The degrading of the American Presidency continues. This is genuinely one of the saddest, most demeaning, most degrading moments for an American president. The empty hole you fill with narcissism can't be filled with gold or faux peace buddy.

Reminder: This vast consolidation of wealth and power at the top has not been due to neutral market forces. There’s no such thing as a “free market.” It is designed. It either advances public purposes or it serves the monied interests.

SCOTUS is nothing more than an arm of the GOP. Expand the Court. Impose term limits.

My Total Wine delivery person was Felipe, from Peru. He was wearing a Waterloo Black Hawks t-shirt. I told him my grandfather was born in Waterloo, Ontario (neither Felipe nor I knew that the Black Hawks play in Waterloo, Iowa). I didn’t ask his immigration status, he didn’t ask about mine.

My insatiable desire for drugs has certainly gone away since the Trump administration started blowing up a few small boats it claims without evidence are carrying drugs across the Caribbean Sea. Fixed it!

Those who suppported a bigoted sociopath are shocked when he turns out to be a bigoted sociopath.🤔 www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/ne...

Trump has murdered four more people, bringing the death toll to 87. www.cbsnews.com/news/4-kille...

Just makes you proud to be an American, doesn’t it? 🇺🇸⚾️🌭🥧 www.nytimes.com/2025/12/02/u...

Heard today on @npr.org: “Legendary guitarist Steve Cropper has died. Cropper is best known for playing his Fender Telecaster on hits like “Green Onions”. (plays the five second intro to “Green Onions“ which includes absolutely no guitar) www.youtube.com/watch?v=0oox...

Trump is summarily executing people suspected of being drug dealers, without providing any proof. How close are we to Trump ordering the execution of Americans he considers opponents? https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-illegal-executions

The well regulated militia: keeping us safe from tyrannical salt spreaders since 1791.

Murdering crew members claiming they were smuggling drugs while pardoning a drug kingpin. Very on brand for the Trump regime.

-MRIs are used to track dementia -Trump forgets what part of his body was scanned with MRI -forgetfulness is a sign of dementia As someone who has had several MRIs, I can tell you it’s hard to forget what part of the body is scanned. apnews.com/article/dona...

Math is hard

All available evidence suggests that the Trump administration’s lethal strikes in the Caribbean constitute murder, plain and simple.

And we have KILLED 80 supposed low-level smugglers. This is as crazy as it is downright obscene. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/28/w...

And we wonder why Democratic veterans felt the need to remind soldiers they didn’t have to follow unlawful orders?

BREAKING! FBI SHOCKED!

Trump and DOGE made a big show out of firing federal workers. They and the rest of the Republicans justified the moves as necessary to get the deficit under control. FAIL

“the most openly corrupt president in American history“

The 20 biggest political donors on the Forbes billionaires list have collectively given nearly $5 billion between 2015 and 2024. We must get Big Money out of politics. No one from either party should be able to buy an election.

President Trump's refusal to share the legal justification for his airstrikes on civilian boats at sea is shocking, but not unprecedented. For too long, both parties have looked the other way as presidents abuse their power and evade accountability.

It’s odd that coffee is featured prominently in this photo. Since I buy coffee online, I can check price changes over time: +21% in one year.

Truly deplorable.

Public schools are for education, not evangelization.

Trump would have trouble just spelling “IQ”.

There is a quote often attributed to the late Representative John Dingell: “We already have a national healthcare plan. It’s called Medicare.” Why do Republicans refuse to adopt this simple solution? www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

This is the best takedown of Musk I’ve ever read. From a beloved author around my age no less, Joyce Carol Oates.

This is the Surrender Caucus:

The White House knows it tried to steal an election and stage a coup in Jan. 2021 with their help. Now it wants to bury the evidence beneath pardons. State AGs, you know what you need to do.

Miserable fools. Every one. Absolutely disgraceful.

Happy Carl Sagan Day! He played a highly influential role in my life.

That’s the result to expect when they cut the price of Ozempic by 1500 percent!

Simply put, none of this is true. In tomorrow's column I note the average price of gas is more than $3/gallon, not close to $2, but whatever. And the Walmart Thanksgiving thing has already been repeatedly debunked. This is a rambling loon living in a made-up world where others tell him fake things.

This is the 16th strike of its kind this year — and at least 66 people are dead because of the government’s rash actions. These extrajudicial strikes are illegal under both international and domestic law.

MAGA is losing what little is left of their minds. Note to backwoods Tenesee Bible-thumpers: you can’t deport a U.S. citizen.

I’ve come to the conclusion that the Republican party consists entirely of podcasters.

Unconstitutional. Full stop.
