“These Matters That With Myself I Too Much Discuss/Too Much Explain”

Really? Sure seems like you want to change the outcome. This also sounds like extortion. Now, Congress can do that, as they did when they withheld highway funds from any state that didn’t lower the highway speed to 55.  But the Administration doesn’t get to decide to do that. 

Pretty sure the courts have said that over and over since DOGE left town.

And while we’re talking about the Oklahoma plumber:
What’s the over/under on how long before they throw this guy to the wolves and disavow any knowledge of his existence? ETTD. Even airports. Let’s talk some more about Platner. Fox heard me. Who knew?
James Carville criticizes CNN for not airing President Trump’s speech last night:

Blitzer: How would you advise the Democratic Party to handle President Trump's speech last night?

Carville: I would advise them to attack CNN, ABC, NBC, because they didn't air the speech. And I think the president acting loonier than a tune is newsworthy. I don't think we should have hidden that from the American people. I think it should have been blanket coverage of it. He's literally off his rocker.
Let’s have this argument again. 🙄 (I don’t think Carville is wrong (YMMV), but I think the sound of TeeVees changing channels/switching to Netflix, would have been audible from space. If you don’t know Trump is looney by now…. Besides, the news is not exactly portraying him as a genius, today. But attacking the networks? Why does everyone want to act like Trump? Maybe old guys really do need to get out of the way.) 🤦‍♂️ Stupidity really is contagious. Please identify the crime. By citation to the applicable statute. Yes, they can get away with “running out the clock.” Besides, KY law says Bashear can’t appoint a replacement, and Bashear says the KY constitution says he can. The courts have to resolve that one. And unless McConnell’s dead, he’s still a U.S. Senator.

Still don’t see how anyone has a dog in this fight. This is, at worst (if McConnell’s dead), a misrepresentation. It’s not fraud. And who has relied on it to their detriment? The people of KY, who are down a Senator? Yeah, it doesn’t work that way. And I’m just talking about civil torts. Criminal fraud is even harder to establish.

Just let it go. The Senate only has about 30 days left in the year anyway.
