Stephen Miller wants everyone at 60 Minutes who “engaged in this revolt” (aka told the truth) fired

He is promising, on camera, to break his oath to the Constitution by illegally and unconstitutionally usurping the exclusive authority of Congress. Sprinkle in a little 'blowing up the Union' to boot

Pantone just updated their Color Of The Year

Gee. Wonder how THIS will affect grocery prices, hmmm?

So, Congress holds DOJ/Bondi in contempt and then what happens? Nothing.

Totally get why Bari Weiss spiked it: It is very unflattering to Trump administration, full-stop. There is no ambiguity about Weiss' and David Ellison's motive here in regard to this story: 1. Keep Trump happy so Paramount can buy Warner Brothers (and subsequently ruin/kill CNN, just like CBS).

We really need more town halls with marginalized voices, like the Vice President of the United States and the richest men in the world.

Death By Lightning was very good and pretty accurate historically. Recommended. It was a bit eerie, though, as I see some parallels between the insanity of Guiteau and the inability to see reality in a lot of people today, especially in science and politics. Guess the crazies are just ever-present.

The first answer: "In this country those honors are conferred by consensus after a person's death." The second: "I'm not particularly worried about anyone who thinks a man who spiritually and financially bankrupted us is worthy of his name on a building."

Sign me up!

Trump's speech last night can be summed up by a quote from Macbeth: "...a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."

"In effect, Trump took to the airwaves, pointed his finger, and said: Quiet, piggy." Man, I just LIVE for these articles.

The tariffs will continue until morale improves, you ungrateful peasants.

From your lips to God's ears, but I think those people who support Trump are not going to just go back to being the fringe of the Republican party. They ARE the Republican party.

@radiofreetom.bsky.social Will you live-post on Trump address tonight?

I thought MGT was upset her kids would pay more for ACA premiums. Why wasn't she among those who voted for this? Maybe she's not who she says she is... www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Bingo. The 'resist tyranny' fanatics have no idea what will happen to them once they get the government they seem to want.

I am convinced America crossed an event horizon thirteen years ago, when even the deaths of elementary school aged children at the hands of a monster weren't enough for their government to say "enough is enough". Hard not to think that Americans would rather have their guns over their children.

If you can't laugh and take delight in @radiofreetom.bsky.social's curmudgeonly take on this, there's something wrong with you.

@radiofreetom.bsky.social has such excellent GIF game. Makes me "trust" him ever so much.

Surprisingly civil interaction between Republican and Democratic pundits. www.cnn.com/2025/12/07/p...

An interesting take, but I think it's no better than 50-50. I lean towards SCOTUS upholding tariffs, as their immunity ruling allows Trump able to pretty much do anything.

Hegseth EVER being confirmed as SecDef was bizarre beyond belief, when his book made clear who he was and what he would do. Totally unsurprising that he has done--and will continue to do--"stupid and dangerous" things until he's removed. @radiofreetom.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

Admiral Mitch Bradley either issued an illegal order or obeyed an illegal order, full stop. Pretty sure this is part of what motivated @captmarkkelly.bsky.social and the others to make that video. However, Trump will pardon Hegseth and possibly Bradley as well, so no one will be held accountable.

Hell YES.

I genuinely don't think I can handle the next four years of New York Times headlines. Kill me now.

Wowsa. Journalist @janemayer.bsky.social, who broke the story on Hegseth in the @newyorker.com just said on @maddowblog.bsky.social that since the story broke, her phone has been ringing off the hook with more people calling who witnessed Hegseth’s extreme drunkenness.

Before we even get to the obscene absurdity of trying to put Kash Patel in charge of the FBI, there's an equally important detail: Trump ousting an FBI director without cause — again — is its own scandal. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

By upholding them.

I'm sure this will outrage those who claim Trumpism somehow represents a reaction/backlash against the military industrial complex

What a crock! If he'd said, "I have been sober for X time" it would still not make him qualified. But he's *still* drinking? AYFKM?

Carville is on television right now, talking about how much of what Trump is doing with his nominations is just driven by resentment and if you don’t get that, you’re missing the core issue here. Yep.

Joni Ernst wants the Defense Secretary job for herself, of course—but the fact that she's stepping out so publicly against Hegseth tells me he doesn't have the votes. There's a very real chance Trump could lose two of his original cabinet picks... and more to come (Tulsi, RFK.)

Trump nominated #FBI Dir #KashPatel is thin-skinned. His lawyers just sent me a letter threatening to sue my client @oliviaoftroye.com regarding perceived criticism, which was far tamer than many others have publicly said. Why her? Signals what is abt to begin Jan 20th. #lawfare #retaliation #chaos

The reason the coup attempt in South Korea failed as quickly as it did is because South Koreans immediately rushed to the streets to say “we won’t let you do that” and force the military to decide whether they’d shoot their fellow citizens or not. Important for us remember over the next 4 years.

Dinesh D'Souza admitting his film "2000 Mules" had a "flaw" is like saying the Titanic had a "mild flotational hinderance"

The problem with pardoning Smith and his team is that they have done nothing remotely criminal. Suggesting even the possibility that they have by pardoning them would be a tremendous stain on their honor and reputations. Despite the hell they may be facing, I’d bet they don’t want it.

No. Pardoning someone who has not even been charged with a crime is really stupid. Biden just made it easier for Trump to pardon convicted criminals. Trump was/is going to do it anyway, but now there is no possible argument to be made against that, because Biden effectively removed it.

Drag them to hell @natsechobbyist.bsky.social

So let me get this straight. If you apply for a job at a grocery store, you have to undergo a background check. But, if you apply to be Director of National Intelligence, you don't? Got it.

If Donald Trump and MAGA really wanted abortion rights to go back to the states, then why are Republicans suing to block amendments that passed during the election to give women access to them?
