  3. This is the reason Mike Johnson and Trump looked like they just saw a ghost.

  6. Yo lets get those files, the guardians of pedophiles can fuck off.

  7. ^^^THIS should’ve been the big headline. Not Mamdani. Mamdani’s awesome, but a fresh face with a plan curb-stomping a known douchebag seeking power and some rando Republican in NYC doesn’t signify much for national politics. A ruby red state losing a legislative super majority though…that means something.

  8. Notice how there’s not call of election interference? It’s because trump’s not on the ballot and he doesn’t give a shit enough to tout out the lie.

  9. This is a crucial moment for the GOP. MAGA isn’t the future. It’s won them two elections but it won’t win them another one because it’s comprised too heavily of people who just support Trump. Once he’s off the ticket a lot of those people just won’t vote. GOP needs to start making good decisions for the people now, if they hope to survive 2026 and 2028. If they keep blindly supporting Trump, he’s going to sink them. Last night was the warning shot. The midterms will be a bluebath if GOP candidates don’t give the people a reason to vote for them other than it’s good for Trump if they do.

  10. Good for Mississippi and the good people. Hopefully your state can begin to see the light.

  11. Except they learned this one simple trick from Mike johnson. We’ll see if they actually get to take their rightful seats.

  12. what’s the actual split in the senate? no super majority is nice but does it actually block anything?

  13. I think this was just the result of a redistricting lawsuit (MS hasnt gone blue) but still great

  14. MAGAts are coping today with “who cares if Democrats won in blue states”? Meanwhile in Mississippi.

  15. I’m cautiously optimistic, but I will start celebrating when everyone who won is sworn in.

  16. I live in Mississippi….. The joy I’m getting from the collective fallout is enjoyable. Dupree isn’t the optimal choice to brag about something like this but he’s slightly better than a MAGAt, so he’ll do for the current timeline. 

  17. It’s like they thought we would just take the abuse laying down. 

  18. Mississippi is a special type of hell and it’s home to the highest percentage of Black Americans of any state in the country. Each district where Democrats gained seats was in an area where a federal court ordered lawmakers to redraw lines to make majority-Black districts and this is exactly why they want to gut the VRA. Despite the GOP still holding the majority in MS, any Black representation is unacceptable to them.

  19. Soo, I don’t really follow/understand American politics but like.. did the Republicans just think they could go around being absolute plonkers to everyone and the country would just put up with it?

  20. Going to Jackson is a shocker. You’re in the capital of a state that’s 45% black. The city seems like its mostly black, but the capital is all white. That state leadership is and has always been 100% white. There are white state cops all over the place. Kinda feels like the opposite of a democracy.

  22. Congrats to the people Mississippi. Your lives are going to be so much better off without corrupt psychopaths leading you. 

  23. Hey Republican States, are you sure about trying this redistricing shenanigans??????

  24. “Blue states voting blue no surprise” – a scared shitless Mike Johnson

  25. When even Mississippi starts flipping blue you know the Republicans realize they fucked up LMAO

  26. Whoa. Mike better start negotiating now so Dems only ask for subsidies and don’t ask for universal healthcare.

  27. It took 10 months of trump being president for this to happen. Midterms might be a bloodbath for Trump

  28. Democrats winning in Mississippi should scare the hell out of Republicans. Its seeming more and more that they may not even have a path to cheating to win next year. Even I am surprised at how well yesterday went. People are NOT happy with maga right now. About fucking time. Now lets end this mess in the next three years and never go back down this road again.

  29. I had a conversation with a really good friend of mine at the bar a few nights ago, he voted for trump mainly just because his family was but he’s not a politically savvy guy. Last time we spoke about politics was last November and I tried just once a friendly jab saying hey man you don’t have to vote for Harris haha vote third party and he said trump man trump. Well just a couple days ago he told me his plant might be doing mass layoffs and it got brought up about opinions and not blocking or talking to someone over having different ideas and views and he said “ trump is fucking me right now bud”

    I don’t blame my long time friend for voting for trump I feel for him. With just a little bit more care in the world and a little bit of education he would see what’s up. These are the people that we need to help get their heads outta the clouds. We live in a small town on the borders of PA and Ohio, it’s easy for propaganda to work for rural America 🇺🇸 that’s why the GOP has been so successful at attacking and winning it

  30. This is for the **Mississippi** senate, *not* the US senate.

    Just FYI for those who didn’t read the article. Still a big deal, but yeah. The headline is worded like that on purpose.

  31. Repubs weren’t ready to cheat for the special elections, and the results show

  32. It’s so much fun seeing Trump and Johnson squirm right now, knowing that all their efforts to block the Epstein files are slowly resulting in massive losses for the GOP nationwide. It won’t be long before the elephants trample over them in rage and end their regime, once its known that the ship is going down…

  33. Surprised the republicans didn’t move the goal post again…

  34. Democrats winning in Mississippi? This is the Republican apocalypse.

  35. We need to carry this Blue wave into 2026 and take a super majority in both houses of Congress and make some real changes to this nation for the betterment of the people, all people.

  36. As a canadian , this is exactly what we need to see happening more in usa to be friend again.
