I went on TV while nursing and you couldn't tell (until the end) drive.google.com/file/d/0B2g… cc @CBCNews

Genuinely shocked that Trump’s platform to raise prices, go to war for no reason, and gun down nurses in the streets didn’t resonate with the electorate

Last night, Sen. Andy Kim (D-NJ) told me something I keep thinking about: While Democrats may want to celebrate, they need to remember that this isn't a sporting event. This is Americans sending the strongest signal possible that they are in pain, and hurting, and want help. Now Congress needs to answer that call. It was powerful stuff, and if the party is smart they'll follow his instincts.

My feed is just flipped seat after flipped seat. I’m an American in France. Fell asleep at 2am last night before any results were in. Just woke up 5 hours later and now I’m crying happy tears. 🧢🧵🚙🫐👕🚎🦋🐟👖💙

"Texas is turning blue like I'm losing my seat," Max Miller texted me on July 28 when I raised questions about his race. "You're better than this."
A reminder of how many Republicans, including Speaker Johnson, ridiculed the idea that Dems could win a big majority.

You are trying to position yourself for 2028 by pretending you were concerned about those issues all along, but the fact is that when people within your own party brought up the cost of living, you made jokes about it. You are disingenuous at your core.

We probably all need to do some soul-searching about why there were 1 million daily think pieces about Abdul El-Sayed defending an already-blue seat and basically zero coverage of Adam Hamilton who just flipped a KS Sen seat for the first time in 94 years in an unthinkable upset

I hope @ChrisMurphyCT is recovering well & swiftly from his stroke and has been buoyed by last night's huge victories, for which he has tirelessly fought.

Dems dumped Platner and won the Senate seat.
No need to keep the terrible people out of fear of losing.
Among the many travesties of the Trump administration, the gratuitously cruel destruction of families cannot be forgotten. First term: family separation at the border. Horrific. Second term: ICE raids and abductions, incinerating due process & separating & abusing families.

Living in Florida is like being a kid in an orphanage and watching everyone else get adopted by a new loving family
