Jeffries: "We're committed to moving the first 100 days to keep our word ... to bring about accountability, because we've seen unprecedented corruption that's been visited upon the American people. And we are committed to holding the crooks accountable and making sure that Congress functions like a separate and co-equal branch of government."

The world's attention has been elsewhere. But crazy things have been happening to our climate—and to California's waters—this year. theatlantic.com/science/2026…

Oversight Democrats are ready to take on the crooks, the con men, and the Trump crime family. Lawyer up.

Hinojosa: I say that the left right paradigm just does not meet the moment of our time. What this is about is about 99.9% of us in the same boat against like 15 billionaire tech guys who are controlling government…

There's a fake debate about whether the new Congress will probe Trump corruption. I've talked to the key players in the incoming majority. There's no debate. The investigations begin on January 3.

The work begins now. I’m honored to serve as your next Governor, and ready to build a New Mexico where every family can thrive. Join me at HaalandTransition.com as we get to work.

This is an outstanding summary of exactly where we are with H5N1, how the US has fumbled dealing with it, and the ongoing and increasing risk of reassortment leading to a new human influenza pandemic. As I always say, we are giving this beast of a virus too much room.

For too long, our country hasn’t had enough women in executive leadership positions. Now, we officially have a record number of Democratic women governors — 15! And for the first time since 1992, there are 30 Democratic governors. What an incredible night for @DemGovs!

WARNOCK: When I discovered what happened, I had to FaceTime my 10 year old daughter and tell her for the first time ever in the history of our Republic we have a Black woman who is a Governor.

Zohran Mamdani: “What last night showed us is that Americans are tired of being told that their needs are unrealistic by politicians who’ve been bought by the wealthiest people in the country. This country has elected a new generation of leadership. A generation with a mandate to lower the cost of living, to build not bomb, to never betray the working people who entrusted them with power. I hear often the politics we’re fighting for in New York City are not possible outside of city limits and what last night showed us is that working people are the majority whether we are speaking of Austin or Ann Arbor or Astoria and it is time to put those same people first in our politics”

You know what is among the most effective crime prevention measures? Accountability. So don’t get it sideways and say accountability is a distraction. It’s not. It’s an obligation. Or all this was for nothing. Cuz it will happen again. Accountability. Now.

Vice Admiral Nancy Lacore defied the odds, winning the race for South Carolina’s First Congressional District. Lacore was fired by Pete Hegseth without cause after 35 years of service to our country. She could have retired, but Lacore wasn’t ready to stop serving. Now she’ll represent South Carolina in Congress, and VoteVets is proud to have had her back.

It's the morning after a historic rout, and the Texas GOP is planning to discuss how to use the time they have to take powers away from an incoming Democrat. Expect more of this.
Texas Senate Republicans plan to meet this afternoon to discuss reorganizing the chamber, sources tell @quorumreport. Election of a majority leader and stripping the Democratic Lt Gov of legislative power on the table. Developing...

When everyone was on their back foot in '25, Zohran changed the energy and found a formula for politics that was joyful, disciplined, and unafraid. Completely changed the game.
Americans are tired of being told their needs are unrealistic by politicians who have been bought by the wealthiest people in the country.
