Trump: “One year ago, our country was dead!” The Economist, one year ago:

President Trump is delivering on his promise of retribution against Colorado for the state's mail-in ballots and refusal to release his ally Tina Peters from prison. The Trump team says it plans to close America's foremost weather lab: NCAR. @marshallglasses.bsky.social reports.

Tucker Carlson: “Members of Congress were briefed yesterday that a war is coming, and it’ll be announced in the address to the nation tonight at 9 o’clock by the President… A member of Congress told me that this morning.” Video: Christopher Leonard via X (@ChrisLeonardATL)

BREAKING MS NOW: FBI deputy director Dan Bongino has quietly told confidants he plans to formally leave his job early in the new year and will not be returning to headquarters to work this month, according to eight people briefed on his account. www.ms.now/news/bongino...

MORE from Jack Smith: "Our investigation also developed powerful evidence that showed President Trump willfully retained highly classified documents after he left office in January 2021 ... He then repeatedly tried to obstruct justice to conceal his continued retention of those documents."

BREAKING on MS NOW: Jack Smith, in his opening statement to House Judiciary, says: "Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and to prevent the lawful transfer of power."

NEW: Humanitarian officials staged a last-minute plea to Trump officials at their fancy hotel to re-start food aid $ for a huge refugee camp in Kenya. The Trumpers blew it off and babies starved. @annamaria.bsky.social & Brett Murphy www.propublica.org/article/keny...

A deeply dangerous — and blatantly retaliatory action against Colorado — by the Trump administration. NCAR is one of the most renowned scientific facilities in the WORLD — where scientists perform cutting-edge research everyday. We will fight this reckless directive with every legal tool we have.

One of the biggest moments of my career: USCIS canceled my client’s naturalization oath ceremony. We filed a lawsuit, went to trial, and the judge swore him in right there in the courtroom!

"Tariffs are 'national security!'" "The ballroom is 'national security!'" "Suing the BBC is 'national security!'" "Slaughtering Venezuelan fishermen is 'national security!'" "Torturing day laborers is 'national security!'" NONE of this is "national security" but it is Naziism 101.

LOLOLOLOL hahahahahahaha

Rob Reiner either made your favorite movie, or made somebody you know’s favorite movie. If you’re a Californian, he’s also part of the reason you or your friends can get married. He has changed more lives for the better than this asshole commenting on him ever did.

Just want to share with my American friends how the Australians respond to a shooting tragedy. Action, rather than thoughts and prayers.

this is not behavior becoming of a FIFA Peace Prize recipient.

Elon's little serfs are quite literally begging journalists to come back because every publicly available source of data shows people have fled the platform and young people won't use it. They are literally begging regular people to come back. Don't do it! It is a website by and for actual Nazis!

UPDATE Australia’s New South Wales police say that the perpetrators of the Bondi Beach massacre were a 50-year-old father and his 24-year-old son. The father has been killed and the son is hospitalized with injuries. The father was licensed to own six firearms.

Delighted to share this TEDxGeneva talk! The more I study the digital, the more I'm in awe of the richness and primacy of the analogue world. Don't forget that life is analogue, and all things digital depend on and are but a ghost of the analogue. #AIEthics www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvJe...

Magaziner: We’re trying to make the point that the Trump administration—Kristi Noem, Donald Trump—doesn’t know how to tell the difference between the good guys and the bad guys. If there are people here who are violent criminals, get them out. But that’s not what the Trump administration is doing.

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites. The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

SNL used AI art tonight, multiple times. Booooooo.

Henry Cuellar’s biggest donor is ICE’s largest contractor: private prison company GEO Group. Guess whose budget Democrats just set him up to oversee in 2027

It is important to promise, now, that whatever Trump builds at the White House will be torn down as soon as he leaves. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/if-he-buil...

Nicole Widdersheim of Human Rights Watch warned that US aid cuts have devastated Sudan’s Emergency Response Rooms (ERRs), locally run civilian networks that provide food, medical aid, shelter & coordination for millions where the state has collapsed. She said ERRs are among the most effective...

True Breaking News (Washington Post): VA to cut 35,000 health care jobs across nation like nurses & doctors. VA already strained. Did our vets refuse to give back medals to melt into gold bars/coin/ballroom sconces for Trump? Truly the worst vets’ Christmas present ever.

Trump attacks quickly turn to threats: www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

Brutal but effective public health messaging from New York Public Health. The CDC is compromised. They’re no longer a reliable source of information. They push anti-vaxx & anti-science grift. Get your vaccines. Wear a respirator. Clean the air Get public health advice from experts, not RFK Jr

A 2-1 DC Circuit panel (2 Trump appointees in majority) temporarily blocks Boasberg from conducting a contempt inquiry in JGG, which Boasberg was trying to resume after a different 2-1 DC Circuit panel (2 Trump apptees in majority) blocked it for 7 months. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

WOW. @haleaziz.bsky.social with a new scoop: ICE now gets a running list of every person who is going to be taking a domestic flight inside the United States from the TSA and runs it through their database looking for targets. This explains the Babson College student's arrest.

#Habs Jacob Fowler on 1st game "I didn't have the best pre-game nap or the best sleep, but once you start going through your routine, you realize it's just a bigger building. You try not to look at the last names too much during the game[...] no different than playing a game in Laval" #GoHabsGo

LOL... Pentagon released a new AI military chatbot and it immediately pointed out that Pete Hegseth is a war criminal. abovethelaw.com/2025/12/pent...

#Habs Jacob Fowler on recall "When they let me know I'd have a chance to play tonight, you don't think much. You just want to be part of the solution and help the team win. Two other guys have been great. I have a relationship with both of them. Everybody in this room has the same goal" #GoHabsGo

Israel has killed 249 journalists in the last 2 years. That's more than were killed in WWII & the Vietnam War put together. A Vermonter, Dylan Collins, was wounded in one of these attacks, which killed another reporter. This war against journalists must be investigated & ended.

Garcia: "Just last night we received about 95,000 photographs from the Epstein estate. We've gone through maybe about 25,000 of them so far ... we will continue to put out more photos in the days and weeks ahead."

They would never let me into this country if I weren't already here

DOJ has sued Maine, Oregon, California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Washington, Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, and Vermont for access to its most sensitive voter data. My firm has moved to intervene in 10 of those cases. We are working on the last 4.

WOW; a DEEPLY corrupt move by the immigration courts; clear collaboration with Trump admin officials to produce a specific result with zero notice to the party and ALSO in a situation where the judge facially lacks jurisdiction; the judge had denied a motion to reopen and the case is on appeal.

Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment. They are openly saying this. Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

It wasn’t even close.

Eight months ago vs today. 🤡 @atrupar.com @cnbc.com @cbsnews.com

I couldn’t leave Chicago without getting a cut from my old barber, Zariff!

Watch this. Then remember that the president doesn’t care. He cares that his old ass gets richer in the hand full of years he may have left. And his sick rich friends. The most corrupt evil man to ever serve as president is ignoring real evil
