These maps demonstrate a radical discontent unaddressed by either “team”.
It’s a pre-ideological despair. The volitile swings with young men reveal something the older gens, blue and red, refuse to acknowledge.
Give them a path before it’s too late.
I've been playing this since it came out. This is my goto game, to this day. If have an evening free (not often), this is the game I load up.
I played UO and Everquest for a while and I was a big FPS from Wolf3D -> Quake 3 and Unreal days.
But, I don't have time for a clan and my reaction time is too slow for modern FPS.
But this game is all around still great, and I can pick it up any time.
You would think they'd congratulate pro-America candidates. Hmmm
AIPAC congratulates the hundreds of pro-Israel Democrats and Republicans who won their elections last night. More than 234 candidates supported by AIPAC members have already won, with many additional races still too close to call. We congratulate Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer and House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries on the resounding victories for their caucuses.
AIPAC members are determined to expand their political activism in the cycles ahead. Our community will increase its support for Democrats and Republicans who recognize that a strong partnership with Israel helps keep both countries secure, advances peace and stability, promotes democratic values, and grows our economy through trade and innovation.

Almost everyone alive right now remembers a more Christian America than the one we have. We had it easy and never assumed that we would need to fight.
Look at the left. Godless, rudderless, chaotic, and corrupt, yes. But they fought HARD for what they wanted and they got it.
Study the 60s radicals and gay activists, not to agree with them, but to see how they battled. What did they do that worked? How did they make the change they wanted?
They were outnumbered and opposed at every corner, and they still don’t represent a majority of Americans, but they have a grossly disproportionate amount of power.
Now imagine if Christians, who are not nearly as small of a minority, actually fought like we wanted change.
Some Christians think that not being nice is bad. Others think they should have nothing to do with politics. Congrats. You allowed all of this to happen.
We all want comfortable lives free from the world. We don’t understand the terrible sacrifices of others that allowed us such a freedom.
I’m sorry if you thought this was going to be easy.

The more you sin the stupider you get. When you quench the spirit of God you bankrupt your mind. You start to not be sensitive to the spirit, you start thinking your sin isn’t as serious as it is… you ruin your witness and create a miserable existence for yourself.

“My one vote won’t matter.” - said by 250,000 different individuals.
In looking at causes for tonight’s results, one important data point—in the 2022 midterms, around 24% of white evangelical Christians (the most reliably conservative bloc of religious voters) voted. In 2026, only 17% did.
In other words, a significant amount of America’s salt decided not to have flavor when it comes to elections. And when that happens, it fails to preserve.

People can get mad at @BonifaceOption if they want, but his arc was commendable imo. He went hard against the war when it started, losing followers from “plan trusters” then.
And in the run up to the election, he went hard encouraging people to still vote for Republicans, getting called a “sell out” then.
But what I see in those two approaches was courage and consistency.
Lost followers for “trooning out” over Iran.
I still am not convinced it is in our interest. The China/geopol arguments have not persuaded me.
I don’t hate Trump or want people to vote for Democrats or anything like that. I am still very supportive of him and his domestic priorities.
I am free to disagree with the administration. I am not a third worldist. I don’t have any sympathy for the Iranian regime. I don’t think this is Bush Era neoconservatism, but I still don’t think it is good.
I don’t think I represent a fringe opinion, but maybe it doesn’t matter.
I just want what is best for my people. Maybe that is what Trump is pursuing and I am too simple to understand. But maybe this also isn’t 5D chess and is a colossal mistake.
I don’t know. Even the very wise cannot see all ends. Neither can I.

Many conservative evangelicals are disappointed, even devastated, by the results of this week’s elections. In multiple ways, moral positions on issues such as marriage, gender, abortion, and even socialism (a form of economic and political tyranny) were soundly defeated across our nation. For many this is a devastating turn, and the consequences are both real and ominous.
What will we do? What we always do. Our trust was never in political powers. Our joy does not come from political victories or social trends. We must be faithful in season and out of season, in victory and in defeat. The truth will not change and did not change on Tuesday.
What will we do? We get up and go back to work with a sword and a trowel, defending the truth and building our churches, our families, and where we can, our communities. Strengthen your family. Disciple your children. Go to church. Worship, serve, give, teach, and work to advance God’s kingdom. We may not be able to control where the tree falls or the wind blows (Ecclesiastes 11:3-4) but just the same we get up, sow the seed, trust in God, and continue our journey knowing He is the Lord of all history and nothing happened that caught heaven by surprise. The work continues, the cause endures, and our eternal victory is as sure as an empty tomb.

Turns out that mocking young men about $20 burritos and telling them to “stretch the meat with beans” wasn’t a winning message. Who could have known!
The blindness here is unbelievable. Why do you think there is demographic replacement from foreign nations. That that is judgement!
We need to repent as a nation or there will be more.

Good job Texas Dist 23. 20k less votes than 2024 and when 180k voted for Tony Gonzales (guy who cheats on his wife with staff) only 120k voted for a Fresh, no strings attached, self made entrepreneur Brandon Herrera. You’ve joined the ranks of NY and CA. Good job

Somalis celebrate Ilhan Omar’s election to a fifth term in Congress.
The next time a Christian pastor refuses to address an issue because it’s too “political,” play this video.
Other religious communities have no trouble allowing their convictions to inform their political engagement. Why should Christians be expected to do otherwise?
No time for emotional breakdowns. Time to work

The conservatives who said:
1) The war in Iran is catastrophically stupid
2) Affordability is a real problem
3) America First
Were exactly right on every point.

South Carolina now has an incoming Democrat Senator because a (tiny) majority of GOP primary voters there thought that a Senate seat was a family heirloom, like a locket or a quilt, to be passed on from Lindsey to Darlene
It was a deeply unwise choice

This election day, I'd like to remind you that there are 70 million+ human beings who cannot vote. They were murdered before they ever got the chance.
They didn't have equal rights, still, to this day, those in their class continue to be unjustly persecuted.
The Republican Party has not done nearly enough for them. No state provides equal protection under the law for them yet.
But the Democrat Party eagerly and fervently does everything it can to murder as many of them as possible. The Democrat Party hates them.
You will never have a perfect choice in an election.
Pick your best option.
Pick the best option by far:
Vote Republican.
