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.
You love to see it. Calendar marked for April 6
The ICE detention center purchases appear to be money laundering:
Fortunately for Donald, he's too stupid to realize that having other stupid people for fans is the *opposite* of flattering.
You can judge a family by the company it keeps.
Polls have now closed in Mississippi's U.S. Senate and House primaries.
Incumbent Republican U.S. Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith and Democratic Rep. Bennie Thompson both faced challengers today.
We have live results at @mississippifreepress.org. I'll also be posting calls as they come in on this thread.
I've been struggling with how to express my dismay at the war coverage by our top newsrooms, and how it dances around the central fact that Trump is deranged and unfit to command. I finally wrote something. Please read it. presswatchers.org/2026/03/the-...

With half of the vote now in, Democrat Shawn Harris leads the large field with 42.1%. (Two other Dems combine for 2.5%.) Kamala Harris received 31.5% here in 2024.
The top Republican is Clayton Fuller at 33.2%.
It’s too early to know how the Georgia 14 special election ends exactly; but any scenario where two Republicans advance to a Top 2 runoff seems ruled out.
I talked to dozens of experts in government, academia, cybersecurity, and industry about exactly this scenario last year and not only did not one of them think I was being alarmist, many brought it up unprompted and many said there was zero chance it hadn’t already happened
Next week is going to be WILD across the nation! SoCal may hit 110° while parts of #Florida will drop into the 30s for lows. The forecast numbers you see below come from our best models. They won’t be perfect, but likely close. 1/
However much the airwaves are already flooded with new of crimes every day, just imagine how many more are being committed that we’re not even hearing about.
The revelations when Trump & co. are finally ousted from power are going to be *insane*.
this thread: watch AI help destroy a legal career
but also a great example of this regime's constant incompetence and lack of care
The Left has to fundamentally explain to millions of people that the rank-n-file of the Republican party is being systematically staffed by literal neo-Nazis.
Grim thread worth a read if you’re in higher ed.
If you are watching Trump's presser right now, you are seeing beyond reasonable doubt a person not mentally suited for any position of responsibility. Even running a small store.
GOP members of the House and Senate: You are seeing this too.
And just like that, Trump seems ready to TACO.
Today, he said “the war is very complete, pretty much.” He said “they have no navy, no communications, they’ve got no Air Force,” which, even if true, far short of “UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!”
Iran predicted this would happen. Then it did.
We desperately need an Alexander Butterfield today to bring down *another* corrupt Republican president.

I really encourage everyone to spend some time with the DHS Flickr page, which in one year posted thousands and thousands of glamour shot propaganda photos of Kristi Noem and little else. Our tax dollars! www.flickr.com/photos/dhsgov/

The event was pretty low-key until the shadow docket came up.
Kavanaugh defended the court's handling of recent cases, but Jackson quickly jumped in with her critique:
NEW: Liberal Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson and conservative Justice Brett Kavanaugh clashed during a rare joint public appearance over the Supreme Court's frequent rulings for Trump via the shadow docket:

Trump's messaging is influencing medical practice. Tylenol orders for pregnant women in emergency rooms are down. But prescriptions for leucovorin are up. Trump claims Tylenol causes autism. And leucovorin—normally used to lower chemo toxicity—is pushed by Trump as the latest quack cure for autism👇
