Because the goal was never “saving” anything. The mission was the destruction of the federal government and the theft of everyone’s data, and they achieved everything they intended to do.

The full spiked 60 Minutes CECOT package, clean & subtitled. 1/5

Here it is

BREAKING: WATCH the full 60 Minutes CECOT segment here. This was sent to me anonymously. It appears to be the segment CBS' Bari Weiss killed. www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...

Worth noting, I guess, that inside of a year we've gone from administration officials taking selfies of themselves at CECOT and bragging about how it's hell on earth to now getting their horrible little media worms to kill stories about it

Don’t forget. Biden’s DoJ was investigating uncharged third parties in the Epstein files up until the last minute. Trump shut down the investigation, sent the files to DC, & fired the prosecutors. They went through them, redacted Trump’s name, then elected not to release them and closed the matter.

Fuck.

To the “lesser of two evils” folks. We would not have spent the day reprimanding Kamala Harris over a morally bankrupt social media post.

LEFT: Heartfelt condolences on Rob Reiner's death from a kind, stable person who should have been president. RIGHT: Obscene gloating over Rob Reiner's death from a delusional sociopath who never should have been president.

“.. The problem isn’t that grocery prices are high .. the problem is that nobody is giving the president credit for all the good things happening in the make-believe world he inhabits.” @rexhuppke.bsky.social www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

DoorDash and UberEats should do an end of year wrapped. I want to know if I'm missing out on delicious food in my area.

All the threats from Trump and his henchmen to Republican state senators in Indiana failed. Mid-decade gerrymandering rejected. This is no small thing. Maybe some other Republicans will finally start to stand up to the Mob Boss.

Scrooge is back

the party that wants unlimited presidential power AND states' rights

… and he SERVED ✨

Presidential Walk of Fatigue

Voting for a lifelong racist/misogynist/bigot in the hope that he will somehow treat you kindly, is plain idiocy. The Somali community now joins several other minority groups in learning this lesson the hard way.

Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

Watching @alivitali.bsky.social and I’m begging folks to stop yielding to the idea that there are potential war crimes when there is no war— Congress hasn’t authorized military action. The DoD is simply ordering the execution of civilians in peace time. Crime against humanity is more apt.

It’s important to note from a military perspective that if a subordinate is about to give an unlawful order & his senior knows about it, it’s also a requirement for the senior official to stop him from executing it. And then counsel/discipline him. So there’s that, too.

TODAY IS THE DAY! GET OUT AND VOTE. Polls are open 7 AM - 7 PM WE GOT THIS!!!!!!

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration. But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants. The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

The wholesale murder of people in international waters, without due process, is a crime. If left unchecked, it will lead to more such crimes. This is how things work. Letting them get away with it is the same as giving them permission to keep doing it.

The president is a political cartoon of corruption come to life, a gaudy grifter who is selling off pardons and lining his pockets, building a golden ballroom and protecting his fellow sex predator elites, all the while regular Americans are suffering and struggling to make ends meet. Run on *that*

Lindsey Graham sponsored the Afghan Adjustment Act: “This is the right thing to do. The people who were there with us in the fight who are here in America need to stay. This will be their new home. We have a moral obligation to these people and they will make great citizens.”

According to Trump and MAGA: Steve Witkoff - hero and patriot. Mark Kelly - traitor who should be executed.

Trump has now cancelled the: - Jobs Report - Inflation Report - GDP Report I’m sure everything is fine.

No…degrees were not “removed” from a list of “professional degrees.” It’s not about mandated reporters, either. The media is getting it wrong, and it is snowballing out of control. Here’s three videos about what’s going on and why we NEED to get this right if we want to stop it:

To everyone saying that people in our military already know not to follow unlawful orders, how do you explain almost 100 civilians murdered on fishing boats in the Caribbean so far?

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Biden didn’t release the Epstein files because Merrick Garland was actively investigating Epstein/Maxwell co-conspirators all the way up until January 2025. Then Trump shuttered the probe. www.cbsnews.com/news/jeffrey...

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump. The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

Blue putting these two together as if they knew...

I’m not opening replies bc there’s gotta be someone in there defending Dems & I don’t wanna fucking hear it. Political creators & our followers have busted our ASSES during this shutdown. We were winning on messaging for once in our miserable lives. We had the GOP on defense. AND THEY WANNA CAVE???

Prices since Trump took office: -Groceries: ⬆️ 2.7% -Utilities: ⬆️ 11% -ACA premiums: ⬆️ 26% -Overall consumer prices: ⬆️ 3% Trump: “I don't want to hear about the affordability.”

Here's the promised longer explainer: www.stevevladeck.com/p/190-snap-wtf

Democrats asked for ONE THING today to reopen the govt: Keep health insurance subsidies where they are at now for one year. That is IT. Nothing else. Republicans said no. So all the lies they tell every day about things Dems are asking for is BS. Republicans OWN this shutdown.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

One reason your electricity bills will go up: simple laws of supply and demand, as data centers dump huge demand obligations onto local utilities without bringing their own supply to the grid. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Karoline Leavitt should resign. They try to make us hate each other to distract from the fact that they're robbing us all blind. It's sick.

A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos." factcheck.afp.com/doc.afp.com....

very funny that JD Vance has so little to do with his time that he goes on podcasts to defend 30-year-old men for saying how much they love Hitler

Police officers who publicly declare that they’ll quit if a mayoral candidate they dislike wins the election are (1) usually bluffing—sure buddy, toss away that paycheck and pension—and (2) exactly the sort of cops cities would be better off without, ones who don’t see themselves as public servants.

This has real -- I intended to dm "Pam" -- energy.

One of the fascist goals is to make life so hard, people are forced to focus on their own struggle. Not the fascism.

A Texas megachurch pastor and GOP leader has been arrested for crimes against children. Not Robert Morris, a different one. Not Josiah Anthony, a different one. Not Luke Cunningham, a different one. Not Tony Evans, a different one. Not Scott Crenshaw, a different one. Not Steve Lawson, a different o

Sometimes you have to take a deep breath and count to 10; realize you wouldn’t look good in prison clothes and walk away.

We’ve entered our first shutdown since 2019. Remind me… Who was president then?
