A note of caution: never underestimate the rage of a rejected autocrat. As a historian of autocrats, I am elated by Tuesdayβs election results, but we will only see more chaos and erratic behavior.
Iβll be covering it at my Substack, Lucid.substack.com.

Study finds men penalized more than women for negative office gossip. Gossip is indirect influence & aligns with stereotypes for women.For men gossiping rather than confronting a problem violates expectations to be direct & dominant, making them look weak.scienceofmoney.org/why-officβ¦

Oh, hold up. Did you know the origin of the word *spinster* refers to a female who was so skilled at weaving that she was able to achieve financial independence all on her own??
I feel like this changes the entire plot. π³

The US House will have 102+ Democratic women and about 20 Republican women. Women will make up about 30% of seats; still far from 50% parity. 15 women won governor races, including Keisha Bottoms (1st Black woman gov) & Deb Haaland(1st Native Am woman gov).washingtonpost.com/politics/β¦

Jeffries and Schumer bear responsibility for the astonishing passivity of Congressional Democrats in the last two years. They could have organized local and state resistance efforts to rescue programs killed by DOGE and Trump, to keep scientific research alive, to organize universities, law firms, media, and corporations to resist Trump's intimidation. They could have held press conferences and posted videos every single day to call out Trump's corruption and present an alternative vision for the country. Chris Murphy did it, others did it.
But not the leaders.
We will have no presidential candidate for 18 months. The task of presenting a vision that will lead America back from the darkness will fall to these two men. I wish I felt more confident they are up to the task.

Both Schumer and Jeffries were really good for the historical context

Ro Khanna on Israel: βThe Democratic Party needs to be very clear. We need to call it a genocide. We need to say zero aid. We need to say zero military sales that are being used to kill civilians. And we need to say in the first week weβre gonna recognize a Palestinian State, put an embassy in Ramallah and East Jerusalem, and weβre gonna stop protecting Israel in the United Nationsβ

Profoundly heartbreaking to see voters from Texas to Minnesota leave their βI Votedβ stickers at memorials for people killed by Trumpβs ICE agents.
A reminder of whatβs at stake this election.

Voters just fired a Republican Congress.
John Roberts still canβt be fired by voters. But the new Congress can impeach him.
