I missed this story last week so maybe you did, too, but it’s important.

Democrat Chris Kleinjans won 60% of the vote in an Ottawa County Commissioner's seat recall in , flipping a deep red county and signaling a strong rejection of MAGA extremism. Polls say one thing but the election results Democrats get keep saying something else.

@TonyStark I love the last paragraph where one loser blames everything from voters to wokeness for losing instead of them facing up to the fact their junk is unpopular. Keep losing!

It’s not a good idea to let Donald Trump appoint judges. Too late for this one. It’s not too late to prevent him from getting more.

Is there no precedent this court will not depart from? We can't have individual states throwing Trump off the ballot because that would be “chaos” but we can have individual states creating and enforcing their own immigration policies as if they were separate countries? How on earth can the court justify this?

Don’t let any more Republican Presidents get elected. We can’t have any more right wingers on our courts.

Sick politics at its worst. The GOP owns the border crisis. Do not let them tell you any different. They own it lock, stock, and barrel.

How about Johnson take action on the Senate bill so there can be more lasting change? Huh? How about that?

Personally, I think it’s time for everyone to come together and reject Donald Trump a second time.

The reason you know Joe Biden isn’t an authoritarian is because you can say “Joe Biden is an authoritarian” (clearly incorrectly) and nothing will happen to you.

Looks like that WaPo cancelation was a good call.

@TonyStark There’s no way something like this should be given column inches anywhere let alone a media outlet in such wide distribution.

This is where the major media is headed, though. Time to promote the good alternatives and create more of them.

One true believer with a degree in zoology is behind many of the legislative and courtroom efforts to push forward homeschooling today. The ideology that drives him is conservative right-wing Christianity and he is determined to break our public schools.

Public education matters.

@shekinahcancook @jmb @MJ For the most part, and especially with this situation, it’s obviously a ploy by the right to decimate public schools. The man the article is about is a white Christian supremacist.

What would be best is to have excellent public schools where everyone is safe. That’s the best goal.

House Republicans have embraced one job - create enough chaos and dysfunction to erode trust in institutions so can try and justify removing them altogether in favor of something suspiciously more like authoritarianism. They have one job and they are doing it just like their wealthy owners instructed.

Trump and Republicans have no plans for wind and solar, unless making up cancer claims and staring at a solar eclipse are “something.”

President Biden and Democrats have been implementing plans that actually work.

New wind and solar manufacturing plants have been created in states such as West Virginia, Indiana, and Pennsylvania, leading to this, courtesy of climate provisions in Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act.

Wind and solar energy are booming in surprising places:

America, we have 11 months to stop a dictator. Don't be fooled by the familiarity of the fool or by any soft-pedaling of the situation. Trump means us excessive harm.

Nobody in the Democratic Party, including Joe Biden, is perfect. We don't need that and we won’t get it. We need people that will stop this march to autocracy, misogyny, racism, and the deletion of our rights.

One chance, people.

Voters must take Trump seriously and literally. The stakes are that high.

Is anyone surprised by this heinous announcement? Anyone at all? I didn't think so.

Mike Johnson has more skeletons in his closet than a Lions Club haunted house on the final day of October. The only way he can keep those skeletons out of sight is to endorse and play head cheerleader for Trump. This disgusting scheme will not end well.

It's kind of a fill in the blank with Joe Manchin: "dealing blow to Dems ________ good climate policy, infrastructure policy, etc"

Whatever he decides to do it will be something that benefits him financially in both the short and long term.

If he runs as a third party candidate, his policies are more Republican than Democratic and he will draw more Republican votes than Democratic votes.

Joe Manchin won't seek reelection in 2024, dealing blow to Dems' Senate map:
