Look! I think Amazon is saying if you buy my book, you can be free of Amazon Music for 90 days! (I'm already free of Amazon Music, but I own the book.) Everyone go look. Then have a look at the listing and maybe preorder. (My books are 100% AI-free, but evidently Amazon isn't.)
Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who is looking forward to MAGA Mike Johnson moving "back to Shreveport and start a lawn business," since he said he would if he lost the majority.
And he did lose it. By A LOT.
Get your ass out, Mike.
Raskin: Well, AOC and I have a $50 gift ban bill, which has been on the back burner for years under the Republicans.
In Congress, we are all governed by a $50 gift ban. And we can’t accept anything much more than a baseball cap. And most people are scared to do that. We just don’t take gifts.
Meantime, at the Supreme Court, they’re collecting hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars in so-called gifts from people who have a tremendous interest in the work of the Supreme Court. They take trips around the world. They take luxury vacations. They get, in Justice Thomas’s case, a $400,000 recreational vehicle, a motor coach.
I think Justice Thomas also picked up private school tuition for a great-nephew. I mean, just outrageous things. Members of Congress would go to jail for any of those things, and they’re just doing it.
So the $50 gift ban applies to Congress. It theoretically applies also to people in the executive branch, and it must apply to people in the judiciary, in the Supreme Court
American patriot Thomas Massie may soon be leaving Congress, but we will also soon have 260 House Democrats and 56 Senate Democrats who will make damn well sure Trump and his sicko friends don't get away with this cover-up any longer.

Pete Aguilar is calling out Trump’s handling of disaster aid and pledging to fight for communities needing relief. How cruel to make people facing a disaster worry about politics, too.
Where someone lives should never make them less worthy of help.

🌊 SUPER IMPORTANT: Democrats swept to power in the states.
They’ll hold a majority of governorships for the first time since 2010 and a majority of AG offices. They flipped 500+ state legislative seats and now control 51 chambers. Democratic trifectas outnumber GOP trifectas and cover 180M+ people.
11 House Democrats missed Tuesday night's House vote on a 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗛𝗲𝗴𝘀𝗲𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁.
The motion failing would keep proceedings going and advance them to 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙣𝙚𝙭𝙩 𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙥 - 𝙖 𝙃𝙤𝙪𝙨𝙚 𝙛𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙧 𝙙𝙚𝙗𝙖𝙩𝙚.
Hegseth was never going to be impeached on Tuesday - House Dems don't have the numbers right now.
𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙮 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙞𝙣 𝙅𝙖𝙣𝙪𝙖𝙧𝙮.
I've seen multiple people speculating about whether the Dems missing the vote was somehow planned by AIPAC, even though there is 𝐙𝐄𝐑𝐎 evidence to support that.

A week after Election Day, one thing is clear: our elections were safe, secure, and accurate thanks to the tireless efforts of folks across our state and country.
Thank you to everyone who did your part to make sure every voter’s voice was heard!
House Republicans celebrated passing a veterans bill on Veterans Day while advancing cuts that leave veterans with less money and higher costs. Disgraceful. Call your rep & demand they protect the benefits veterans earned.

The 2026 Midterms were a LANDSLIDE.
Biggest in 52 years.
Historically HUGE.
Way bigger than any recent midterm election results.
That means Democrats have a MANDATE.
Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
WOW! Abdul El-Sayed destroys Donald Trump in this interview.
Q: You recently called Trump the dumbest effing guy who ever was president.
AES: True.
Q: You've also said Democrats should drop the decorum and treat the president as the unserious fool that he is.
AES: True.
Q: Why are you taking that approach?
AES: Because he's a bully alongside being a narcissist. And the only way you deal with bullies is to stand up to them.
