Two decades ago the Chicks got in trouble for saying at a concert that they were ashamed George W. Bush was from Texas, and now they've got a contender for Texas's Senate seat saying at a concert how proud he is they're from Texas.

omg The Chicks just brought out James Talarico on stage 👀

NEW: A new USPS policy will eliminate evening mail pickups from select post offices across the country — a change that will eventually slow pick-up and delivery times for around 70% of zip codes in the U.S. We mapped those zip codes to help you figure out whether your mail ballot could be affected👇

Because of the Texas state government's error, Texas "counties are now dealing with nearly a year of backlogged voter registration tasks to process. They could include new registrations or simply updates to voters’ existing records, like a change in address..." www.votebeat.org/texas/2026/0...

The most popular likely 2028 presidential candidate among Democratic voters is an openly gay man, Pete Buttigieg, and in a new poll only Barack Obama scored higher. He isn't ruling anything out. Asked in Iowa whether he'd rule out a 2028 run, he said: "Nope!" #PeteButtigieg #USDemocracy #Pete2028

Shoot this into my veins! What struck me as a Michigander, is that MAGA is going after Talarico in the same way they're attacking Abdul El Sayed. These 2 Democrats differ in faith, zip, and ethnicity, but their message and motives are the same: Government must work for The People again! 💙

She was there. Unlike that narcissistic, bloated, spray-tanned piece of excrement, she was actually there: Showing empathy. Transcending party. Helping. Leading. No AI slop. No asinine stories. No bullshit. Never forget...

A January 6 rioters who filmed himself drinking Fireball in Nancy Pelosi's office visited another government office this week: Todd Blanche's. It sure doesn't sound like the payout fund for insurrectionists is dead.

We didn’t have a problem with elections. He IS the problem with elections, by design, bc that’s what he wants to be. He’s trying to spoil elections so he can create chaos and steal power, just like he tried to do before. He’s a criminal menace, and the Republican party is a criminal syndicate.

This is pretty fucking wild. I had assumed in a worst case scenario he would target blue zip codes and toss ballots based on technicalities but this is even worse than I imagined.

Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.

Update: Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear is calling on Sen. Mitch McConnell to “directly and verbally address the people of Kentucky and provide proof of your capacity to serve, or resign.” Thank you, Governor Beshear!

If Obama Had Done What Trump Just Did on Iran, He’d Be Crucified — The United States just unambiguously lost a war that it started for no good reason. A sane country would remove the imbecile who did this immediately.

Since I did do my PhD in cyanobacteria growth and treatment optimization modeling AND work in the water treatment industry, I’m gonna share my theory as to what’s happening here and how to fix it. People are focusing on the painted bottom of the pool increasing residual heat, and while that 1/19

RIP Mark Rothko. You would have loved how the hydrogen peroxide bleach is only turning the Reflecting Pool blue around the perimeter

The UFC clearly rigged their main fight so the Trump family could have fun betting on it.

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

Bill Cassidy, conceding defeat, throws shade at Donald Trump: “When you participate in democracy, sometimes it doesn’t turn out the way you want it to. But you don’t pout. You don’t whine. You don’t claim the election was stolen.” His crowd immediately gets the reference.

It's a huge problem to live on $174,000.00 a year and get free food, medical and a housing allowance. It must be difficult. You obviously have a house in your district. And you get a housing allowance. Insider trading is illegal. Stop making excuses. #USDemocracy

Babies who don’t get the vitamin K shot are 81 times more likely to develop severe bleeding. In many cases, oxygen can’t reach their brains and blood pools around their skulls. Yet driven by misinformation, more parents are refusing the injection.

For the last time: if you are attending the Correspondents Dinner and you are not planning to actively protest the presence of Trump and his henchmen (who want you dead) and yet you claim to be a journalist and a patriotic American.. You are neither a journalist nor an American STAND FOR SOMETHING
