[Rahm Emanuel @RahmEmanuel]

Nvidia’s board is right to act. No one in DC should spike the ball on the 20-yard line.

Their corporate board has shown more accountability and courage in a matter of days than anyone in the Trump Administration.

From the CIA Director to the FBI Director to the Commerce Secretary, they have known all of this for over a year and have refused to act.

But like any Don, when it comes to the Trump White House and money, their only question is what’s my cut?

In the Trump White House, the sign on the Resolute Desk says “the buck stops here” — and it’s clear they mean it literally. For Truman it was about accountability. For Trump it’s all cash and carry.

It’s time for Congress to hold the Trump Administration accountable for selling America’s security to the highest bidder.

@ChrisCoons That is the KEY question.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Despite Jensen Huang’s resignation, Congress must demand answers from Mr. Huang and others at Nvidia about how they may have put U.S. national security at risk.

The Trump administration must also answer for what it did once it learned about Mr. Huang’s relationship with a suspected Chinese intelligence asset. Were government officials told not to investigate because of Trump’s relationship with Mr. Huang? What did Trump know when he personally invited Mr. Huang aboard Air Force One?

Americans deserve to know that those at the highest levels of power are putting America first, not their bottom line or their personal friendships.

[Senator Chris Coons @ChrisCoons]

.@SenWarren and I are demanding that the Trump Administration preserve all records related to NVIDIA’s AI chip exports to China and the reported Chinese spy operation.

We need answers. https://t.co/kSTROJkkfw

[Anne Applebaum @anneapplebaum]

The peace talks are failing because Putin still believes he can win the war, and because Trump, Kushner and Witkoff encourage this belief. By pressuring Ukraine, not Russia, they are prolonging the conflict, which will kill more people.

[Jim Kessler @ThirdWayKessler]

One of the main arguments for full speed ahead on AI is to beat China. Yet @realDonaldTrump was well aware and didn't care that Nvidea's CEO was involved with a Chinese agent for years. Investigation subject. https://t.co/0Hu3HBHjxP

Schumer has the votes, he tells @pkcapitol https://t.co/GfmZRl9gqk

[Vote For Tristan Thomas @VoteTristanThom]

Chuck Schumer flew out to this guy to convince him to run at least 3 times. The night before he accepted, Schumer took him and his father out to dinner.

There's no blue Mississippi without Schumer and Colom.

Bless her heart.

Semafor: Rep. Kristen McDonald Rivet (D-MI) joins the Blue Dogs

[Stacey Abrams @staceyabrams]

I am Mississippi-raised, and tonight, I am overjoyed to congratulate Senator-elect @scott_colom! From the first time we broke bread together in August 2024, I understood his claim on history. He knows that justice and security, that affordability and prosperity are possible for Mississippi. And the people agreed.

This is what happens when the overlooked organize, the discounted turn out, and the silent refuse to be ignored. Now let's get to work.

[Paige Gebhardt Cognetti @PaigeGCognetti]

This election wasn’t a mandate, it was a directive. 

Lower costs. Clean up the corruption. End the war. Stop the tariffs. Reverse the Medicaid cuts. 

That’s what NEPA sent me here to do, and I’m ready to hit the ground running.

[Liam Kerr 🍍 @liamkerr]

Executive who gets it

[Chuck Schumer @chuckschumer]

Blue Mississippi is here. 

Scott Colom is the only person who could’ve gotten this done. I knew it from the moment I met him.

[tré easton @treeaston]

Sen. Scott Colom (D-MS)

[Third Way @ThirdWayTweet]

Kansas. Mississippi. South Carolina.

Is @ThirdWayKessler a prophet?

[Jim Kessler @ThirdWayKessler]

We have a Democrat in a US Senate seat representing the state of Mississippi. God Bless @scott_colom!!!!

[Bill Scher @billscher]

The Hamilton agenda:

End Iran war
Rollback tariffs
Bipartisan health care reform
Unspecified immigration reform
Shore up Social Security trust fund
Reduce national debt

[Jim Kessler @ThirdWayKessler]

Democrats next Congress should mark up the Veronica Escobar and Maria Salazar bipartisan immigration bill and bring it to the House floor. @RepEscobar @RepMariaSalazar
