Senate Democrats mocked the NRSC’s endorsement in a statement.

“#KariLake is the poster child for #Senate Republicans’ candidate quality problem and abysmal recruiting strategy,” said Tommy Garcia, spokesman for DSCC.

“An election loser despised by #Arizona Republicans, Lake brings massive baggage and disqualifying flaws to the campaign,” Garcia continued. “We’re thrilled with the NRSC’s choice. Lake is the perfect candidate — to lose the race.”

I've heard so many stories of people saying how they felt out of place when they were in high school, it makes me wonder if anyone ever feels comfortable, at home, satisfied with being themselves there.

Or at the office. Or in a group.

It takes strength, time, and determination to be yourself in a society that so strongly exerts peer pressure.

NEW: After withdrawing its election lawsuit in Maricopa County, #Arizona 16 days after filing it, Stephen Miller’s legal group files a nearly identical case in Yavapai County. Maricopa argues the group's actions are a "thinly-veiled attempt to forum shop." https://www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/right-wing-group-files-new-arizona-election-lawsuit-after-withdrawing-from-maricopa-county/

Saguaro Cactus

The Saguaro Cactus captured in the desert north of Phoenix Arizona.
Spent a few days in Phoenix visiting family. My brother and I went out into the desert as I wanted to explore the area.
The timing was perfect as you can tell, the overcast skies kept the temperatures down in the mid 70's allowing us to explore the desert without coming down with heat stroke.

Saguaro Cactus

The image titled Saguaro Cactus captures a towering saguaro cactus standing proudly in the desert north of Phoenix, Arizona. The composition emphasizes the cactus's iconic silhouette against a backdrop of overcast skies, which soften the light and bring out the textures of the desert landscape. The muted tones and diffused lighting suggest a calm, temperate day—perfect for exploring without the harshness of desert heat.

The cactus itself appears majestic and resilient, a symbol of the American Southwest. Its arms stretch upward, echoing the rugged beauty and quiet strength of the region. The framing and timing highlight both the grandeur of the plant and the serenity of its surroundings.

Rep. Ruben Gallego:

"Today's ruling is devastating for #Arizona women and their families. This is not what Arizonans want, and women could die because of it."  “This isn't about partisanship — it's about protecting Arizonans' rights. And here in Arizona, we support a woman's right to an #abortion — which is why I am going to defeat Kari Lake and fight like hell to protect abortion rights once and for all."

"#Democrats further narrow #GOP’s House majority with #Arizona #specialElection win

#AdelitaGrijalva ran on… her father’s legacy and received endorsements from… #BernieSanders… #AOC… and the Congressional #Progressive Caucus. She cited affordable #housing, defending #workersrights, expanding #welfare programs and fighting #Trump’s economic agenda"

Great!

And the zinger…

👀

We should get the #EpsteinFiles due to her #election

(see screenshot explaining why)

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/democrats-further-narrow-gop-s-house-majority-with-arizona-special-election-win/ar-AA1NbcDc

Adelita Grijalva

While Democrats are likely to be glad to have another vote in the House, Grijalva might be greeted warmly by an unlikely figure: Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Kentucky), who, alongside Rep. Ro Khanna (D-California), is collecting signatures for a discharge petition to force a vote on a bill requiring the Justice Department to release all unclassified files related to the investigation into Epstein, who died in prison while awaiting trial in 2019. (A discharge petition is a method of bringing a bill to the floor when the House speaker refuses to do so.) The petition had 216 signatures before Walkinshaw won his special election this month, with all House Democrats and four Republicans supporting it. Walkinshaw signed on shortly after being sworn in, and Grijalva’s assent would be the final signature of support needed to reach the 218 it needs to force a vote.
