On this Veterans Day, a big thank you to all who served, and their families. 🇺🇸🗽News giants trash U.S. veterans’ legacy. They Stand Corrected will never do that. Now on to the newsletter…

People who have spent the past two years doomscrolling are doing the opposite this week: glee-scrolling. The big wins for Democrats in the midterms have thrilled people who are sick and tired of the Trump administration.

Whether you want these kinds of successes for the Democratic Party to continue, you’re worried about far-left extremists who capitalized on the momentum, or both, you need to know what actually happened.

Unfortunately, you’re not getting that from the big legacy media. But you will in the new episode of They Stand Corrected, out today. Listen here, or wherever you get podcasts.1

The New York Times says, “Every major demographic group swung left” in the midterms. CNN says, “A wide swath of the electorate — including young voters and political independents — shifted their votes toward the Democrats in this midterm.” So how come only a sliver of the electorate actually switched their votes from one party to the other this year? The percentage of Trump 2024 voters who went for Democrats in 2026 is in the single digits. In this episode, I explain what drove the “blue tsunami.”

Also: Turnout estimates in context… A problematic new survey about Jewish voters… El-Sayed’s dangerous, unchecked media blitz… Voters rank the Israel/Palestinian issue less important than in a previous survey… and I share some of your questions and comments. Post yours below.
