Elon is about to spend a lot of time in court if he doesn't flee the country. Nathan Johnson is the new AG in Texas, and Elon and his companies have broken a lot of laws here.
Van Hollen really laid it out for the party with this announcement:
"Now people will have to make a decision, one way or the other, and they have to decide whether they want to vote for change or whether they want to vote for the status quo."
I'm totally fine with a 67 year old. That's the age of a normal elder statesman. This will change over 4-6 years, but right now Van Hollen is totally with it and I love his ideas.
What if the affair is with the CEO of a Singaporean data center company that your company sells chips to who is also a Chinese spy who directs those chips to China, which is a serious violation of US trade law, and then you introduced that spy to the president of the United States, whose administration then dropped its investigation into that spy's company?
Yes. This story has the potential to be huge. Now that all of media is aware of it, they're going to start pulling at threads.
Rough summary for others: Rubio straight up told Trump that Huang's girlfriend was a Chinese asset, Trump dismissed that and invited them both on Air Force One with him. Trump's old friend and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick also dropped her company, Megaspeed, off any blacklists or investigations, and Nvidia sold them chips. All this is happening at the same time Trump is bellowing about how we can't regulate AI companies for fear of Chinese competition.
You don't leave your job when you have a break?
I anticipate the next 2 years are going to be rough. I would not be surprised if the Trump Admin starts arresting legislators.
As far as the Democratic Party, I anticipate the progressive momentum from this election will carry over into 2028. What we're witnessing is literally a generational shift, as all these 80 year olds finally start dying or losing power and Millennials are rapidly increasing their power in Congress
I've heard a number of progressive reps say they've had positive conversations with Jeffries regarding the House policy agenda for the upcoming session. I'm interested to hear more. To Jeffries' credit, he's only been leader for 2 years in the minority, maybe let's see how he does with a majority.
Have not heard the same about Schumer. We're all ready for that guy to not be in charge
This is my take. This Representative can go out and say whatever he wants. If this actually happened, say specifically what they said and who said it to you
Most House Reps outside of leadership only have a handful of personal staff. That staff is often based in their home district and interacting with constituents. They don't have someone planning their activities for them to the degree you think they do. House Reps have way fewer resources than Senators
How many "Dems got stuck in traffic," exactly? Wasn't it like 2? And do we know they attended this event knowing AIPAC money was involved? It was sponsored by a front group, right?
About 40% of Mississippi's people are black, though I would suspect they make up a smaller percentage of Mississippi's registered voters
Republican Thomas Massie filed this. He was going to file it in September, but in order to stop that, Republican House Speaker and Crazy Person Mike Johnson cancelled all House sessions until after the election. The House didn't work between Sep 16th and Nov 9th as a result
Also unless a state outlines a mechanism for the government to pay for a recount, recounts are typically paid for by the challenger's campaign. That would have cost her millions
He also won Jefferson Davis County
On its face, this seems like a dirty trick by Republicans. Mike Johnson called a recess, then after members left, called a snap vote on whether to proceed with impeachment with no warning. This entire spectacle reeks of a planned Republican scheme to try to influence the outcome through procedure and sow division within the Democratic party. The Republican House caucus was obviously made aware this was happening so they would stick around.
That any House Speaker can call a snap vote like this is a serious problem for our democracy.
He is when they wire him up
His skin looks like my grandmother's at her wake
