What a joke. @DanPatrick was paid $3 million dollars to ensure @KenPaxtonTX was not convicted when impeached. Patrick rigged the game to preserve the political viability of a worm that should have been sent back under the rock from which he crawled. #txlege
Outgoing Texas Lt. Gov. @DanPatrick, on his podcast (out today), talks about @KenPaxtonTX and the race for Senate. #TXLege #TXSen

85 year old Bernie Sanders has only been a senator for 19 years. It would be unreasonable to expect him to develop a clear yes-or-no position on the filibuster in that brief time.
Would @BernieSanders support abolishing the filibuster for the next two years to enable Democrats to pass more bills through the Senate? Watch his response.

It's not hard to believe the circular financing deals will be reigned in now that Jensen is gone. The board has to get more involved, and the CFO, now CEO, who seemed to have some concerns, will also temper the mania in financing. They may not explicitly say it, but do it quietly. If anyone thinks things will be just as they have been under Jensen, they might be in for a surprise

NEW: In a tense late-summer meeting, Jensen Huang called his Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress a “deer in the headlights.”
His concern: Nvidia’s plans to fund the AI boom with its balance sheet were running into problems. He needed to figure it out.
He called her a “reporting CFO,” not someone who could help him define a strategy or make decisions.

A better strategy for saving Texas from the disaster you helped to cause would be for you to move to that penguin island that Trump put tariffs on.

If you're a China hawk, and you read the following revelations/allegations in a 48 hours period ...
1. Jensen Huang is sleeping with a Chinese spy.
2. Nvidia has been selling chips to Chinese AI companies for years through a Singapore intermediary overseen by that Chinese spy.
3. Nvidia’s lawyers pushed back on a federal investigation into this illegal scheme.
4. The White House knew all of the above and did absolutely nothing.
... I think it is understandable if what happens next is your head explodes

My take on the Abu Dhabi negotiations: These talks are a dangerous farce. If the Trump administration actually wants to end the war, it should do the very thing that it refuses to do—ramp up support for Ukraine and put pressure on Russia. bit.ly/4zJWbnq
I don't think this would be an improvement.
If successful will he order the Senate bean soup recipe amended to include Old Bay seasoning?

This Outlook outage reminds me of my favorite haiku ever:
Yesterday it worked.
Today is it not working.

“People close to the president say that in private, he has questioned why the United States would ever go to war over Taiwan.
To dramatize his disregard for the small island nation, Mr. Trump has been known to hold up a teaspoon to lunch guests at his golf club and say, “This is Taiwan.”
NEW: President Trump called Jensen Huang Tuesday and urged him to keep fighting for his job as the pressure intensified for him to step down. @jonathanvswan @trippmickle @julianbarnes me nytimes.com/2026/11/12/us/po…

To pump up arrest numbers, ICE is arresting people who came legally on visas, applied for asylum, and have been working legally and complying with every rule while they remain stuck in years-long government backlogs.
It’s technically lawful, but reprehensible and nonsensical.
This is Mark Mikhail.
He’s a sophomore at the University of Notre Dame where he is president of the Maritain Fellows and majoring in biology and theology.
He was arrested by ICE and detained for three nights while traveling back to campus from a visit home in California.
Mark is originally from Egypt. He and his family are “seeking asylum in the U.S. based on persecution of Coptic Orthodox Christians in Egypt.” He has a valid work permit, according to reports.
Now he is facing removal proceedings.
President Trump recently told Ross Douthat that his immigration enforcement polices might be “too tough.” Perhaps this is an example of that. Why not let Mark’s asylum application play out?
Read an interview with Mark in the Irish Rover, an independet, Catholic, and conservative student paper at a Notre Dame. Link below.

“The tighter ties between Nvidia and the Commerce Department also gave Tim Teter, Nvidia’s general counsel, unique influence over the department and its rule-making process. When department staff reviewed drafts of policies under consideration, they sometimes found themselves looking at comments and critiques in the document that had been inserted by Mr. Teter.”
Lutnick Took a Softer Line on Nvidia as Calls for Tougher Controls Grew
Critics say Howard Lutnick, the commerce secretary, and his department have shielded Nvidia as concerns have grown over A.I. chip sales to firms like Megaspeed

Thank you chairman @MikeHurstMS. Found out today you also went to Millsaps and played basketball under Coach Stroud. He said my jumper was better than yours, though. 😂
God bless you.
.@scott_colom ran a good campaign here in #Mississippi, and I congratulate him on his victory. The people of Mississippi have spoken, and we @Republicans respect their decision. I am deeply grateful to Senator @cindyhydesmith and her staff for their years of faithful service to our state, and to the countless Mississippians who worked tirelessly, day in and day out, on behalf of this cause in which we so deeply believe. While elections may determine who holds public office, they do not define who we are as a people nor diminish the principles we hold dear. Tomorrow, the sun will rise over the same Mississippi we loved yesterday, and with humility in our hearts, faith in our people, and confidence in our convictions, we will continue working together to make this state and our country better than before.”

Texas did all that was asked, checking citizenship status and sharing records with the DHS. Nonetheless, the huge blue wave has made it now a Democrat controlled state.
The blue wave happened everywhere, regardless if they were "Republican controlled" states complying with Trump's demands or not.
Other states that complied with these demands and nonetheless flipped the governorship/senate-seat to a Democrat are: Georgia, Iowa, Ohio, Kansas, South Carolina, North Carolina, Mississippi.
Stephen Miller just laid it out.
Not one Democratic-controlled state has checked the citizenship status of its voter file or shared records with DHS.
Federal law requires citizenship to vote. Multiple states refuse to cross-check their rolls against available data. Partial audits elsewhere have already found non-citizens registered.
The refusal to verify is public. The size of the problem is the open question they won’t answer.

What a monumental lie.
🚨 Stephen Miller says the scale of welfare fraud is SO MASSIVE that eliminating it alone could balance the ENTIRE federal budget
"The amount that has been fleeced from us is in the HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS of dollars."
"We could balance the federal budget if the only dollars that went out of the treasury went to individuals who were properly, lawfully, correctly eligible to receive them."
This should infuriate EVERY taxpayer.
