When Trump is gone - and he will be - and Trumpism finally subsides - which it will - history will speak to the size and fervor of the cult; how easily so many were gaslit; how they embraced the most flawed cult leader EVER; how they rallied around grievance just for the sake of grievance; how they railed against their own freakin' best interests; and how they succumbed to such an obvious con. History will also speak to The People rising up - saying "no more" and saying it resoundingly across the country. But - mark my words - the real unforeseen disaster that almost took down the American experiment - that the history books will record as such - will not have been about Trump OR the cult - it will have been our media's widespread normalization of a madman. And from what I've seen so far today, as he rants about his sold-out rallies that WEREN'T sold out, and his vandalized pool that WASN'T vandalized, they're still doing it. It makes no sense anymore and needs to stop!

The great sleeping giant of America has awakened, taken a hard look at what’s become of the nation, and roared a thunderous “NO!” What occurred yesterday was not — as some are saying — the inevitable mid-term swing of the pendulum against the party in power. It's much bigger. robertreich.substack.com/p/t…

Here is Rep. Virginia Foxx yelling “shut up” at journalists for asking about Republicans’ attacks on democracy. She just lost her seat in Congress.

Thanks to all you who woke up and got to work organizing! All of you who voted for decency, fairness, equality, justice and against the flagrant corruption in our political system which has been stacked against the working people of this country. And a special thanks to the wave of first time voters and young people who took a step towards the future they deserve. Rise up and sing! Celebrate. Then we go to work reforming our party and our nation for good.

Senior Advisor to Ken Paxton says “our churches, Christianity—it’s all gone” after the blue wave last night. If you think Christianity is gone because of these election results, then you weren’t worshipping Jesus… you were worshipping the Republican Party.

Okay, let me try to explain it… A blue wave is a bad election night. A tsunami is a political disaster. This? This was an apocalyptic-level disaster that made one thing painfully clear: things will never be the same for the republican party. There’s losing an election, and then there’s voters sending you a clear message that they despise everything you are and everything you stand for.

The last time Kansas elected a Democratic Senator, Herbert Hoover was president, Babe Ruth was playing for the Yankees, and Elvis hadn’t been born.

UPDATE: Democrats in the NC House may have now clinched 72 seats - a supermajority. In House District 109 (Gaston), Democratic challenger Mark Carver defeated Republican incumbent (and January 6th rioter) @DonnieLoftis2. Carver is the Democrats' 71st seat. If the Unaffiliated candidate in HD-51 caucuses with the Democrats, as most assume she will, that would give @electreives 72 seats in the NC House.
FINAL (mostly) RESULTS FROM NORTH CAROLINA Hard to know where to begin. This was a generational election. Absolutely insane. The voter surge pushed the Republican gerrymander of North Carolina into dummymander territory, wreaking absolute havoc on the GOP's numbers. US SENATE: @RoyCooperNC by a mile. CONGRESS: Democrats flip 6 (!!) Congressional seats: NC-5, 6, 9, 11, 13, 14. NC delegation becomes 10D-4R. NC LEGISLATURE: Democrats flip 19 (!!) House seats, plus 1 Independent. 4 in the Senate. If the 1 Independent caucuses with @NCHouseDems, they will be at 71 seats in the NC House - just 1 shy of a supermajority. The NC Senate is now 26R-24D. Republicans are just 1 seat away from a full Democratic trifecta of North Carolina's state government. NC JUDICIAL: @Anita_Earls and all 3 Democratic Court of Appeals candidates crushed their races by wide margins. LOCAL: Democrats made large gains in local races all over the state. Totals are still being tabulated in some places, but Democrats flipped: - both the New Hanover County Board of Commissioners and School board - the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners, and the District Attorney's office - perennial Republican statewide candidate Jim O'Neil has finally been turned out of office - The Cabarrus County Board of Commissioners, where no Democrat has held any seat in 36 years - will now have a Democratic majority We will have a fuller accounting later. For now, it's bedtime. God bless the great state of North Carolina.

Scott Colom is going to be the next Senator from Mississippi. I am proud that Elias Law Group is leading the legal effort to ensure that happens.

Last night, Sen. Andy Kim (D-NJ) told me something I keep thinking about: While Democrats may want to celebrate, they need to remember that this isn't a sporting event. This is Americans sending the strongest signal possible that they are in pain, and hurting, and want help. Now Congress needs to answer that call. It was powerful stuff, and if the party is smart they'll follow his instincts.

Rosie O’Donnell takes a victory lap: “It’s a beautiful morning in the world. The Trump Regime is over. Thank you America. We gave a very loud and clear message to Trump and his sycophants, his criminal friends: we’ve had enough. I’m so proud of our country. Let the investigations begin people. This is a glorious day. You don’t get to define us, you madman. I love you America”
