Senator-elect Sherrod Brown (D) is expected to take his seat by December 15 instead of January 3.
December 15 is the date when Senator Jon Husted’s temporary appointment to the U.S. Senate expires under Ohio state law
Great to connect with Congressman-elect Wes Climer during orientation! We’re coming to Washington from different districts and parties, and I look forward to finding common ground and working together for the people we represent.
Senator Howell Heflin, one of the last democratic senators to come from the Deep South, known to his colleagues as “Judge,” announcing he would not seek another term in 1996.
“We need to return to the traditional value of just being neighborly”
Listen to that old southern draw!
South Carolina WBB forward Chloe Kitts was asked postgame if she views Clemson as a rival, given how lopsided the series has been recently. Kitts: “No sir.” She pauses. “I mean, in football, yeah. But … no.” Gamecocks have won 16 straight vs the Tigers in WBB since 2010
Talarico: The American people cannot wait two years for change, so we must work with President Trump. If President Trump wants the same plaques and portraits as LBJ, we can help make that a reality. We should make the final two years of his presidency the most productive of any American presidency
Wow. Iowa Governor-elect Rob Sand highlights the importance of Democrats taking questions and speaking like normal people by recounting a story with MAGA internet troll Gary Loeffler.
Despite a staffer advising against it, Sand handed this local Republican the microphone at a town hall… and it worked!
South Carolina QB LaNorris Sellers has been upgraded to probable for the Arkansas game as of Thursday night per Shane Beamer

Look how much metro Atlanta's blue footprint expanded between Romney's 2012 win and Ossoff's 2026 victory. Much of the rest of Georgia looks pretty similar on the map, while Atlanta's Democratic strength extends dramatically farther into the suburbs and exurbs.
Thank you Senator @SenatorWicker. I look forward to working with you to improve our beloved state. Mississippi has bestowed on me the honor of a lifetime and I’ll spend every minute doing everything I can to be worthy of that trust. #MississippiMatters
CNN projects Cindy Holscher will be the next governor of Kansas.
“Holscher’s victory means right now more than 75% of the American people are living in states that have a Democratic governor”
He's up for reelection in 28. Now he's trying to distance himself from Trump/Vance. Louisiana can be the next battleground. The Dem barely lost there this time.
Kennedy: I don't think the Vice President did himself any favors by sending out that email or tweet or whatever it was after the election.
This loss was not because of Iran. That might have played a part, but I don't think every statewide Republican in Texas lost their election because they think American foreign policy is too interventionist. I mean, put down the crack pipe.
Kennedy: I've heard Trump say this inflation started under Biden. And that's true. But the economy belongs to Trump. He might not have fathered this child, but he's got to raise it.
Democrat Scott Colom, who just beat 8-year incumbent Cindy Hyde-Smith in my state of Mississippi, is pro-border wall, pro-ICE enforcement, and opposes H-1B visas. He wants a temporary ban on data centers, wants communities to have the final say on building, and opposes federal efforts to remove local authority over their development. He described himself as the only candidate not “beholden to the pro-Israel lobby." He's called for the removal of Flock cameras. He is against the Iran War. He is against trans men in womens' sports and gender transitioning for minors.
“President Trump has done a good job securing the border. The Democrats have failed at that. (Companies) firing a bunch of American workers and hiring foreign workers… those jobs need to be in Mississippi.”
Our Democrats are better than half of Republicans nationwide, lol. I know a lot of RW people in my state that voted for him over "pick another protein," do-nothing Cindy Hyde-Smith. Can you really blame them? Best of luck, @scott_colom. Please put Mississippians and Americans first.
I know everyone is focused on Nvidia, but the U.S. housing market is in a dramatic slump.
Home sales in October fell to the lowest since 2010
(This is sales of existing homes).
Home sales and home building are drying up as mortgage rates remain above 7% (and home prices remain 50% above 2020 levels). There's unlikely to be much relief anytime soon.
This is a big pain point for many young Americans. Spain is currently experiencing strikes and riots over housing unaffordability. It's a warning to the US.
About to take 15,000 petitions to @GregAbbott_TX demanding a special session to limit the Governor’s emergency powers before the Democrats take over!!
THANK YOU to every patriot who signed!!
(As I’ve been calling for since 2022.)
