Breaking: Arkansas Democrats just flipped a Republican seat It's the ninth red-to-blue pickup in a special election in Trump's second term

JUST IN: Democrat Alex Holladay has flipped a GOP-held seat in *Arkansas*.

So many of us have spent years warning about the dangers of Christian dominionists in the U.S. government...

"The president said he understood the risks of an attack, but he conveyed to Mr. Carlson that he had no choice but to join a strike that Israel would launch."

Jesus. F*cking. Christ.

What we should have said in the first place. That first press release from the PM was a complete comms failure. #cdnpoli
