Hispanic is also weird as hell. Those % births by ethnicity treat Hispanic-White as Hispanic even when the kids are White as can be. I'd like to see the admixture percent of the Eses who voted R and speak English. I'm also convinced that Hispanics are separating back to base ethnicities over time.
Hispanics are an arab-aztec hybrid (Spain had just come out from 750 years of getting raped by arabs when they decided to continue the reconquista into a conquista).
It's like you're not even trying to be racist.
 
oooohhh nigga what the fuck is thiiis
Radiation is the simplest explanation. On film, which this photo was taken with, exposure to radiation will make what appears to be specs or flashes or higher amounts of grain appear on the film. in areas with sufficiently high enough rad levels (like outer space) astronauts even report seeing lights and flashes in their vision. apparently this is from radioactive particles hitting their optic nerve.
 
Noticed Hulk posted — thank God — was starting to worry he was that black nerd who got stripped naked by Secret Service trying to take down the "pants shitting pedophile" — turns out that was just another guy exactly like him

I see a lot saying it's somehow kicked up debris from the landing. I really don't think that would hover around that long close by so the astronauts could take a picture. My guess is they're legit UAP or radiation effect or some other film damage. From processing to scratches to just defective film would be my best guess.
 
Can you walk me through your logic? With the redistricting along the Democrats are set to lose at least ten seats
Donald Trumps 1st midterm was very bad in terms of the House, +41 dems seats. During his first 2 years he didn't start a war in Iran shooting up gas prices, didn't have bad inflation in general, didn't have the Epstein shit (though i think that is over blown) etc. It's pretty clear Americans hate the party in power and Trump has imo had a significantly worse start to his second term than his previous first 2 years which resulted in a house slaughter.

The political climate was significantly different back then, Trump wasn't prepared for the rampant election fraud, and people didn't realize that the Democrats were going to go batshit crazy. How about we look at projections using more modern data points, as you might as well be referencing election trends from Abraham Lincoln's time.

Well, you had Indiana situation though to argue against that. Most of his picks beat the RINOs. In general most of his picks all over have done extremely well in the primaries. I don't remember how the primaries in the first admin midterm went to compare though.

There will be no such thing as a safe Republican seat six months from now. At least not the incumbents. The most hard-core Limbaugh-quoting boomer will flip on a dime if their easy lives are at risk and will vote for whoever promises to keep it going.
 
Real talk this Virginia map is passing. There's no way Democrats will accept defeat.
There's no way they can run up an appeal, and again to who? The USSC? That's probably not going to work out in general, much less in time for November.

BTW DU and Reddit /politics are freaking the hell out, a lot of calls for revolution against the fascists lol

It will pass for the 2028 election for sure, but for 2026 I don't think so. I think the Judges logic makes pretty good sense and they are running out of time. They need to rush and get a very compromised judge to get it passed this year, but after this year the state is fucked.

Edit: It has to go to SCOTUS so yea its dead for this year unless they pull an Ohio and use it anyway
