I need everyone to remember this, and tell everyone you know.
Trump and Republicans passed massive Medicaid cuts in their “Big Beautiful Bill,” with the most major cuts delayed until AFTER the midterms.
A world of hurt is coming. Don’t blame Dems.

Israel-lobby career tally for the Montana delegation shown: $1,096,438.
The tally includes campaign contributions and outside spending; it is not all money donated directly to candidates. FEC-based figures through September 5, 2026, under America Independence Project’s methodology.

On the other side, note the dropout regions of Montana, South Dakota, & Nebraska. In all of these states the principal opposition Senate candidate was an independent.
It suggests to me that a clear contrast was necessary. It is consistent with the idea that this election was both anti-R and pro-D.

New: Democratic overperformance in House races. South Texas stands out, but also states without competitive statewide races such as Indiana and West Virginia.

Surveillance. Is. Bipartisan.
And I begging Democrats to wake up from their security theater daydreams and pay attention to the last 6 years. When you invest in surveillance, and policing more broadly, you are building the infrastructure for future authoritarians.

The number of Senators and House seats held by Democrats is a majority, but that alone doesn't show how large the blue tsunami was in the midterm elections.
Over 94% of counties shifted away from the Republicans, while over 98% of votes took place in a county that had shifted towards the Democrats.

Washington Republicans helped cause this. They knew it was coming. They had the opportunity to prevent families from facing even higher health insurance costs. Instead, they turned their backs on them.

Ever see a bill that's just a title? Montana lawmakers are filing 2027 bill drafts ("LC" requests) before session starts, many with no text yet. One filed Nov 7: LC 1224, "Provide for artificial intelligence safety." We'll flag it when text lands.
