A Democrat won the Texas governorship for the first time in decades. But Republicans still control the Texas House and Senate.
What I think is the biggest news from election night for markets: * A Democrat won the Texas governorship for the first time in decades. But Republicans still control the Texas House and Senate. * Texas will host 25% of all data centers coming online between now and 2030. * Incumbent Republican governor Greg Abbott put a moratorium on data center construction on September 21st. The hope was that he would win and lift the moratorium. The fear is that the moratorium won't be lifted. NDX (NASDAQ 100) is down more than 2%.

Ro Khanna Urges Democrats to Embrace Hasan Piker as He Calls for a Radical Transformation of the Democratic Party
🚨 Ro Khanna Urges Democrats to Embrace Hasan Piker as He Calls for a Radical Transformation of the Democratic Party During an election-night conversation with Hasan Piker, Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna revealed that fellow House Democrats had questioned his decision to appear on the streamer's Twitch broadcast. Khanna defended his appearance, arguing that Democrats should recognize Piker's enormous audience and influence among younger voters. He even expressed frustration that more of his colleagues have yet to recognize the political value of engaging with him. The conversation then shifted to what the night's apparent blue wave could mean for the Democratic Party's ideological future. Khanna argued that the Left's electoral performance demonstrated the political advantages of a strong progressive flank, while acknowledging that the party establishment would not simply concede the ideological battles ahead. “When it comes to taxing billionaire wealth and Medicare for all and free college and zeroing out aid to Israel and stopping military sales, there's still gonna be a fight.” Hasan took the discussion further, asking how Democrats could build a legislative agenda that would ensure Republicans never regain political power. Khanna responded by calling for a sweeping expansion of government, including a wealth tax on billionaires, Medicare for All, free college, and free childcare. He also warned Democrats against allowing the party's political consultants to impose an incrementalist approach to governing, arguing that electoral victories mean little without radical change. “I want a Democratic Party that's actually gonna transform the political economic system and our foreign policy.”

Abdul El-Sayed proudly introduces himself as Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed, America’s first Muslim senator, and then starts speaking in Arabic. Americans better brace themselves. The communist and Islamic takeover has officially begun. They’re going to get exactly what they just asked for.

Dems will get 55 Senate seats and 250+ House seats.
Dems will get 55 Senate seats and 250+ House seats. Looking at the Senate map and considering such a massive House margin, it is very unlikely Republicans will recapture the Congress in 2028. Might not have a shot at Senate control until 2032. https://t.co/40BP6SjOaq
