JUST IN: Mike Johnson plans to swear in Rep.-elect Matt Van Epps on Thursday — less than two days after he won the TN-07 special election.

As a reminder, it took Johnson 50 days to swear in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva.

Hmm. Ghislaine Maxwell is filing a habeas petition challenging her incarceration PRO SE (no lawyers). I guess even David Markus has his limits? Incidentally, she's worried that the release of the Epstein files would be devastating to her case.

This isn't news to me. It doesn't surprise me.
And I'm not scared of trump.

Reading this individual's statement made my blood run cold.
I'm fucking HORRIFIED, not terrified, that trump is in the fucking White House.
Or what's left of it.

🚨 CNBC on latest jobs numbers: "A big miss on ADP payrolls. The private payroll company saying private payrolls shed 32,000 workers in Nov. That's the 4th negative number in past 6 months. The estimate was for +40,000, so the street was off ... this may be coming from being hammered by the tariffs"

Rand Paul: "Secretary Hegseth said he had no knowledge of this and it did not happen. It was fake news. It didn't happen. And then the next day, from the podium of the WH, they're saying it did happen. So either he was lying to us on Sunday or he's incompetent and didn't know what had happened."

Trump says we need to go after drug cartels.

Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on.

And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking.

Trump doesn't care about drugs — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy.

It's a power grab.

We live in a country where restaurants trash thousands of pounds of perfectly good food every day while huge swathes of people live in food deserts and I'm supposed to get upset if someone gets a parking spot they aren't entitled to for 20 minutes? I don't have few enough problems to care about it

A system that does not account for a certain percentage of waste is not a system, it is a public relations presentation

this feels like another iteration of the "what if I give a homeless man money and he buys booze" thing. So then he bought booze, so what, you are not his personal life coach. You did your bit now go live your life.
Balancing "no person with a disability should be denied accommodations" with "it's important to discourage non-disabled people from pretending to be disabled to take advantage of these accommodations" is really difficult and I don't have a great answer for what anyone should do about it.

MS NOW: Are you getting any support from Republican colleagues saying this kind of rhetoric isn't okay?

ILHAN OMAR: No. And it isn't surprising because the Republicans have bent the knee. They've welcomed his disgusting rhetoric. I'm not expecting any of them to develop a backbone now.

Netanyahu continues to starve and kill the people of Gaza. Putin is pretending to negotiate peace while attacking Ukraine. Trump is randomly killing Venezuelan's. They have no desire for peace. It is how they stay in power. Netanyahu, Trump and Putin are now the leaders of the new axis of evil.

I didn't like him before, but when I saw how "Dr." Phil exploited and treated the late Shelley Duvall, I actually began to loathe him.

McGraw is a greasy, opportunistic, con man asshole.

Somehow this is the worst part.

Yet again I'd like to thank the publishing industry, Hollywood, and Yale Law School for ensuring this bigot's rise to prominence.

Trump divided the country, extorted Zelenskyy, tried to steal an election, incited an insurrection, stole confidential documents and banged a porn star. That’s his legacy. He knows he’s incapable of achieving anything good. He’s hoping his ballroom will remind people of him.
