Good Morning..hope you all had a great holiday weekend
Because..
Gov't funding runs out on Friday
New Gov't spending CR must be passed by midnight 12/3 (no one expects a shutdown, but..)
And...
Debt limit deadline 12/15
NDAA
BBB
Brace yourselves:
December will be insane
2/Re NDAA:
Schumer expects to push it thru the Senate without too much trouble
The issue will be GOP amendments
Before Thanksgiving he tried to get a bipartisan agmnt to limit them and at the last minute it fell thru
3/Re Debt ceiling:
Per Yellen gov't will default by 12/15 if this is not resolved
Tho McConnell still doesn't want Dems to use a reconciliation fix he & Schumer appear to be slightly more agreeable about getting it done
Some House chatter @ getting rid of it altogether
We'll see
4/Re BBB:
Schumer, Manchin & Sinema have yet to work out a final deal
Word is Sinema is more amenable to actually making a deal
And even if this is done, GOP can still drag it out with a massive vote-a-thon
Could be early January
Not Christmas as Schumer has demanded
We'll see..

ICYMI:
Yesterday DC Court of Appeals asked lawyers for Trump, J6 & NARA to prep to argue whether the courts even have the jurisdiction to hear this case
Hearing is Monday
NOT looking good for Trump
Here:

2/"[Appeals court] raised the question on its own, meaning it was not suggested by the lawyers in the case.
3/"It asked: "Does the provision in the Presidential Records Act providing that the Archivist’s 'determination whether access to a Presidential record ... shall be restricted ... shall not be subject to judicial review, except as provided in subsection (e) of this section'

Big deal?
The Manhattan DA's office has convened a new grand jury
Tish James is considering a new law suit against Trump
Cy Vance is retiring next month
Is *this* how newly elected Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg will finally be able to criminally indict Trump?
washingtonpost.com/politics/trump…
2/"'This is way, way beyond anything that’s believable,' said Norm Miller, a professor of real estate finance at the University of San Diego who has appraised properties for 50 years. “I’ve never seen anything with a gap that extreme.”
3/"But extreme is not the same as illegal. Legal experts said that if prosecutors wish to prove a crime, they will need to do more than simply prove Trump’s valuations were wrong.

Remember when Pelosi was on the phone during the Congressional baseball game?
She was talking to Manchin
Good news: she's still working on this
Still helping get BBB thru the Senate
And she is REALLY good:
nytimes.com/2021/11/20/us/…
2/"[Pelosi] is still not done, with the Senate now getting a chance to reshape the measure in the hope of eventually sending it back for final House approval and Mr. Biden’s signature.
3/"Mr. Manchin is still demanding major changes, such as the jettisoning of a new four-week paid family and medical leave program that Ms. Pelosi has made a top priority.

Per @jonkarl "Betrayal":
We have kewpie doll Trump lawyer Jenna Ellis writing yet *another* memo directing Pence
Meadows sent it to Pence's aide:
It gave states til 7pm 1/15/20 to send back new votes & if they missed that deadline their votes wouldn't be counted
Read. This.
⤵️
2/"Ellis, in the memo, outlined a multi-step strategy: On Jan. 6, the day Congress was to certify the 2020 election results, Pence was to send back the electoral votes from six battleground states that Trump falsely claimed he had won.
3/"The memo said that Pence would give the states a deadline of "7pm eastern standard time on January 15th" to send back a new set of votes, according to Karl.

Chris Christie has written a book
Maggie Haberman got a copy
She reports he writes that when he had Covid he was given last rights at the hospital
He then got a call from a hospitalized Trump, who asked:
“Are you gonna say you got it from me?”
nytimes.com/2021/11/13/us/…
This book is Christie doing the traditional 'write a book before you run for the Oval' dance
It's a *lot* of too little, too late
And I will work hard to prevent him winning the presidency
But it's got *some* interesting info in it
Per NYT:
Thread⤵️
2/"the Youngkin victory knocks down “this idea that if you don’t agree with Donald Trump on everything, and pledge unfettered fealty to him, then you can’t win because his voters quote unquote won’t come out to vote,” Mr. Christie said. “No candidate owns voters. They don’t.”
