The Old Guard stands watch through freezing rain, sleet, and blistering heat to honor America's unidentified fallen. Pete Hegseth couldn't even manage five minutes of the same discipline and respect.

Elevating Stephen Miller and Jim Jordan isn't exactly a signal that the GOP is preparing to work with the new Democratic majority.

Nothing better captures the failure of MAGA governance than the return of endemic measles: a preventable reversal of decades of public health progress, fueled by incompetence and anti-science extremism.

Electing Jim Jordan as minority leader suggests the House GOP has learned exactly the wrong lesson from its defeats.

Kudos to the people of Philadelphia for answering hate with unity. Thousands stood shoulder to shoulder with the Jewish community, sending a clear message that love, solidarity, and our shared humanity will always be stronger than division and intolerance.

Every day Pete Hegseth remains in office is another day America's credibility and national security suffer. He dishonors those who serve and projects weakness to the world. It's time for him to go. Now.

Thank you to the @PhillyPolice, the @PAStatePolice, and all of our law enforcement partners for protecting public safety today in Philadelphia. In the midst of blatant antisemitic targeting of Jewish-owned restaurants on the anniversary of Kristallnacht, the City of Brotherly Love showed up to support our neighborhood businesses and prove once again that hate has no place in our Commonwealth.

With the election behind us and the focus shifting to 2028, the rebranding campaign is about to begin. But no amount of spin, revisionism, or reinvention can erase the stain of association with this administration. They can rewrite their messaging. They can't rewrite their record. We won't forget.

At this point we're one announcement away from appointing the winner of a Call of Duty tournament as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs.

Let’s be clear: targeting Jewish-owned businesses in Philadelphia is not activism. It’s antisemitism. And doing so on the eve of the anniversary of Kristallnacht is especially shameful and dangerous. Peaceful protest is a cornerstone of democracy. Harassment and intimidation are not. Enough is enough.

Naming Stephen Miller chief of staff is like looking at a five-alarm fire and deciding the problem is not enough gasoline.

Nothing says "we heard the message and ignored it" quite like naming a white nationalist as chief of staff.

Meanwhile, Putin chose a moment when he believed the world’s attention was focused elsewhere to unleash at least nine bombs on a school in Ukraine, where civilians had sought shelter. This wasn’t just an attack. It was an atrocity. The world must not look away, and those responsible must be held accountable.

JD Vance is the Titanic of Vice Presidents. He tried to outmaneuver the iceberg and somehow negotiated a second hole in the hull.

250 years into the American experiment, the nation is on the verge of electing its first Black Speaker of the House. A historic milestone. And one that's long overdue.

Yes.
One big question that is starting to emerge tonight.. did national Democrats miss a massive opportunity to invest in Florida?
