Looking like 217-215 repub to dem in the House til late Spring when Waltz, Stefanik and Gaetz seats go thru special elections. Tight!. Mike Johnson better hope everyone in the house on the red side stays health and keeps their attendance high.
 
Oh shoot, MTG uncovered the Dems' master plan... steal a couple US House seats while the Pubs retake the White House and Senate. Some real 4D underwater chess there.
 
From the Wall Street journals What's News podcast.

As far as reasons to vote for Trump is concerned, this is a new one.

Liz Essley Whyte: Yeah, that's right. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. kind of coined a new slogan for what his movement represents and it's Make America Healthy Again. And then when I was reporting this, there are a lot of people with similar stories of how they got to supporting Make America Healthy Again. One of them that I think typified the people I talked to was Ashley Taylor. She as a teenager had some really bad back problems and the interventions that doctors recommended actually ended up making her worse. She had a surgery that she was just reeling in pain from and she finally just decided to get away from their recommendations, and turn to acupuncture, and kind of positive thinking and yoga, and that helped turn her pain around. So then during the pandemic, she was again drawn to information from non-traditional sources and she listened to Kennedy, and she read part of his book. And by the time this campaign was in full swing, she was listening to a lot of his messages on food and drugs, and how those things had been co-opted by Big Pharma. And she really agreed with them and she ended up deciding to cast her vote for Trump, because of that in part.

Luke Vargas: And Liz, whether it's people like Ashley or more broadly the two cohorts I was describing earlier, there is something unique here politically, right? It's not just Democrats or Republicans we're talking about, I noticed neither of those words actually came up in the article that you wrote. This is a group of people that straddles traditional political boundaries.

Liz Essley Whyte: Yeah, that's right. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. kind of coined a new slogan for what his movement represents and it's Make America Healthy Again.

Grift and greed...in the Republican Party?!?

I am so shocked I will need to take the rest of the day to recover.

Trump features Jill Biden in new ad for fragrance: 'Enemies can't resist'

President-elect Donald Trump has released a new fragrance line for men and women to commemorate his historic election victory, and he found an unwitting model to help sell it.

An online ad for the fragrance features a viral photo of Trump and Jill Biden, with the first lady seemingly smiling at him at the reopening ceremony of the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris on Saturday.

"Here are my new Trump Perfumes & Colognes! I call them Fight, Fight, Fight, because they represent us WINNING," Trump wrote in a post on his social media platform, Truth Social.

"A fragrance your enemies can't resist," reads the tagline.
