President-elect Trump's appointments part II

  • HELLO AGAIN, Guest! We are back, live! We're still doing some troubleshooting and maintenance to fix a few remaining issues but everything looks stable now (except front page which we're working on over next day or two)

    Thanks for your patience and support! MUCH appreciated! --Brett (BamaNation)

    if you see any problems - please post them in the Troubleshooting board!

The House is currently 218-213 with four vacancies. Two of them are for Democrats who died. Both seem to be very safe for them.

The other two are in Florida. One is Matt Gaetz’ seat. He won with 66% of the vote in November against the same person who is running for the Democrats in the special election. The Republican running has the advantage of not being Matt Gaetz so he should win.

The other is for Michael Waltz’ seat. Waltz also had 66% so it shouldn’t be a problem for the new guy.

Both Florida special elections are Tuesday. The other two have one in Texas with no set date yet and one in Arizona set for September.

Stefanik got 62% so her seat is pretty safe.

The Democrats are making a lot of noise about having a chance in Florida. But unless Trump does something monumentally stupid this weekend (not impossible) I don’t see them being close.

So worrying about one seat seems a bit overblown.
Gaetz's seat is in Fla 1 so its basically South Alabama

Kristi Noem (PR spot):
Human traffickers. Drug Smugglers. 18th Street Gang members. Spent the morning in Phoenix with our brave @ICEgov and Arizona law enforcement arresting these dirtbags and getting them off of our streets.

Ruben Gallego:
1. Close your ejection port.
2. If you have no rounds in the chamber why do you have a magazine inserted?
3. If you have rounds in the chamber or in the magazine why are you flagging the guy next to you?
4. Stop deporting people without due process.

JUST IN: FBI Director Kash Patel absolutely torches former Trump impeachment manager Dem Rep. Madeleine Dean to her face.

Dean: "When can I, a former impeachment manager, expect the FBI at my door?"

Patel: "You want to know who was targeted by a weaponized FBI? Me."

Dean: "Should we worry more about your memory or your veracity?"

Patel: "We should worry more about your lack of candor. You're accusing me of committing perjury. Tell the American people how I broke the law and committed a felony."

"Have the audacity to actually put the facts forward instead of lying for political banter so you can have a 20-second donation hit."


I hate these committees, no matter who is being questioned. Does anything useful ever come from these?

REPORTER: You just announced a new nominee for US Surgeon General who never finished her residency, and is not a practicing physician. So can you explain why you picked her to be America's top doctor?

TRUMP: Because Bobby thought she was fantastic ... I don't know her
Real doctors will not push "Bobby's" germs don't cause illness ideas. Can't have them around HHS.
