The US House of Representatives has still not been called, but
Republicans are leading, there are 18 house races still
outstanding, the Republicans are 5 seats from the 218 needed to
form a majority, and Democrats are 14 seats away.
The only path to a Democractic majority in the house is if they
win nearly all of the 18 house races, well 14 of the 18 which
might be tough.
The worst possible outcome from this election is Trump and
Republicans controlling every level of government which is
looking more like they will, there will be no checks in place to
keep Trump and his allies in check since the Supreme Court is
stacked by Trump appointees.

Rep. Matt Gaetz, the right-wing provocateur who is being
investigated by the House Ethics Committee for allegations of
sexual misconduct is Trumps pick for Attorney General.
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, a former
Democratic congresswoman turned Republican who has expressed
sympathy for Russia.

And covid vaccine denier/skeptic and brain worm victim RFK Jr
will become Secretary of Health. I can hardly wait to see where
the My Pillow guy will fit in.

His pick for defense secretary is questionable as well.

Kennedy is even worse than I thought, and if he keeps talking,
the press will be able to run the fact checker on him with
similar success to that they have with Trump. Every time a
politician tells a blatant lie, I have an urge to grab a little
piece of their skin with pliers and slice it off.
