Oh

Where the hell did the money go, Donald?
Um… Joe Biden’s infrastructure law set aside $25 BILLION for airports and air traffic control.
Now we have a former REALITY TV STAR running the Department of Transportation, begging for another $30 BILLION while planes sit grounded.
Here's a crazy idea: Before demanding another $30 BILLION, how about explaining where the hell the original $25 BILLION went?
And considering this administration's obsession with declaring everything Biden did a failure, I'd especially like to know what's been spent, what's left, and whether any projects were sidelined.
Where the HELL is the press? Why isn't anyone demanding answers? 🤷♂️🙄

It’s times like this you really wish the Trump Administration hadn’t gutted the cyber security agency and chased out so many experienced FBI cyber experts.

Michigan Democrats, I’m running for re-election as your MDP Chair.
It’s been the honor of a lifetime to lead our party, and together, we delivered historic victories. Our work isn’t finished, and it’s why I’m running for re-election to continue leading MDP through 2028!

A lot of people spent a lot of energy dumping on DNC Chair @kenmartin73 because he wasn’t banking money.
Contrary to popular belief, he raised a ton of money. The difference is he spent it. On state parties. On organizing. On infrastructure.
It worked. Thank you, Ken.

Scott Colom’s victory in the Mississippi Senate Race sends a powerful and inspirational message to the world that our country’s efforts to shape a more perfect Union are still fully underway.

🚨 BREAKING: A U.S. Army Tomb Guard was forced to reprimand Pete Hegseth and his group after members of the group were caught laughing and loudly talking at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier on Veterans Day.
“All visitors will maintain an atmosphere of silence and respect at all times,” the guard shouted.
CNN obtained video of the incident.

Dr. Andrews and Dr. El-Sayed are in the building.
ALT An image of Senator-elect Dr. Annie Andrews and Senator-elect Dr. Abdul El-Sayed talking to one another. Below a screenshot of a post from @polisciqueenn reads, "RFK Jr.'s worst nightmare."

The whole country should pay attention to what is happening in Clark County, Indiana.

Garcia responds: "It appears Donald Trump has something to hide. Let's be clear: Congress' authority comes from Article I of the Constitution, not from the permission of the White House … We are a co-equal branch of government and will not be deterred by baseless threats from a weaponized DOJ or from the President's lawyers."
The Trump White House counsel has warned Democratic Rep. Robert Garcia, the incoming House Oversight Committee chair, in a new letter that some of the new majority's investigations could cross the line into criminal behavior.

Exactly why Greg Abbott called to concede before the race was even called.
We were telling everyone including the DGA that we were two points up. Well, we were 7 points up.

It was my pleasure to host Michigan’s Democratic delegation to the 120th Congress at my office this morning — plus @SenGaryPeters in his swan song as senator. The campaigns are over and this dynamic group is ready to get to work for Michigan!

AMEN!!!
At some point, we have to talk about @CookPolitical and other “prognosticators” who had me and other southern candidates labeled as solid R for much of the campaign cycle. They made it much more difficult to fundraise and are part of the reason the South has been neglected for so long.
They’re only a reflection of the past and mysteriously avoid any accountability when they’re wrong. One of their “analysts” was extremely condescending to me (not Jessica) when I tried to make my pitch for why they were wrong about my rating like he knew something about MS politics when he’s never been to the Sip. This attitude hurt Jaime Davis & others so much.

This weekend, President Trump again directed the Department of Justice to investigate me. The next day, @AGToddBlanche went on TV and threatened me.
We’ve seen this movie before. I will not be deterred from standing up against his corruption or calling out his violations of the law.

When I took over as chair of the DNC, we immediately began building up our state parties to prepare for the Blue Wave.
Our record investments in the Democratic Party’s infrastructure helped deliver a historic midterm victory.

You’re the GOAT @kenmartin73!
I can’t believe we matched the Rs 2010 wave size using their own strategy against them. Feels damn good!!!
Way to hit em where it hurts!
