Recent rifts in MAGA-world have taken place both online and in the House Chamber. On X, Elon Musk is sparring with far-right activist Laura Loomer over HB-1 visas, dividing Musk fans. During the government funding battle last week, President-elect Trump criticized Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas), a vocal opponent of the Trump-backed spending bill. Rep. Roy explains his and the other 37 GOP votes against the bill, underscoring his commitment to smaller government and responsible spending. Next, Russia rejected a call for an immediate ceasefire with Ukraine but said it’s ready to hold negotiations. Richard Haass, Council on Foreign Relations president emeritus, breaks down the implications. Plus, Netflix set a streaming record with its Christmas NFL games and Richard Parsons, former Time Warner CEO, has died at age 76.
