Tuesday, November 4, 2025
Good morning, and welcome to RedState’s “Morning Minute” — a temporary glimpse at which tales are trending at the second and a look forward at what the day could deliver. Consider this your one-stop store for news to kickstart your day.
TOP O’ THE MORNIN’
Red-Hot at RedState
As one of the concurrently most dishonest and sanctimonious figures in The Swamp, James “86 47” Comey is finally going through the music – and he’s not liking it one bit. These emails would definitely seem to he dangerous to his case, to say the least.
Newsom’s Wife Goes After Trump, Runs Smack Dab Into Her and Gavin’s Past
Newsom’s spouse continued, labeling President Trump names like “con-artist” and “malignant narcissist” without a trace of realization of the hypocrisy she was spewing with her husband, who is all this and more, standing proper behind her.
I truthfully cannot wrap my thoughts around such viciousness. I deplore most Democrats and the extremism that they spout, but I’d never in a million years want the sort of issues this psychopath wishes for her ideological foes.
Trending Across Townhall Media
Denver Incidents Show Gun Control in Colorado is Working Out Just Great
The reality is that anti-Second Amendment sorts will never be taught. They will not be taught because they refuse to see information through any lens but their own distorted lenses.
There Are Liars, and Then There Are Designated Liars
The designated liars blaze the path for other Democrats, who wait to see whether or not people like Schiff or Swalwell can get away with their most outrageous lies. Conversely, you’ll discover that the designated liars are among the most sought-after speaking heads for the media, which supplies other Democrats the braveness to come out and repeat the lies.
The Duchess Demands a Standing Ovation
So, there you have got it. Meghan pretends to be a lot of issues — Dodgers fan, humanitarian, a sufferer, the reincarnation of Princess Diana — but in actuality, the only factor we all know she is for sure is inauthentic.
No, a GWN Host Did Not Just Say That About MAGA Supporters?
Again, these people have discovered nothing since 2016. You don’t get Trump supporters, and you probably never will. It’s superb. Frankly, I’d reasonably have the Left never perceive us since that offers us a leg up in elections.
Leftists and Humorless Scolds FREAK OUT At Greg Abbott’s Obvious Joke About the NYC Election
Governor Abbott will not have the option to impose a tariff on them, but perhaps he can administer an IQ check. If the refugees rating in the triple digits, that means they in all probability did not vote for Mamdani and must be welcomed.
WHAT’S ON TAP?
Today on Capitol Hill…
The Senate, on Monday, voted to invoke cloture on the nomination of Eric Chunyee Tung to the ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, transferring him one step nearer to affirmation. Late Tuesday morning, they will vote — again — on the clean persevering with decision (CR) (H.R.5371), and then, in the afternoon, on the affirmation of Joshua D. Dunlap for the first Circuit Court of Appeals.
There are two conferences/hearings set for Tuesday, as effectively:
- Senate Armed Services — Hearings to study the nominations of Austin Dahmer, of Arizona, and Robert Kadlec, of New York, both to be an Assistant Secretary, and Michael Borders, of Florida, to be an Assistant Secretary of the Air Force, all of the Department of Defense
- Senate Intelligence (Select) — Closed business assembly to think about pending calendar business
As famous above, the Senate will vote again today on the clean CR, but there’s no indication that the end result shall be any different — maybe later in the week. In the meantime, Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson (LA-4) continues to drive the message home: This is on the Democrats.
White House What’s Up
President Donald Trump has no public occasions scheduled today. There shall be a press briefing with White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt at 1:00 PM Eastern.
Also, we must acknowledge this morning’s news of the passing of former Vice President Dick Cheney.

Keeping Up With the Cabinet
Sec. Homeland Security – Kristi Noem — Noem not too long ago sang the praises of DHS law enforcement following the arrest of two people accused of smuggling firearms through the Laredo Port of Entry.
I need the American people to know this about DHS law enforcement: these courageous males and girls are thwarting the legal plans of evildoers EVERY DAY.

COMING ATTRACTIONS
Today, of course, is Election Day in a number of jurisdictions, and we’ll be watching the outcomes intently — significantly in California (Prop. 50), New Jersey, New York City, and Virginia — and reporting on them right here later this night.
MORNING MUSING
As famous above, it is Election Day. These are off-year elections, and not every state or municipality is holding them today. (Here in the St. Louis space, there are only elections in choose municipalities — not mine — largely for some type of tax increase. One would hope those do not go, but their being held when such low turnout is anticipated would not weigh in favor of that.)
But for all the time many of us spend online discussing political ramifications — and offline chewing on them — the key to just about all of it’s really exercising our vital (and sacred) proper of suffrage. I do know most of our readers aren’t in California, New Jersey, New York, or Virginia, but many are — and your vote counts, even if you are not overly optimistic of your candidate or place rising victorious.
Think of it this manner: In 2020, Joe Biden (allegedly) obtained 81 million votes to Donald Trump’s 74 million, so Biden bought the “win.” But setting apart the mountain of questions and doubts surrounding that election, one factor no one may deny was that 74 million Americans (at least) most popular the other man and held a different imaginative and prescient. Your vote — even when it would not back the profitable candidate or place — wants to be registered.
Frequently, I see or hear people expressing doubt, characterizing a explicit vote/election as a misplaced trigger. I perceive the frustration. It might be straightforward to grow to be discouraged — but do not. If there’s an election in your space today, go vote (if you have not already). Do it.
