I spoke yesterday evening with my wonderful friend & colleague Chris Murphy. He sounds upbeat & positive, making progress toward a full recovery. I’m looking forward to his return. We need him in the fight.

NEW: Another day, yet another new no true bill in Washington for DOJ prosecutors. This one was again on voter fraud allegations. In the past two weeks alone, prosecutors in Washington have failed to secure indictments in at least three cases. This is an extraordinary acceleration of the troubles that the Justice Department, and the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington in particular, has had with grand juries for nearly two years. w/@alanfeuer nytimes.com/2026/11/09/us/po…

Just filed a discharge petition with @RepLiccardo to force a vote and protect Afghan allies in the U.S. Many Afghans put their lives on the line to protect American servicemembers like me. It’s a moral & national security imperative that we keep our promise to them.

By @business: "Nvidia’s tabulations, as relayed to the US government, undercounted the number of chips it had sold to Megaspeed via hardware partners by 50,000 units, according to trade records analyzed by Bloomberg. That’s worth billions of dollars." bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Premiums skyrocketed. Medicaid got cut. Rural hospitals closed. All thanks to a bill Republicans called “beautiful.” Democrats are going to fight to repeal the cuts and make health care affordable.

3) $NVDA vouches for Megaspeed - its largest SEA chip buyer, under U.S. and Singapore investigation - as having no Chinese ownership and free of diversion concerns. We uncovered documents, however, that suggest Megaspeed was financed by Alibaba through a Singapore shell company.

Trump’s Board of Peace acknowledges that the disasterous winter storm flooded tens of thousands of tents and temporary shelters in Gaza - and that Israel has blocked the shelter materials needed to avoid the horrific and needless suffering of Gaza’s civilians. What they omit is that Israel even has blocked NRC, as the humanitarian shelter coordinator, access to Gaza and removed our longstanding registration in Israel. History will judge this severely.

News: Dem Rep. Haley Stevens, who enraged Democrats by endorsing GOP Senate candidate Mike Rogers, spent the vote series tonight in the Republican cloakroom, per multiple sources. This was the first vote series post election. Multiple reporters from The Sun stopped by her office today and it appeared to be closed.

not impossible.
So was Trump extorting Huang, b/c he knew about Huang's mistress being a Chinese gov't spy? Huang gave/donated more than $25 million to various Trump's causes & dinner w/ Trump at Mar-a-logo. Thick as thieves. NOTHING would surprise me.

We don't know for sure that Trump did *nothing*. He very likely sought to leverage this information for personal gain.
“He said he absolutely no idea that the person in question was a spy." Well that’s kind of the point of being a spy. The question isn’t what Huang knew. The point is our government knew she was a spy. Trump didn’t care. He did nothing. Trump: Making Chinese Spying Great Again.

BREAKING: CIA Director John Ratcliffe and Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton briefed the Gang of Eight on highly classified plans on Iran today. The Gang of Eight is briefed only in extraordinary circumstances, with the last such briefing on February 24, four days before the war began. "The briefing was primarily about Iran," Jeffries says.

L*tnick deserves the impeachment treatment.
BREAKING: The US Commerce Dept was approving sales of Nvidia, $NVDA, chips to companies in China which either did not exist, were on the sanctions list, and/or had ties to China's military, per NYT

This is true. Here is the @nytimes story from Oct. 2025: nytimes.com/2025/10/09/techn…
The strangest thing about the whole Jensen Huang story is that it first appeared in virtually every detail over a year ago (in the NYT). In all the time since no-one seems to have cared. Did no-one... notice?

As a former US Capitol Police Officer, current detective, and future prosecuting attorney, I can say from my soul that this person is a stain on our national soul.
Trump: I pardoned the J-Sixers. I don't think any group has been treated more unfairly than them. Ross Douthat: Even the ones who attacked police officers? Trump: There were some who got rough, but [capitol police] were rough to them too.
