Why do we give the FBI $10 billion per year

Speaker Mike Johnson says his entire worldview comes from the Bible. But he’s about to kick 2 million Texans off their healthcare right before Christmas. If you aren’t loving your neighbor, then keep Jesus’ name out of your mouth.

🇬🇧Prime Minister @keirstarmer.bsky.social & @davidlammy.bsky.social 8 hunger strikers on day 46 are facing imminent death due to lack of proper healthcare & your refusal to even meet w/ them. Keir Starmer aren't you also a human rights attorney? What the hell are you doing? This is unacceptable!

Nigel Farage’s 25 schoolmates call him out: ‘We have recalled the verbal abuse you regularly directed at … pupils of Jewish, Black and Asian heritage; as well as loudly and proudly proclaiming your high regard for Fascist leaders and orgs, from Hitler to Mosley, from the Nazis to the National Front’

My sense is that the “male loneliness crisis” is not really about addressing men’s emotional needs but rather the relatively newfound absence of having someone to perform domestic labor for you quietly in the background now that there is a longer gap between your mother and your wife doing it

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a video address on Dec 16: “I demand that Western governments do what is necessary to fight anti-Semitism and provide the required safety and security for Jewish communities worldwide.” Comment: You're a convicted war criminal, you demand nothing.

Inside the mother of all Neolithic tombs ... Newgrange in Ireland. This photo, from excavator Michael O'Kelly's book, shows the chamber (with spiral carving) that is illuminated via the famous roofbox opening at winter solstice. A 5,200-yr-old celebration of the return of the sun. #TombTuesday

Just letting KHive know right now, we're not voting for this genocidaire in 2028 either. You have time to find a better candidate. If you don't, you don't get to blame everyone else when the Dems lose yet again.

So many not sees

The European Union wants more power. I think that would be a bad idea.

6 Bangladeshi peacekeepers were killed & at least 8 others wounded in an attack on a UN base in Sudan on Fri, according to UN officials. The peacekeepers were serving with the UN Interim Security Force for Abyei (UNISFA) when the base in the volatile disputed region between Sudan & South Sudan...

There hasn’t been enough appreciation for how thoroughly BENNIE THOMPSON humiliated FBI official GLASHEEN after he tried to sell the lie that ANTIFA is the top domestic terror threat. The claim collapsed because it’s a cover. Check my latest… open.substack.com/pub/cwebbstu...

Make Congress take action and unmask ICE!

Congress just gave $900 billion to the US military in case you were wondering if there were any repercussions for blowing up civilian ships on the high seas. Meanwhile, the FIFA peace participation trophy guy still manages to keep the Epstein list out of the headlines.

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

Two other leaders of Palantir. They make Trump and Musk look sane and reasonable in comparison. Keep these people away from anything vital in Europe

The Supreme Court seems poised to hand Trump autocratic power by allowing him to fire independent agency officials for any reason

A wait-and-see response, even now, and with full knowledge and acknowledgement of the appalling crimes of this Israeli government, makes a mockery of the EU as a champion of human rights, the rule of law and humanitarianism*.

The fallout from being at the controls when a subway train strikes a person — panic attacks, sleepless nights, crippling guilt — can linger for years. But many other systems make it easier for train drivers to get help afterward than the MTA does, a @nytimes.com examination has found.

Poland has cut all diplomatic relations with Israel by boycotting the 2026 Eurovision Song Contest over Israel's participation amid Gaza tensions. Polish lawmakers demand withdrawal, joining Spain, the Netherlands, Ireland, and Slovenia in protest against the EBU's decision.

Ireland, Spain and the Netherlands to boycott Eurovision 2026 as Israel cleared to compete

"You cannot process it. You never will. Just like the last two years. You’ll never process it. When you replace morality with performance, you get a democracy that offers you two choices at the ballot box: pro-genocide, or pro-genocide? Thank goodness for freedom!"

77% of Democratic voters say Israel is committing genocide and 75% want to cut off weapons to Israel. But HRC is out on the road claiming that TikTok and “totally made up” videos are the blame for young people’s opposition to genocide.

Who has made this 🤣

Superb

Not sure how many of ye are still on the X. It's turned into an absolutely vile white supremacist, technofascist, and zionist hell site. Very toxic.

Reposting this everyday until Pete Hagueseth faces justice for his crimes against humanity.

She shouldn't have to keep doing this by herself. She is supposedly a member of a political party and every single one of her *colleagues* should be BLASTING the fascist in chief. ALL OF THEM. Where is the solidarity???

It's not about "drugs." It's about the oil. #HandsOffVenezuela In 2009, a journalist asked if Venezuelan leader Hugo Chávez was "paranoid" about the United States of America and the threat it poses. Via Marwa Osman (Telegram)

New: Hillary Clinton will be speaking at an event hosted by Israel Hayom (Israel's most read newspaper, run by Israeli-American billionaire & Trump megadonor Miriam Adelson). She'll join John Fetterman, Eric Adams, Trump UN Ambassador Mike Waltz, Biden official Amos Hochstein, and Israeli officials

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

The Irish government is ideologically incapable of solving the housing crisis, but it's not only their fault. If you voted for them, you own this just as much as they do, and you need to start fixing it.

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.

"No one's going to build a factory based on a tariff that's on on Monday, off on... Tuesday, the president's changed his mind by Wednesday, he gets hormonal by Thursday and someone says something nasty in the middle school cafeteria on Friday and they're back on again."

An MP in Zimbabwe has called for the repeal of the country's "backwards" 1977 abortion law. He argued that safe abortion should be available to a wider range of Zimbabwean women, as it is currently restricted to a privileged few. Each year, 60,000 women die due to unsafe abortion.

Donald Trump is now facing the lowest approval rating of his second term (36% per Gallup), and his response has been to unleash some of the most openly racist, nativist rhetoric of his presidency, blaming immigrants for nearly every problem in American life. In a Thanksgiving Truth Social post...

🚨NEW: A new poll Americans’ support for Medicare For All has intensified to the point where the old attacks may no longer work. As both parties legislate criticism of socialism, there has been a 50-point shift on a key question in just 6 years. This is YUGE. substack.com/home/post/p-...

this is just gutter racism

I’ll have what she’s having

If there's anything the epstein files have shown us, it's that the world is held hostage by a clan of white western pedophiles — a capitalist ruling class that spends much of its time raping children, exploiting working class people, and unleashing imperialism and genocide on Black and Brown people.
