BREAKING: SWEET KARMA! Democrat Scott Colom, who is about to win the Mississippi Senate seat, only ran after his MAGA opponent stopped him from obtaining a lifetime federal judge position! This is one of the most glorious backfires in American history... Back in November of 2022, President Biden nominated Colom to the federal district court in northern Mississippi. He received support from the state's senior senator, Republican Roger Wicker. But Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith, who Colom is now leading by 1,764 in the vote count from Tuesday, refused to support the nomination. In fact, she blocked the Senate from even considering him by withholding her blue slip, an old Senate custom that lets one home-state senator veto a judge. She defended her indefensible move by insisting that he couldn't be trusted with such power because of past support for transgender rights. In reality, she was just pandering to the racist MAGA base by blocking a Black Democrat. But if she hadn't blocked him, Colom would be a judge right now. Instead, he's poised to take Hyde-Smith's seat, flipping a seat that a Democrat hasn't been able to win since 1972 in a state that handed Trump 61% of its vote in 2024. While the race has not yet been called, if Colom maintains this lead, as he seems likely to do, the seat is his. Please ❤️ and share if you can't wait to see Colom in the Senate!

This is Jon Ossoff. He was just reelected as Senator of Georgia. 💙 He is also a future President of the United States. If you’re not convinced, just listen to him handle business. Ossoff does NOT fuck around.

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.
He has that Obama elocution.

THIS MAN IS SICK! After getting destroyed in the elections, Trump decides to sign an Executive Order to ban anyone from removing the gold in the Oval Office, unless Congress approves of it.
This really just happened. Trump signed an executive order saying no one in the future can make major modifications to the Oval Office or Cabinet Room without Congressional Approval. This comes after he literally tore apart an entire wing of the White House without Congressional approval.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Trump signed a proclamation (not an executive order) designating the Oval Office and Cabinet Room a national monument. The text does not require congressional approval for modifications and explicitly allows presidents to redecorate. whitehouse.gov/presidential-a… apnews.com/article/trump-…
