The timing of Trump’s deals with the Saudis tells a disturbing story. Before he became president, he never managed to break into the kingdom’s real-estate market. But during his first term, he proved his worth. (Atl.)

"The US does not have legal authority to close another country's airspace and the Venezuelan statement accused Trump of making a "colonialist threat"." He's posturing. It's one of his idiosyncrasies. HE'S AN EGOMANIAC...what do we expect? #Pinks www.bbc.com/news/article...

I spoke with Betty. She was very emotional and asked me to tell you that “she would love to give each one of you a great big hug.” We’re so close to changing her life. If you can give $5 or $10, it would be awesome. If not, I completely understand, but a repost is free. Thanks very much.

1/ You must refuse illegal orders.” That’s what 6 Democratic members of Congress said on video. Trump called it seditious. The FBI launched an investigation. Then came reporting in WAPO about an order SecDef Hegseth gave ahead of the 9/2 attack on a boat allegedly trafficking drugs in the Caribbean.

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime. If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder. It’s that simple.

We’re the only country that lets the gun lobby write the laws and then pretends to be shocked when children end up in coffins. NEW UPDATE: The San Joaquin County Sheriff’s Office has announced that four of the victims shot in the Stockton mass shooting were ages 8, 9, 14, and 21.

Kaine: "We had to pry with a crowbar after weeks and weeks out of the administration the supposed rationale for the strikes in international waters. It was very shoddy. It was not at all persuasive that these are legal actions ... It's time for Congress to rein in the president."

..."They are symbols of fierce nationalisms and of militarism, of intrigue and war-making...civilization cannot tolerate their being ignored, because it cannot survive their being repeated." - Robert Jackson, US chief prosecutor at the International Military Tribunal, Nuremberg via Steve Schmidt

“That's why we need presidents and secretaries of defense who understand the Constitution" Bingo! And we clearly do not have that. Besides not understanding the Constitution, they have no respect for it.

"There is no way that [Trump] should have time to have a conversation with me about Indiana mapmaking when that’s not his business, for starters. But secondly, doesn’t he have anything better to do? I can make a big list of things that are more important for him to focus on."

This abrupt ending to what was days of cloud cover was just amazing to watch. The clouds moved off as the sun came up behind them. Not the most amazing photo given all the houses but an amazing moment to witness! From my back yard in #Pittsburgh #photography

Mark Kelly: “Pete Hegseth is not a serious person. He’s unqualified for this job. I think he is the least qualified Secretary of Defense in the history of our country by far. & this President thinks he can bully & intimidate people? He’s not gonna stop me from speaking out & holding him accountable”

Let's start this snowy Sunday with a feel good story. The story is about a wrong number, the awesome lady who answered the call, and understood the assignment presented to her by karma. Answer the jail call. Sometimes it's a wrong number, and they need kindness, not hostility. #SheShed

Unwell and insane!

Mark Kelly: “I said something simple and non-controversial, and Donald Trump said I should be hanged, executed, prosecuted. Pete Hegseth said I should be court-martialed. We say follow the law and this is their response? These are not serious people. We’re standing up for the Constitution.”

“I’LL be the judge of who a judge is!”

Amazon workers go on strike world-wide. “From Germany to Bangladesh, thousands of workers walked off the job on Friday and marched against Amazon’s labor practices to push for better wages, working conditions, and union protections." www.commondreams.org/news/make-am...

We cannot let this be normal. A sitting United States President has called for ‘death’ to sitting Members of Congress. Those who he targets — veterans, intelligence community, federal workers — must stand up and fight.

We are NOT at war. All of it is a crime. All of it.

Found this guy buried in the snow this morning. Not sure what to do with him!?!?!

Alina Habba’s parents emigrated to the US from Iraq citing persecution.

Who wants to tell her?

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps. McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay. Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay. See the problem?

Every single resident of a community should be counted in the census so that everyone in that community — including U.S. citizens — have the resources they need. It’s that simple.

Mark Kelly: "This president, when he says things like 'third world countries,' what is he really saying? I think what he's saying is he doesn't want brown people in our country. And that's disturbing. It's un-American."

🇺🇸 SEN. KELLY: “We said something very simple and non-controversial, and the president said ‘hang them’ — Hegseth is the least qualified Secretary of Defense in our history, and the president doesn’t understand the constitution.”

BASH: Trump is clearly very concerned about Central & South American presidents allegedly trafficking drugs to the US. So why is he planning to pardon former Honduran president who was convicted of drug trafficking? MARKWAYNE MULLIN: Well, the particular circumstances of that I'm not quite aware of

Exactly 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕 It's All they have It's weak, just like them No one except the cult, believe them 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

My heart is heavy this morning. There was a mass shooting down the street from where I live. 4 children are dead and 10 injured. Victims range from 8 to 22. Please keep our community in our prayers. #USDemocrscy www.cnn.com/2025/11/30/u...

It’s “not talking about race” in the same way that “I’m not saying your mom is a bitch, but” is not talking about your mother being a bitch

Mark Kelly: "We have a president who doesn't understand the Constitution, who installed an unqualified secretary of defense. I cannot think of a secretary of defense in the history of our country that is less qualified than Pete Hegseth. He should've been fired after Signal-gate."

This says it all. At this dangerous stage of Trump's plans, it's time to stop him, not talk about it.

Absolutely. Court rulings that go unenforced are just legalistic noise, encouraging further contempt for the law.
