There it is:

Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee issues the statement:

“Congratulations to Senator-Elect Scott Colom on his historic win and on becoming the first Democrat to win a Mississippi Senate seat in over four decades. We will work hand in hand with Scott to fight for Mississippians’ health care, costs, and future in the 120th Congress and look forward to welcoming him to our caucus. Scott is a seventh-generation Mississippian, proud husband and father of two, and District Attorney who has dedicated his life to keeping communities safe. He has never stopped fighting for his neighbors, because Mississippi Matters – and he’ll continue to be a champion for Mississippi in Washington.”

Everyone is talking about Texas but holy hell...

Hyde-Smith told Mississippi to pick a different protein. They picked a different Senator instead.

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

@Acyn In 2023, Biden nominated Colom to be a federal judge.

Hyde-Smith blocked him.

Now he he is taking her seat in the U.S. Senate.

Karma.

Ravi Gupta: This guy, Alex Karp, who runs Palantir, I think signaled something we're going to see a lot of coming our way, which is now claiming to have been a progressive the whole time.

Now, in his defense, he back in the day was like a progressive-ish libertarian.

It's so funny that he switched to being a Trumpist Republican when Republicans controlled all of government. Now he's playing up his progressive bona fides.

Seems to be timing it quite interestingly as Democrats take control of Congress. And by the way, his company is heavily dependent on government contracts.

Gupta on the Nvidia spy story: The Trump administration looked the other way. If Trump says he wasn't shown this, that's hard to believe.

I think this is really a corruption story.

Did this woman infiltrate Nvidia in many different ways? Did she get access to Jensen's phones and laptop?

Was Jensen sharing information with her about the conversations that he was having with Trump? And was she then using that with the Chinese government to influence Trump?

They looked the other way with Jensen. What else could they be looking the other way on?

Jason Kander shares a revealing behind-the-scenes story about Chuck Schumer from his 2016 Senate campaign and what it taught him about how Schumer operates politically.

Kander recalls sitting down with Schumer at a Democratic fundraising retreat in Martha's Vineyard. After discussing several items, Kander tried to ask one final question. But every time he attempted to speak, Schumer talked over him.

“After like four tries of this, it became clear to me, like, okay, he doesn't want me to ask this question.”

Kander says he was baffled by the interaction. Afterward, he asked an aide who had worked extensively with Schumer what had happened.

Her explanation?

“He thought you were going to ask for one more thing, and he didn't want to say no. So he made sure you didn't get the chance to ask it.”

Kander concluded: “I've never met another person who would approach a situation that way. And that's just to give me an insight. That's kind of how the guy operates.”

Gupta: You're asking Americans, you're asking law firms, corporations to stand up to Trump. You're asking Americans to stand up against ICE in their communities.

You're telling me you can't stand up to Chuck Schumer when you have a six-year term? Come on.

[Lorraine Evanoff @LorraineEvanoff]

Holy shit!

"Democrats are already setting markers. Scott MacFarlane flagged Rep. Lauren Underwood’s H.R. 10974, which would claw back ICE and CBP money from the “One, Big, Beautiful Bill.”

El-Sayed said Vance’s “one job” at his swearing-in is to swear him in. Then he made Trump an offer on Medicare for All: “Donald. If you’re watching, we can put your name on it. I know you like to put your name on stuff.

Treasury Secretary Bessent and Stephen Miller are living on military bases because of Iranian threats

The New York Times reports that Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Mr. “Economic Fury” himself, has moved from his D.C.-area home to a military base because of Iranian threats. Stephen Miller and other officials are living on bases too. They are scared.

Katie Phang wins big in her Epstein Files lawsuit. In her Epstein Files lawsuit, Judge Emmet Sullivan ordered Trump’s DOJ to turn over withheld FBI notes about a victim who accuses Trump of abusing her when she was about 13. Trump denies it. The judge also ordered DOJ to produce the administrative record behind its Epstein Transparency Act releases “forthwith.” Great work, Katie!!!

A federal judge bars a DOJ attorney over “fraud on the tribunal”. Judge Sanket Bulsara found prima facie Rule 11 violations by DOJ in an immigration enforcement case, citing “bad faith, a deliberate attempt to mislead the Court.” He barred AUSA Thomas Price from the case, required a supervisor to sign every future filing, ordered DOJ to show cause by November 16, and warned of a default judgment against the government if there’s one more false statement. Other U.S. Attorney’s offices say they no longer have enough lawyers to answer habeas petitions from immigrants ICE has detained, because nobody wants to work at this DOJ.

Russia: Russia’s ambassador to the U.S., Alexander Darchiev, has died suddenly at age 66.

Israel: Gadi Eisenkot, leader of the new Knesset majority, sent “Outgoing PM Netanyahu” a letter warning him not to deploy security forces without a clear and immediate threat.

Palantir: Alex Karp told POLITICO Playbook, “I know more about being a progressive than almost anybody on the planet.” Funny how all of these execs who bent the knee are suddenly seeing the light…"

PabloReports: What’s your message to the administration and to the American people about the deported veterans?

Ojeda: I really do believe that we need to find these people, and we need to bring them back because this was unacceptable. These are people that risked their lives for us.

It’s like our interpreters. I think two interpreters have died in ICE custody. This is unacceptable. This is not how we treat the people that stand up for this country. This is not how we treat the people that support this country.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Schiff: When he is on social media, he’s his usual rabid self. And in some of his interviews, it sounds like Trump is on his medication. I suspect that the medicated Trump is only going to last for a short time.
