Labor candidates are bringing new life to the Democratic Party at a time when more union members are leaning toward Trump and the Republican Party. Several trade unions in Texas, including two Teamsters locals, announced their support for Governor Greg Abbott last week. https://www.texasobserver.org/texas-labor-candidates-run-for-office/

@randahl i listened to this podcast episode https://podcasts.apple.com/ch/podcast/autocracy-in-america/id1763234285?l=de-DE&i=1000743560677 and it doesn’t make me feel optimistic about the midterm elections.

YES!!! This is the best US news I have read all week:

Saturday, a state senate seat special election was won by a Democrat — not just barely, but by a fourteen point lead. And it all went down in the totally woke, ultra blue state of…

[Checks notes…]

Texas. 😳🤯😀

This was District 9 where Republicans won by 17 points in 2024, so I cannot wait to hear Trump claim this was “totally rigged”… by Republican Governor Greg Abbot.

November is coming ladies and gentlemen!
See you at the ! 🙌🏻

You know how hard Trump is losing, when even Mark McCloskey is now working against the Trump regime (Picture 1).

Mark McCloskey was the lawyer who found it appropriate to brandish a Colt AR-15 rifle in his neighborhood next to his wife holding a Bryco Pistol, when people were protesting the murder of George Floyd in Missouri in 2020 (Picture 2).

McCloskey is lawyer for the January 6 rioters, and now he thinks the Trump regime is infringing on his gun rights.

November is coming.

Speculation on the condition of US should be made in context to the 2022 and with respect to everything that has happened since. There is a US election cycle that determines the availability of options to create a majority every 4 years. This "cycle of seats" determines the ratio of power in Washington DC. A complex game of musical chairs based on the tempo.

Be prepared. If a historically administration (like Trump's) “wins” an election, you know it's rigged.

Donald Trump’s plan to subvert the midterm elections in 2026 is already under way.

I'm sorry, but this post doesn't seem to contain any direct ideas on what to do

yes we need to vent, but we need more, much more, ideas on what to do , concrete ideas

eg, contribute money if you can eg @charlesgaba and other people I think @swingleft

if you live in a swing district, get involved !
If you live in a blue district, like I do, don't send money to your candidtate, send it to swing districts

At this point it seems infeasible that we’ll have free and fair midterms. We should (somehow) develop a collective Plan B.

@NewsDesk@flipboard.social avatar NewsDesk , to random

Nine U.S. senators and 21 House members have announced they aren’t planning on running for reelection. With 15 months to go until the 2026 midterms, that’s a record number of lawmakers announcing their exit this far ahead of the vote. @npr digs into why the exodus is happening and where these politicians are going next.
