Trump’s team of Epstein class advisors says it out loud more often than you’d think: “consumers are the last of our concern right now”

It’s crystal clear now that Trump has lost control of this war. He badly misjudged Iran’s ability to retaliate. The region is on fire. 1/ I’m going to explain to you in this🧵what I’ve learned - in part from closed door briefings - about the four biggest current crises.

Midway through Ramadan, Muslims across the United States are striving to maintain the holy month's traditional mix of prayers and festive spirit under a cloud of worrisome events. https://to.pbs.org/4cy5XAm

A DOJ source says FBI agents found the woman who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her as a child to be credible: "They would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying."

IL is on the verge of electing a Senator far more aligned with Trump, MAGA power brokers & ICE infrastructure expansion than the values of a deep-blue state. Here’s what Raja Krishnamoorthi hopes you don’t know about him & how we elect someone better.

New | Dalton Risner re-signs with the #Bengals. Background of what it means, what you didn't know about the OL last season, Risner's impact and the internal pride of continuity up front. www.nytimes.com/athletic/708...

It's grimly comic that SCOTUS told Trump he's essentially an unaccountable dictator if he's willing to exert that authority in virtually any area and now he's (kind of understandably) confused about why it doesn't apply to tariffs

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide. This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

This isn't a message from someone on the fringe or the radical left. Ty Cobb is Trump's former attorney. Everyone needs to wake up.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

I am. But there are three things at play here regarding ICE collecting private data. Quick rundown on the issue, why you should be paying attention, and what I'm doing about it:

HOW IT WORKS IN MOVIES: 1. Government lies 2. Brave heroes release video showing the truth 3. Press says “the government is lying!” HOW IT APPARENTLY WORKS IN REAL LIFE 1. Brave heroes release video showing the truth 2. Government lies 3. Press says “Oh no, what now? So confusing! So hard!”

Imagine how much they’d be lying about what happened without all the videos showing it from multiple angles.

Exactly what Republicans and their voters wanted. Right?

The expiration of tax credits that made health insurance affordable for nearly a quarter of a million middle-income people in Bexar County may put healthcare coverage out of reach for many. Read More👉 ebx.sh/FSoCGW

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

Abolish ICE. Really.

The Trump administration has no interest in helping the democratic, economic, or humanitarian ills confronting Venezuela and will not seek to fundamentally alter the country's current trajectory.

Hell yeah Cody!

Fuckin Myles Murphy!!!!

shit like this is the core of the damage the social internet has done to us we have replaced actual expertise with "some dude with a podcast who makes you feel like his buddy while he bullshits into a microphone" and now a ton of people think that measles and chicken pox are the same

Myles again

This is the optimal game script for the Bengals. TOP for AZ must be ass.

Geno Stone again

Me, a MAGA (having just splattered diarrhea all over your living room and kitchen): oh well if you hate it here so much, leave

When you control the Senate, the House and White House and have been in power for a year but still blame Biden and Obama for the indefensible mess you've made, I think it's you that has Trump Derangement Syndrome

Well, do you ever hear anyone talk about Rush Limbaugh? No. He served a purely cloacal purpose. He was a human sewer pipe, and once death rendered him unfit for that purpose, he was forgotten. These are monstrous people.

Jared Kushner's involvement was "not mentioned in Paramount's press release on Monday morning about its $108 billion bid, nor were participating sovereign wealth funds from Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi and Qatar." fancy that

Scoop: They tried to bury this news on Black Friday, but, well... Trump crypto partner Alt5 Sigma told the SEC its auditor quit in Nov. We called the auditor. He resigned in August. That's the second SEC filing with an apparent conflict that Alt5 Sigma has made in recent weeks. 1/

A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark — and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF

NEW: Jeffrey Epstein said in emails that he had been advising the Russian government on how to deal with Donald Trump, one of several cases in which he wielded his connections to try to influence the course of foreign affairs. w @nahaltoosi www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work." The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting. And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

We've never seen this in Football before. The Democrats drove all the way down to the Republican's 5 yard line. And now they're sending their Punting Unit on the field. So TYPICAL.

The fish rots at the head. Chuck Schumer will go down as one of the worst Senate Leaders in American history. Democratic leadership needs to be voted out root and stem, scorch the earth...

I’m struggling with a QB1 #47

Instead of asking the Speaker of the House if he has a view on <critical separation-of-powers QOTD>, maybe reporters should start asking him if he reads any newspapers or otherwise informs himself on those matters to which we might think the Speaker of the House ought to be paying attention?

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions "Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

This right here, this exact sentence, is THE problem in American political journalism. The IRA *was* cheap energy and good jobs! That was the whole bill! Democrats did precisely what political pundits are telling them to do and the pundits just ignore it.

There is no greater tell right now than Platner attacking Chuck Schumer rather than Susan Collins.

A lot is happening right now. Make a note to yourself to remember, heading into the midterm elections in a year, that GOP senators & reps asking you to vote for them were willing to starve their constituents—your friends, family, maybe even you—for Trump.

GET REKT we were right all along

That’s called burying the lead

This did not make the front page of the NYT, which means the NYT is now state media. Unsubscribe and ignore.

More evidence that the NYT has forfeited their “newspaper of record” status and belongs in the category of pro regime tabloid rag

Amazing

The alleged shooter in Michigan. Weird that Vance and Patel haven’t tweeted out this info. 🤷🏽‍♂️👇🏽 www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

I just watched this, and it's quite enjoyable
