“Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.” - Martin Luther King, Jr., 1963

Today, it is a strategy from one political Party.

[Reverend Raphael Warnock @ReverendWarnock]

Mississippi matters.

Boom.

@teddyschleifer Any person who gave $3 for Scott Colom’s
Senate race.

But let’s not let it be so in 2027-2029!

[DIN Intel Network @DININTELNETWORK]

This exchange just happened on the Senate floor.
Cornyn: “I don’t understand how the SAVE Act disenfranchises voters.”

Durbin: “Happy to explain. Driver’s licenses don’t qualify under the bill. 50% of Americans don’t have passports.”
Cornyn: “Why not just amend it?”

Durbin: “When’s the last time the Senate actually amended a bill?”

Silence.

The SAVE Act requires passport-level documentation to register to vote.

50% of Americans don’t have a passport.

The people least likely to have passports: the elderly, the poor, rural Americans, young first-time voters.

The people most likely to have passports: wealthy Americans.

This is not voter protection.

This is voter selection.

And when a senator suggested fixing it — his own colleague couldn’t name the last time the Senate amended anything.

That’s the Senate in 2026.

Thank you for believing in me and never forgetting Mississippi. You supported early and it wouldn’t be possible without you. God bless you & your mom! #MississippiMatters

🚨This morning we reached the required 218 signatures on my discharge petition for Epstein Files Transparency Act II !

I’m working closely with @RepJayapal, @RepTeresaLF and @RepRoKhanna to get this to the floor for a vote soon.

[Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse]

Once again, I will be the only Senator going to the COP. There’s a lot to be said and done about climate, but my message in Antalya will focus on the three key essentials for climate safety.  🧵

[Reverend Raphael Warnock @ReverendWarnock]

Congratulations @scott_colom. The people of Mississippi have realized their power and there's no going back. Scott, welcome to the fight. Let's get to work.

[Democrats @TheDemocrats]

DEM FLIP: Democrat Scott Colom has defeated incumbent Republican Cindy Hyde-Smith, flipping Mississippi’s U.S. Senate seat blue.

When he is sworn in, Senator-elect Colom will be the first Democrat in 38 years to represent Mississippi in the Senate.

Congratulations!

[David Axelrod @davidaxelrod]

Tell the truth:
Who had 56 senate seats and 260 House seats on their bingo cards? But it looks like this is where it may land.
I know a few seeming romantics who did.
Looking at you, @PaulBegala and @JamesCarville!

[Scott Colom @scott_colom]

THANK YOU, MISSISSIPPI! This victory belongs to all of us and I am honored to be your new senator-elect.

That power comes ashore at a bit over 9 cents/kwh, into a grid with average cost 18 cents/kwh. That’s half off! Let the cost savings begin!

@donwinslow @hakeemjeffries He doesn’t have the influence/power.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Massie: A lot of people are saying Hegseth is effective and good at his job and so they don't want to vote for these articles of impeachment. Well, the reality is we're not indicting him for being bad at his job. In fact, he was very effective at killing schoolchildren in Iran. He was very effective at extrajudicial killings. The argument here is that he's broken laws and he's violated the Constitution.

[Rusty Rueff @RustyRueff]

@unusual_whales Here we go…

[Rusty Rueff @RustyRueff]

Says it all right there.

What an interview question. This is remarkable TV.

‘What do you think happens when you die?’

[Decoding Fox News @DecodingFoxNews]

CBS heavily edited Trump's interview on 60 Minutes. The black and white clips did not appear in Sunday night's broadcast. The network removed sections where Trump made false claims and fabrications. This is part of his explanation about the war in Ukraine.
