Hmm, where to start.
Trump fired 17 inspector generals overnight, which is illegal, if you still believe in laws. (Guardian link, couldn’t find the AP story on it.)
Hegseth squeaked through the Senate yesterday after President Musk instructed VP Vance to cast the tie breaking vote. Murkowski, Collins and Yertle RINOed out and voted against Fox’s golden boy.
75% of the farm workers harvesting oranges in Kern County, CA didn’t show up for work yesterday after ICE raids in the area. Here’s a graphic from opposition leader AOC on your rights if you’re ICE tries to arrest you. And here’s an article from Teen Vogue (yes) about neighborhood ICE watch.
These 8 Democrats just voted last night to advance the nomination of Kristi Noem for DHS Secretary:
John Fetterman (D-PA)
Maggie Hassan (D-NH)
Tim Kaine (D-VA)
Andy Kim (D-NJ)
Gary Peters (D-MI)
Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH)
Elissa Slotkin (D-MI)
Raphael Warnock (D-GA)— Jonathan Cohn (@jonathancohn.bsky.social) January 25, 2025 at 5:59 AM
I don’t get Warnock or Kaine. There’s going to be a weekend vote on her nomination. These guys are moving fast. For comparison, no Democrat voted to end debate on Hegseth. Moscow Mitch voted for cloture then voted against the nomination. (Edit: As John pointed out in the comments, Fetterman was the only Democrat to vote for the Senate to go into executive session to consider Hegseth’s nomination.)
That’s not all, but it’s probably enough.
Update: Noem nomination passed 59-34, but the roll call hasn’t been posted yet.

I’ve got 3 comments on separate topics I thought I would post. Here’s #1:
Want to know what the actual Congress that passed the 14th Amendment wanted to accomplish with birthright citizenship?
One of the economics writers I follow, Mike Sherlock, has a very good short piece that actually copies and pastes – and highlights – relevant parts of the Congressional debates from the Congressional Globe (the forerunner to the Congressional Record). Almost the exact same issues were debated then as have been raised by the T—-p cult now, and they were explicitly rebuffed. The opponents explicitly mentioned how allowing lots of strange cultures in and granting their children citizenship would lead to horrors. The proponents firmly rejected it.
It’ll only take a few minutes to read. Here’s the link:
https://mishtalk.com/economics/what-were-the-us-senators-thinking-when-they-ratified-the-14th-amendment/
Sherlock is a bog standard libertarian for whom economic laissez-faire always wins, but he is very good on civil liberties.
Note there is one little bit of wiggle room in the debate, since the proponents agreed that “foreigners, aliens” did not have birthright citizenship, but it’s pretty clear from the context that he was referring to visitors who had no intention of remaining in the US permanently vs. actual immigrants. If i recall correctly, the US deals with that issue statutorily now, requiring children of visiting foreigners born here to opt for US vs. foreign citizenship in a short window after they turn 18.
Also, if SCOTUS applied its new 2nd Amendment type analysis here, the arguments of the Trumpies are particularly laughable, since there was no such thing as “illegal immigration” in the 1860s (the Chinese Exclusion Act came later). Thus there were no restrictions on any immigrants’ children being US citizens.
New Deal democrat
Comment #2: In case you didn’t already know, someone at the CDC went ahead and posted an update on COVID wastewater levels yesterday (they’re declining sharply). This led to some celebration online.
But the weekly update on deaths was never posted – and I doubt we will ever see it again.
That does not mean that those of us who still want to know what is happening are out of luck, because there is a pretty obvious work-around, which is to tabulate the data from the States that are continuing to report, and correlate it with the national data based on their previous relationships. For example, if 10 large reporting States typically have accounted for about 1/3rd of all cases nationwide in the past, there is every reason to expect that to continue going forward. So, take their total now, and multiply by 3, and you’ve got a decent estimate of what the CDC report would say.
It would take a long time to try to find this on my own for each State. So here is what I am asking other commenters: if you know that your State is still reporting, would you please respond to this comment and provide a link to the webpage where your State’s data can be found.
If I get a decent response, I’ll begin to post the “Interstate COVID report” next Wednesday.

Comment #3: On the lighter side, I’m going to be in southern Arizona for a couple of weeks in February. I have a favor to ask.
I already have a bunch of things to see lined up, but I always like to try out the best local and regional food. Which means I am looking for recommendations of what to try, and where I might best find it. Also if people know of a good watering hole or two (both “Cheers” and dive-type atmospheres are fine!), I’d be glad to get your recommendations.

I’m not really understanding the strategy that we’re implying these votes frustrate. A kind of posturing thing?
There’s a reality that Trump is going to form a government, and isn’t going to put forward acceptable nominees. And until he does we’re going to have this “stop order” stuff on the entire bureaucracy. Noem is no worse and probably slightly better than your average Trumplacement, despite the moralized sensationalist stuff anbout dog-killing annd whatnot. Advance and then vote no actually seems like the most sensible move to me. But I’d like to hear what people see as the alternative.

I don’t care that much if they oppose the nominees, but I hope like hell they have some strategy to oppose GOP legislation because I confess I’m baffled – I have no earthly idea what the plan is there.
All of the reporting has them wandering around rudderless. That may well be media bias but I’ll need to see some indication that someone is leading congressional Dems before I completely dismiss that reporting.
Give me a sign, any sign at all. If it isn’t going to be unified opposition to the nominees show me SOMETHING other than mumbled, canned statements at microphones that no one is listening to.

I’d say our chances of getting four GOP Senators to vote against Vought are zero, but I agree that this is one the Dems need to be united in vehement opposition to anyway, and they need to be loud about it.

@Kay: Pay more attention to the House which is going to be the real pain point for Republicans.

I would say early signs are promising.

No, it won’t, not where we are now. It won’t. Not in our lifetimes.

@Matt McIrvin: Matt, I’m “officially” replying to you, but I want to thank everyone on this thread who has replied with links to their various States’ dashboards.
I imagine this “Interstate COVID report” will start out somewhat bare bones, and get better as time goes on, assuming the States continue to report.
Of all the vile things T—-p has already done this week, I think completely shutting down the US’s public health sector is the worst. Because it literally (not figuratively literally, but indeed literally literally demonstrates that he does not care if people die – including loyal Trumpies who have health problems.
And the irony with COVID is, there is a very good chance that by the end of March, there will have been less than 40,000 deaths total in the previous 12 months from COVID. He could call a press conference and toot his own horn about how He has Conquered COVID. But if he does that after shutting down the reporting, only MAGAT’s will believe him.
Thanks again to all.

I think they’ll come up with an opposition without leadership from the party. They have every other time we’ve gotten shellacked and leadership ran away. But then we’re not going to be able to control them or tell them who and what to support. Loyalty is reciprocal.

My observation on Noem is the Dems that voted for her mostly are in states with strong R power and in order to appease those voters they’re going to be ok with the least offensive and dangerous nominees, especially nominally qualified ones. And that it also confuses Trumpworld, by the way, is a good thing–they lose some of their non-stop power of blaming and lying about Demcrats having “Trump Derangement Syndrome” on these.
As noxious as she is, we have bigger fish to fry, throwing them a few bones is not an irrational decision. We have our bridge burners who are gonna play a big role in thwarting Fat Bastard but we’ll also need some of these types too, when we have to choose our battles and keep our powder dry for the long haul.
We held tight on the Hegseth debacle, as an example. I’m more enraged Tillis–who clearly knows what a danger he is to our national defense– caved after hours of begging and coersion, I’d love to see us dump money into his 2026 opponent and stomp his fricking sell out balls into the ground.

Asking them to meet a standard they themselves set in order to stand up to Trump is just too much to ask, I see.
Chris Johnson
I’m honestly kinda surprised about Hegseth. Republicans stand to lose so much if a Putin pawn goes and wrecks or disbands the military.
Very interested in whether Gabbard gets in, and who’s running the FBI: that business about unmasking the secret FBI files is clearly to smear them in some way with the base to soften them up for execution. Oh, right, the extra loony: Kash Patel, who’d clearly like to have ‘his’ branch of government all shot.
It’ll be very significant whether these ones sail through, or whether this is the plan: hang on to the FBI for long enough for the FBI to screw Hegseth to the wall for some kind of treasonous activity, at which point Trump is a doubly lame duck, can’t install Russian plants anymore, and has to obey the Republicans for a change (no visible change to the base though).
If Patel and Gabbard get in, we’re really through the looking glass: especially if they fire but do not execute a bunch of spooks who know full well what is happening. ‘cos the spooks will know what’s happening, it’s just that the Republicans used it to get elected, so interfering with the Russian plants has been off limits up to now. The Republicans will not care THAT much if their whole base is killed, but they will care mightily if they are financially ruined, and that’s what’s in store for them if they play along.
