Le Monde: Michigan's Donald Trump voters: A tale of collective amnesia
In Michigan, a notable shift has occurred as blue-collar workers, Latinos, Muslims, and African-Americans increasingly supported Donald Trump in the recent elections, seemingly overlooking his past disparaging remarks towards them. This trend reflects a broader acceptance of Trump's persona as a symbol of success in America.
The article highlights the contrast between the memories of older voters, like a 94-year-old woman recalling the disdain of industrialist Henry Ford, and the current electorate's willingness to embrace Trump despite his controversial history. This phenomenon raises questions about collective memory and political allegiance in the Midwest.
Forbes: Congress Will Likely Avert Shutdown This Year—But Give GOP And Trump Control Over 2025 Spending, Johnson Says
House Speaker Mike Johnson anticipates Congress will extend the current budget into early next year to prevent a shutdown in December. This strategy would allow Republicans to control budget negotiations when the new GOP Congress and President-elect Trump take office.
Johnson expressed hope for a new budget agreement before the current one expires on December 20, but if not, a temporary measure will be implemented. The shift to a Republican-controlled Senate and White House would enable the GOP to prioritize their fiscal agenda without needing Democratic input.
Fox News: Historic Catholic vote ‘delivered election to President Trump’, says CatholicVote president
CatholicVote.org President Brian Burch attributes President-elect Donald Trump's victory to a significant shift in Catholic voter support, with 58% backing Trump compared to 40% for Vice President Kamala Harris. This marks a notable swing from Biden's narrow win among Catholics in 2020.
Burch highlights that Trump's appeal to working-class issues and "anti-woke" policies resonated with Catholic voters, who felt Harris's stance on abortion and perceived hostility towards their beliefs alienated them. This demographic shift, particularly in key states, signals a need for political leaders to address the concerns of Catholic voters.
Fox News: Speaker Johnson opposes releasing Matt Gaetz's House Ethics report: 'Open a Pandora's box'

Johnson emphasized that the Ethics Committee's jurisdiction is limited to current members and releasing reports on former members could lead to complications. Gaetz has denied the allegations, which were part of a lengthy investigation by the DOJ that did not result in charges.
