🔵 “But I need y’all to stay in this fight. The war is not over. 2028 is around the corner. So Ashley Moody, you better get it right. Cuz we’re coming for you.”
Democrat Angie Nixon warns Republican Sen. Ashley Moody during her election night speech that the fight for Florida’s Senate seat is far from over. Tonight’s special election was to fill the remainder of Marco Rubio’s term, meaning the seat will be up for election again in 2028.
Great crowd in Tampa. Thank you to everyone who came out in the rain.
Somebody told me that Florida is a red state. It does not look like one today.
Together, we can take on Trump and the billionaire class and elect Angie Nixon to the Senate.
Hey there. If you’re going to call my phone and lob racial slurs, don’t block your number. Say it with your chest.

Hasan reacts to Astead pointing out the establishment is neglecting Angie Nixon:
Angie Nixon is just sympathetic to the left. And they're still trying to do this as an albatross.
We could be out there in Florida knocking on doors endlessly. But we can't do that right now.
Mayor Johnson handled the question about Hasan Piker so well that the reporter literally had to switch topics to talk about a video of Mayor Johnson dancing. It bricks the brains of these reporters so hard when these politicians actually have a backbone.
Debbie Wasserman Schultz supported the construction of an ICE detention center and voted to thank ICE agents. Elijah Manley supports abolishing and prosecuting ICE.
The choice in FL-20 is simple.
🇵🇷 “For 128 years of U.S. rule, Puerto Rico has been a colony”
Darializa Avila Chevalier, the Democratic nominee for Congress in New York’s 13th District, marked the 128th anniversary of the July 25, 1898 U.S. invasion of Puerto Rico by calling for an end to American colonial rule and declaring her support for the island’s independence.
U.S. troops landed at Guánica during the Spanish-American War, and Spain ceded the island under the Treaty of Paris without any input from Puerto Ricans. In 1900 the Foraker Act established that Puerto Rico “belongs to the United States, but is not the United States, nor a part of the United States,” a formula that has defined its status ever since. Congress imposed U.S. citizenship in 1917, months before Puerto Ricans were drafted into World War I, yet residents still cannot vote for president and have no voting representation in Congress.
Avila Chevalier pointed to widespread poverty, recurring blackouts, the federal response to Hurricane Maria and the unelected fiscal oversight board known as La Junta, which was imposed by Congress in 2016 to restructure the island’s debt and holds power over its budget above the elected government.
“I also support independence for the Puerto Rican people,” she said. “Because after 128 years, it’s the least the people on the island deserve.”

Rep. Ritchie Torres won New York’s 15th Congressional District Democratic primary on Tuesday with 23,258 votes, or 71.9% of ballots cast, defeating Michael Blake and Jose Vega in a low-turnout contest.
Andre Easton, a Bronx public school teacher and pro-Palestine socialist who is running as an independent in November, said the result “is not a victory resulting from mass support,” noting Torres received just 23,000 votes in a congressional district of roughly 750,000 residents.
Easton also announced he had filed more than 10,000 petition signatures to secure a place on the general election ballot against Torres. He says the “fight… has just begun.”
BREAKING: Scott Pelley Just Made A Pretty Stunning Allegation.
According to Pelley, CBS leadership wanted a story about the killing of ICE protester Renée Good changed to better match Trump's version of events.
Pelley says he was told management wanted protesters portrayed as more violent and wanted Good described as driving toward the officer who shot her. He says the video evidence showed otherwise.
Then came the admission.
"There was a thumb on the scale for the president's version of events."
A veteran journalist with 37 years at CBS is alleging political pressure was applied to change the facts of a story.
That's a remarkable accusation.
