@NateSilver538 "out of fear of seeing one's influence decline from it's peak in ~2019-2021" - Is Nate talking about himself?

@RepJasonCrow "Presidents hold enormous power and responsibility and must be held to a higher standard" HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA... OMG, did he just say this?!??! Whose standards are we applying right now?

@DavidABergstein That's more of history e-book.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

Soon to be Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth complained on Fox that veterans who use the benefits they've earned are dependent on the government and lack "personal integrity".

This is what every Vet who wore their MAGA hats to the VA hospital voted for.

BREAKING:

German Vice Chancellor Robert Habeck:

"The regulation of algorithms, of X or TikTok, through the application of European legal norms is a central task.

We cannot place “democratic discourse” in the hands of @elonmusk or Chinese software”

@tribelaw "Empty words" is how the Supreme Court will justify & rubberstamp whatever the other two controlled branches want. Originalist? Who cares!

[Joey Sichol @joeysichol]

If you change one line, then you don't even have to TRY to win. In fact, the worse you lose, the bigger the mandate! It's like the concept of a secret plan.

[Anonymous @YourAnonNews]

Some strange statements from Trump and Elon have fueled doubts about election integrity.
“You can just change one line”, Elon stated about the code on electronic voting machines.
“I don’t need more votes, I already have votes,” Trump stated repeatedly.
So why not take a look?

@SymoneDSanders @TheWeekendMSNBC "Thought Leader experts... that KNOW!" What a crock. They showed how much they know...

[Joey Sichol @joeysichol]

Yeah, I think I'm done with twitter. Good luck with all this nonsense.

[Joey Sichol @joeysichol]

@HeerJeet And the Trump era will be your legacy, and Mehdi's. Happy? Feel good about that?

[Josh Marshall @joshtpm]

Vaguely hilarious seeing how many of the Trump campaign's hoax text messages were pre-programmed in advance and haven't been updated.

[Everything Price Sufferer (but especially eggs) @agraybee]

Sherrod Brown was an old school labor rights Democrat and he lost decisively to a car dealership owner who had to settle several wage theft lawsuits before running for office. This election was not about working class discontent.

[Airbag Moments hates everything @airbagmoments]

@froomkin Mainstream media should see its primary mission as countering the lies people believe. They clearly do not.

[Joey Sichol @joeysichol]

@electrazed @metzgov 3rd parties got 3%.

[CBS News @CBSNews]

43 monkeys that were being used for vaccine development escaped from a lab in Yemassee, South Carolina on Wednesday and are currently on the loose. This video, taken near the facility on Wednesday afternoon, appears to show shadowy figures moving through the woods. CBS News could not confirm that the figures are the missing monkeys.

People are advised not to try and capture, feed, or handle the monkeys. According to the CDC, some monkeys can carry B virus which can be deadly to people; “Even if a monkey doesn’t appear to be ill, it can still be infected. [The monkeys] are wild animals, even if they have been raised around people. Like any wild animals, they may bite, spit, or scratch when frightened. For these reasons, people should not attempt to capture, feed, or handle the escaped monkeys.” https://t.co/UeoiIs0r9J

Check out this @Ipsos poll from last month. People who answered factual questions about inflation, crime, and immigration incorrectly were "more likely to opt for Trump," Ipsos said, while those who answered correctly preferred Harris. https://t.co/eHzrIb0TLi

Neo-Nazi Pulls Off Surprise Victory In Long-Held KKK District

ONN projects that Neo-Nazi candidate Lucas Brennan has defeated three-term KKK incumbent in Alabama's 4th congressional district, flipping a House seat that has been occupied by the Klan for more than five decades.

[John Burn-Murdoch @jburnmurdoch]

Just to clarify: this isn’t just the first time since WW2 that all incumbent parties in developed countries lost vote share.

It’s the first time since this data was first recorded in 1905. Essentially the first time in the history of democracy (universal suffrage began in 1894).
