Looks like Israel is set to have its first Mizrahi prime minister. Some things to hope for:

1. Oct 7th inquiry and corruption trial finally fucks Netanyahu into his political grave

2. Raam joins the government and Arab participation in Israeli politics becomes a constant feature. It can’t be the case as it is now where so many Israelis spend half their time boasting about Arabs having voting rights, and the other half dreading the thought of those Arabs ever getting any power

3. The police and finance department (which Smotrich has used to fleece West Bank tax payers for years) will be out of the hands of fascist terrorists who should never have been allowed near a government position to begin with (fun fact, even AIPAC once condemned the government for bringing in Ben Gvir and Smotrich lol)

4. The E1 settlement project should be ended and Western allies should make a priority of aggressively holding Eisenkot to this if he allows it to continue

5. Palestinians in Gaza might finally be presented with a future that is neither the suicide cult of Hamas nor the colonial dystopia that Trump and Bibi were championing

6. There’s some evidence that the recent election has led to a growing interest among Palestinians in East Jerusalem to pursue Israeli voting rights. This would entail them applying for citizenship - a lengthy, humiliating and sometimes dangerous process - but one that would force Israeli leaders (including Eisenkot) to reckon with the fact that the status quo there is an unsustainable delusion. If they really don’t want their actions to look like ‘apartheid’ or ‘ethnic cleansing’, the only options left are to give voting rights or to leave.

Of course, none of these are set in stone. Eisenkot is by no means a left winger, even by Israeli standards, but his coalition will be one that will be more receptive to Palestinian leaders and to fair criticism from Western allies. Palestinians and Israelis have needed better leaders for a long time and maybe this can be a small start

Schumer flipped literally every seat that was actually difficult. Leftists flipped...Maine, a blue state, in the biggest blue wave of my lifetime.

Schumer won Mississippi, Iowa, and probably Alaska. Leftists won zero elections that anyone with a pulse and a D next to their name wouldn't have taken down

how tf did Annie Andrews sneak into a South Carolina Senate seat without anybody noticing she's literally this meme come to life?

Just dropping this here as a reminder for anyone trying to spin somethin

[imreallyimportant @imreallyimprtnt]

Chuck Schumer will be the Majority Leader.

Hakeem Jeffries will be Speaker of the House.

Anyone crying about this is not a serious person.

Both men did a phenomenal job recruiting candidates, supporting them, and ultimately delivering one of the best midterms wins ever.

@mike1zr2 You don't get to inb4 the refutation to your stupid argument lol

[James Hanson @jhansonradio]

The fact Abdul El-Sayed only achieved a +6.5 swing in a seat the Democrats already held shows he could only win in a Blue Wave year.

He won in spite of himself.

To win in 2028, the Democrats should be more like Ossoff, Talarico and Cooper, and less like El-Sayed.

[Bentham's Bulldog🔸 @Benthamsbulldog]

All these guys won.

[Shae Z 👀 @ShaeZChannel]

That bitch-slap of a community note, tho. 😂😂

[Nancy Pelosi @SpeakerPelosi]

Speaker Hakeem Jeffries.

RIP lindsay graham, you would have loved getting fucked like this.

[Derek @dvderek12]

DSA celebrating D+90 seats wins while moderate Dems are flipping South Carolina. Pure comedy

[Connor Ewing @ConnorMEwing]

I just wish Mitch McConnell were alive to see this.

[Oz Katerji @OzKaterji]

This is really concerning behaviour.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Just like we drew it up.

[Chuck Schumer @chuckschumer]

This is a despicable betrayal from Rep. Stevens.

Senate Democrats are united in our support for Abdul El-Sayed, because we know he will fight for the economic interests of working families in Michigan, unlike Mike Rogers, who is a tool of Donald Trump and billionaire donors.
