Harrison Butker's Christian-values PAC is all but defunct and its website redirects to a Thai gambling site. @JackHarvel

Pete Hegseth (the least-qualified SecDef ever) has fired or blocked the promotions of dozens of female and black military officers. It's not because they aren't qualified. They are. Now we know it's because Hegseth is putting politics ahead of your safety. He should resign.

WOW. This is incredible. The Acting US Attorney for the Western District of Washington says it no longer has the manpower to respond to every ICE habeas corpus case, so going forward, it will decline to defend “many” cases and let judges rule without any government opposition.
DOJ cries uncle, abandons clients in habeas cases:

CBS heavily edited Trump's interview on 60 Minutes. The black and white clips did not appear in Sunday night's broadcast. The network removed sections where Trump made false claims and fabrications. This is part of his explanation about the war in Ukraine.

WARREN and BANKS Statement on HUANG - all comes back to NDAA
“It is time for Congress to take decisive action to pass key bills like the AI Overwatch Act in the NDAA that will cut off the various pathways through which China accesses advanced chips."

EXCLUSIVE: For the first time, a Pentagon official explains exactly how @SecWar blocked the promotions of women and people of color from the military's most senior ranks. Some say the new process is illegal. My latest for @MSNOWNews ms.now/news/pete-hegseth-pen…

Great reporting by @nytimes. The US Commerce Dept was approving sales of Nvidia chips to companies in China which either did not exist, were on the sanctions list, and/or had ties to China's military. A brief visit by journalists in China found that two of the offices were just empty shells.
Was Jensen Huang a "victim" of a honey trap or was he just trying to make as much money as possible? Was his $25 million donation to Trump's ballroom the price of pay to play? In the US - China tech competition, has the Commerce Dept been co-opted by other interests? Here is a gift article which raises deeply troubling questions.

1/ I'll explain exactly how this happened because I'm the person at Forbes who calculates these numbers.
This is going to take some unraveling, but here's a spoiler: The president's answer here is nonsense.

Well, that didn’t last long.
Over on Truth Social, Trump is now amplifying posts that question the integrity of the election results.

If Loomer was paid for this Oct 2025 tweet, which mimicked talking points Repulika Srpska lobbyists were pushing at the time, she should've registered under FARA as a foreign agent. And an American who paid as part of a pro-Dodik lobbying effort should have reported the payment.

Andy Biggs' daughter, Mylie Biggs, who said 2 years ago that she didn't think that "females should be in office" but then ran for office anyway, is now trailing her Dem opponent by 2 points in a Trump +18 state Senate seat

The GOP had a massive money advantage. I asked
@davidshor why it bought the party so few votes.
His answer: Campaign donations are helpful. But the freedom to ignore rich weirdos' preferences is priceless.

Statement from former Justice Dept officials at Justice Connection about Harmeet Dhillon's demise
“Harmeet Dhillon has been the most destructive, lawless, and hateful head of the Civil Rights Division in DOJ history. After she upended the division’s mission-critical work, the civil servants who dedicated their careers to protecting vulnerable communities were instead told to target them – and more than three-quarters of the division’s lawyers left. Dhillon wielded the enormous power of the Justice Department to threaten universities, state and local officials, and election workers in spurious cases that rarely won in court"

There’s a real irony in Republicans hoping that the late mail votes in Mississippi will rescue Cindy Hyde-Smith — just months after the RNC sued to void Mississippi’s ability to count late-arriving votes and lost at SCOTUS, 5-4.

Important people know the backstory of this ad. @patrickgaspard gave me the idea to take her inexcusable gaffe and do something edgy with it that could get attention.
My content creator, @RyanSayles_ directed and edited it. He should be considered the breakout-star of this cycle. He’s going to be a giant in the media consultant game. He did GAME CHANGING work with SO little.

Trump wants his planned 250-ft-tall arch approved today — and to immediately start work.
A federal judge has suggested she may pause the project.
The arch’s final, public review begins at 1 pm. We’ll be following developments all day.
