In a surprising twist, the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent decision to let Texas use its mid-decade gerrymander for the 2026 midterm elections may end up strengthening California’s defense of its voter-approved map. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Yikes — This new Orwellian Pentagon propaganda video touting “transparency” as they fill the *press corps* with loyalists like Loomer & Gaetz plays like a horror film. We are very far off the cliff, folks. 🇺🇸

CNN: “During interviews with the FBI, the suspect arrested in the pipe bomb probe told investigators that he believed the 2020 election was stolen, providing perhaps the first indication of a possible motive…” www.cnn.com/2025/12/05/p...

Ohhh— so this is why Trump is being so nice to her. She’s going to help cover-up the Epstein files. Sickening that the accomplice’s rights would be given priority over the victims. #TrumpEpsteinCoverUp www.lbc.co.uk/article/ghis...

WATCH: Trump knows he can’t really win a Nobel Peace Prize so he just had FIFA give him a made up award. Sad.

This gangster government steals everyone’s property and doesn’t care about the laws respecting the rights of creators. Everything they see belongs to them like the greedy leeches on this country that they are.

These Karoline Leavitt "press conferences" are completely worthless propaganda full of shameless lies. They should be ignored by the media and all of us.

"I chose a crass serial rapist and adulterer, who calls women 'nasty' and 'piggy,' and took away by daughters' reproductive rights, over my daughters. So why are they displeased with me??? It must be all THEIR fault! I take no responsibility. NONE!"

According to the US Coast Guard, the year prior to Trump changing our policy to summary execution, only 21% of the vessels interdicted by them off the coast of Venezuela suspected of trafficking drugs had drugs on board. The other 79% had nothing. But now we just kill them all.

If your doctor decided you needed an MRI (indicating concern about something serious) and you claim that you didn't ask why or what part of your body he wanted to look at, you are: 1. Really stupid; or 2. Dangerously detached from reality; or 4. Lying; or 4. All three. 🎯

Mike Johnson suffers from a sensory deprivation condition common among Republicans: He can't see or hear anything inconvenient.

MAGA isn't distinguished by differences of opinion, it is marked by its cruelty.

Loser Mike Johnson is pissed that we’re gaining ground in forcing a vote on extending ACA tax credits. So let’s get even louder:

Hegseth’s name card says “SSECRETARY OF WAR.” (sic) Either more of that egregious White House incompetence or just openly flaunting the whole SS thing now. Or both maybe.

Every time he brags about that cognitive test, I’m reminded it’s the one where you have to identify a picture of a lion. The fact that he thinks it’s an achievement might actually be the test.

America wants to see the proof that these people were running drugs and we want to know why death was the sentence with no trial.

"We've had lies and stonewalls before. One’s tempted to say first time tragedy, this time farce. But war crimes aren’t a farce. Congress should investigate them. And a broader war—unjustified, unauthorized, unlawful—wouldn’t be a farce. Congress should stop it." www.thebulwark.com/p/lies-cover...

A most important question on the Sept. 2 double-tap strike is who had "target engagement authority" (TEA). Wall Street Journal: "A Defense Department official ... said Hegseth was the 'target engagement authority,' the key figure who authorized the strike." www.wsj.com/politics/whi...

The same people who i used to fight with in the GOP, who wanted to withdraw American troops from everywhere, are now the ones justifying the murder of two survivors. It’s almost like…. It was never about that

In case you needed even more motivation to vote in the Midterm elections... #AccountabilityIsComing

This World AIDS Day, we remember the hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers lost to HIV and AIDS, and those living with HIV today. We must remind ourselves and each other that the fight isn’t over until the epidemic is over for everyone.

Service members are furious. Trump and Hegseth are trying to throw under the bus to take fall for Hegseth’s alleged war crime. Some service members are considering leaving because they feel Hegseth is scapegoating admiral and troops by saying Admiral Bradley is person who gave order.

If Admiral Bradley didn’t realize before that these cowards were setting him up to take the fall, he knows it now. Time to hire a good lawyer.

Costco has filed a lawsuit against the Trump admin seeking a refund on the money paid by Costco due to tariffs. I want one too.

Hegseth is deflecting blame for the lethal strikes on an alleged drug boat in the Caribbean earlier this year.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

The Trump regime granted asylum to the alleged DC shooter in April. Kristi Noem lies that the Biden administration did not vet him. But if that were true, why didn't the Trump regime vet him? Is Noem saying they trusted Biden, whom they blame for everything bad that's happened since Trump took over?

Government actors who refuse to be bound by the rule of law are not morally entitled to its protection.

Dictators need war to stay in power.

Hang on, a pause is by definition temporary. Permanent is the opposite of temporary. “Permanent pause” is an oxymoron, a contradiction. If you want to be president of the US, don’t you think you should learn English, @realDonaldTrump ?

Mike Johnson, whose claim to fame is a ridiculous selfie with Kid Rock, is furious that we’re pushing to force a vote on extending tax credits. You know what to do:

"My poll numbers have never been better."

POLITICO: “Israeli soldiers on Thursday appeared to kill a pair of Palestinian men in the occupied West Bank after they had surrendered to troops, drawing Palestinian accusations that the men were executed “in cold blood.”“ www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

Even now, thinking about himself

“Was he granted asylum under your administration?” (Answer: Yes)

In the richest city in the richest country on the planet, the thing we can’t afford is to forget those who are left hungry.

So, Republicans want to get rid of Muslims and immigrants, but Trump and Republicans also want to take Saudi and Qatari money and are fine with selling American property and businesses to Gulf Muslims. Cool, got it.

20 year-old National Guard member Sarah Beckstrom has died from her gunshot wounds. May she rest in peace.

X’s new country labels blew up the right: groypers in New Zealand, “alpha male” accounts in India, and MAGA influencers realizing their biggest hype-men aren’t even American. @samsteindc.bsky.social and @willsommer.bsky.social explain why the algorithm now feels like a global troll farm.

Senile Satan, Con Junior and Fredo announced their phone in June, promising delivery in August to commemorate a decade since Satan came down the escalator. Not one phone has been delivered and good luck getting a refund. They took 590,000 deposits totaling $59 million.

So the US was aware that the world thought the document was US endorsed, yet waited until now to clarify that it wasn't? How could the US have communicated to Ukraine that they had to accept the proposal or lose US support without clarifying that the Russian proposal wasn't actually their proposal?

A real President ………. Sixty-two years ago today, November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas. He was shot while riding in an open-top car and died later at Parkland Hospital. The event, which occurred at 12:30 p.m. CST, was a moment of national tragedy.

Interesting. Ghislaine Maxwell's lawyers says she will plead the fifth if forced to testify to Congress. But she willingly sat down with Todd Blanche? What a load of horseshit. www.politico.com/live-updates...

The writers have done a spectacular job this season revamping their fascinating "Marjorie Taylor Greene" character. The suspense over what she will do next is compelling. A lot of things are going on with MTG, maybe some good, others bad, and we won't know exactly what for two or more seasons.

These posters started popping up ahead of next week’s We Ain’t Buying It boycott. From Nov 27 - Dec 1, folks are stepping back from corporate chains like Target, Home Depot, and Amazon. People are done being squeezed, so they are using the leverage of their wallets 💥

Trump isn’t putting America first — he’s praising a regime that murders its own people while attacking the reporters who dare to ask why. This is corruption in plain sight.

Saw the news on my lunch break while teaching. Trump calling for the hanging of Democratic lawmakers is not “just words.” It’s a line crossed again. Had to write something. ✊🏼
