Progressives in US House Call for 'Proactive Diplomatic Push' for Ukraine Ceasefire - https://www.commondreams.org/news/2022/10/24/progressives-us-house-call-proactive-diplomatic-push-ukraine-ceasefire
"Noting the pain and suffering of the Ukraine people and the risk of nuclear war that threatens the entire world, progressive U.S. lawmakers on Monday called on President Joe Biden to make a decisive shift in his approach to the conflict by initiating a "proactive democratic push" with the goal of seeking "a realistic framework for a ceasefire" through direct negotiations with Russia.
Led by Congressional Progressive Caucus chair Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), the lawmakers said the U.S. must lead efforts to end the war as peacefully as possible in addition to providing the Ukrainians with economic and military aid, which now totals $60 billion.
"If there is a way to end the war while preserving a free and independent Ukraine, it is America's responsibility to pursue every diplomatic avenue to support such a solution that is acceptable to the people of Ukraine," wrote the lawmakers. "The alternative to diplomacy is protracted war, with both its attendant certainties and catastrophic and unknowable risks.""

Frank Luntz Warns Trump Win Means He’ll Likely Get Two More Supreme Court Picks: ‘About As Big An Impact As You Can Have’ - https://www.mediaite.com/tv/frank-luntz-warns-trump-win-means-hell-likely-get-two-more-supreme-court-picks-about-as-big-an-impact-as-you-can-have/
"Pollster Frank Luntz warned on Tuesday during NewsNation’s election coverage that former President Donald Trump winning the presidential race means he’ll likely end up picking a total of five Supreme Court Justices.
Luntz joined Chris Cuomo, Elizabeth Vargas, and Leland Vittert on Tuesday as election results were rolling in and Trump was called a victor by Decision Desk HQ in swing states like Georgia and North Carolina, leaving Vice President Kamala Harris relying on states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin to turn things around. With the Senate also leaning red, Luntz noted that Trump winning with a Senate in his favor would make a number of things easier for him, including having more influence over who ends up on the Supreme Court."

Jen Psaki Predicts Harris Performance Will Spark Debate About Decision to Push Out Biden - https://www.mediaite.com/tv/jen-psaki-predicts-harris-performance-will-spark-debate-about-decision-to-push-out-biden/
"MSNBC anchor Jen Psaki predicted the Democratic Party would hold some frank conversations about the decision from top party leaders to ask President Joe Biden to drop his reelection bid earlier this year.
Biden exited the race in July – a month after his poor debate performance against former President Donald Trump raised concerns about his mental acuity.
Top Democrats reportedly urged him to exit the race, and he announced he would endorse Vice President Kamala Harris on July 21.
On Tuesday night, as battleground state returns showed a narrow path of victory for Harris, NBC’s Lester Holt asked Psaki if she believed urging Biden to step aside would spark a “conversation.”"

One in three people of color voted for Trump as GOP makes inroads in historic Democratic strongholds - https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/us-election-exit-poll-race-division-b2642223.html
"Donald Trump picked up one in every three votes cast by people of color in the 2024 election, according to an exit poll published late on Tuesday.
The NBC News survey’s finding indicates that the the American electorate has become less politically divided along racial or ethnic lines, with particular groups less likely to behave as unified voting blocs.
This comes despite the former president’s campaign being dogged by a number of racial controversies."

How Trump won a second term as president in 2024 - https://www.npr.org/2024/11/06/g-s1-33007/how-trump-won-policies
"In his return to power, Trump defied so many expectations, surviving repeated scandals and multiple indictments. He is the first convicted felon to win the White House.
Trump’s overall closing focus on the economy and immigration ultimately resonated with enough Americans — more than the message delivered by Harris, who called for unity and warned that Trump was a “petty tyrant” who was obsessed with revenge.
Trump doubled down on his hard-line border stance, using increasingly dehumanizing language to describe immigrants, accusing them of poisoning the blood of the country and falsely claiming a Venezuelan street gang was taking over the country."

Election Live Updates: Harris Calls Trump to Concede - https://www.nytimes.com/live/2024/11/06/us/trump-election-harris-news
"Vice President Kamala Harris was preparing to deliver a concession speech at 4 p.m. Eastern time, after calling President-elect Donald J. Trump to concede. President Biden has called both candidates and plans to address the country on Thursday.
Mr. Trump clinched the presidency just after 5:30 a.m. when he won Wisconsin, capping a remarkable political comeback four years after being voted out of office.
Republicans secured control of the Senate for the first time in four years, but one embattled Democrat, Senator Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin, held her seat in a state carried by Mr. Trump."
