Rand Paul tells me that he wants the full video of the Venezuelan boat strike released. “And I think if the public sees images of people clinging to boat debris and being blown up, I think that there is a chance that finally, the public will get interested enough in this to stop this.”

These 2 headlines sum up the last year.

The whole play of Trumpism: convincing working class people to blame other working class people—so billionaires can keep robbing us all.

NEWS: U.S. companies have announced over 1.1 million layoffs in 2025, the highest total since the pandemic-hit year of 2020, according to a report from Challenger, Gray & Christmas

This prick ripped off regular Americans, he stole millions from middle class/working class folks. And Trump pardons him. Don’t ever again tell me Trump gives a flying fuck about middle class folks. He never has.

BREAKING: ADP says private-sector payrolls fell by 32,000 in November, with small businesses taking most of the hit. This is NOT what a “Golden age” looks like.

Did you know Trump has added 2.2 trillion to the national debt since taking office 10 months ago?

“.. Every consumer sentiment gauge is saying the same thing .. “.. the middle class is feeling squeezed. .. Lower-income households are basically in a recession. “.. It's hard to get a job .. The cost of living is up .. Real incomes are trending down ..” - @byheatherlong.bsky.social

If only Donald Trump could read: “OUR AMERICAN CODE OF MILITARY OBEDIENCE REQUIRES THAT, SHOULD ORDERS AND THE LAW EVER CONFLICT, OUR OFFICERS MUST OBEY THE LAW.”

JPMORGAN: Our macro conference “emphasized mounting dissent to Trump’s influence and pointed to the possibility that he could enter lame duck status in 2026.”

BREAKING: A federal judge has thrown out the criminal indictment of James Comey, ruling that Trump-installed prosecutor Lindsey Halligan was illegally appointed and had no lawful authority to bring the case. The court found her actions violated federal law and the Constitution’s Appointments Clause.

They lied about it. All of it. A thug cop shot an unarmed woman five times without justification, boasted about it to his colleagues, and then this administration tried cover it all up by arresting her and charging her with felonies.

Good. Dems not backing down in the slightest in the face of Trump's call for their execution. Keep this up, Dems. Treat Trump like *he's* the violent criminal and the real threat to our Constitution order. Because he is.

Trump is absolutely cratering on economy in new Marquette poll: Overall econ approval: 36-64 On tariffs: 37-63 On inflation/cost of living: 28-72 (!!!) "We’re looking at a really grim downward spiral for Trump," says @timothynoah.bsky.social. All on the pod: newrepublic.com/article/2034...

Corruption at every level of government. Inconvenient truths are eradicated.

“.. At an excruciatingly awkward hearing in Federal District Court in Alexandria, Va., ..” @nytimes.com @jamescomey.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/11/19/u...

🚨BREAKING: Federal prosecutors admitted Wednesday that the grand jury handling the criminal case against former FBI Director James Comey never reviewed or voted on the final indictment used to charge him — a virtually unprecedented revelation that could topple the entire case.

This is a pedophilephile administration with a predator at the top.

This is a better answer than I gave on The Source to @kaitlancollins.bsky.social last night.

Mike Johnson is a liar, fraud, and fake Christian who has held leadership positions in multiple organizations that have covered up sex abuse.

Now I know he is guilty. Every accusation is a confession. Also Pam Bondi will be going to jail after all this is over. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/14/u...

From Christopher Hale: “Pope Leo XIV will share a meal this Sunday with Alessia Nobile and four fellow transgender Catholic activists, during the Vatican’s Jubilee of the Poor — marking the most significant public encounter shared between the pope and the trans community.”

BREAKING: Twenty-four survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s crimes have issued an emotional and urgent appeal to the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives, demanding that Congress vote to release the long-awaited Epstein files. meidasnews.com/news/survivo...

Man, look: The regularity with which Trump defends his relationship with Epstein by noting that he never went to Epstein's island makes me think 1) that the island is where the really heinous shit went down and 2) that Trump knows that very, very well.

Through every shutdown in history, the government has still provided economic data to the American people. They aren’t doing it this time because the numbers are fucking terrible.

These Epstein emails make at least one thing abundantly clear: The rumors that Trump “kicked Epstein out of Mar a Lago and cut ties with him” were bullshit.

Blanche didn’t ask Maxwell a single question about any of these emails. Then he moved her to Club Fed where she is served individual meals and has a puppy and numerous other special privileges while she prepares her clemency petition. WHY?

Thomas Massie to CNN on the Epstein files: "This vote is gonna be on your record for longer than Trump is gonna be president. And what are you gonna do in 2028 and 2030 when you're in a debate … and they say, 'How can we trust you? You covered up for a pedophile back in 2025.'"

On Dec. 8, 2015, Jeffrey Epstein offers a NY Times reporter photos of Donald Trump and "girls in bikinis in my kitchen." Epstein tells the reporter that he "gave" Trump his "20 year old girlfriend...after two years." When people looked into these type of rumors the Times smugly criticized them.

🔥 “I’ve never seen this level of grift” @RepMcGovern on the @MarshaBlackburn & @SenatorHagerty self-dealing money grab, giving themselves MILLIONS for being investigated in connection with Trump’s attempt to undo our democracy.

The fact that Trump is calling Mace and Boebert today pleading with them to remove their names from the Epstein petition at the last minute tells you everything you need to know about how incriminating the info in the files is to him and his cronies.

McGovern: Buried in this bill is a corrupt kickback for eight Republican senators, a million dollar payday funded by taxpayers, taken from the treasury and deposited directly into their pockets. What the hell is wrong with this place?

The panicked arm-twisting begins to avoid that discharge petition. 🤡 @cnn.com #CO04 #Panican www.cnn.com/2025/11/12/p...

Ghislaine Maxwell lied about Trump never going to Epstein's house (directly contradicted by her email correspondence with Epstein), and she was rewarded for that lie with a transfer to a cushier prison. The coverup is happening in plain sight.

I'm old enough to remember one month ago when Comerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said that the powerful men who spent time with Epstein didn't just know about the child sex trafficking, but they "participated." www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFg8...

🚨BREAKING: Oversight Dems have received new emails from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate that raise serious questions about Donald Trump and his knowledge of Epstein’s horrific crimes. Read them for yourself. It’s time to end this cover-up and RELEASE THE FILES.

A direct email exchange from 2011 between Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, just released by House Oversight Committee Democrats.

the republican party is engaged in a cover up to keep the american people from learning whether president trump is president pedo

Whoaaaaa

McGovern: You don't even have a health care plan. You been promising one for over a decade and we've never seen it, because it doesn't exist.

HASSETT: We're comfortable that inflation has come way down QUINTANILLA: Even though it's been increasing for 5 straight months? HASSETT: Well I guess there's ups and downs and seasonals

White House officials say the boss is really stupid and you have to watch what you say to him

I can't tell you how many interviews I've done where I've been asked: If Trump's policies are so problematic, why are U.S. stocks rising so rapidly. A bit of international context illustrates the real issue here. U.S. stocks have dramatically underperformed other advanced economies.
