NO EVIDENCE: @LarryOConnor CALLS OUT Hakeem Jeffries’ carefully worded defense of Ilhan Omar against immigration fraud allegations:
“He talked like a lawyer who knows how to say the right thing at the right time at a moment like this to cover his ass.”
“He said there’s no evidence that she committed fraud, which is not the same as saying that she did or did not commit fraud.”
🔥 @LarryOConnor MOCKS Democrats’ traffic excuse for missing the Pete Hegseth impeachment vote and raises a possible connection to a reported PAC reception:
“Those weren’t Democrats who were just refusing on principle to vote for this. No, they didn’t even show up.”
“Interestingly, the PAC Elect Democratic Women, EDW, was having a new member reception from 4:30 to 6:30.”
“That reporting, if it’s accurate, does match up with the the makeup of the women that you’re seeing on the sheet right here who didn’t show up for vote.”
Trump at Arlington on Veterans Day:
“We’re not going to allow anyone to hurt or damage our country with bad, foolish, horrible ideology… And everyone knows what I mean.”
Trump at Arlington on Veterans Day:
“America did not start a war with Iran. Iran has been waging war on America since 1979… It was about time somebody fought back.”

He says he plan on “extending the calendar…”
HOUSE GOP PUTS DEMOCRATS ON NOTICE: “WE WILL GO ON OFFENSE DAY ONE!”
“Democrats may have the majority, but we must and we will go on offense day one.”
Rep. Lisa McClain, flanked by new House GOP leader Jim Jordan, laid out the Republican game plan for the Democrat-controlled House.
“We’re going to hold Democrats accountable. We’re going to challenge their policies and we’re going to give American families a compelling reason to put Republicans back in charge.”
“Democrats have already made their priorities clear and it’s not affordability. Remember, that’s what they ran on? The first thing they said was lawyer up.”
“Tell me how lawyering up helps anybody with affordability.”
“They’re going to be focused on going after President Trump. We are going to be focused on improving the quality of life for every American.”
“That is our mission and that work starts TODAY!”
JIM JORDAN COMES OUT SWINGING AS NEW HOUSE GOP LEADER: “WE WILL BRING THAT FIGHT EVERY SINGLE DAY!”
“Over the next two years, House Republicans will fight for American families. When Democrats offer more government, we’ll offer more freedom.”
“And we will bring that fight in committee, on the floor and on the stump every single day.”
This is @Jim_Jordan's first message after House Republicans elected him minority leader.

JUST IN: John Thune has just been reelected as the Republican leader in the Senate.
The entirety of the Republican leadership in the Senate was also reelected.
TOO COMFORTABLE: @LarryOConnor takes Senate Republicans TO TASK for waiting until after the election to push priorities like the SAVE Act:
“They made a deliberate choice to not do these things before the election, and then they got their clock cleaned.”
“Did the Senate purposefully drag their feet, not engage, not fight, not lead? Because honestly, it’s easier to be in the minority. A lot less work to do. Is that what happened here?”
