If Republicans cared to try to do anything about affordability in the last two years when they had all 3 branches of government, you wouldn’t be in this position.
It was mostly nuking the economy and inflation with tarrifs. Dumb people love culture wars slop until their personal lives become less comfortable, and the vast majority of Republican voters are culture war politics-as-a-team-sport slop enjoyers.
Checking in on Fox News now that we know dems won house and senate. Never seen them so interested in people delivering policy to lift up the American people as opposed to revenge stuff now that Republicans are not in power!
The USA has the Trump admin on their mind as well as the individuals they are voting for on the ballot tonight. Can’t kill the economy, get us into wars of choice, and be blatantly corrupt and expect normal people with independent thought to go along with it.
President Trump is still watching the election results in the East Room tonight. As his handpicked candidates are struggling, a White House official is offering this assessment: "President Trump did a better job promoting many of the candidates on the ballot than the candidates did themselves."
"President Trump was not on the ballot, and it’s proven that Trump voters show up when he is on the ballot."
This is, uh, an interesting coincidence considering him revealing the plans Trump has for Iran post midterms were insane a few days ago.
BREAKING: US Senator Chris Murphy hospitalized following a stroke, per his office.
This comes just days after being briefed on highly classified military planning on Iran to restart the war after the midterms, where he called Trump's plan "insane."
"I will just say this: their plan is insane. It will lead to devastating escalation and the likely destruction of our commitment to the rule of law," he said four days ago.
This would be on my holiday watchlist every year

When conservatives say crazy stuff about how schools are “trying to trans kids”, this is the kind of thing they are getting that info from, as well as Facebook/twitter posts from randoms.
A Republican women's group is behind a fake Texas transgender student union that sent text messages and brochures to as many as three million voters this month.
The Republican Women’s Caucus Fund and someone named John Braun were identified as those responsible for the scheme that riled up voters just as early voting began, according to legal filings made public late Thursday. The identities were ordered to be revealed by a Travis County judge. bit.ly/48q1oVa
Nuclear ratio, love when posts from this type of guy leave their Safe Space no critical thinking zone.
Those men need to step up and head home from the front lines nightly to help with dishes before going back to getting shot at after
Conflict places more of the care burden on women and girls' shoulders.
#Peace and security require more than their unpaid labor.
Women and girls must be at the heart of peacebuilding.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Men/boys are the large majority of combat deaths in conflicts — omitted. Boys also do care work — omitted. Saying women & girls must be “at the heart” of peacebuilding is prioritisation, not equality. Higher unpaid care ratios occur because men are dying or fighting.

After you stay at a hotel, do you strip the bed & wash the sheets?
After you eat in a restaurant, do you wash the plates and cutlery?

Right wingers crying about Obama has been so funny. Growing up, my family could not afford to go to Cheesecake Factory, but we weren’t under the impression it was fancy.
This is actually a condescending view of working-class people. I grew up in a working-class immigrant family and we ate at Red Lobster and The Cheesecake Factory for "fancy nights out." But even we understood that the White House should not look like the inside of a Red Lobster. Working-class people are not culturally illiterate just because their experiences are shaped by their limited means.
Not being in the spotlight of the election =/= abandonment.
Trans voter to @AOC: Trans people in America feel like they've been abandoned by the Democratic Party, that we are a losing issue, that it's not worth defending us. What do you say to that?
AOC:
