First off, my suspension has ended. Got a little harsh with a post a few days ago but I didn’t have my feet on the ground and I’m sorry if I offended anyone. Will try to be more chipper. Knock on wood!

❗️Previously, Finland imported almost 50% of its electricity from Russia, now this figure has dropped to almost zero - DW

My comments are almost uniformly “SO HE GOT HIS WORKAROUND! NOTHING WILL BE RELEASED.” For the fourth time: NO! The act prohibits exactly that kind of thing in two separate clauses. Dems and Massie thought ahead.

This comes hours, weeks and months after multiple business deals were announced between the Saudi global wealth fund and Trump Org worth several billion dollars. The Saudis are one of the Trump family’s biggest business partners.

Mike Johnson claims House Republicans did "some of the best work of their careers" during the govt shutdown

Guilty until proven innocent

Quite a staggering statistic. Trump isn’t just bringing misery to immigrants, he’s harming everyone. #TrumpSlump

Rep. Pete Sessions: "Would I love to see Ted Cruz being our presidential nominee for the Republican Party? Yes I would."

Trump: "We have lost hundreds of thousands of people a year... and much of it comes through Mexico. So, let me just put it this way, I am NOT happy with Mexico."

TRUMP: "Would I launch strikes in Mexico to stop drugs? It's okay with me."

Trump: “Colombia has cocaine factories where they make cocaine. “Would I knock out those factories? I would be proud to do it, personally. “I didn't say I'm doing it, but I would be proud to do it.” What country would want to be a neighbour of the US right now?

All going well.

NEW: The Trump administration's brutal removal of so many workers is projected to shrink the nation’s GDP by as much as 6.8% — a deeper hit than the one sustained during the Great Recession. A.J. Schumann:

Not sure how am going to teach on rights and citizenship and immigration and refugee policies tomorrow. UK government just dropped policy that is way outside the parameters of the global surveys we read. What has happened here? I literally do not know.

But we know there's a veto-proof majority in the House, and the Senate is under enormous pressure in the same direction. Imagine being a Senator voting to protect president p8dophile in this era with this much noise. NOPE.

Trump: “Some of the people that we mentioned are being looked at very seriously for their relationship to Jeffrey Epstein, but they were with him all the time. I wasn’t. I wasn’t at all.”

He’s losing it.

Ya think? 🤣 www.cnn.com/2025/11/17/p...

I don’t trust the sudden twist on Epstein files one bit.. you?

Donald Trump himself sure doesn't seem to think the Epstein files are a distraction! www.thebulwark.com/p/trumps-eps...

Chief of the General Staff of the Polish Army General Wiesław Kukułaon on sabotage and cyberattacks in Poland: “The adversary has begun preparing for war. They are building a certain environment here, which is intended to create favorable conditions for potential aggression on Polish territory.”

Next year, Americans will see the biggest jump in health insurance costs in 15 years. Meanwhile, the seven largest health insurance companies made a combined $71B in profits in 2024. It’s far past time for Medicare for All. Here’s what you need to know.

The DOJ engaged in a “disturbing pattern of profound investigative missteps” in an indictment against former FBI Dir James Comey. Magistrate Judge William Fitzpatric ruled for prosecutors to produce to defense lawyers all grand jury materials of what they presented to the grand jury.

"No, really. We’re going to do this. So strap in. I promise you’re going to hate it." @jvl.bsky.social on MTG in today's Triad: www.thebulwark.com/p/marjorie-t...

Sanders: The wealthiest people on earth are pouring hundreds of billions into research and development for AI and robotics. You think they’re doing that because they’re thinking, “Oh man, this is going to be something that will improve life for working people, for low-income people.”?

Breaking News: A federal judge said that the case against James Comey, the former FBI director, could be in serious trouble because of apparent misconduct by the Justice Department's inexperienced prosecutor picked by President Trump to handle the matter.

To the core.

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social hired former FTC Chair Lina Khan to run his transition team. She's an excellent pick with an eye for rooting out how big corporations are making your life unaffordable. One way they're doing that? Surveillance pricing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cbtUYshYM8

Japan scrambled fighter jets multiple times over the weekend due to suspected airspace violations by Chinese aircraft over the Sea of Okhotsk, East China Sea, and western Pacific. China has not been happy about recent comments the Japanese PM made about Taiwan.

It goes to show how hypocritical the whole Trump Whitehouse “Antisemitism” campaign is. They go after people who actually fight nazis, even calling Jewish people “antisemitic” or “Self hating” for criticizing a genocide, then embrace true nazis within the right www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

Axios says Ted Cruz has started positioning himself for a 2028 White House bid. So that’s him and Marjorie Taylor Greene so far. Should be quite the 🤡 show.

🔥REPUBLICAN Rep. Jody Barrett: “@GovBillLee’s vouchers are fiscally irresponsible… they went primarily to kids already in private schools… tax dollars from rural counties are subsidizing private school kids in Williamson…” (Voucher vultures just dumped millions into TN-7 to help Van Epps beat him)

❗️German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius, in an interview with Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, warned that Russia could attack NATO’s eastern flank as early as 2028 (a year earlier than the previous forecast of 2029), and some historians believe that the summer of 2025 was the last peaceful one.

I know this is eminently mockable. I knew it a lonnnng time ago. I do not protest the mocking. I'll mock with you. I'd just like to mention that at one point Olivia really WAS a good writer; the odd quirky stuff was just right rather than totally wrong I tried🤷🏼‍♂️ www.vanityfair.com/news/story/o...
