It's not just the money, either. A venue manager told me that when they're setting up her show, she went out and introduced herself to the locals doing the work to thank them. He said that's the only act he's ever seen do that. You don't have to be a fan of her music to be a fan of Taylor Swift.

DEMS FLIP TRUMP +21 SEAT In the first special election since Donald Trump took office, Democrat Mike Zimmer has defeated Republican Katie Elizabeth Whittington to flip Iowa State Senate District 35—a district Donald Trump won by 21 points in the November 2024 election.

KKK flyers in Kentucky telling immigrants to “leave now” are disgusting and un-American. On Trump’s inauguration day, this hateful act shows how extremist rhetoric fuels real-world harm. We must call out this vile behavior and fight for an inclusive, hate-free society.

@fantasypros.bsky.social My subscription has been a real boon for my fantasy league. Prior to joining, I finished 8th in a 12 team league. The last 3 years, I finished 3rd, then 2nd, and now I'm the number 1 seed going into the playoffs. I've made 48 moves this season thank to your service!

Now that we know that Elon spent a quarter billion dollars to get Trump elected, any dive into Why Harris Lost needs to start with "Because the richest man on earth bought the election and our shitty campaign finance laws just let him."
