How many of his cronies bought Chevron stock on Friday?

We need to be honest with ourselves and our leaders about Venezuela We are a rogue state, a global pariah Trump is ruling as a dictator, period An axis of evil wants to carve up small, resource-rich nations The message for 2026 is clear: No kings! My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/trum...

NYT: The death toll for the US attack on Venezuela has risen to 80, including civilians and members of security forces, and could rise further.

Despite a statutory deadline requiring all of the files to be released by Dec. 19, 5.2 million documents remain to be reviewed and disclosed. It’s likely that the final public release will not occur until the end of February — one full year after Pam Bondi ordered the release of the records.

In authoritarian regimes, underlings signal loyalty to the ruler by publicly attesting to obviously false claims

I remember an off the record call with Biden’s DOS right as Maduro got “re-elected”.. they clearly stated that US will not be recognizing the results as these have been fabricated. They recognized Gonzales as winner. To a Q on what else US could do, they said: anything but diplomacy would be illegal

For those justifying everything saying it’s ok against a regime that authoritarian, answer what is your regime at the moment? If it is a pure democracy, proceed to step number two - the UN Charter.

So cue in Machado at the conference at MAL.. I still have questions about: - Chinese envoy - Russian military cargo planes arriving in Caracas days prior

Some updates: CNN: The Senate Armed Services Committee was not informed in advance of any potential US military action carried out tonight in Venezuela.

Kidnapping the leader of a foreign state without any declaration of war and announcing it via social media is full-on rogue state stuff. From the world’s number one superpower.

Being targeted by sophisticated spyware is relatively rare, but experts say that everyone needs to stay vigilant as this dangerous malware continues to proliferate worldwide. www.wired.com/story/how-to...

Calling out enemy #1 is now a fireable offense in this administration.

2026 is barely 48 hours old Is he about to start WWIII?? The Epstein files are what must be “really hot”..

The War President begins 2026 as he means to carry on.

Cleaning out some old stuff and found these. What a gut punch. We were so close. The hope going into 2009 and the dream of universal healthcare possibly becoming a reality in the summer of 2009. We didn't get there, but we can't stop trying. #hope #FightFascism #universalhealthcare #Obama #dreambig

Timezones are so weird. Australia is in 2026, Canada is in 2025, and the United States is in 1939.

The largest generation in U.S. history is in their 70s now. And Stephen Miller’s podcaster wife thinks it’s suspicious that there’s a huge surge in home health aides.

The paragraph abt saving the center from demolition is concerning bcuz this admin telegraphs their nxt violation. Remember the ballroom wasn't going to affect the East Wing? tRump will have a hissy fit & will tear dwn the Kennedy cntr, then rebuild as just the TRUMP Center. Mark this post. 😉 😒 #ETTD

DOGE was A LOT less likely to cancel contracts from companies that donated money to Republicans than companies that donated to Democrats.

Wow! Sad but true. The USA will stand alone in this world, and not in a good way. Everything tRump touches dies. #ETTD

A majority of Americans are fearful of the rapid growth of AI and want to tax the obscene wealth of its billionaires. Yet neither political party cares much about the will of the people. Money talks. Democracy walks We need an anti-AI party. My final 2025 column www.inquirer.com/columnists/a...

And then when you crash there's a good chance you'll be locked inside and burn alive. 👀 I refuse Ubers that are Teslas for a reason.

It begins.

Russia committed many acts of war and terrorism against the U.S., even putting bounties on American heads. Trump defended Putin and made it easier for him to attack us. Now our security strategy aligns with our enemy. Let that sink in. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Why it matters that Admiral Bradley carried it Hegseth's order to kill survivors? It means he broke his oath & KNEW it was a war crime. Yet, he did it! How many in cmnd are willing to take illegal cmnds? Control of the military is req'd to overtake a govt. We may be there already. We may be lost.

WTH?!?!

Musk bought his way into the administration. Through DOGE, he fired ALL of the Inspector Generals that had open investigations into his companies and crippled the others where reviews may have been teed up. Then, poof, he's gone from government. Overt corruption from our billionaire class.

You're not seeing the defense and international conflict experts disagreeing because if the facts are true, it's one of the most basic things in the law of armed conflict: You cannot kill people who are "hors de combat," taken out of the game by injury or attack. This is Geneva 101 stuff.

The Kremlin’s primary goal is the regime’s survival, not Russian national security. To secure its grip on power, Russia has adopted Shadow Warfare, using sabotage, covert influence, and violence to achieve its political and military goals. cepa.org/comprehensiv...

Trump manufactured a crime wave, deployed the National Guard, two got shot, and it’s somehow Biden’s fault.

#ETTD Walmart’s new report shows the economy is in worse shape than many thought www.msn.com/en-us/money/... #SheSHed

New Justice Department filings reveal that it was Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem who chose to defy a federal court order by transferring more than 100 Venezuelan men into Salvadoran custody to be imprisoned.

MTG was sworn in Jan. 3, 2021. She will resign Jan. 5, 2026. Five years. The vesting requirement for a member of Congress to become entitled to a pension benefit is five years. Same with lifetime federal health benefits. That's the real reason she's leaving. #grift

Dems run away from 'socialism' now the way Dems ran away from 'liberal' decades ago. It's a dumb look that plays into the hands of conservatives every time.

President Zelenskyy came to the White House, looking for help from his longstanding ally. He was ambushed, humiliated and berated for not being grateful enough. Prince Bone Saw bin 9/11 came to the White House, for the first time since he ordered the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. He was revered.

I deleted a post about the Jane Doe who filed rape charges against tRump and later dropped charges, then disappeared. Too many connections to producers of the Jerry Springer show to feel comfortable about the veracity of the charges. Simply unknown. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Jamal Khashoggi. Say his name.

Good Morning Everyone Today is their day Today I think of them WE BELIEVE YOU Let Justice Begin #EpsteinFiles

Every outlet worth a damn should be calling this out. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...
