While Hegseth and his friends get reprimanded for disrespecting the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, these loyal US vets—deported by Trump—honor the country they defended.
Shame on this administration.
HE KNEW.
Scott Colom had faith in himself, but more important--faith in the people of Mississippi.
"Faith will win the victory."
(plus talent, teamwork, $$$, and a few breaks)
Congratulations, Senator-elect Colom!
“Black Americans have also been, and continue to be, foundational to the idea of American freedom.
More than any other group we have served, generation after generation, in an overlooked, vital role: It is we who have been the perfecters of this democracy.”

Trump: "Does anybody really believe that this 'Election' was honest. How could the Polls be so wrong??? Some early voting 'dumps' were so large that it was impossible to win, no matter how many people went to vote.
It’s all about the machines, which are far more important than the voter! President DJT"
Scott Colom saw something in Mississippi everyone else was missing.
This is him in MARCH, explaining how and especially why he was going to win.
Watch this. He wasn’t guessing. He knew his people. He knew Mississippi.
Ramaswamy lit his political career on fire in a way that revealed not only his slimy, low character—but also how politically inept he is.
He will never get the stench of that ad off him. And he shouldn’t.
Q: I’m told that Vivek Ramaswamy left you a congratulatory phone call. Have the two of you spoken at all?
Governor-elect @AmyActonOH: We can’t normalize behavior like this. It was so beyond the pale, so no, I have no intention of speaking to him. Leaders’ words matter and we need to hold folks accountable.
When I met him last February, Scott Colom had a boundless optimism about his race for the Senate, and a hugely upbeat attitude about his state’s potential.
In March, I asked him: What if you win?

It’s such a huge opportunity for Dems. Trump is so unpopular he got people around the country who hadn’t thought about Democrats in decades much less listen to them—to open the door.
Now Dems have to follow up, get to work, listen, connect, fix things, do stuff right.
As of a few hours ago, Texas had not elected a Democratic statewide official in 32 years.
This morning, all statewide executive offices in Texas will be held by Democrats.
The people of Texas repudiated decades of Republican governance.
And redrew the national political map.
“Now the ears of their ears awake, and the eyes of their eyes are open”
I hosted a focus group last night of Americans who voted for President Trump in 2024… But are voting for Democrats in 2026.
Here is what they'd tell POTUS if he were watching: "I expected you to #DrainTheSwamp, not become one of the biggest swamp monsters ever."
I spoke more with @ScarboroughNow this morning on Election Day.
I met Scott Colom in February.
His integrity was plain to see; his optimism was infectious.
A political talent, for sure. But—c’mon.
At that event, James Carville told me Colom would win. I respect James, but—c’mon.
Later, he came on my podcast and was great. But—c’mon.
And now here we are, Mississippi has not elected a Dem Senator in 44 years. And he was a segregationist.
C’MON.
Medgar Evers was killed in his driveway because he refused to accept a Mississippi where some were denied the right to vote.
He stood with thousands who marched, organized and sacrificed so future generations could have a voice. We owe it to them not to take that right for granted. On Tuesday, honor their legacy. Vote.
I spent a couple of days in Ohio.
Did it feel like a blue wave?
At Cleveland's Public Auditorium, where Barack Obama spoke? Sure.
But in Medina, Lorain, and Ohio City? Not so much.
Ohio Voters Are Exhausted. Here's What They Want.
