ProPublica dropped the first story in a new series on corruption in Congress, and it starts with Sen. Susan Collins. A defense contractor illegally funneled $150,000 to a pro-Collins PAC. The company’s CEO later pleaded guilty to unlawful campaign contributions.

How I made this in under 35 seconds. Anyone can be an artist with abstract painting. Recipe used is a 1:1 of acrylic paint to Floetrol plus a little water for additional thinning.

A little paint therapy from last night. I used damn near every color on this canvas. I had no plan, just went wherever the vibe took me. 🌈🏳️‍🌈🫶🏽

No one in this regime will face federal criminal accountability unless we reform the Supreme Court first. That's what folks should be running on. That should be the lesson of the Jack Smith prosecutions: it doesn't matter who the AG is.

While we were sleeping, Trump illegally committed a coup in Venezuela. Congress must impeach, convict, and remove him from office.

Expecting democracy from a wannabe dictator is like asking for directions from a person who cannot see.

Hell no, Trump must go.

We’re starting to get statements from the *checks notes* …opposition party?
Jake Sherman: Rep. DEBBIE WASSERMAN SCHULTZ, Florida Democrat, with an interesting statement: "The capture of the brutal, illegitimate ruler of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, who oppressed Venezuela's people is welcome news for my friends and neighbors who fled his violent, lawless, and disastrous rule. However, cutting off the head of a snake is fruitless if it just regrows. Venezuelans deserve the promise of democracy and the rule of law, not a state of endless violence and spiraling disorder. My hope is it offers a passage to true democracy and liberation. This action offers beleaguered Venezuelans a chance to seat their true, democratically elected president, Edmundo González. I'll demand answers as to why Congress and the American people were bypassed in this effort. The absence of congressional involvement prior to this action risks the continuation of the illegitimate Venezuelan regime." 6:03 AM • 1/3/26 • 10K Views

Jack Smith just told Sen. Chuck Grassley AGAIN that he’s ready to testify publicly about his investigations into Trump. His lawyers say he’s simply waiting on DOJ authorization and wants Americans to hear the facts directly. Why are Republicans stalling? Let him speak.

On healthcare, here are facts about the shutdown:

Chuck Schumer (D-NY) brought forth a compromise on the Senate floor: extend ACA tax credits for one year to reopen the government.

John Thune (R-SD) said this was a “nonstarter,” and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) called the proposal “political terrorism.”
From CBS News: Schumer offers to end shutdown in exchange for 1-year extension of health care tax credits Minority Leader Chuck Schumer speaks on the Senate floor on Friday, Nov. 7, 2025. SENATE TV Schumer said Democrats will reopen the government if Republicans agree to attaching a one-year extension of health insurance tax credits, the issue that has been at the center of their demands since the shutdown began. "After so many failed votes, it's clear we need to try something different. What the Senate is doing isn't working for either party, and isn't working for the American people," he said. "Let's find a path to honor both positions." Article continues: Schumer said Democrats want to see an end to the shutdown and want to respect Thune's stance that Republicans won't negotiate on the tax credits until the government is open. He proposed passing a one-year extension as part of a bill to fund the government, before opening broader health care negotiations. "We would like to offer a simple proposal that would reopen the government and extend the ACA premium tax credits simultaneously. And then have the opportunity to start negotiating longer-term solutions to health care costs. Let's do all three," Schumer said, calling it a "very simple compromise." "Democrats are ready to clear the way to quickly pass a government funding bill that includes health care affordability. Leader Thune just needs to add a clean, one-year extension of the ACA tax credits to the CR so we can immediately address rising health care costs," he said. "With this approach, we do not negotiate health care in the shutdown as Leader Thune maintains he wishes," he said. Schumer argued that "all Republicans have to do is say yes to extend current law for one year," saying "it makes sense." "Now, the ball is in the Republicans' court," he said. Senate Democrats joined Schumer on the Senate floor in a show of unity. Thune rejects Democratic offer as a "nonstarter" that "doesn't even get close" Thune told CBS News that the Democratic proposal is a "nonstarter" as GOP lawmakers entered a conference meeting near the Senate chamber. "I think everybody who follows this knows that's a nonstarter. There is no way. The Obamacare extension is the negotiation. That's what we're going to negotiate once the government opens up," he said. "But, you know, a one-year extension along the lines of what they're suggesting, I think everybody knows they're — and without Hyde protections — it doesn't even get close." Thune was referring to the Hyde amendment, which restricts federal funding for abortions. Thune added: "We need to vote to open the government. And there is a proposal out there to do that, and then we can have this whole conversation about health care." Article continues: "I think it's an indication that they're feeling the heat, and they know that their last proposal was unserious and unrealistic," he said. "So I guess you could characterize that as progress, but I just don't think that it gets anywhere close to what we need to do here. And they know it. And I think anybody who's been following this debate knows it too." From CBS News: Graham blasts Democratic proposal as "terrible" and "political terrorism" GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina offered his opinion of the Democratic proposal to reporters at the Capitol. "Terrible. Horrible. I'm not going to keep giving taxpayer dollars to the five largest health care insurance companies under Obamacare to get the government open," Graham said. "This idea of flooding insurance companies for another year to open up the government is ridiculous," he added. "It's political terrorism, and it needs to stop."
