Alas, there's not that much time left until January 20, but the old thread was simply too large to keep going.

A major spat has broken out in the GOP between those who dislike H1B visas, which Donald Trump previously called "very bad" and "unfair", and those like Elon Musk who support them. Maga figures have been throwing rocks at Musk, and Musk told them to go "fuck themselves in the face", an unlikely insult for a man whose obsessed with epic level procreation (which is a fascination of certain elements of the far right).
Yesterday Trump came down in favor of H1B visas, claiming he's always liked visas in general, which isn't true, but then Trump doesn't particularly worry about truthfulness.
Bannon also said this past week that Mike Johnson has "got to go". One of Trump's sons claimed that the "vast majority" of Republicans were enemies, along with the Democrats.
Mike Johnson appears to have very little chance of retaining his position as Speaker of the House. Guess leopards ate his face.

Donald Trump:
The extension of the Debt Ceiling by a previous Speaker of the House, a good man and a friend of mine, from this past September of the Biden Administration, to June of the Trump Administration, will go down as one of the dumbest political decisions made in years. There was no reason to do it - NOTHING WAS GAINED, and we got nothing for it - A major reason why that Speakership was lost. It was Biden’s problem, not ours. Now it becomes ours. I call it “1929” because the Democrats don’t care what our Country may be forced into. In fact, they would prefer “Depression” as long as it hurt the Republican Party. The Democrats must be forced to take a vote on this treacherous issue NOW, during the Biden Administration, and not in June. They should be blamed for this potential disaster, not the Republicans!
Donald Trump, head of the GOP, the party of fiscal responsibility.

Harriet Hageman was named incoming chair of the Anti-Woke Caucus.
I didn't know that there was one, but apparently it exists and is dedicate to fighting "woke" ideologies in government, business and society.

My message to incoming President Trump is that first and foremost Canada will never be the 51st state of the U.S.
