“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.”
Beyond parody.

Susan Collins refusing to meet with Hegseth's accuser is just so par for the course. She wants to appear like a moderating force, but she'll dime out women every time.

Two senators have introduced a constitutional amendment that would establish term limits for Supreme Court justices, a long-shot escalation of the congressional effort to overhaul the nation’s highest court amid ethics scandals and sinking public approval.
Supreme Court term-limits amendment proposed by Sens. Manchin, Welch
The long-shot proposal by Sen. Peter Welch (D-Vermont) and outgoing Sen. Joe Manchin III (I-West Virginia) would impose 18-year term limits on new justices.

Trump just nominated Kash Patel — who lied about the 2020 election being stolen and lied about the existence of a "deep state" out to get Trump — to be his FBI director.
Reminder: The position requires Senate confirmation.

I was in a meeting when Gaetz news came in. Colleague said a report about a second woman might have been what forced him out. I said, you sure that wasn't Hegseth, because I'd just heard about a second woman in that story. And he said, no Gaetz. But that's kind of where we are.

Something that seems to be very overlooked with Gabbard, yes she is pro-Russian, but she has throughout her career done even more propaganda work trying to normalise the Assad regime.

If the House Ethics Committee will not release the Gaetz report, the Senate should just redo the investigation publicly during the confirmation hearing.

Democrats are just incredibly, self-defeatingly bad about challenging their too-old members.
Multiple members ran for re-election this year despite being visibly ailing. One (Bill Pascrell) died after the primary - he was seeking a new term at age 87.

Trump has "so far declined to let the Federal Bureau of Investigation check for potential red flags and security threats to guard against espionage — instead relying on private campaign lawyers for some appointees and doing no vetting at all for others."
Trump ignores transition rules. It’s a ‘hostile takeover,’ ally says.
