President Trump's daughter, Ivanka, finds herself caught in her own email scandal involving the blending of official government correspondence with her private email.
As I have often said, "e" serves as proof. So do not be surprised if the Democrats open an investigation once they are back in the House, just to make sure no state secrets have been compromised.
To get all the evidence on any inappropriate communications, Democrats will, of course, have to look at all emails from different Ivanka accounts.
Maybe even ask to see some matches.
The president's daughter may have just given the new majority a whole new line of inquiry into the Trump family's business relationship.
Hillary Clinton contributed to her own defeat by proceeding with the private reworking of e-mails. Trump and his Republican agents had a day on the ground, asking whether Clinton had compromised national security, nodding approvingly as his supporters chanted, "Lock it up!"
The president said that his daughter's email business was totally different from what Clinton had done using a private server and removing some of the correspondence.
We will see.
Double: I stand by my prediction that Representative Nancy Pelosi will be elected Speaker of the House.
Twenty Democrats who have questioned his leadership are the subject of a major press, but every day a new member of the House of Representatives or a new organization announces his support for Pelosi. The opposition movement collapses even before the Democratic caucus selects a candidate for president on Wednesday.
Let's just hope that Oakland's representative, Barbara Lee, wins her caucus chairmanship, number four in the party hierarchy. She would be the first black woman to hold a leadership position.
Must read: Kevin Fagan, one of The Chronicle's best writers, produced a Pulitzer Prize story about Jim Jones and the Jonestown Massacre. He has interviewed me extensively and has done a remarkable job in bringing this 40-year-old tragedy to the forefront of modern readers' concerns.
The first person from Fagan's colleague, Marshall Kilduff, recounting his difficulties in obtaining the publication of his work exhibiting Jones and Jonestown, is also a must read.
Kilduff explains how politicians and the media chose not to look at what was happening in the People's Temple because of the politics of the time or for egocentric reasons.
Good writing, good guy, good story and thank you.
Real help: I reported last week that the camp's fire victims seemed to be alone. Since then, the world has finally caught up, including visits from President Trump, Governor-elect Gavin Newsom and Senator Kamala Harris. Governor Jerry Brown made his second visit, accompanying Trump.
And with the visits came a ton of assistance. The Federal Emergency Management Agency has automated its financial assistance so that it has a quick qualification process, which makes it possible to pay money to victims' bank accounts almost instantly. Quarterback Green Bay Packers and Aaron Rodgers, a native of Chico, led the way for other celebrities by donating $ 1 million to help the victims.
Now, if the federal government really wants to help the people of Paradise, why not lead the 5,600 troops Trump sent to the Mexican border – and have already begun to withdraw – in Butte County?
The launch by the army of the reconstruction would really help to make America even better.
Street signs: Dear San Francisco Street Managers, Steuart between Mission and Howard should be a two-way street, not one-way, just as Steuart between Market and Mission is two-way.
And Steuart is only a street two streets away!
Maxing out: My 9-year-old grandson, Max, Eleanor Johns' longtime chief of staff, donated a homemade birthday card to his father.
It read: "Old age implies responsibilities. Pills and medications, remembering which to take, remembering in general, wearing reading glasses, and especially remembering the university and funding for the same thing! Happy Birthday! With love, Max.
And his father is only 50 years old.
The time of the film: "Bohemian Rhapsody." The story of the Queen musical group and its singer with high and flamboyant lines, Freddie Mercury. If you want to see what life is like in the world of rock'n'roll, here is your movie. And the music is instantly recognizable. It's worth the detour.
"Front Runner." Hugh Jackman does an outstanding job as Gary Hart, the former senator who burned the torch of the 1988 Democratic presidential race. Taking out this film, at that time, in this environment, is almost laughable – because that's the story of how an extramarital affair can kill a political career.
If only.
Glouglou: I hope you all spend a wonderful holiday weekend. And, by the way, they forgave the wrong turkey at the White House.
