The Nobel Prize committee should announce the World Cup winner tomorrow

FIFA removing Infantino for inventing a fake award is like the mafia firing someone for “ethical concerns.”

Friday night Tequila Tweet: Fuck all my former colleagues who turned my former political party into a cult. Into a proudly stupid, authoritarian-embracing cult. Fuck their fear. Fuck their selfishness. Fuck their cowardice. They’ve done real damage to their country.

A few months ago, I closed my account. Now that I’m back, I’ve unfortunately lost all my wonderful followers (60K+)—people I truly considered friends & acquaintances—as well as my catalog of 700+ starter packs. If you’re seeing this, I’d really appreciate a follow & a repost. I’ll return the favor.

Layoffs have hit over 1.1M so far this year — the most since the pandemic. Yet corporate profits continue to hit record highs, with corporations increasingly spending those earnings on stock buybacks to enrich execs and shareholders. This is what a rigged economy looks like.

Better than 50% chance there is no FIFA Peace Prize next year and this was a one-off to make the orange toddler happy.

The Supreme Court will rule on birthright citizenship, which will be an opinion on whether words mean what they mean or mean what fascists say.

Today’s PSA: appreciate your neighbors who work weekends to make us safe, fed, and healthy

#Trump pardoned Tim Leiweke — who his own DOJ indicted in July for rigging a public university’s arena bid— It’s all a grift — Saudis to crypto to pardon seekers — everything gets turned into a revenue stream. With 1,500+ pardons already, clemency is a monetized market

Naturally, but the GOP and their MAGA fluffers on social media will have nothing to say about this, and Mike Johnson will pretend not to see this story until 2029. Trump Jr-backed startup gets $600 million dollar government deal.

But Kash Patel and Don Jr aren’t quite intelligent enough to connect the dots, are they In 2020, Joe Biden won. The Democrats were also poised to take control of both the House and Senate The only person who needed a “backup plan” on January 6 was Donald Trump

Pastor Black: While I was in the middle of using the words of Jesus, they opened fire on me. It was so clear that they had been so poorly trained, or — the alternative — that they had been deliberately told to escalate violence against peaceful protesters.

JUST IN: Mike Johnson plans to swear in Rep.-elect Matt Van Epps on Thursday — less than two days after he won the TN-07 special election. As a reminder, it took Johnson 50 days to swear in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva.

Sens. Tim Kaine, Rand Paul, Chuck Schumer, and Adam Schiff have filed a War Powers Resolution to block the use of the U.S. Armed Forces to engage in hostilities within or against Venezuela unless authorized by Congress.

🚨 CNBC on latest jobs numbers: "A big miss on ADP payrolls. The private payroll company saying private payrolls shed 32,000 workers in Nov. That's the 4th negative number in past 6 months. The estimate was for +40,000, so the street was off ... this may be coming from being hammered by the tariffs"

Did you know Trump has added 2.2 trillion to the national debt since taking office 10 months ago?

What an absolute disgrace. There must be consequences for this. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/lin...

@juddlegum.bsky.social: "Prior to Trump’s victory in 2024, Kushner pledged to have no foreign policy or other role in a second Trump administration. He used this promise to wave away concerns about Affinity Partners being used as a vehicle for foreign influence." open.substack.com/pub/populari...

Donald stayed up last night making 162 posts on Truth Social. That type of obsessive derangement can be exhausting.

RFK Jr: "Two weeks ago we ended, under your leadership, a twenty year war on women". Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

Under the bus you go. CNN: 'The White House said Monday that Adm. Frank M. Mitch Bradley, commander of the US Special Operations Command, was responsible for ordering a second, targeted strike on an alleged drug vessel operating in the Caribbean…after the first strike did not kill everyone aboard.'

Alright folks, here we go! Ask me anything, 30ish mins, gogo!

What a bunch of shady creepers.

Looks like Trump and Hegseth might be preparing to throw the military under the bus on the second strike. This is why you don’t execute illegal orders. Because you are responsible

The same people who i used to fight with in the GOP, who wanted to withdraw American troops from everywhere, are now the ones justifying the murder of two survivors. It’s almost like…. It was never about that

The “kill them all” order by SecDef Hegseth would be a textbook war crime even if the original attack had been legal.

Uh ohhh.. someone's fuckety fuck fucked..

Opening the door to throw Hegseth under the bus:

Today’s PSA: don’t forget to breathe in and let go

With the @ajc.com print edition ending, the newsroom looked at some of the breakthrough moments in the paper’s pages that shaped its staff. Here’s mine:

Her parents owe their lives to the United States accepting them as asylum seekers fleeing religious persecution in Iraq in the 1980s. She wouldn't be here if we had not offered her family safe haven. The hypocrisy is stunning.

I’ve started a list of MAGA cracking substack.com/@mollyjongfa...

I’ll let the lawyers and the court s determine the legality is such an order, but Hegseth’s order is grotesquely immoral and extremely damaging to Americas reputation around the world.

FYI, going to do an AMA tomorrow evening, tentatively around 8 pm Eastern. Sorry for the late notice! The holiday weekend pretty much obliterated all of my plans. 😆

Incompetence will save us from full blown autocracy… probably

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

ICE is using Uber stickers in order to disguise themselves and kidnap people. Spread this for awareness!

Home Depot wanted holiday cheer, got a whole-ass choir calling out their partnership with ICE instead…

What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

The United States did not start the war in Ukraine. We owe Putin nothing. Giving him concessions now, like recognizing territories he annexed, would make the US look so weak.

Two things we learned today: 1. Pete Hegseth murdered *suspected* drug runners. 2. Donald Trump pardoned a *convicted* drug trafficker. That’s where we are, folks. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/28/w...
