We were making progress in public health. Then came Mr. Kennedy. Under his leadership, we have deleted decades of progress, as slow and imperfect as it was. His campaign to destroy the U.S. vaccine program will make vaccines much less accessible to those with the least, which means…

Previous Missouri pre-filed bills have called to legalize everything from brass knuckles to the open carry of long guns for children to murder charges for doctors who provide abortions. A collection of the worst wish lists from the worst legislators. open.substack.com/pub/jesspipe...

Issa Rae has canceled her sold out performance at the Kennedy Center. Pulitzer Prize winner Rhiannon Giddens, Peter Wolf, Low Cut Connie, and the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, D.C., have also canceled. Lin-Manuel Miranda has canceled the entire Kennedy Center run of Hamilton.

Trump finishes 2025 with his plans for marble armrests (what?), gold-plated bathroom fixtures, and massive new ballroom. Americans? Still waiting on those lower costs he promised.

🧵Where did Alexia Palmer go? Another Trump-Epstein accuser who has vanished She sued a Trump-affiliated modeling agency in federal court, produced docs alleging visa fraud & exploitation, and then disappeared from public view Her case should have triggered a congressional inquiry This is why:

Of course the felon did. If you’re not woke, you should be. I’m not sorry if bad news is against your Christmas celebration or you just like pretending all is okay. I have news for you, it’s happening whether you want to see it or not. So piss off. open.substack.com/pub/simonwdc...

“The real motive of Trump’s attacks on Nigeria appears to be driven by a desire to seize massive oil and lithium deposits. Do not let this distract you from the Epstein files, but also do not let the propaganda prevent an actual understanding of what took place”… open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

🇺🇸 Here’s something I hope you consider most of all today, patriots: "Trump isn’t even close to as powerful as he wants you to think he is, and you are far, far more powerful than you think you are. WE are leading the change and the charge. And we WILL win. I swear to God we will ..."

“Release everything” wasn’t a moral statement. It was a trap...and Trump walked straight into it.🔥👇 www.jackhopkinsnow.com

The president says he’s giving members of the military $1,776. It doesn’t make up for all the damage to the VA. Commentary ↓

It’s time for Roberts to step down and to reform the Supreme Court.

Trump spent $230 million to remodel the White House. It sucks. You can support our journalism for just $5/month. It rocks. This holiday season, donate to us if you can. One donation from YOU can make all the difference: tinyurl.com/y6wzer7w

The most common question I receive is how everyday citizens can help in the fight for democracy. My advice, take the first step, start with something small and see what works for you. Here are ten things all of us can do. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

Days after Ghislaine Maxwell asked a judge to immediately free her from a 20-year prison sentence, the public release of grand jury transcripts from her sex trafficking case returned the spotlight to victims whose allegations helped land her behind bars.

What kind of president threatens another party that this could be their last Christmas? Does your state or Congressional Representative support this kind of rhetoric. Find out and if so, let’s fire them all.

Be woke and proud. Accurate information is everything. Sen. Whitehouse has been writing about this for years.

Let’s start the new year by recognizing members of Congress who have stood up for us. It’s also a good time to encourage others, regardless of party, to stand up against fascism, not just in whispers but in loud voices. The Best of the Congress open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

Kushner and Witkoff are murder-inducing monsters. They drafted these plans way before the war in Gaza started. Just watch their 60 Minutes interview with Leslie Stahl below. They had this deal in place 2 years ago before Hamas even attacked Israel. That was not by chance.

here's today's post: "is the DOJ creating bogus Dead Pedo Bestie Files in order to protect Dear Leader?" — what the fuck is going on? thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter to keep getting the good stuff —

New doc: A letter Epstein appears to have sent from jail to Larry Nassar referencing "our president." "Our president also shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

9/ As of right now, nothing has changed. All vaccines are still available. But HHS clearly intends to make dramatic moves on childhood vaccines, and public health experts are mobilizing to prevent chaos. I will be sure to bring you up to date if anything changes.

Trump's Big Beautiful Bill cuts $4.5 trillion in taxes for the ultra-rich—paid for by the rest of us.

🧵While the tentacles of Epstein engulf Trump, ICE is literally locking courtrooms to hold secret hearings. They don’t want you to see what they’re doing inside. What's going on at Minnesota's immigration courts should alarm everyone.

In case you missed it.

DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar: "Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

This is where we’re headed. American isn’t getting great, it’s being destroyed.

Watch then share.

Please share.

Farewell to CBS News and "60 Minutes." It just went the way of the Washington Post's editorial page Once you begin surrendering to Trump, he always wants more. You can’t appease a tyrant. Some thoughts...

Demented dotard is the literal definition of death, destruction, deportation, disease, and dumbfuckery.

JD Vance lives in the bigot mythology of imagined persecution and nonexistent oppression that has convinced generations of mediocre white people that this nation is somehow conspiring against them, despite them being beneficiaries of its every advantage. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/jd-vance-d...

Maybe one of the new MAGA patriotic cheerleader Pentagon reporters can check their sources for us and do a story.

Thank you to all of the liberal farmers who aren’t afraid to stand up for humanity. We see you. substack.com/@cassidyfewe...

Public funds belong in public schools — not private interests. 🔥 “Our public schools are already underfunded, some severely. Taking public resources and diverting them to private education is harmful for the nearly 90 percent of American students in public schools.”

Indivisible volunteers are holding a Monday morning rally outside the Yuma County Superior Courthouse on Dec 22 from 7:30–8am. The peaceful action focuses on visibility and one-on-one conversations with court visitors. #YumaAZ #Arizona #CivicEngagement buff.ly/LupArFn

WTF! The Trump administration plans to review (with the intent to remove or eliminate) some of the nation’s wildlife refuges and fish hatcheries. Agency director Brian Nesvik ordered officials to identify refuges/hatcheries whose purpose the administration claims “no longer aligns with the mission.”

Khanna: Congress is talking about possible impeachment. They're talking about inherent contempt for the attorney general or deputy attorney general—any justice department official who has obstructed justice could face prosecution in this administration or a future administration.

Jack Smith wants to testify in public - Republicans refuse. He wants his depo tape made public - no again. The second strike boat video? - nope. Epstein files law complied with? - not today. Vote on ACA? - maybe next year. Republicans: Hide, obstruct, lie, delay, deny.

JUST IN: Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming will NOT run for reelection in 2026

We now have a bipartisan majority of members of Congress demanding a vote to extend ACA tax credits and keep health care affordable for all Americans. Speaker Johnson, bring this legislation to the House Floor immediately or step out of the way.

Donald Trump lives in a completely different reality than the rest of America. He's totally lost it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQHL...

There isn’t a single Republican watching this and thinking “yep this is great. Exactly what we needed.” GOP congressmen and senators now thinking about hitting the exits
