Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.

Trump's win shows us who we really are: This article by professor Aaron W. Hughey is one of the most powerful and accurate post-election indictments of America you'll ever read. 😳👇

Mitch McConnell is the reason why the United States hasn't passed a renewed Voting Rights Act. He is the reason why the United States hasn't passed democracy reform. He is the reason why Donald Trump is still able to run for office (he had the opportunity to end this nightmare but didn't).
Mitch McConnell is the reason why Roe v. Wade was overturned, and why IVF is now illegal in Alabama.
McConnell is responsible for turning the U.S. Senate into the House of Representatives.
McConnell has never been a friend to labor, the environment, or responsive to climate change.
History, if it remembers him, will remember him for the things he did, and the things he prevented.
He put his own ambitions before the needs of the United States whenever he could.

BREAKING: 26 seconds after Donald Trump told a Newsmax host that “no president ever did more for Christmas” than him, he was asked what he got his son Barron, and he said “One of my people mailed him a big, beautiful card I think.”

Al Gore lost, conceded and didn't attempt a coup.
Hillary Clinton lost, conceded and didn't attempt a coup.
Trump lost, didn't concede and attempted a coup.
Any more questions? @SpeakerMcCarthy

Radio World Editor in Chief Paul McLane is in Austin attending Day 2 of the @txbroadcasters' #TAB2023!
The trade show is one of, if not the largest, annual state broadcast association events, with about 1,100 preregistrants and even more walk ups.
Here are a few highlights🧵👇

My friend Karen wrote a truly beautiful, moving piece on #PaulReubens #PeeWeeHerman. She absolutely nails why we adored him and think his tv show and the film Pee Wee's Big Adventure is transcendent... linkedin.com/pulse/pee-wees-…

An honest question for you, @Mike_Pence, after your attempted joke this weekend. If your grandchild was born prematurely and placed on a ventilator at two months old - their tiny fingers wrapped around yours as the monitors beep in the background - where would you be?
