Can Duolingo really teach you a new language? Meet the woman behind the new AI features that make it betterMIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Moments after the Patriots took a 34-15 blowout on the chin Sunday at Miami, Drake Maye said the only direction his team can go is up. But as the Pats fight to climb back, Maye doesn’t want them to forget what it feels like at the bottom. “Like I’ve always said, I hate losing more than I really like to win. Losing sucks, and I think just — I told some guys, just remember this feeling,” the rookie quarterback said. “Remember this feeling of really getting our butts whooped today.” Maye finished 22-of-37 for 222 yards, one touchdown and an interception in defeat. He also got strip-sacked in the third quarter, a turnover that two plays later led to a Dolphins touchdown. With that score, Miami led 31-0 and dropped the Patriots into their largest deficit of the season. Maye finally got the Patriots on the board with a 38-yard touchdown heave on fourth-and-15 early in the fourth quarter. He scrambled away from pressure and eventually found tight end Austin Hooper wide open down the middle of the field. But later, after Christian Gonzalez’ scoop-and-score fumble return touchdown, Maye sealed the Patriots’ defeat with another pass under pressure that resulted in an interception. The rookie spoke post-game to the balance of trying to create offense for a struggling team, while also protecting the ball. “I think it’s hard. It’s hard to balance and try to make plays and keep drives alive,” Maye said. “Just trying to make something happen, give us a little light. It ended up happening. Gonzo put us back in the ball game and then (I) go down there and turn the ball back over. So (it’s) tough and frustrating. I know we have better football ahead of us, and this wasn’t our best product today.” Over seven career starts, Maye has simultaneously exceeded expectations, inspired hope for the Patriots’ future and occasionally set them back with seven interceptions and five fumbles. But he believes games like Sunday’s will eventually become more of an exception than the rule, as the Pats pushes through the pain of another blowout defeat. “We have a bright future and bright players in there,” Maye said, “that are going to make some plays for the Patriots.”
WASHINGTON (AP) — The chair of the Democratic National Committee informed party leaders on Monday that the DNC will choose his successor in February, an election that will speak volumes about how the party wants to present itself during four more years of Donald Trump in the White House. Jaime Harrison, in a letter to members of the party’s powerful Rules & Bylaws Committee, outlined the process of how the party will elect its new chair. Harrison said in the letter that the committee will host four candidate forums — some in person and some virtually — in January, with the final election on Feb. 1 during the party’s winter meeting in National Harbor, Maryland. The race to become the next chair of the Democratic National Committee, while an insular party affair, will come days after Trump is inaugurated for a second term. Democrats' selection of a leader after Vice President Kamala Harris’ 2024 loss will be a key starting point as the party starts to move forward, including addressing any structural problems and determining how to oppose Trump. Members of the Rules & Bylaws Committee will meet on Dec. 12 to establish the rules for these elections, which beyond the chair position will include top party roles like vice chairs, treasurer, secretary and national finance chair. The committee will also use that meeting to decide the requirements for gaining access to the ballot for those top party roles. In 2021, candidates were required to submit a nominating statement that included signatures from 40 DNC members and that will likely be the same standard for the 2025 campaigns. “The DNC is committed to running a transparent, equitable, and impartial election for the next generation of leadership to guide the party forward,” Harrison said in a statement. “Electing the Chair and DNC officers is one of the most important responsibilities of the DNC Membership, and our staff will run an inclusive and transparent process that gives members the opportunity to get to know the candidates as they prepare to cast their votes.” Two Democrats have announced campaigns for chair: Ken Martin, chair of the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party and a vice chair of the national party, and Martin O’Malley, the former Maryland governor and current commissioner of the Social Security Administration. Other top Democrats are either considering a run to succeed Harrison or are being pushed by party insiders, including former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke; Michael Blake, a former vice chair of the party; Ben Wikler, chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin; Rahm Emanuel, the U.S. ambassador to Japan and a former Chicago mayor; Sen. Mallory McMorrow, majority whip of the Michigan Senate, and Chuck Rocha, a longtime Democratic strategist. The next chair of the committee will be tasked with rebuilding a party demoralized by a second Trump victory. They will also oversee the party’s 2028 nominating process, a complex and contentious exercise that will make the chair central to the next presidential election. Harrison, of South Carolina, made clear in his letter to the rules committee that the four forums hosted by the party would be live streamed and the party would give grassroots Democrats across the country the ability to engage with the process through those events. He also said he intends to remain neutral during the chair election. This story has been corrected to show that McMorrow is a senator, not a representative.DoLE champions workforce adaptation at National Summit

For lawmakers who are loath to vote “no,” Adam Gray has become something of a rallying cry for legislative reform. Twice, California Democrats have deemed the former Assemblymember their best bet to take the highly competitive 13th Congressional District . And twice Republicans have hammered him for an unremarkable aspect of his legislative record. “You paid his salary and benefits most of his adult life,” said the narrator of an ad run by a Republican super PAC in 2022, when Gray first ran (and lost) to John Duarte . “In return, he skipped over 150 votes in the state Assembly. Eighty percent of the time, Gray was physically at the state Capitol, but didn’t bother to vote.” The 30-second spot by the Congressional Leadership Fund damned Gray for his “taxpayer salary, no show job.” “It’s the Sacramento way,” the narrator said. “It’s the Adam Gray way.” A year later, when Gray announced he wanted a rematch with Duarte, the National Republican Congressional Committee made a point of highlighting his voting record again. “Central Valley voters rejected Adam Gray after he betrayed them to collect lavish special interest perks,” spokesman Ben Petersen said in an August 2023 news release . “In Sacramento, Gray skipped over 150 votes — and when he did show up, Gray drove up inflation, raised the gas tax and waged war on the Valley’s way of life.” The release went on to note that “Gray skipped over 150 votes while collecting a six-figure taxpayer paycheck” and “voted to raise the gas tax by 43 percent, then skipped a vote on his own bill to suspend the gas tax.” Duarte beat Gray in two consecutive elections, first by a mere 564 votes in 2022 , then by about 2,000 this year (with 87% of the vote counting; an estimated 28,000 votes left to be counted as of Sunday morning). In races that close, every negative could be pivotal — even though in this particular case anybody who is familiar with Sacramento knows that not voting 150+ times in a single legislative cycle is hardly unusual, let alone over 10 years, which is what the Republicans were actually dinging Gray for. Indeed, legislators in both parties openly admit they frequently don’t vote on bills not because they’re lazy, as the Congressional Leadership Fund implied, but because “no” votes are taken personally by their colleagues. Bills and other motions in Sacramento can pass only if they receive the requisite number of “aye” votes. By laying off on a vote, legislators do nothing to help a bill’s prospects, but also avoid angering its author. However, the current system for documenting legislative votes doesn’t allow for any nuance. The Legislature’s voting records have only three options: “aye,” “no” or “no vote recorded,” which can include instances in which lawmakers really do miss a vote as well as when they are present but have consciously decided to abstain. Because the “no vote recorded” category encompasses multiple behaviors — including those which which legislators can get criticized, like Gray was — there’s a quiet push to change the way votes are recorded to include at least one other category, abstention. “To me, it makes sense to make a distinction between absent (and) abstention,” said Sen. Anthony Portantino , the termed-out Democrat from La Cañada-Flintridge, who says he asked the Secretary of the Senate to make that change about five years ago. “The record should be accurate,” he said. The Disappearing ‘No’ Vote Both Democrats and Republicans opt to not vote on certain bills and other motions out of courtesy to their colleagues. But as members of the minority party who defines itself politically largely in its opposition to the party in control, Republicans still vote “no” quite a bit. “To me, it makes sense to make a distinction between absent (and) abstention. ... The record should be accurate.” Democrats, with their supermajority control of both houses, don’t — which makes them particularly vulnerable to the kind of criticism Gray faced in his two campaigns for Congress. Consider these stats from the last session. Ninety-three of the 120 legislators who served in 2023-24 were Democrats. (That’s 78% for those wondering.) Four thousand, eight hundred and twenty-one bills were introduced in those years. During that time, 499,655 votes were recorded on both floors and in committee hearings. And yet, despite those numbers, Democrats in the legislature voted “no” a grand total of just 1,010 times the entire session, representing just 0.2% of all votes recorded during the cycle. A Capitol Weekly analysis of legislative votes data found seven Democrats who never voted “no” in 2023-24: Assemblymembers Joaquin Arambula , Lisa Calderon , Mike Fong , Jesse Gabriel , Eduardo Garcia , Chris Holden and former Speaker Anthony Rendon . Ten other Assembly members voted “no” only once during the session. Forty-three Democrats in the Senate and the Assembly kept their noes for the session to single digits. No Democrat topped triple digits, with the highest (current) Democrat voting “no” being Sen. Steve Glazer of Contra Costa, who did it 73 times. No Republican had less than 200 “no” votes for the year (with Sen. Marie Alvarado-Gil of Jackson, the former Democrat , recording the least at 218). Republican Assemblymember Diane Dixon of Newport Beach had the most “no” votes in the Legislature for the year at 1,343. Democrats have been trending this way for some time in the Legislature. While the overall percentage of no votes recorded per cycle (from a low of 4% in 2015-16 to a high of 8% in 1999-2000, 2009-10, 2021-22 and 2023-24) and NVRs by Democrats in particular (from a low of 2.2 in 20215-16 to a high of 4.5% in 2023-24) has fluctuated up and down over the last 13 legislative cycles, the overall percentage of “no” votes and “no” votes by Democrats has generally headed down. In the 1999-2000 cycle, “no” votes overall accounted for 10% of all the votes cast, while the percentage of “no” votes by Democrats stood at 1. Democrats cast nearly 8,000 noes that cycle. Thirty Democrats topped triple digits in their “no” votes, with Sen. Patrick Johnston of Stockton recording 477. By the 2015-16 cycle, the overall percentage of “no” votes had dropped to 7% of all votes cast, with the percentage of “no” votes by Democrats falling to 0.7 Seven Democrats topped triple digits of “no” votes, with Assemblymember Mike Gatto of Los Angeles registering 234. The numbers dropped more precipitously starting during the 2019-20 cycle, when the Assembly changed its rules to allow its committee chairs to decide whether to bring a bill up for consideration. Coinciding with that change, the number of “no” votes, and “no” votes by Democrats, fell off. In 2017-18 cycle, there were 42,238 “no” votes total cast. In 2019-20, there were 22,395. In 2021-22, for the first time in 12 sessions, five Assembly Democrats (who all cast hundreds of votes that cycle) managed to go two years without voting “no” even once. The Pros and Cons of Abstention Former Assembly Republican Leader Kristin Olsen-Cate told Capitol Weekly that when she was in the Legislature, members felt not voting on a bill they opposed, rather than outright voting “no,” was considered less offensive to colleagues you wanted to maintain a good relationship with.

As Portantino noted, bills have their author’s name on them and at least some legislators take an outright rejection of their bill as a personal afront. He also said there seems to be an “urban legend” circulating among legislators that the less “no” votes a bill receives, the more likely it will get signed into law. He said it’s not uncommon for the author of a bill to ask legislative opponents to lay off, rather than outright vote “no,” to avoid encouraging other legislators vote “no” as well. “A hard ‘no’ is like a slap in the face to the author,” said Hannah-Beth Jackson , the former Democratic state senator. “It’s an extraordinary strong statement.” Jackson said not voting on a bill — abstaining — is also a way for legislators to walk the line between honoring their constituents’ views while also respecting other lawmakers. Say one of your valued colleagues has authored a bill that your district doesn’t support. Laying off allows you to reflect your constituents’ wishes while also not giving your political ally a black eye. A hard ‘no’ is like a slap in the face to the author. ... It’s an extraordinary strong statement. On the other hand, Republican Sen. Brian Dahle of Bieber dismisses much of this talk as “gamesmanship” and a way for the Democrats to control members of their own party. “An abstention is a ‘no’ vote,” he said. Laying off is just a form of political cover, Dahle said, pointing the example of Republican Sen. Shannon Grove ’s SB 14 regarding penalties for child sex trafficking, which was initially killed in the Assembly Public Safety Committee in 2023 due to a lack of “ayes,” not because of outright noes. “Behind the scenes, people will say, ‘I don’t like this,’ ” Dahle said. “Well, stand up! Be your own person.” Still, there is little disagreement that legislators’ schedules are busy and it’s not unusual for them to have to miss votes in one committee because they’re presenting a bill in another. It’s for this reason that some argue the tracking of legislative votes needs to be more nuanced. “It’s an excellent idea,” said Dan Schnur , a veteran Republican strategist. He said voters deserve transparency in the voting behavior of their representatives. If legislators are missing a lot of votes because they’re doubled booked, Schnur said voters should know that. He said that voters can understand the complexities of the job and that legislators shouldn’t fear they could misconstrue why they had a lot of missed votes. For that reason, Schnur said he’d support adding an abstention category to the official voting record. But he also made clear that he doesn’t think abstaining to spare a colleague’s feelings is appropriate. He said public policy needs to be debated openly, so the public can understand how policies are shaped. He said legislators shouldn’t be worrying about feelings. “That’s very sweet,” Schnur said. “That’s not the way politics is supposed to work.” Likewise, Portantino is less concerned about “no” votes, but thought differentiating whether a no vote was recorded due to abstention or absence was important because it affects how special interests grade legislators on their issues. If a legislator misses a vote, it’s typically not counted against a legislator’s grade, he said. But if a legislator abstains, it does. Those grades matter to some legislators, and Portantino said it’s not fair for lawmakers to be dinged for abstaining when in fact they were absent. At the same time, as apparently illustrated by Gray, there seems to also be a fear that legislators could be dinged for being absent when they in fact were abstaining, creating further incentive for more nuanced vote tracking. It’s an interesting debate, said Rob Stutzman , a Republican campaign consultant. But he wasn’t sure changing the voting tracking system ultimately would solve many problems for legislators. “ ‘I cast a strong abstention!’ ” he said, mockingly. “You didn’t get elected to abstain! I can assure you, they’ll still get criticized.” Joseph writes for Capitol Weekly .
