Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

I didn’t vote for war against Venezuela. How about you? 😡

What do affordable healthcare and sarcasm have in common? Most Americans don't get it.

ICE garage blockaded in lower Manhattan with dozens of agents stuck inside as more and more New Yorkers gather. NYPD observed staging on Canal & Broadway, expected come over for crowd control.

Trump has lost credibility as a Russia-Ukraine negotiator. I doubt Ukraine and Europe will accept any unilateral decision he comes up with.

ICE still FROZEN at Centre St & Howard in lower Manhattan right now as calls continue circulating for people to join. NYPD arriving with barricades.

Trump will not turn away from Russia. If he turns on Putin, Putin will bury him in personal embarrasment. Trump doesnt care about anything criminal, he has always squirmed out of it. Personal, his image, that he cannot stand to have tarnished even though it is a completely false image to begin with.

Mike Johnson, whose claim to fame is a ridiculous selfie with Kid Rock, is furious that we’re pushing to force a vote on extending tax credits. You know what to do:

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

Lindsey Graham sponsored the Afghan Adjustment Act: “This is the right thing to do. The people who were there with us in the fight who are here in America need to stay. This will be their new home. We have a moral obligation to these people and they will make great citizens.”

They’re too busy having cocktail parties, spreading fun gossip and trying to sell their memoirs. I.e., they’re too busy getting rich.

Reminder that all the "pardons" granted to Jan6ers whose convictions were still pending were auto-pen pardons.

I like these suggestions from @michellegoldberg.bsky.social for Giving Tuesday - immigrants rights organizations - *Immigrant Defenders Law Center *National Day Laborer Organizing Network Out of gift articles for the month - if someone can post a gift link in replies, grateful 🙏

Just a parting thought before I go to bed. Any time ICE takes someone without a signed judicial warrant it is kidnapping. Period. An administrative warrant is BS. It is made up and gives them no authority. Only a signed judicial warrant makes it detained instead of kidnapped. Have a great night.

And it goes on. The man is completely unraveling. Bombing boats, threatening invasions “to stop drugs,” and now promising a full pardon to a president convicted of trafficking 400 tons of cocaine into the U.S. This isn’t law and order. It’s the most lawless presidency in American history.👇

4/ welcomed, where they dared let the kids out of the house. I met them at the airport. They call me Grandpa. First just the kids, but the parents too now. They came to thank me for all the help, for being a friend. When i think about the latest miller/trump garbage I want to scream. -finis

3/ friends came over to reenact the first Thanksgiving. They brought flowers, fruit, cookies, juice, trail mix cheese. They spent over 16 years in Malaysia after fleeing the coup in Burma when it was renamed Myanmar, waiting for UNHCR to place them somewhere they would be ⤵️

2/ Fallujah campaign. They got out on that last day, spent Spent 6 months in Kuwait being VETTED before being placed here. I met him a few weeks after arrival. Helped with lots of stuff. He would do anything i asked of him. Going to comm college for computer security degree. Today my Burmese ⤵️

🧵 / I cannot express my burning rage at the entire trump administration, now turned up from simmering to bonfire level with his latest crap on immigrants. A good friend with wife and 2 US born kids was a translator for troops in Afghanistan. He went on every mission in the brutal ⤵️

🚨Totally normal for the POTUS to pardon the president of another country for drug trafficking on the SAME day his SECDEF gives an order to “kill them all” in reference to a boat with people suspected of having drugs. 🆘 USA 1/2

if youre trans and youre struggling to justify why you as a person should be allowed to take up space in the universe just consider that by your sheer existence you make a lot of the worst people on earth mad enough that they will die early deaths from stress. so thats a p good reason

Thank you so much, once again dear friend. Trump's killing the economy with Tariffs!

Another really really questionable #trumppardon This dude stole millions from his employees and pleaded guilty! Watch this corruption in real time! Thanx Liz Oyer! 🔥🔥

A pardon for a convicted drug trafficker, firey death in tiny boats for men accused without evidence of drug trafficking. This was never about protecting the American people. It was always about power and influence. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/28/w...

It really cannot be overstated how dangerous this kind of propaganda is and how open this call to a very specific audience is. This is terrorism and those listening will hear its message.

The federal government is making open threats of genocidal violence now from its social media platforms. This is a literal turner diary or siege level Neo Nazi call to action and is an attempt to foment violence against anyone who is not white, male and Christian.

trump will pardon or assist any head of state who has been convicted for crimes. acting out of self preservation, basically

Watch El Chapo be next to get a pardon since he’s pardoning drug dealers / traffickers.

This should enrage everyone. Kelly didn’t do anything wrong here, and he certainly didn’t do anything worthy of a court martial

When the GOP has lost *checks notes*… Ron Paul, we’re really living in the upside down

Unbelievable. Very few things piss me off more than anti-vax morons killing their children.

Wanna see what a real traitor looks like? Here you go. Witkoff is advising Russia how to get they want at the expense of both the United States and Ukraine.

Fuck. Both Guard members shot near the White House have died.

Oh look. The right is calling for civil war again. Over a crime that everyone thinks is fucking abhorrent.

This is a highly unusual order from a Secretary of Defense, and it’s almost certainly a war crime. In the strike in question, two people survived and were clinging to the side of the ruined boat, and a second mission was spun up to execute them.

8/ Every authoritarian project begins by defining who belongs & who does not. Today’s feed made that distinction explicit. They’re building a moral universe where exclusion is virtue & punishment is justice. We can’t meet this moment w/silence. We have to expose playbook in real time #NarrativeWatch

7/ You also saw the machinery of deception running at full speed. Misattributed videos. False claims of “millions removed.” Manufactured stories of Social Security fraud. It’s not accidental. It’s the firehose strategy designed to replace reality with narrative. #AllTheyDoIsLie #NarrativeWatch

6/ The emotional tone wasn’t fear but triumph. That’s the tell. Fear creates compliance. Triumph creates participation. They want people not just to accept mass removal but to cheer it, defend it, and demand escalation. That is how democracies destabilize from within.

5/ The central narrative line was breathtakingly clear. “Reverse migration” isn’t a policy idea. It’s a worldview. A demand to reorder society thru forced exclusion. A justification for denaturalization. A permission slip for rights violations. And they’re pushing it as patriotic truth. #RightWatch

4/ What stood out was how tightly they synced the emotional cues. Laughing emojis. Clapping emojis. “This is what I voted for.” They want an America where empathy is weakness and state power targets groups. That is the architecture of authoritarian rule.

3/ Today’s loop was identical across accounts. ICE raid videos. Courthouse arrests. Club raids. Airport detentions. Every clip reframed as victory, never context. The message wasn’t safety or justice. It was domination. It was punishment as national identity. It was mass removal as entertainment.

2/ When you see posts like “I voted for every ounce of this” and “Non assets won’t be here for long,” you’re not watching policy discourse. You’re watching a community being conditioned to cheer human suffering. The cruelty is the loyalty test. The repetition is the reinforcement mechanism.
