JUST IN: Democrats flip a seat in the New Hampshire state House.

Dem Bobbi Boudman has won today’s special election, NHJournal reports.

(Boudman was the Dem nominee in 2024 & lost by 14%; Trump won here by 9%.)

This is Dems’ third legislative flip so far this year, after Texas and Arkansas.

It needs to be cold. My cold weather crops need it. Come on man. If I have another bust year I’m tossing hands.

👀 ICE deported two U.S. citizen children with their mother to Guatemala, even though she had apparently elected to leave them with their grandmother in Florida.

The govt is now arranging their return under court order: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

And #2: The Senate race is set between GOP incumbent Cindy Hyde-Smith and Scott Colom for Dems. Colom is a DA whose nomination to a lifetime federal judgeship by Biden was blocked by Hyde-Smith.

Mississippi result #1: Rep. Bennie Thompson easily survives his Democratic primary challenge from a younger Dem who argued it’s time for generational change. Thompson, 78, has held the seat since the 1992 elections.

RESULT: The AP calls it, that there will be a runoff between Democrat Shawn Harris and Republican Clayton Fuller in April (meaning they’ll take the top 2 spots and neither will get 50%).

This is the reddest district in Georgia, though Dems are at least going to get a big overperformance today.

The first of three NH towns that make up tonight’s legislative special election came in.

The Republican is up 5% there. In 2024, the Republican won here by 26% on the way to winning the district by 14%.

A long way to go still!

We were asking about it on Manchester boulevard the whole way through the community and on the main one that runs through Kingstowne down towards the Walmart. I don’t think we can safely do right now.

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.

I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.

Republicans Are No Longer Even Pretending to Care About Judicial Independence GOP lawmakers used to at least pay lip service to the importance of an independent judiciary. Then state courts started issuing rulings that GOP lawmakers do not like.

I had to read this several times to make sure I understood correctly: A bill in Missouri would make it so that if a judge releases a person charged with a crime on bail, and that person commits a felony, the *judge* would be charged with a felony for their decision to release that person

President Trump's tariff taxes cost every family $1,700 – and the Supreme Court just ruled them unconstitutional.

It is needed. It’s surreal. They are building a hospital and they already did a roundabout! I was cracking up. I was like there you go. I think they are going to put speed bumps on the side streets an extend bike lanes from what we heard.

And when that happens it backs up everything and people get hurt and or die. We had so many fatalities around Kingstowne it was unreal. A car flipped outside my community and no one died but it was upside down. So getting ahead of that mess is good Fairfax was too reactive and not proactive.

It is. I just go with you do what you can for the most good for all. Not just because you don’t want it. Kingstowne repeatedly asked for more bike lanes and I’m happy to see them. But we need more traffic calming on our main stretch and we have had constant accidents cause of speeders.

I’m so shocked about it because it seems like the homeowners wanted it? So it sounds like a small minority doesn’t and keeps arguing well no one has been hit yet?
