Millions of workers are toiling away from their families over the holidays. So thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail. Pay all workers a living wage.

Zelenskyy calls Russia’s claim of a strike on one of Putin’s residences a “complete fabrication,” a lie designed to sabotage diplomacy, justify more attacks on Kyiv, and excuse Moscow’s refusal to end the war. He warns the world must not stay silent as Russia tries to derail peace.

Q: If DOJ doesn't release the files it has by next Friday, is there anything Congress can do to compel that to happen?
MASSIE: It's a crime if they don't. This is a new law with criminal implications if they don't follow it.

The House Oversight Committee just released 19 more photos from the Epstein estate. Several of them are deeply disturbing, but most of them just show what we already knew: that this case will cross party lines and that everyone, whether team red or blue, will need to support the victims.
