Nate Silver kept saying the midterm was a toss-up over and over and people just kept ignoring him and saying Republicans would romp! Then, when it turned out to be a toss-up, they attacked Nate Silver and the polls. Bizarre!

I am absolutely fascinated by the certainty with which half my timeline continues to say that the polls totally whiffed the 2022 midterms. Here’s 538’s final polls-only projection of the Senate, weighted for pollster quality.

How did Berhalter come so close to not including Ream on the team? Baffling
Quote Tweet
According to Gregg Berhalter on futbolamericas Pep Guardiola went up to USMNT defender Tim Ream after the Man City vs Fulham game and said “If you were 24 instead of 34 you’d be playing for me.” 🔥

These guys want to play for Jesse Marsch. His job should not be in jeopardy.

Jesse at the final whistle. Trying to keep all those emotions in. Tyler first player over. Then the hugs kick in and you can just see all that relief and all that joy come out. What a win. What a moment. These players still playing for our Man 🇺🇸💪

Infuriating, heartbreaking. Immigrated here for a better life, worked his ass off as a landscaper, only to be shot and killed in broad daylight.

(8) But then the metro broke, and now orange line trains come only every 20 minutes. It’s now substantially quicker for me to drive downtown to work from our new home in the burbs than it is to take the metro from our old house on Cap Hill. End.

(6) Again, Bowser paid no political price for shutting down schools for nearly a year. She’s actually a moderate on the issue in DC - her only challenge came from a guy who thought DCPS went in person too soon!

(4) Schools. We were excited to send our boys to our local elementary school. Our oldest was just a few months from starting kindergarten when the pandemic hit, and did nearly his entire kindergarten year virtually at Brent, which was a disaster for him.

(3) Mayor Bowser does not seem to have any sophisticated plan for crime, but at least she wants more cops. Yet her only real re-election challenge was from a guy who wants LESS police and had no realistic plan at all to deal with crime.

(1/2) Tonight's Jan. 6 hearing put a spotlight on Sen. Josh Hawley, who helped lead the effort to try to challenge the 2020 election results. The committee contrasted our infamous photo of Hawley giving a fist pump to protestors early on Jan. 6... politi.co/3aUZMZt
