MS GOP Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith announced today:"I will not return the blue slip on the nomination of Scott Colom to serve as a U.S. District Court judge for the Northern District of MS." Colom was 1st nominated to a lifetime appt. as a federal judge by President Biden in Nov. 2022.

Maine’s new senator showed up to Washington in an $89.99 suit off the rack from Target — and it tells you everything about who just got elected, and the populist story behind this election.
Troy Jackson posted a selfie on the Capitol steps this week holding his U.S. Senate folder. People zoomed in on his sleeve, spotted the Haggar label, and tracked it down to Target.
It fits. Jackson is a fifth-generation logger from Allagash, Maine. His mom was 16 when he was born. He spent years working 80-hour weeks in the woods, and he got into politics fighting for loggers’ pay.
He wasn’t even supposed to be on the ballot. He stepped in with about 100 days to go and beat Susan Collins, who had held that seat since 1997.
The Senate is a millionaires’ club.
People whose last job before politics was blue-collar have never held more than about 2% of the seats in Congress. Most of the people writing laws about your wages have never had to live on one.
Jackson is a longtime Bernie Sanders ally. He ran Bernie’s Maine operation in 2016, and Bernie campaigned with him across the state this fall. He’s going to Washington to fight for Medicare for All, protect and expand Social Security, back unions, and make billionaires pay their fair share.
A senator who knows what a paycheck actually buys. In a $90 suit.

Tonight let's please honor the memory of Medgar Evers, World War II veteran and NAACP field secretary in Mississippi, who was murdered at the age of 37 outside his home in June 1963 and gave his life for civil and voting rights in Mississippi:

[I'm Pressure Y'all Pressed @kiss_my_grits01]

This goes out to Cindy Hyde-Smith...👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 #Mississippi #ScottColom

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

It will never NOT be funny to me that if Cindy Hyde Smith hadn't (proudly) BLOCKED Scott Colom from that federal judge position, she'd be celebrating re-election.

Instead, she's about to LOSE HER JOB.
And I LOVE it.

Call the damn race, already.

Trip down NC memory lane:
21: GOP draws 10-4 map
22: NC Sup Ct says gerrymandering is unconstitutional --> draws 7-7 map
23: New NC Sup Ct overturns decision and says gerrymandering is ok. GOP draws 10-4 map
25: NC GOP redraws again hoping for 11-3
26: Blue 🌊 flips to 11D-3R

A CBS Mornings Exclusive: The University of Mississippi freshmen who captured the viral video of two white students making monkey gestures and sounds outside their apartment door speak out for the first time. The students and one of their mothers tell @Jerickaduncan how they feel now that one of the students involved has voluntarily withdrawn from the school.

[Taylor S. Barnett @NerdyForDesign]

Looks like #Democrats are flipping both Alaska and Mississippi. 9 Senate seats flipped. Assuming the leads hold.

One Senate election. Ohio. Kansas. Texas. South Carolina. North Carolina. Maine.

A minimum of a 38 House seat majority.

Six Governorships flipped, notably Georgia, Texas, Iowa, Alaska, and Ohio.

The Texas, Georgia, and North Carolina state Houses flipped.

75% of Americans live in a state with a Democratic Governor. 53% with a Democratic trifecta.

Arizona has complete Democratic control over it's state government, and Michigan, and Wisconsin.

The state house in Minnesota flipped.
The Pennsylvania Senate flipped.

Both chambers in New Hampshire flipped.

24 states now have total #Democratic control over legislative bodies.

Just an absolute rejection of @GOP policies and #Trumpism across the nation.

There are 14 Senators up for re-election in 2028 who will be 70 or older by the end of that year.

Nine of the 14 will be over 75!
