Can we stop pretending having kids is an accomplishment lol? Like oh wow, he had sex. Really doing the hard work to make society a better place. Also, how many children has he supported being separated from their parents?
Stephen has contributed far more to America at 41 than Abdul El-Sayed will in a lifetime.

Yeah, he clearly needs to store classified information in his resort bathroom to pass that check.
Abdul EL Sayed cannot pass the background check required for the classified senate briefings he would receive as a senator.

In three weeks, Victor will be telling us there’s a war on Christians/Christmas, by the way.

MAGA gets soundly rejected, and they think they are winning by installing a chief of staff who believes ICE should execute people, deport American citizens, and any other number of atrocities. I guess Benny is too busy with his twink(s), he missed how Latinos voted on Tuesday.
I’ve heard from a dozen White House staffers. The Stephen Miller decision is a lightning bolt to the administration. Miller is the intellectual bedrock of MAGA. Good staffers are energized to fight a guerrilla insurgency against DC. One tells me… “This is Trump’s ‘F it’ move”

What do you mean my body fat percentage just reached the "fitness" category instead of "acceptable" range? Progress! Slow but steady!

They really just say the quiet part out loud. And Democrats like Jeffries are like "The American people don't want us to go after Republicans who blatantly violate the law."
The Chief of Staff already has a lawyer. The Attorney General of the United States and the Department of Justice.

My man, this is what we call an echo chamber.
Everyone in the White House keeps texting me: ‘It’s Miller Time’ with excited anticipation. It’s like the dogs have been let off the chain. Good people on the inside are hyped.

You don't need a signature when you are...unemployed.
For the record: we will NOT be putting pronouns in our bio or email signature.

Voters: Hey, let's flip seven Senate seats to include Texas, South Carolina, and Kansas. We're fed up. Trump: Let's elevate a literal white supremacist to be Chief of Staff. That should do the trick!

I remember Bush and Obama losing Congress and realizing they had to change tactics. I hope this White House keeps this up because 2028 will be another terrible year for the GOP if they don't realize this doesn't work.
It is the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders: male & female.

Does anybody want to tell him that executive orders easily cancel other executive orders?

So the voters of Alaska were intelligent enough to write in Murkowski but not intelligent enough to know the difference between somebody labeled incumbent Republican and the one that wasn't with the same name?

Almost as if people vote instead of land.
Kathy Hochul “won” New York.

We now turn to the guy who is now an expert on the pulse of the American people after living in D.C. for like a month.
On the dangers of over-interpreting a loveless landslide.

Confusing how I pay what I pay in premiums with my healthcare and still have to pay $100 for a CT scan. Insane.

I will say that last night still doesn't feel real.

Republicans not even gerrymandering effectively is the icing on the cake this election.

Why is Jake Tapper so annoying, on election nights in particular?

Happy Election Day, America. And remember:

Donald Trump, well known for staying on message and looking out for anybody but himself lol.
Republicans hoped that President Trump would deliver a final closing argument less than 24 hours before the midterm elections. Trump opened his remarks with a lengthy report on “the high-quality material” used to renovate the reflecting pool. on.wsj.com/3V2aogf
