.
Breaking news: The Justice Department has moved to preemptively block certification of the results of Alaska’s Senate race if Republican incumbent Sen. Dan S. Sullivan loses his tight race against Democrat Mary Peltola next month.

I recently posted about how our representatives are not accessible to us, and then I see this: @wewill2026.bsky.social is casually sitting on a corner of MSU's campus, meeting people and answering their questions. THIS IS THE KIND OF ACCESSBILITY WE SHOULD ALL HAVE FROM OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS!!

For people outside the US, I feel this needs to be said: We do not have access to our representatives. To be in a room small enough for heckling to be effective is an incredibly rare situation. If more US Reps and Senators were forced to answer to their constituents, you'd see a LOT more of this.
WATCH: Andy Harris has a crash out after his constituents laugh at him for trying to blame higher gas prices on... Democrats. "You are rude!" #MD01
