Somehow Sherman missed that Rep. Garcia announced that he is going to use Congressional subpoenas to coordinate state prosecutions of administration officials, their families and Big Tech executives. In his own words, he said he’s going to do it because he is gay and petty.

Listen to all these great wins Speaker Johnson delivered through the House—with razor-thin majorities, I might add—only to see them denied even a vote in the Senate. And now the same GOP Senate leadership wants to be trusted to lead again? It’s an insult to the American people.

Senate GOP Conference Rule 1 says elections are to take place "at the beginning of each Congress, or within one week thereafter." Thune should announce they'll rehold elections in compliance with the rules this time (and announce honorably, like Johnson, he's not running).

Here’s @StephenM full answer when asked in December 2025 when asked if the chief of staff’s job to tell the president what he doesn’t want to hear:

“No, I wouldn’t say that,” Miller replied, finding fault with my framing of the question and insisting that this president wants to hear everything.

“The chief of staff would never have to encounter the scenario you’re describing. President Trump craves, he loves the every-minute detail of management, having every piece of information, having every side of everything, having inputs into the Oval Office from every square, every quarter, every person.”

As for the president’s staff, Miller said, their job is “implementing the president’s vision, the president’s directions, the president’s agenda, the president’s plans for the future…. We’re just here on his behalf to see that that is done.”

The very survival of the Republican Party may rest on John Thune not being Senate Minority Leader. The situation is absolutely that dire.

One of life's treats is to view our beautiful country from above on a plane and I'm always kind of surprised that so many people close their windows and look at screens instead.

I just narrated this. The producers and crew did the real work. It turned out well. Very compelling story, now being researched in the dirt in Western Pennsylvania.

HOT SHOT DEBUT!!! For the first time ever as an artist, I have the highest-debuting single on the charts with "Stout And High"! This song I wrote when I was 18 brought me my first publishing and record deal. All these years later, it brings me another first: Hot Shot Debut!

While we had a robust conversation about what Republicans can do to block the Democrats’ socialist agenda, the Senate Republican Conference decided to proceed with the leadership elections today. There was no recorded vote for leadership so nobody was given the opportunity to support or oppose the candidates.

During our conference meeting, I made a motion for the conference to agree to stay in Washington to get things done. The conference unanimously agreed to my motion and committed to maximize our time in Washington to get our agenda done and my expectation is that we work every single day for the American people.

Republicans need to wake up and listen to our constituents. We need to have a plan to get things done for the American people before we lose the majority. I am going to fight to keep the Senate in session, working every single day until we confirm every nominee, every judge, and pass critical Republican bills to support jobs, lower prices, secure our elections, and hold Washington accountable.

It would be helpful to know who the 15 were who voted against Thune and his team, and who were the 31 who voted for him.

[Bill Melugin @BillMelugin_]

BREAKING: Sen. Majority Leader John Thune has been re-elected by Senate Republicans and will serve as Senate Minority Leader in the new Congress when Dems take power. Senators Barrasso, Cotton, Capito, and Lankford have all also been re-elected to their positions. Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-OH) will now serve as NRSC Chairman instead of Sen. Tim Scott.

[Ned Ryun @nedryun]

Only DC Republicans would think this is a good idea. . .

[Mollie @MZHemingway]

kind of horrific that any random Republican voter knows that Senate failure is a big contributor to the election loss but the “Senate majority leader” does not.

[Andrew Desiderio @AndrewDesiderio]

INSIDE THE ROOM: Thune tussled with Ron Johnson at one point ahead of the vote on delaying the leadership elections.

Thune interjected to suggest there wasn’t anything he could have done differently during the campaign — “I defy you all to name something I could have done differently,” Thune said, per sources in the room

Thune also said “tell me what I should have done differently” that would have mitigated the GOP losses

[Mollie @MZHemingway]

@AndrewKolvet Me, too. .

[Mollie @MZHemingway]

The idea that Senate GOP could get this brutal ass-whooping and respond by rolling its decrepit leadership back into power is honestly EMBARRASSING. “Let’s keep the same pathetic leadership.” HAVE SOME DECENCY! Step down as a matter of honor! Stop crapping on your own voters!
