Historical day yesterday with Lula becoming president for the third time. In his speech he said that Brazil is committed to a zero deforestation policy in the Amazon. Today I had the opportunity to comment on Lula’s future environmental policy. Brighter times ahead! #nrknyheter
Seeing quite a few “Dems are on track to hold the House” takes from partisan accounts without any seat-by-seat evidence to back it up.
It’s close, but at this writing Dems aren’t hitting the rates they’d need to in the unresolved CA seats to get to 218.
Democrat Adrian Fontes will win Arizona’s secretary of state race, CNN projects, and defeat Republican state Rep. Mark Finchem.
Finchem is one of Arizona’s most strident backers of former President Donald Trump’s lies about the 2020 election.

Mark Kelly now leads by 114,894 over Blake Masters.
Per @Garrett_Archer's breakdown, there should be about 500K ballots left, plus provisionals.
Even if there's a bit more, Blake Masters would need to win > 60% of the ballots that are left.
The path for Republicans to win the Senate is getting... awfully thin, as Democrats post strong showings in mail ballots tonight in Arizona and Nevada.
On what was overall a banner night, maybe even a historic one, for the DCCC, its chairman concedes his own seat. And his state, a blue one, could end up with a 5-seat Dem loss - potentially making the difference between a Dem and GOP House.
Republicans wouldn’t be slight favorites to win House control right now if they hadn’t been able to gerrymander far more states than Dems.
And, Dems wouldn’t hold the slight majority today if courts hadn’t struck down GOP gerrymanders in FL, NC, PA and VA in the last 7 years.
There's not going to be a call in the House anytime soon and the possibility of a Dem win isn't a theoretical proposition at this point.
The GOP edge depends on a lot of western races where we're not going to know the result for a while, and often where they're already behind
Putin has obviously suppressed any memory of this, but these are the numbers for the Yes vote in the 1991 referendum in 🇺🇦 on independence. Every single region voted clearly for independence.
Borys Romanchenko, 96, survived four Nazi concentration camps: Buchenwald, Peenemünde, Mittelbau-Dora, Bergen-Belsen. He lived his quiet life in Kharkiv until recently. Last Friday a Russian bomb hit his house and killed him. Unspeakable crime. Survived Hitler, murdered by Putin.
