CNN: “House Democrats are demanding that the Interior Dept retain documents related to Trump’s construction projects around DC after whistleblowers warned that key paperwork has already been destroyed before Democrats take power.
… The warnings come as the Trump admin is signaling it will accelerate plans for moving ahead with the projects - a key part of what the president sees as his legacy - to lay as much groundwork as possible before the Democrats take over Congress in January.
… Rep. Jared Huffman, ranking Democrat on the House Natural Resources committee, plans to issue letters to the Interior Dept as well as other federal agencies and private companies, requesting that they “preserve all records and data responsive to oversight” the congressional panel oversees.
… Multiple credible whistleblowers have approached Huffman’s committee in recent weeks to voice concern that the Interior Dept is getting rid of records in anticipation of forthcoming scrutiny. The agency oversees much of the national parkland Trump wants to use for his projects.”
… President Zelenskyy, while the latest round of negotiations takes place between Russia, Ukraine and the US in UAE:
“The quickest way to end Russia’s war is to hold the positions and move to discussions. What is very important here is that we decided: stop where we are, it’s a ceasefire, and we go to the diplomatic track. We end the hot stage and people stop dying.
When you hold, you speak about the contact line, slow down the pace of mobilization; the economy begins to work. You are in discussions. Dialogue is better than guns. That's why the best way to end this war is to exchange guns for words.
Of course, you will have thousands of questions. How to stop? Where to stand? What is the mandate of the monitoring mission? What is demilitarized? What does it mean? What do we need for this? Europeans. Reconstruction. Where to get the money?
Thousands of questions, but this is the format to stop the war – ceasefire. If Putin doesn't want a ceasefire and says, ‘No, I want a long plan, with different questions, both difficult, sensitive, and not. And then, when we sign this long plan, we will stop the war,’ it simply means he doesn't want to stop the war.”
… Telegraph: “Gianni Infantino could be hauled before Congress within weeks.
Democrats are preparing to escalate their investigation into FIFA’s ties to Trump, with congressional subpoenas potentially issued as early as January.
… Jamie Raskin, who is in line to chair the powerful House Judiciary Committee, is examining fresh allegations involving Infantino, including revelations that he asked a FIFA intermediary to help secure a work permit for a maid at his luxury Miami home.”
… DC reporter Natalie Fertig: I asked one national Republican Party insider if he thought Stephen Miller would give Vance any space to separate himself from Trump on some things ahead of a 2028 presidential run: “He will dress the VP up as an ICE agent and put him in charge of a raid squad before he allows the VP to get away with that.”

Sacrificing our wildlife, our waterways, and Indigenous communities will never be acceptable, and it’s especially outrageous to rush the BAAJA Bill through in a lame-duck session.
We urge every U.S. senator, including @SenSchumer and @SenGillibrand, to vote NO on this dangerous legislation and to publicly oppose it.

New Bill
Republicans and Democrats will make it much much more difficult to oppose massive increase in Data Centres
This Bill will exacerbate the suffering of communities on the frontlines of this Data Centre and fossil fuel expansion

#BAAJA does very little on affordability — $5 per household per month on average 16 years from now — but I guess the strategy is to keep repeating the lie until folks lose track of the truth?

Thank you @DebHaalandNM for opposing BAAJA and standing up for our environment, public lands, and Indigenous communities!

“An impeachment vote cannot come soon enough”
and then misses the vote lol
Since his nomination, I have been sounding the alarm about Hegseth’s dangerous incompetence.
An impeachment vote cannot come soon enough.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Rep. Marilyn Strickland did not vote on the House motion to refer the Pete Hegseth impeachment resolution (H. Res. 1655) to committee.

Democrats across this country showed up last week.
In the face of threats of violence, in the face of voter suppression, they showed up.
There is zero excuse for what happened tonight.
djconn retweeted
WE GIVE THEM A BLUE TSUNAMI AND THEY IMMEDIATELY START SQUANDERING IT IN MULTIPLE WAYS
These 11 House Democrats missed the vote that blocked Hegseth’s impeachment effort. Just seven voting against it would have defeated the motion:
Julia Brownley (CA)
Lou Correa (CA)
Laura Gillen (NY)
Steven Horsford (NV)
Jonathan Jackson (IL)
Nancy Pelosi (CA)
Brittany Pettersen (CO)
Melanie Stansbury (NM)
Haley Stevens (MI)
Marilyn Strickland (WA)
Frederica Wilson (FL)

These people are so hopelessly delusional holy shit
Tick Tock. Tick Tock.
Unconfirmed reports are circulating that even Democrats are expressing private concerns — in texts, emails, and notes — that they do not believe the results.
There are also allegations that people inside the syndicate itself are worried the fraudulent totals went too far. That the numbers no longer match the people who exist, and that the scale is no longer something they can quietly manage.
If those reports hold, it means the same people who administered the architecture, collected the paper, and treated the documents as optional are now privately acknowledging what citizens have been saying out loud: the totals do not reconcile.
The instruments are already written. The Director of National Intelligence must deliver the assessment under Executive Order 13848 no later than December 18, 2026. The Department of War has the final say. Federal databases by county already exist that can surface what the paper hid.
The math does not care who is nervous. The math is not optional.
Tick Tock. Tick Tock.

I just don’t think Democrats understand people’s frustration and anger.
Their response to this historic moment is process, rather than understanding the occasion and rising to it.
People don’t believe the system is functioning anymore and don’t feel they have any agency.
This isn’t sustainable. Something will have to give and when that happens, I don’t think anyone can control the outcome.
🚨BREAKING: Bloomberg reports that @PattyMurray @SenateApprops is agreeing with Senate GOP to fund Hegseth and the Iran War into 2027 — presumably with @Senschumer's support
@ChrisVanHollen @TimKaine @SenSanders @SenatorBennet have all urged Dems to refuse that Iran war funding

The vote to impeach WAR CRIMINAL Pete Hegseth failed because 11 Democrats couldn’t be bothered to show up.
Hakeem Jeffries made sure not to whip the votes, he does not deserve to be House Speaker, he serves the uniparty.
This Democratic Party has already proved itself USELESS.

Were not freaking out, we’re pissed.

Per several members: Some of the House Democrats who missed the Hegseth impeachment vote were on their way back from an Elect Democratic Women event at a venue about 1.5 miles down Pennsylvania Ave but got caught in a bumper-to-bumper traffic jam on Independence Ave. (the road on the House side of the Capitol complex).
Some members found other ways to get back to the Capitol because their cars were effectively stopped on the road. One got out and walked. Another got dropped off on the Senate side to avoid the traffic.

Pathetic. Voters just handed them the House and this is what they do while Massie is the only Republican with balls voting against burying the Hegseth articles. People didn’t give them the majority to sit on their asses until January.
