Congratulations on the big win, @Scott_Colom! The Senate is getting a devoted public servant who I know will continue working tirelessly for the people of Mississippi. And welcome to the Senate Twins Caucus!
Democrat Scott Colom defeats Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, becoming Mississippi’s first Black U.S. senator since 1881.

Rebecca was sold into sexual slavery before she could walk. Her father - a Lockheed Martin contractor with CIA connections - gave her to a man she calls "Mr. E" as a newborn baby. Mr. E ran a child pornography ring, and Rebecca became his product. From birth to age seven, she was drugged with ketamine, flown across the country, and passed between groups of men who filmed themselves doing things to her that would make a courtroom go silent. Her mother wasn't a victim in this. Her mother was part of it. She beat Rebecca unconscious and sexually abused her herself. The woman who gave birth to her helped deliver her into hell. In the interview, Rebecca says it out loud, and the room stops breathing. They violated her with objects. They shoved a loaded gun in her mouth. They forced a loaded gun inside her body. She was three. They filmed everything. But that's not the detail that breaks her. She watched children die. During these filmed sessions, other kids were murdered in front of her. Their deaths were turned into content - sexualized, recorded, distributed. And after, the men would look down at her and say: if you ever tell anyone what happened here, you're next. They choked her until she passed out. They suffocated her until her body stopped fighting. They dragged her to the edge of death again and again because watching a child almost die was entertainment to them. She says she learned what dying felt like before she learned how to read. At seven, they threw her away. She wasn't rescued. No one came for her. She simply got too old for their taste. Seven years old and already used up. She's 53 now. Fifty years later, and not one person from that network has been investigated. She looks into the camera and asks the only question that matters - how did every single one of them walk free? This woman spent half a century carrying the memory of children being killed in front of her. She was drugged, filmed, violated with weapons, and discarded before she understood what a childhood was supposed to look like. And the people who did it? They're still out there. Living normal lives. Untouched.

This man is an American hero. This soldier loudly and strongly reprimanded Pete Hegseth and his fucking entourage for laughing at the tomb of the unknown soldier. The soldier said, "All visitors will maintain an atmosphere of silence and respect at all times."

Today we honor the men and women who served our nation in uniform. Every freedom we have was earned and protected by their courage and sacrifice. They are the best of us, and they deserve our gratitude. Take a moment to thank a veteran for their service to our country.

We may have had to count One Mississippi, Two Mississippi, but Blue Mississippi sure has a nice ring to it! Scott, you put your heart and soul into this race because you believe in the promise of your state’s people. And they believed in you right back. I’m honored to have stood alongside you. Congratulations!

LaVon and I spent the last two days in Washington, D.C. at new senator orientation. At times it felt like drinking from a firehose. At other times I found myself deeply moved. I want to share a few highlights. We spent time with Democrats and Republicans together, getting to know each other as people. That’s where common ground begins. Over dinners and at caucus meetings, I could feel the beginnings of productive, friendly relationships. On the Senate floor, I sat at a desk where generations of remarkable men and women have sat before me. I am humbled that God, and the people of Kansas, have given me this privilege. I also want to thank my new colleague, Senator Jerry Moran, for hosting me in his office. I look forward to working with him. There’s so much more I could share. For now, I’ll just say it again: I am grateful for this opportunity to serve the people of Kansas and our country.

One of the best SNL skits I have seen in years. The fact that it was actually in Spanish made it so much better. Well done What do you y'all think?
