Can we skip to the part where we argue whether he should lie in state or by the buffet? @stephenathome.bsky.social

If in 2015 you had told me, US citizens would be held hostage by a president threatening Denmark and lurking around Cuba … I would have said, “For that to happen, the nation would first have to go insane.”

Q: "I know there's a reluctance to talk about Greenland, but what value do these commitments have as Washington talks about seizing territory of a fellow NATO member?" Good Q! 🤷🏼 (Also: Trump’s son in law and biz partner standing next to world leaders is a corrupt disgrace)

Former Special Counsel, Jack Smith, explicitly states: "President Trump was by a large measure the most culpable and most responsible person in this conspiracy. These crimes were committed for his benefit. The attack that happened at the Capitol, part of this case, does not happen without him."

January 6 was the beginning of the end of everything, not just because of what happened that day but largely because of everything that ~didn’t happen~ after. There is no “unity” without political accountability. January 6 succeeded because our systems failed and we are here.

The president against remote work has been at his house in Florida for 3 weeks.

I’m surprised Taylor Sheridan isn’t already in his cabinet.

No one voted for this utter depravity. Impeach and remove.

Where are the Epstein Files?

Trump has accomplished the feat of replicating 12 years of disastrous Reagan-Bush era foreign policy and tax + spending reforms in just 11 months. Truly impressive

Himes: "I was delighted to hear that Tom Cotton, chairmen of the Senate Intel Committee, has been in regular contact with the admin. I've had zero outreach and no D I'm aware of has. So apparently we're now in a world where the legal obligation to keep Congress informed only applies to your party."

Venezuela is the dress rehearsal. Rubio is counting on Cuba.

Maduro Requests Lindsay Halligan to Prosecute Him

@vtcommons.bsky.social … because of mid-term elections Trump GOP is likely to lose … the horizon is shorter: expect an accelerated schedule.

I wonder who Maduro is going to have to bribe to get a pardon?

Anyone could see this coming.

The international version of Landman.

Guaranteed: Putin encouraged Trump's adventurism, seeing in it a fatal mistake and opportunity to energize opposition to the "imperialist" USA. China will also view the US incursion as justification for violence against Taiwan. Shitshow. @hcrichardson.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2026/01/03/o...

A true American leader.

Trump promising to rescue non-violent Iranian protesters being brutalized by their government as here at home he authorizes and condones non-violent *American* protesters being brutalized by *his* government (to include urging that they be shot in the legs) is certainly a new take on "America First"

Mamdani has only been Mayor for a day & criminals are already fleeing New York

The “newly discovered” Epstein archive contains 5 million more pages than the GOP healthcare plan.

Thanks MAGA.

Public librarians deserve higher pay. I love public libraries.

Rob Dannenberg, former CIA head of Moscow Station: "Putin looks at Trump and sees a weak guy, vain, with huge ego…. He's being manipulated in the way that a good case officer like Putin would manipulate this guy. He's not monogamous, he's greedy, he's fascinated by gold —

My main takeaway from the Jack Smith testimony: we should push our presidential candidate to make him Attorney General in 2029.

Oh. MAGA, what about that?

going to reiterate my call to nationalize Twitter and then sell it off to responsible investors

Did you know that the homicide rate in NYC is roughly 20% the homicide rate in Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana and Tennessee? If you watch Fox News, you don't know that. Fox has been smearing the Apple with false claims about crime for a decade now.

What? Oh.

Smith: He was getting calls from people he trusts, people he relies on—and he still refused to come to the aid of the people at the Capitol. That’s very important evidence for criminal intent in our case.

So wherever you are in the world right now, think of Ukraine, and think of the fact that this is the only capital of any country in the world right now that looks like this. And most of all, remember who caused it." - @caolanrob.bsky.social

Who has Trump insulted this year?

Trump announced the discount while wearing a sandwich board outside the venue.

Imagine if scientists could figure out how Earth's climate has varied for hundreds of millions of years, build sophisticated computers to project how humans are now radically altering it, and warn the public, only to have greedy corporations & venal politicians ignore them. Criminal. Immoral. Evil.
