A race for a Las Vegas district was still too early to call on Tuesday, but its outcome can't tip the balance of power to Republicans. Former White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney said President-elect Trump's transition into the White House "is not going to look anything like it did in 2017."

An attorney helping President-elect Donald Trump assemble his new administration warned career employees at the U.S. Justice Department on Monday that they could be fired if they tried to resist the Republican's agenda. His post on X came in response to a Politico which reported that many Justice Department career attorneys - civil servants who typically remain in their posts from administration to administration regardless of which party holds the White House - are alarmed by what a second Trump presidency will mean. Trump won a second term in last Tuesday's presidential election. Elon Musk may be the richest person in the world, CEO of the most overvalued car company in the world and was rumored to functionally be Trump's co-President. Yet, despite all of his financial success, he's never been able to escape one simple truth: He is a deeply unlikable person. He can blame it on his reportedly self-diagnosed autism, but no one wants to be his friend including the Trump team, apparently, with some members telling the Daily Beast he's the "guest who wouldn't leave." Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) said Monday that the U.S. military could not defeat any country in battle right now and called the armed services a "disaster."

How embarrassing! That question will first lead the Democrats to finger-pointing. But ultimately they must look in the mirror, because Trump didn't win: The Democrats lost—and they will keep losing if they don't learn the lessons. Democratic Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman said he would vote to confirm his colleague Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) as secretary of State if selected by President-elect Trump. "Unsurprisingly, the other team's pick will have political differences than my own. That being said, my colleague is a strong choice and I look forward to voting for... Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) has taken to Instagram to listen to split-ticket voters from last week's election, posting a question box asking "People who supported [President-elect] Trump & me OR voted Trump/Dem, tell us why" on her story. She received a variety of responses from her 8.1 million followers and beyond, citing reasons ranging... Donald Trump has vowed to bring peace to Ukraine.

Ana Navarro left President Biden a message on Monday's edition of ABC's "The View," recommending the sitting president pardon his son Hunter Biden. "And this is what I'm going to tell Joe — Joe, since they're talking smack about you anyways, you know what? Maybe pardon Hunter," she said. "Pardon Hunter because we, basically... Donald Trump's firebrand lawyer, Alina Habba, has emerged as a frontrunner to be his White House press secretary, it was reported Tuesday—the latest proof his second administration will be stuffed with MAGA loyalists.
