In Thuringia, "The local (AfD) politician is alleged to have been guilty of supporting the right-wing terrorist group “United Patriots.”

France! La honte.

Here’s a story for every national news outlet: In N.C., churchgoers are literally running into the woods as federal agents descend on the property. “Inside the church, women and children sobbed as they wondered whether their loved ones had been taken.” www.charlotteobserver.com/news/politic...

Just. Gross.

The Founders were so concerned about bribery that the Constitution forbids it three separate times. Two emoluments clauses ban officials—unambiguously including the president—from accepting things of value, plus bribery is the only named impeachable offense besides treason. Unprecedentedly corrupt.

Son mari avait été la première victime de l’explosion du réacteur numéro 4 de Tchernobyl en 1986. Veuve depuis près de 40 ans, Natalia Khodemtchouk a été tuée par une attaque de drones sur Kyiv hier. Une vie passée à subir la politique de Moscou.

Two years ago, Viktor Orbán’s foreign minister Péter Szijjártó visited Nicolás Maduro, backed Venezuela’s pro-Kremlin regime, opposed US sanctions and interference, and even signed gas and oil agreements. I'm curious how fast they try to scrub those photos now as Trump prepares to strike Venezuela.

A foreign country bribed the president with a bar of gold. Where are my Originalists at?

The Trump family is chasing another real estate deal in Saudi Arabia. And the Saudis want a mutual defense agreement and access to U.S. nuclear technology. Looks like Trump and the royal family will both win, with our national security for sale. The only losers? The American people.

See that Rolex clock and gold bar? It looks like those Swiss gifts paid off. Trump cut tariffs on Swiss goods — like luxury watches — from 39% to 15%. While Trump’s tariffs increase prices for Americans, billionaire CEOs and foreign companies sucking up to Trump get relief.

Sounds like the top DOJ officials who have seen the Epstein files are personally trying to prevent those files from getting out. What are they hiding?

I’ve reported on so many regular people being threatened and villified by conspiracy theories and hatred for people, many times spread by MTG. It’s awful when anyone has to deal with harassment and threats and I wonder if the congresswoman can look inward, too

To negotiate a trade deal with the President of the United States, the Swiss government arrived with a "special Rolex desktop clock" and "a 1-kilogram personalized gold bar" www.axios.com/2025/11/14/t...

New: A site licensing Trump's name is selling merch with the presidential seal — including a $20 beer-pong set with “Presidential themed balls.” Federal law says you can’t manufacture or sell likenesses of the seal without authorization. me, for @forbes.com 1/

Straight up corruption. Imagine this happening in ANY other country...

“Weaponizing the DOJ” takes on a whole new level when you order investigations in order to reopen it so it’s no longer closed and you can claim you can’t release information because it’s an “ongoing investigation”

The New York Times won’t use the word but we should because it’s obvious: right wing political influencers aren’t just ‘close to’ the administration — they are its propagandists in the most literal sense of that word. They financially benefit from access & loyalty. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/14/b...

Mafia governance in action "the only offer on the table was that I needed to resign by 5pm that day or the DOJ would basically rain hell on UVA... If I did not resign that day, I was told that the DOJ would extract/block hundreds of millions of dollars from UVA before they would even negotiate."

And it works because there is no pushback from Maria. Zero.

Old enough to remember when raping children was a dealbreaker in politics.

New from me: “working the refs” has come for Wikipedia. The same type of attacks alleging anti-conservative bias that right wing politicians have make about social media are coming for the encyclopedia — because of its critical role in shaping AI answer engines. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

I lost brain cells listening to this

Drip, drip, drip. It’s past time for the Speaker of the House and Republicans in Congress to do the right thing and release the Epstein files to the American people. Anything less than full disclosure is just part of the coverup.

Todd Blanche would have had these emails before interviewing Maxwell. Why didn’t he question her directly about her exchanges? Why did he not follow up when she said things that were onviously a lie?? This shows that was a performance intended to dupe the public and benefit her (and Trump)

Pleased to be quoted here alongside @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social and my friend @oonahathaway.bsky.social.

This seems like the most straightforward and also basically accurate message.

Some clarification, don’t call there is no one manning the phones on a Sunday. Use social media. They are meeting right now. The vote won’t be for at least an hour. This is solely in the Senate. The house is not a part of this. 1/2

@captmarkkelly.bsky.social as your constituent I am thanking you for your service and asking you not to cave for a promise.

Clips like this are political gold

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Two panels commemorating the contribution of Black American soldiers towards the liberation of the Netherlands in World War Two have been quietly removed from a cemetery in Limburg. It follows a complaint by right-wing think tank The Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission.

Never forget that the Trump regime waged a desperate legal battle with the goal of starving Americans.

Elon Musk’s new pay package would feed all forty million Americans on SNAP for the next ten years. He wouldn’t notice the difference but the country would.

HE'S APPEALING TO THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES THAT HE BE ALLOWED TO STARVE AMERICANS

I understand why we shut down American airspace for a few days after 9-11 to avoid a repeat attack but imagine shutting down American airspace to avoid releasing the Epstein files.

The world’s first trillionaire initiated a move that has left more than half a million people dead, most of whom are children.

Hundreds of thousands of people, dead because of a decision made by the world's richest man

Tell me this is AI, please. It's gotta be—right?

incredible photo that's definitely worth at least 1,000 words from Andrew Harnik of Getty

“They came into the building understanding it was a daycare. They did not have a warrant. It is a violation of our rights. It is a violation of these children’s rights. They are terrorizing our community.” Trump’s ICE goons raided a damn daycare.
