A convicted felon who had also been found liable for sexual assault and committed additional crimes in plain sight was close with a notorious child sex trafficker and likely participated in some of those crimes too got elected with much of that known and spent his presidency railing against “crime.”

it’s now “woke moralism” to say pedophiles should be punished

This proves that ICE is lying about going after the "worst of the worst" and wrongfully taking people off the street without warrants. ICE's lawlessness and brutality is terrorizing kids and communities. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/12/f...

Soooo… looks like the Pedocon theory keeps being proven. It’s like Einstein's Theory of General Relativity but for really shitty people.

The “peace president” is starting a war.

you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric

More impunity for the elite, courtesy of the Trump regime.

petro is so beast

Bovino: "Whether they were criminals or individuals that were taking jobs from Americans -- you name it, that's what they were doing. And I'll tell you what's gonna happen. We're gonna go even harder on the streets. If he releases those 650, we're gonna apprehend 1,650 on the streets of Chicago."

Whole bunch of stuff beginning to make a lot of sense.

Mark Wolf, a federal judge appointed by Reagan, is resigning after 40 years on the bench. In an essay published by The Atlantic this week, he wrote, “The White House’s assault on the rule of law is so deeply disturbing to me that I feel compelled to speak out. Silence, for me, is now intolerable.”

After an economic crash you always see headlines like What Was Everyone Thinking? What do you mean everyone, most of us are waving our arms and screaming every day, it's a handful of insanely rich assholes who aren't listening

There sure is a lot of missing evidence when it comes to DHS.

OH. NO GUNSHOTS, YOU SAY?

There are four leaks to plug for Trump: the survivors, Ghislaine Maxwell, the Epstein Estate, and the 1000+ FBI and DoJ employees he locked in a building and forced to remove his name from the files. Good luck, asshole.

Attacking a federal district judge as an “activist” for issuing a lawful ruling is an assault on judicial independence. A democracy cannot function when executive agencies denigrate judges for doing their jobs.

About half of what it was going to cost to fully fund SNAP in November during the shutdown.

Just a reminder, the coward who refused to accept an election loss in 2020 and then committed crimes trying to overthrow that election will certainly cheat, abuse his powers, and break the law to try to win the 2026 & 2028 elections. He’s a real threat to democracy. Believe it.

In case my position on this wasn’t clear, you can add me to the list.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer. He is a computer safety researcher. And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine. In under 1600 words. aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...

These 8 useless Democratic Senators are all wealthy and have feathered themselves a lovely retirement nest. They don't need to be in these positions anymore. They can amble away into the privileged nothingness that defines their spinelessness and lack of courage. Demand more and better, folks.

fresh off caving, Sen. Jeanne Shaheen is going on Fox & Friends

Agree. Sen Hassan, asked what will happen if Republicans don't carry out the deal, "Well, shame on them." This is not what people were mobilizing for on Oct 18.

I don’t care if Schumer voted no. If he’s unable to wrangle the caucus, he’s not an effective leader. I’ll continue to push for the caucus to elect a new one.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful. Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened. This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

Chuck Schumer gave the go ahead. He recruits his scapegoats and taps someone like Chris Murphy to go play the tough guy publicly but its controlled opposition. They're all in lock step and none of them oppose the president.

Chuck Schumer and his band of cowardly cavers threw up a brick wall in front of our momentum and screwed the midterms. Morons can’t read the room. Just go join MAGA. How are you any different? Bowing to a criminal! Ridiculous! These losers won’t want to release the Epstein files either.

Here...they are: 1. Catherine Cortez Masto (D–Nevada) 2. Jacky Rosen (D–Nevada) 3. John Fetterman (D–Pennsylvania) 4. Dick Durbin (D–Illinois) 5. Tim Kaine (D–Virginia) 6. Maggie Hassan (D–New Hampshire) 7. Jeanne Shaheen (D–New Hampshire) 8. Angus King (I–Maine, caucuses with Democrats)

Dems have spent the past two months saying they're fighting to address the crisis of spiking healthcare costs and now they're caving for a deal that does nothing to address healthcare costs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is a bad deal, and the old way of doing things is clearly not working. We need new leaders in the Senate.

In a normal democracy, a total collapse of party leadership would result in an no-confidence vote and immediate snap elections to find leaders who can lead

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

If Chuck Schumer was the coach of an NFL team and got these kinds of results he wound have been fired and thrown out on his ass a long time ago.

GenAI disclaimer: the artists we stole music from in order to create this program spent 10-20 years studying and perfecting their craft before earning an average of $35 per hour as working musicians. Thank you for helping us to pillage this entire industry of creatives.

If the rest of the party doesn’t immediately move to remove Chuck Schumer as their leader than the whole party needs to be flipped. And the Democrats in the Senate that went along with this horrible fucking scheme need to be heckled every place they go until they flee the country and shame.

Chuck Schumer supported stripping people of healthcare, but not for the Democratic Candidate for NYC

Chuck Schumer is either allowing eight of his colleagues to be the sin eaters who take the blame for passing this shutdown deal, or he’s genuinely powerless to hold his conference together. Either way, he should be out of leadership tomorrow morning.

Chuck Schumer has failed us.

The centrists in the Senate Democratic caucus saw that the country was rallying to the party in the 2025 elections and resolved that they would do anything they could to kill that momentum.

Call a Senator that voted no tonight and demand that they vote to remove Chuck Schumer as Senate Minority Leader. He has weaponized his incompetence against the American people by allowing 8 Dem Senators to cave to an authoritarian regime. We need real leadership, not the oligarchy’s lapdog

In the first Trump term GOP Senator John McCain saved the ACA with a "thumbs down" while dying of cancer. These Democrats need to be permanently known as those that are killing the ACA. Trump will be crowing about his win after this because of those spineless Democrats.

We are being led by absolute cowards

80% of Democratic voters want a new leader in the Senate. Does that matter at all to Democratic senators?

Tonight was a very bad night.
