Still seems like he thinks “stealth” means literally invisible

Yet another excellent courtroom exhibit.

President Zelenskyy: "Putin publicly lied claiming that Russian forces had already taken the city. So, I went to Kupiansk myself to show the world, Putin is lying. We must keep exposing every single Russian falsehood because truth restores justice."

Minnesota’s unemployment rate has been slowly ticking up. Now unemployed Minnesotans are finding it’s taking longer to find work compared to last year, and job fair attendance has been spiking.

Scalise: "Everybody complains, 'Why when I watch TV do I see this Gecko lizard & emu & all these animals out there selling car insurance & homeowners insurance? Why aren't they selling healthcare?' That's bc federal laws prohibit people to have choices for lower cost products for health insurance"

Nothing more than perceived wealth that doesn’t exist for the purposes of taxes, but magically does for the purposes of leverage. Meanwhile, the rest of us pay real taxes on low wages and can’t leverage shit. The game is rigged. Tax the rich.

NYT: “While Mr. Trump does not drink, [Wiles] said he has ‘an alcoholic’s personality’ and operates with ‘a view that there’s nothing he can’t do. Nothing, zero, nothing.’” Trump’s chief affirms what we knew: he doesn’t think anything can stop him. Even the law.

Trump’s Rob Reiner comment was low even for him, but it’s the week of Epstein Files release and Affordable Care deadline, so look for more stupid Trump stuff to distract you from that. Epstein. Health care. Eye on the ball.

He’s so clearly ill and diminished that it remains incredible that it isn’t front page news every day.

Harris: Under Trump’s leadership, prices are up, unemployment is up, inflation is up.. He said—I have to count the pluses—A+++++. That’s how he rated the economy. There is nothing A+ about any of this.

UPDATE: I've heard from Jose's family. He's apparently been transferred to an ICE detention center in TX, but it's been days since they've been able to speak with him. He needs medical care and to be able to speak with his family and lawyer. This obscene cruelty helps no one.

What in the world??

The National Trust for Historic Preservation has filed a federal lawsuit to halt President Trump’s plan to build a massive new ballroom on White House grounds. The administration sidestepped multiple federal laws by advancing the project without required reviews.

Yesterday, in just one day, I am told that the Ukrainians killed or critically wounded 900 Russians. In one day. All for the imperial dreams of a tyrant

EXCLUSIVE: Epstein survivors and Senate Democrats ask for audit to determine if Epstein files have been "tampered with" Just filed ‬⁩ ===> www.cbsnews.com/news/epstein...

Mike Johnson views his primary role as Speaker to prevent as many votes as possible on things that would easily pass because a bipartisan majority favors them. That is exactly what he has done his entire tenure. He blocks things majorities want and keeps the House out of session for long stretches.

Don’t look away. sahanjournal.com/immigration/...

It's so insane that Republicans are elected to any office at all, anywhere.

I’ll re-up the offer: I’ll pay for a weekend for 2 anywhere in the world to the 1st media member who publicly defends their colleague with a variation of “fuck u sir, shame on u, she asked a legit question, you’re out of line, apologize to her” the next time Trump personally insults their colleague.

Great centering under the "Restroom" sign. Haha.

WATCH: An ICE agent pushes away a home security camera as she approaches a house. This is what a police state looks like.

It's official: Rep. Jasmine Crockett has announced she's running for U.S. Senate in Texas.

Bessent disclosed on Sunday that he has recently divested his interests in a soybean farm to "comply with the ethics agreement" he signed last January when he joined the administration. or...tariffs?

Reporter: “Are you committed to releasing the full video?” Trump: “Didn't I just tell you that?” Reporter: “You said that it was up to Sec. Hegseth.” Trump: “You are the most obnoxious reporter in the whole place…You are an obnoxious, actually a terrible reporter.”

It is newsworthy that the president of the United States is increasingly verbally abusive of women reporters and he should be asked about it.

@repespaillat.bsky.social, @velazquez.house.gov, & I introduced the Immigration Court Due Process Protection Act to stop DHS from ambushing immigrants who are showing up to their hearings and appointments. No more fear at the courthouse. No more separating families. Everyone deserves due process.

Accountability for ICE is not a prediction.... It's a PROMISE.

Our farmers want markets, not handouts. www.cnn.com/2025/12/08/p...

SHARE NOW: Texas just got a whole lot louder. Jasmine Crockett is running for the United States Senate and Republicans should be terrified. She’s smart, fearless, relentless, and she doesn’t back down from anybody. This is the matchup Texas deserves. Let’s go.

For more than 125 years, the Supreme Court has affirmed what the Constitution plainly states: anyone born on U.S. soil is a citizen.   Trump’s hateful effort to end birthright citizenship is unlawful & rooted in bigotry.   We must defend this bedrock principle. The 14th Amendment isn’t a suggestion.

A Republican president once picked Ben Bernanke—a future Nobel laureate—because expertise mattered more than spin. That norm, picking Fed chairs for brains not loyalty, does more to protect your paycheck than any campaign slogan.

@meidascanada.ca with @charlieangus104.bsky.social on the "age of gangster monsters". youtu.be/qytkPi0VJQ4?...

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

Polish jets scrambled as Russia bombs Ukraine.

Are they putting up these signs so that Donald knows where he is?

BERMAN: Would it be legal for police in Arkansas to kill suspected drug dealers on a boat in a lake? TOM COTTON: The premise of your question is not well-founded BERMAN: The answer is no. It would not be legal to kill them.

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

This isn’t just a political win for Trump. It’s a blessing for racial gerrymandering for political goals. It’s a gift to the administration’s and congressional GOP’s open embrace of white nationalism to hold power by stripping marginalized groups of their rights. This is an American tragedy.

Democracy dies on the Supreme Court’s shadow docket. From Kagan’s dissent:

Look where this vile man has dragged us down to.

NASA revealed they found some of the building blocks of life in a sample brought back from an asteroid (on a University of Arizona-led mission, by the way). It raises some big questions about whether there’s other life somewhere out there in the universe. According to my math, probably.

Trump's bandaged and discolored hand was visible today during an event where he again at times struggled to keep his eyes open (Chip Somodevilla/Getty)

Putin in 2014: “Don’t believe those who claim that other regions will follow after Crimea. We don’t want Ukraine to be divided; we don’t need that.”

Bookmarked.
