Jared Kushner is set to go to Abu Dhabi next week to negotiate for the Trump administration.
Unless and until he gets confirmed by the Senate, that's illegal under the Appointments Clause of the Constitution. We sued to enforce the law. axios.com/2026/11/03/us-russ…

Not to be rude, but for anyone who actually believed Trump's lies about kids getting gender transition surgeries during school, you really should be declared too stupid to vote.
Thankfully, America saw through that bigoted BS on Tuesday.

James Talarico just made a surprise appearance on SNL! The American people love Talarico and the new wave of Democrats coming into power!

Former U.S. Attorney General John Mitchell's booking photo. In 1977, he became the first ex-AG to go to federal prison, serving 19 months for conspiracy, obstruction of justice and perjury while covering for a corrupt president. Just leaving this here.

The depth of the repudiation on Tuesday wasn’t because Americans value cheap gas above all. High gasoline prices were a manifestation of a collapsed experiment in trust, writes Holman Jenkins

"I don’t want Jared Kushner to be investigated because he’s the president’s son-in-law. I want him investigated because he’s potentially laundered and embezzled $2 billion dollars in funds from the governments of Saudi Arabia and the UAE. I don’t want Stephen Miller investigated because he’s a racist ghoul who’s at the center of the Trump brain trust. I want him investigated because he’s a racist ghoul who has violated the due-process rights of millions of people and, potentially, directly violated court orders. I don’t want Pete Hegseth investigated because he’s a toxic psychopath who is unqualified to lead America’s military forces. I want him investigated because he’s a fucking murderer who needs to spend the rest of his life in jail, either in this country or The Hague." thenation.com/article/politi…

🔥 Kimmel put together a montage of Trump’s TOP 10 broken promises. 😂
Trump is NOT going to like this.

Hinojosa NAILED IT. This isn’t about left versus right. It’s about 99.9% of us versus 15 billionaire tech guys who think they own our government.
THAT’S THE REAL FIGHT. 👏

Marco Rubio: "For years to come, there are many people on the right...that are going to be having to explain and justify how they fell into this trap of supporting Donald Trump because this is not going to end well.” (2016)

There’s a reason Congressman Brendan Boyle, the incoming chair of the House Budget Committee, called Russell Vought “the most dangerous man in America that most Americans have never heard of.” Vought wont like what's coming.

I am hearing from Republican sources that JD Vance’s next move is to change his name a fourth time to Ron DeVancis.
Tom Proietti retweeted
The national hunger for change was huge, but it also took exceptional candidates like @scott_colom, who knew and reflected their states very well and organized relentlessly to ride the wave.
And in many red states, including MS, it also took Republican incumbents who assumed the @GOP nomination was tantamount to election and thought the key to nomination was lockstep fidelity to @realDonaldTrump--even when it meant ignoring the interests of folks back home.
It was a perfect storm.

I'm less impressed by how @ossoff speaks (though he's terrific at that too) and more impressed by what he says.
This 2-minute clip is the best explanation of Trump corruption that I've ever heard. His explanation of the Russian dirty deals is so accurate and so clear. He knows the facts cold. And he explains them better than I can.
