Here's Dana White slapping his wife in the face multiple times and shoving her. This administration platforms and protects abusers, predators and pedophiles.

🚨JUST IN: MSNOW’s Jacob Soboroff just eviscerated Stephen Miller, laying out the horrific details of how he masterminded Trump’s most demented policies.

Miller is single-handedly responsible for Renee Good and Alex Pretti’s deaths. I had no idea it’s even worse:

Governor DeSantis says the NUMBER ONE reason Republicans lost is corruption like Susie Wiles lobbying schemes, insider trading and prediction markets.

DeSantis says you are going to find out the extent of it when Democrats start investigating.

“Think about it. You show up to Congress. You've never displayed any investment acumen in your life. All of a sudden, you're meeting Warren Buffett with this suspiciously timed trade.

Oh! A company that is actually under one of your committee's jurisdictions. That is just something. And then you see all the other things. And you're going to see a lot more in the news, I think, in the next few months. And that's going to be the focal point, probably, of the Democrats' investigations and oversight.

But the reality is that was the number one issue that voters thought was important. It was even more important, if you look at the polling, than economy. And that was very high, too. And then it was just general lack of confidence in Republicans beyond that.

I get elected to Congress in 2012, sold the stocks. I’ve never traded a stock in elected office. Why? Because I don't want to be in a situation where I do something and then, oh, you did this and you voted this way, you did that. I’ve never done it.

I declined the pension as a member of Congress and the health care. In governor, we've increased pay for state employees a bunch of times. I never took it for governor. My salary is the same as it was there.

The idea that public service is a way to leverage power to enrich yourself was anathema to what our founders believed.

And so I've tried to lead by example with how I behave. But what you're seeing in Washington is clearly not consistent with what our founders believe was necessary to kind of create a foundation for a successful republic. So I think we should ban the congressional stock trading.

You should not allow them to be making money on prediction markets. You should not be able to allow the way the lobbyists and everything happens. So there's definitely things that need to be cleaned up.

Republicans should be leading this. Weren't we the ones saying, drain the swamp not a few years ago? And yet the Democrats now are able to take that and they're making hay out of it. But that was a big issue.

Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.”

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Republican Senator Ron Johnson just went on Fox News and admitted there is RAMPANT corruption within the Trump Administration. Every American needs to see this.

Garcia: "Todd Blanche is not Stephen Miller's lawyer. He's not the lawyer of the president, even though in his head that's what he wants to be ... he's been involved in leading this White House coverup related to the Epstein files."

Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed: “How is it that we should be engaging with a country that is using our money to do terrible things, war crimes at the minimum, genocide at the maximum? My approach is simple: treat the government of Israel the way you would treat any other government that did the same thing. My family comes from Egypt and I want to do the same thing with Egypt. Egypt violates human rights law. Egypt shouldn’t be getting $3.3B of our tax dollars”

[Marco Foster @MarcoFoster_]

Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed on Iran: “There is one person in the world that has been trying to get this war fought for nearly all of our lifetimes. It is the Prime Minister of a foreign government. Gets invited to the Situation Room where he gets to dupe the dumbest fucking guy who ever was president and then now we’re in a war that everybody could’ve told you was a dumb idea to fight”

While the wealthy and well-lobbied feast on inside information and official favors, America's forgotten families are treated to systemic corporate disrespect and official indifference, working harder and harder while the treadmill just gets faster and steeper, and the bills get higher and higher.

[Michael McFaul @McFaul]

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.

AG Todd Blanche: "You have Garcia minutes after Stephen Miller was promoted to chief of staff telling him to 'lawyer up.' Well I'll tell you what. Stephen Miller has a lawyer. It's me."

[FactPost @factpostnews]

David Glosser, Stephen Miller's uncle, told CNN his nephew is an "immigration hypocrite":

Our family history is entirely dependent on our ability to escape a terrible situation in Belarus. Had we not been able to enter America when we did, Stephen Miller would not exist. Everybody else who didn't make it to America ended up dying in the Holocaust.

[Anthony Scaramucci @Scaramucci]

I put together a list of everything that broke the back of Trumpism.

The gas prices.
The unsanctioned war.
The massive corruption.
The incompetence.
The tariffs.
Playing nice with Russia.
The cruelty against American citizens.
The overly aggressive deportations.
The accidental arrests of American citizens who were Hispanic.
The ballroom.
The reflecting pool that doesn’t reflect.
The Qatari 747.
The aggressive redistricting push.
The threats against our allies.

By the way, I’m scratching the tip of the iceberg.

[Alex Cole @acnewsitics]

Democrats just handed Republicans an electoral ass-kicking, and Trump is outside discussing interior decorating. You cannot make this shit up.

[Gram Slattery @G_Slattery]

Surreal moment happening NOW at the White House

Trump, after hours and hours of radio silence, called in the pool out of nowhere to discuss the ballroom, the golf course and other Washington beautification projects

[Sam Stein @samstein]

What a scene. Trump, holding a mic that keeps having reverb and in deeply subdued form, goes through the various room layouts, floor structures, and beams of the coming White House ballroom. The crowd, dead silent, looks on as a little wind breezes through his hair.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

Trump: "I think it would destroy the Democrat Party if they did that -- impeachment for no reason. What, for having a successful country? Our country is more successful right now than at any time in history. Watch the beam go up."
