I hope people understand that if Trump gets his way America will soon be part of the global axis of evil if we aren't already. You see it in the Caribbean, you see it in Ukraine, and you see it with Trump trying to buddy up to Xi. We are a malevolent force.

So much easier to just use the U.S. military to steal from other countries than to actually earn it or make deals, amirite? Thanks, John Roberts, for unleashing this lifelong criminal.

Hear me out. Maybe it’s three ghosts of cognitive tests visiting him in the night.

When any MAGA you know starts wringing their hands and saying they didn’t vote for this, feel free to lambaste them Because not only did he say these types of things during his entire campaign-including the debates-the crowd always cheered They knew EXACTLY what they were voting for

“We needed to scare people. MEDICARE FOR ALL was seen as an existential threat to the insurance industry.” Ex-insurance exec turned #M4All advocate @wendellpotter.bsky.social tells Kanew he helped Cigna & Humana lie to keep universal health care out of 🇺🇸 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DSFsimP...

First time we hear shit from the Black Guy Trump Put At HUD Because That's Where He Thinks Black Guys Go, and it's an even stupider version of the usual MAGA anti-immigrant bullshit.

My mom's really been pestering us for Christmas ideas for our kids, who can be tough to get stuff for. But I hadn't thought of steel.

I hope the Dems realize that if they extend the ACA subsidies, and take no other steps, they are giving carte blanche to the biggest insurance companies and major hospital systems to find new ways to game the system and increase costs.

This keeps happening.

Jesus, just stop. Democrats are winning now. And if some voters feel this way about Democrats, a major reason is that THE FUCKING CONSULTANTS KEEP SAYING THE PARTY IS TOO LIBERAL AND OUT OF TOUCH. They incessantly reinforce the stereotype. washingtonmonthly.com/2025/12/10/t...

Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

Something uplifting for the week: www.youtube.com/watch?v=EM2F...

The next time a small-d democratic party controls Congress, impeaching and removing Emil Bove for high crimes and misdemeanors against the Constitution needs to be on the "to-do" list.

Trump has repeatedly put farmers out of business. Has driven up their costs for everything, including labor. Has them begging him for welfare every year. Tells them he knows more about their business than they do. Lies to them. And they still vote Republican and send him money.

It's vile to kill people with no actual legal justification and also vile to joke about killing those people.

It's really funny when the president jokes about murdering people, see.

Bove has also—after being sworn in as a judge on the Third Circuit—been observed visiting Main Justice for consultations with Bondi and Blanche. Grossly unethical conduct.

Why should we pay attention to red states? Everybody in this country just lost access to student loan forgiveness because of the state of Missouri. You don’t need a coup when you can bribe red state AGs.

How many potato famines have we had?

🇬🇧 🇺🇸 WATCH — @mrjamesob.bsky.social: “I’m going to say this slowly… The President of The United States of America has sided with Putin against the United Kingdom. He has put the whole of Europe in the crosshairs.”

Wow -- Russia reportedly plotted last year to plant bombs on US-bound flights (gift link) giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

Don’t let them try and make this go away. Hegseth must release the full, UNEDITED video of the boat strike to all Americans. Everyone deserves to be able to see and judge for themselves if this man should stay in this role.

Awful: Trump just admitted in a new interview that he knows "very little" about the Honduran ex-president he pardoned. This guy trafficked a gazillion times more drugs into the US than anyone Trump has executed. Wrecks his case for the boat bombings. New from me: newrepublic.com/article/2041...

That is patently false: not only do immigrants score better than native-born Americans in tests, the mere presence of immigrants improve test scores for all students, when factoring in white flight sesp.northwestern.edu/news-events/...

1. Donald hurts farmers with his stupid tariffs. 2. Donald partially bails them out with socialism. 3. Donald pays for that socialism with the tariffs that are hurting American consumers. 4. “Thank you for almost fixing the problem you created with another, bigger problem, Mr. Trump!”

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

Trump claims each blown-up Venezuelan boat “saves 25,000 American lives.” @jvl.bsky.social lays out the facts, walks through the math, the drug routes, and the reality, and breaks down why Trump's lie matters. lnk.thebulwark.com/4aCcPeI?utm_...

Rep. Jasmine Crockett announces her campaign for U.S. Senate for Texas with an ad that uses Trump’s own words against her.

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.”

So when the #AmericanGestapo says their arrests involve people committing crimes, they are technically correct. But the criminals are in ICE, not Home Depot parking lots or street taco stands.

U.S. manufacturing jobs have plummeted, despite promises to bring manufacturing back to US. The latest manufactural drop is the 5th monthly decrease this year, according to ADP. (Chart from Bloomberg)

Unbelievable – House Republicans just killed the first broadly bipartisan housing affordability bill, which would have been a great first step towards lowering skyrocketing rents & mortgages. Republicans are actively torpedoing progress towards lowering your rent.

Farmers: Where’s MY bailout?! Dementia president: Here you go! Farmers, later: Where’s MY bailout?! Dementia president: Here you go!

He looks terrible. You’d think after all the Biden health accusations, the GOP would want to know what was wrong with Trump. But nah, crickets.

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

If you wonder whether these comparisons of Trump to Nazis go too far, remember that Hitler was present in the German political scene long before he created the first death camp And at that point, he was calling Jews “vermin” Which-of course-is not dissimilar from Trump calling Somalis “garbage”
