Here are six reasons Democrats may fall short of expectations. FEWER COMPETITIVE HOUSE RACES The number of competitive US ‌House races has shrunk sharply over the past three decades as partisan polarization and...

The number of Americans filing new claims for jobless benefits fell to 197,000 last week, the Labor Department said Thursday. This was 2,000 lower than the the previous week’s revised estimate and 3,000 below the consensus forecast. New claims for unemployment benefits are a proxy for layoffs. These have been near the lowest levels in 57 years for the past several week. The four-week moving average of claims, which smooths out weekly volatility, fell to 198,000. This average was hit twice in 2022. Prior to that, average claims have not been that low since 1969.

Tarlov is a party booster every step of the way. She pushes Democrats' talking points blindly. Ford is far more willing to call out his party when it deserves it, which he did on Tuesday, when he admitted that Democrats will lose if they embrace the DSA’s policies.

The Supreme Court on Thursday paved the way for Texas to use its redrawn congressional map, a major victory for Republicans who could gain as many as five seats in the 2026 midterm elections. In an unsigned order, the justices granted Texas' emergency request to block a three-judge federal district court ruling that barred the map as an unconstitutional racial gerrymander. "Texas is paving the way as we take our country back, district by district, state by state," Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said in a statement. "This map reflects the political climate of our state and is a...
