Donald Trump is facing increasing sniping from members of his own party that he is ignoring the mood of the country when it comes to the economy and voters turn on him.

So did the GOB coaches desire to keep Alabama in regardless of three losses. SEC protects their own. And Miami did not have a great year in their conference. It should be a good bowl season though. Georgia, OSU and Indiana are really high Quality. Not yet sold on T Tech but they sure hammered BYU

Not necessarily. ( ask Duke). I do think they scheduled too many cream puffs but the Big conference teams are similarly guilty. Big mistake to play Miami and A and M first though. The conferences load up on softies early. But ND beat a lot of ranked teams.

In Los Angeles, California, a man’s father was abducted and kidnapped by ICE. While attempting to locate him using a GPS tracker in his car, they discovered that his stolen truck was being driven around by an ICE Bounty Hunter during his off-duty period from December 2nd to December 3rd.

In a small Kentucky town, long lines at the food bank have been reported, with residents claiming that up to 10% of the population is waiting for assistance.

REPORTER: Could you imagine receiving a Kennedy Center honor next year? TRUMP: Yeah, I think I'm going to nominate myself for next year

Imagine being Ukraine, and having to depend on these two shysters to have your best interests at heart.

UPDATE: Another Chicago-area church has put up an immigration-themed Nativity scene. A church member at Urban Village Church sent this one along, where Mary, Joseph and Jesus are gone and replaced with a sign that reads: “Due to ICE activity in our community, the Holy Family is in hiding.”

A new HBO documentary chronicles life after the overturning of Roe v. Wade. @soledadobrien.bsky.social, executive producer of "The Devil is Busy," joins me at noon EST with an inside look at the grim realities healthcare providers and their patients face in a post-Roe world. #Velshi

Keep your momentum going and build on it for 2026. bsky.app/profile/afty...

Notre Dame, which got screwed by the Good Ole Boy coach network, has decided not to play in any Bowls this year. The GOB network will probably try to punish them, but ND is doing what’s right. They got screwed not just by the GOB’s but by their own schedule which is set years in advance.

Time for the Europeans to stop dilly dallying. The American alliance is dead, killed by Trump and the pro Putin far right. You are on your own and if you don’t step up quickly in Ukraine it is your own goose you are cooking, not just Ukraine’s.

It's almost like they're a bunch of corrupt Russian traitors.

This year, Alabama, a three loss team was the beneficiary of the GOB network. They really should have a neutral selection committee, but I don’t think they ever will. at least none of the really good teams got excluded this year. Too bad. This year was a great year for college football on the field

No matter what College football does, they always leave a bad taste in my mouth at bowl time. It seems like the good ole boys always have their fingers in the process. This process is better than the old one when Florida State was excluded because the GOB’s from the SEC and the Big ten wanted it

Every right-wing oligarch, podcaster, hack, Russian apologist, paid influencer, and bot has been activated in a coordinated manner to attack Europe after the EU fined Musk.

Melissa Corrigan and David Shuster uncovered documents proving the U.S. Navy ordered sailors to delete photo and video evidence after their own ship was bombed by U.S. forces. That’s not a story, that’s a five-alarm scandal — and it’s the first of many we’re going to drag into the light.

As a physician I have to say I am a bit skeptical about this analysis, although I admit it’s not impossible. Trumps father lived into his 90’s and did have severe dementia but that doesn’t prove Trump does. As for the lies and making stuff up, Trumps always been doing that. Time will tell.

This, from the prime minister of Poland. Why? Because Trump is letting Russia conquer Ukraine and Poland may be next. Americans must realize that if Ukraine (a democracy) falls, the balance of world power will tip -- and the U.S. will be weaker -- as Russia is emboldened to invade more countries.

A man set a stranger on fire ... and a U.S. magistrate judge decided to release him to home confinement, before a higher judge stepped in and detained him as a danger to society. This is the type of insanity I often dealt with as a federal prosecutor. It was unnerving. www.cnn.com/2025/12/06/u...

Stephen Miller has six figure investments in the private for-profit detention industry. Pam Bondi is a former lobbyist for the private for-profit detention industry. Follow the money. www.opensecrets.org/news/2025/04...

In 2002, Trump, former owner of Miss Teen USA made a remarkable comment about Epstein to a journalist, “I’ve known Jeff for 15 years”…calling him a “terrific guy” and adding that he “likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.”

Trump is mad one person stepped out of line on Fox and told the truth.

Siccing dogs on people is a slave tracker thing, a Bull Connor thing, a police brutality thing, a jackboot thug thing, an evil abuse of both dog and man which only a fully corrupted spirit could enact.

I woke up this morning to see that many states across the country have decided to #REJECT the decision to scrap the #HBV vaccine birth dose by #ACIP. Here are some (alt-text included). But who will be left behind? 1/

"'Not a lot of Democrats have been willing to talk every day about what will happen if your state legislature isn’t permitted to protect your kids from AI or protect your job from AI,' said Sen. Murphy." ICYMI @lauren-egan.bsky.social on Dems and AI: lnk.thebulwark.com/48Q7j6Z

Bad framing: ACIP voted to scrap the universal hepatitis B vaccine recommendation for newborns. Accurate framing: Anti-vax conspiracy theorists appointed to ACIP by Robert Kennedy Jr., who made a fortune as an anti-vax profiteer, voted to expose babies to a preventable, incurable, deadly illness.

4/ GOP Chair Wicker and Ranking Member Reed, Senate Armed Services, "requested copies of the execute orders related to the strikes in September, without success. ... Bradley supported sharing the materials when asked by lawmakers Thursday but noted that he alone was not authorized to release them."

If the FDA has proof that vaccines killed children, it needs to release that evidence immediately.

NEW ORLEANS OFFICIALS: “We insist (Trump’s ICE goons) clearly ID themselves… there is no precedent for masked law enforcement… they have ZERO ACCOUNTABILITY… citizens are being racially profiled, chased, hunted… the chaos and lack of professionalism is ALARMING…”

For the first 11 months of 2025, U.S. employers have cut over 1.1 million jobs, the highest level since the pandemic upheaval of 2020. According to Challenger, Gray & Christmas, this represents a 54% increase compared with the same period last year.

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

WOW! AN HONOR! — GCN

Well, at least Trump is totally open about being an unprincipled racist. So many in his party are racists but pretend otherwise.

Cotton wants to be President one day. I think after four years of Trump, the USA will want a President who tells the truth. So Cotton will be disqualified.

I hate to be this crass but Reid is a Democrat. The Ellisons are Trumpists. One of them will control Warner.
