The Russians started the war, and there is no other way to put it. The whole world is a witness. They came with aggression to destroy us. We stopped them. Europe helped, America helped. Russia failed to occupy Ukraine first and foremost because of the strength of the Ukrainian

“Have you seen evidence there were survivors on the boat?” REPUBLICAN Rand Paul: “They only show me selective briefings. But both strikes were illegal. The boats are 2000 miles away, incapable of reaching 🇺🇸. Where’s the proof? It’s a completely made up sense that we’re at war.”

JUST IN: Democrats have flipped the mayor's office in Roswell, Georgia, in tonight's runoff. GOP Mayor Kurt Wilson conceded earlier tonight to Mary Robichaux, the Dem challenging him. (This is a city in the Atlanta suburbs, the 9th most populous city in Georgia.)

🚨 This is one of the biggest flashing red light warning signs we’ve seen yet for Republicans. If every House district in the country shifted left by this same amount - about 15 points - we would be looking at a blue wave far worse than 2018 - estimated 43 seats flipping.

The NYT is now projecting that Republicans win #TN07 by 8.6 points - a 13.7 point shift left from 2024. If every state shifted that much in 2026, Democrats would flip all of these Senate seats: Maine North Carolina Ohio Florida Alaska Iowa Texas

This high level of turnout is simultaneously what doomed Behn but also what should be setting off GOP alarm bells. In a district this red, higher turnout meant Behn would have a much harder time winning. But at the same time, if she was able to generate a 14-15 point

Leave the binary of "did you win" aside: I also think this is a *major* flag for Republicans. Turnout hit 2022 midterm levels, Democrats ran a DSA-esque candidate in a Trump +22 seat, got massively outspent, and then still lost by just 9%. That's really bad for the GOP.

Tonight, we did something everyone counted out. We proved to a nation that states like Tennessee are still worth fighting for. The margin was close, and that can only be attributed to the thousands of volunteers who showed out. This is just the beginning.

This is so important! This race moved from 22 to 8 points because folks were excited and got involved and volunteered—there would not have been this level of energy or volunteerism with a centrist campaign.

The cruelty continues. But then we tried to tell yall this would happen and People voted for him anyway. And now we are seeing voter remorse based on the results tonight in Tennessee and then on 11/4 where republicans lost everywhere across the country. GOP is in trouble.

Bottom line…midterm in miniature. Races will almost always be more nationalized in regular elex, but TN-07 turnout is at 100% of 2022, & a Democrat—with the sort of on-video quotes Rs salivate over—saw the sort of swing you see in “low turnout specials” people dismiss (+14D)
