This Yglesias piece in the NYT is horrifically bad. Almost every "fact" it cites is provably false. At best it is cocktail party banter from a pundit who knows nothing of energy. At worst, it was cut/paste from oil industry talking points. So, a rebuttal: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/o...

As others have noted, these redactions appear to be blatantly illegal (assuming Fox News' report is correct). www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...

There's a lot you could say about this unhinged, late night rant from the President. But the most reckless part is how easily he throws around the word "seditious" whenever someone says something he doesn't like. It undermines our democracy and puts people in danger.

Isn’t everyone done with his bullshit now?

I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired. If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted. If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

QUIET PIGGY

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

This 60 minutes Binance report would be administration ending for any past president and presumably in most modern democracies. But the pubs will shrug and ignore it. Not that it’s anything new, but it’s something to see it on broadcast tv

I just found out that Chuck Grassley is literally half as old as Iowa itself.

Oh …

HAPPENING NOW: Judge McConnell is sharply rebuking the Trump administration for what he said was defying his order to make full SNAP payments by Nov. 5. He has ordered USDA to make the *full* payment to states by tomorrow.

Holy shit

Thou shalt not refuse to swear in elected officials because you’re desperately trying to cover up sex crimes by billionaire pedophiles.

I will not back down. Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power. What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

Bill Cassidy is a pusillanimous cretin who betrayed his oath as a doctor by allowing RFK to hijack our public health system.

I gave my heart and soul to that place. Built entire sections for journalists pushed out of their home countries. When the writer I hired, Jamal Khashoggi was murdered by Saudi Arabia, they paraded me around as a symbol for press freedom. I put MY LIFE on the line to defend journalism and WaPo.

Senator Mullin just said Dr Monarez’s personality is not correct

Fuck RFK Jr. I’m hopeful this testimony will be the last straw for him as head of HHS

Though the FDA narrowed criteria for the shots, many people still want them, to avoid illness and protect vulnerable family members. Some are turned down at the pharmacy or have to jump through hoops.

This is a paragraph Brett Kavanaugh wrote on his little computer and then sent out into the world:

The invasion of body snatchers is here and Thom Tillis is its first victim

Death RFK is going to go after mifepristone at Senator Lankford’s bidding

RFK points out trust Europe has better healthcare than us 🤔

Is RFK Jr having a heart attack?

Find your friends. Hug your kids. Choose your fight.

I made a "Paul Blart, ICE cop" joke when this all began, but I think we're actually there now.

Found the home base of criminals in D.C.

This is so sad

It drives Jonathan Turley crazy when I remind everyone that he is just Mike Lindell with tenure. So, please make sure not to amplify this message.👇 Jonathan Turley is just Mike Lindell with tenure.

The one where Donald Trump tells a lechy story about hiring a 17 year old girl with no experience because she was “SO beautiful.” He closes by equating his addiction to beautiful girls with others’ alcoholism. It’s a compulsion! Whattaya gonna do, right?! 🫤

just read a post saying 75% of twitter activity is bots but this is the remaining 25% lol

As I just said on CNN, my father's parents were Nakba survivors. I don't want Israeli children to live in fear and I don't want Palestinian children to starve to death. There is nothing anyone could do to make me put nationalistic talking points above basic human rights.

I finally made it www.foxnews.com/media/bluesk...

Vaguely recall how much of the MAGA world insisted very loudly in Murthy v. Missouri that the WH should never, ever, in any circumstance, try to pressure a media organization over it editorial policies, and how this was a catastrophic attack on the First Amendment.

I'm not sure what's your point, but yes, when the terrible tragedy happened in Uvalde, I tweeted about the associated GoFundMe with my small, nobody account (had few followers back then). I've also tried to support the families in their pursuit of justice. Doesn't matter to me where someone lives.

Who is this dipshit?

Is this it? Just turned to the last page in his binder

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is still going, holding up this vote. He's giving you time. If you live in a red district, call your reps and get on them not to vote for this.

Maybe all the folks finding new ways to moan about Jeffries should spend that energy and the time Jeffries is buying us to call a Republican House member instead

Binder change!

Hell yeah #magicminute @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

The way he’s talking I seriously think he’s planning on Booker-level filibuster

Yep. “Planning to take my sweet time.”

Pubs getting antsy?
