Democrats watched with mouths agape this week as Latino voters,
many of whom have sat out previous primary seasons,
turned out in droves for James Talarico in Texas.
But the push to win back the elusive and swingy coalition that proved pivotal to Donald Trump’s 2024 victory goes way beyond the closely watched Lone Star State.

 Kyle Klain and John were having a conversation yesterday, when Kyle shared some AI-generated slop from Women's Health magazine with John.

It was 2024, and the physical therapist was in the midst of miscarrying a much-wanted pregnancy.
But because her fetus still had a heartbeat, hospital officials said Arkansas’s near-total abortion ban blocked them from taking steps to induce labor and end her pregnancy.
