A note of caution: never underestimate the rage of a rejected autocrat. As a historian of autocrats, I am elated by Tuesday’s election results, but we will only see more chaos and erratic behavior.
I’ll 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-offic…

We want hearings.
We want subpoenas.
We want investigations.
We want whistleblowers.
We want journalistic exposés.
We want key defendants flipping.
We want indictments and convictions.
We want JUSTICE — and 100% actual accountability for ALL the corruption and crimes.

Last night, Native women made history.
The first Native woman governor. The first Native woman in the U.S. Senate. New York’s first Native congresswoman. The first woman president of the Navajo Nation.

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/…

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.

Ro Khanna on Israel: “The 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 we’re gonna recognize a Palestinian State, put an embassy in Ramallah and East Jerusalem, and we’re gonna stop protecting Israel in the United Nations”

Profoundly heartbreaking to see voters from Texas to Minnesota leave their “I Voted” stickers at memorials for people killed by Trump’s ICE agents.
A reminder of what’s at stake this election.

Congratulations to Deb Haaland, the first Native American woman elected governor. She’ll lead New Mexico with resilience in the face of this administration.

Voters just fired a Republican Congress.
John Roberts still can’t be fired by voters. But the new Congress can impeach him.

Democrats will now run the committees that can subpoena the Trump family.

Academia has a lot of reckoning to do. A LOT. Need to build up bottom-up power, unions etc to counter the top-down neoliberal managers, all too inclined to bootlick fascists.
