This is a scam of the highest order that helps explain how we keep getting screwed by the big pharma companies. Please give this a watch.

And honestly, some people don’t really care until it starts happening to people who look like them. But whatever it takes.

I’ll take “Things that motivate me to vote” for $1,000.

MAGA “no more foreign wars” voters: You were played.

25 days.

Putting them on notice.

Federal law enforcement is violating its own policy around shooting at a moving vehicle trying to get away from agents.

This is a pattern, not an anomaly.

Voters, we know what we have to do.

Vance champions a fascist dystopia.

It’s a cover up. Congress must hold Bondi in contempt and judges must order full production of the Epstein files.

My heart is still heavy from the news out of Minneapolis. And this was a tough piece to write today. But I’m more determined than ever to get the masked goons off the streets of our cities and kick the fascists out of power. I hope you are too. My write-up in the replies.

It’s murder. Not self defense. Shut ICE down.

Voters, we know what we have to do now.

What did the attack accomplish at all?

😳

This is the way.

Lindsey Graham, my heavens. Settle down and take a breath, you’re about to float away from giddiness.

He lost a lot of the far right over this. Keep demanding the release of the Epstein Files. Only 1 percent released so far…

Delusional Don strikes again.

This is an important response.

This you?

Shame on them all.

So look. It’s only been one week, and already the 2026 headlines are mind-spinning. We want to look away, but it’s better to tackle them straight. When we do, we notice something very telling about what’s going on. My write-up in the replies.

This is how Trump “runs” Venezuela.

Stephen Miller is an active threat to world peace and stability.

Those who have tied themselves to Trump will be doomed to sink to the depths along with him. Sadly, all of us are going to be pulled into these waters, too—and told to swim hard.

Take note of how they are weaponizing anti-immigrant propaganda in MN and turning it into government policy. Fascism 101.

Still top trending yesterday, even in the middle of everything.

We’ve gone straight to imperialism as policy. Backed by the most craven and feckless politicians on the right.

They are test running this play in MN. Watch for rollouts elsewhere. Glad Gov. Walz is speaking out forcefully.

This is nuts. Grand Rapids police, please explain your actions.

Any comment today, Tulsi?

I cannot begin to express how reckless and dangerous this warpath is.

It’s Schrödinger’s attack. Bigger than anything since WWII but also just a law enforcement operation.

Sen. Mark Kelly responds to move by Pete Hegseth to take administrative action against him and reduce his retirement pay.

A message from Sen. Bernie Sanders.

Watch these House districts. There are many pissed off voters.

I have this same feeling daily when reporting on this White House.

If they try this and China moves on Taiwan, we shouldn’t be surprised at all.

Yes. Let Jack Smith testify publicly.

The regime’s foreign policy “profit priority” is now crystal clear to anyone paying attention. The first question with any plan or action by the WH must now always be, “How do they plan to grift off of it?”

This was never about drugs. It was never even about democracy. It was about installing a puppet—Maduro’s own VP—to serve U.S. oil interests. How on brand for Trump to ignore the election results and the will of the people of the country.

So it’s going well.

The America First crowd, like Marjorie Three Names here, is quite unhappy with the White House over Venezuela. They are splintering further.

In all the craziness since the attack on Venezuela, it’s easy to lose sight of some basic international laws and principles (not to mention our Constitution and the War Powers Act) that Trump has now trashed. I lay them out to build a common foundation to argue from, in today’s piece.

This week’s Just for Skeets and Giggles is (finally) out! Have a great weekend. open.substack.com/pub/statusku...

They’re up to some familiar tricks again, using a right-wing influencer to do their dirty work. I take a closer look at the propagandist behind the disinformation campaign in MN and discuss how his “reporting” is part of the fascist playbook. open.substack.com/pub/statusku...

My 2025 wrap-up is out! I provide ten reasons for hope that MAGA Trumpism is failing. Don’t miss it! statuskuo.substack.com/p/maga-trump...

Another reminder that the ghosts of politics past still haunt and torment us today.
