James 2:17

TAPPER: “This is one of the documents Trump’s DOJ released. It’s 100 pages. ALL BLACK. That’s the ‘transparency’ we’re getting.” #TrumpEpsteinCoverup

😕🇺🇸

Did Trump’s DOJ really think dropping hundreds of blacked-out pages counted as complying with the law? I know it’s a bunch of unqualified folks with no backbone over there, but this is next-level.

I've been waiting to find out exactly how Trump was going to personally profit from the AI greed frenzy he has unleashed because there was no way he was *not* going to get a piece. Now we know: a $6-billion merger of his failing media corp with an AI energy corp www.aljazeera.com/economy/2025...

Trump's opening words, "11 MONTHS AGO, I INHERITED A MESS" was perhaps the biggest lie of his entire angry Miller-written speech. Taco Don inherited a booming economy from Biden, & so far, he's driven it into the ground. Let's hope MAGATs can separate the salesman from the product.

Like some wannabe Temu cowboy. Good riddance. 😠

This is illegal - directly violating the law - and every available civil and criminal law should be brought to bear on the people participating in this change.

Seriously. They're beyond focused. Obsessed. And, given the whole Epstein connection (the full breadth of which we still don't even know), it's beyond creepy and disturbing.

....erm, do they know something we don't know? 🤔 #funeralwake #allIwantforchristmas

I also have been assuming that the primary purpose of this conflict is domestic

I cannot emphasize how serious an assault on democracy this is. Any effort by the Trump administration to engage in false claims of fraud or mass voter suppression relies on this as a building block. As importantly, there is no legitimate reason DOJ would want this information.

“It was not unanimous. I was muted and not allowed to speak.” 🤔

So, he's paying their bonuses from...THEIR OWN MONEY?! 🤦‍♀️😡🫩

The Kennedy Center’s vice president of public relations said the renaming vote was unanimous. Yet Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio), an ex officio member of the board, said she was “muted on the call and not allowed to speak or voice my opposition.” https://wapo.st/4schjzl

Time to call your representatives and tell them to vote NO! 👇👇👇👇

In case laws still matter…

Yeah, okay Mr. Potter....you "warped, frustrated old man". 🙄

The first American known to undergo gender reassignment surgery did so in 1951. People with gender-crossing identities have existed in many cultures as far back as we can check—to antiquity. This is a campaign of hate against a vulnerable group. It’s dictatorshit. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christi...

All this will do is increase, dramatically, the suicide rate among trans kids. Societies should be judged by how well they take care of their most vulnerable members. The United States in 2025 continues to fail this test.

Yesterday I tried to predict what Trump would say in his address to the nation. Sounds like I got it mostly right, though I haven't watched it and I'm not gonna. youtu.be/jTk1p003JEc?...

Omg. I genuinely want someone to ask him this question. 🤭😏👩‍🍳💋 #FunnyNotFunny

I have sooooo many jokes!!! 🧵🧵🧵

Call your reps and tell them we don’t want to go to war with Venezuela!

Sen. BLUMENTHAL: Was the U.S. Capitol attacked on January 6, 2021? Trump nominee: *dodges* Trump nominee: *dodges* Trump nominee: Well, individuals entered the Capitol. Blumenthal: You are in fear—how will you have the courage to be fair and impartial?

🚨More chaos in the Republican-led House... Our discharge petition has the signatures to force the ACA extension to the floor. Speaker Johnson doesn't want to do it. The good news: Republicans are feeling the pressure. If you have a friend or relative in a red district, tell them to call their Rep!

JUST NOW…

"Scourge" seems too nice a descriptive, really....😡 Yeah, I want him traumatically affected the legal system. I want him to wake up in the morning and not want to go to work. He's a sadistic and fiendish villain.

F*cking ICE helicopters are back. Third flyover today. 🤬 #Chicago ##AbolishICE ##RemoveTrump

The New CBS.

To Trump, the holiday season means cruelty and intimidation. Along with their cameras, his agents are prowling our streets, ripping folks out of cars and terrorizing our neighbors with assault weapons. Using taxpayer dollars to create dystopian propaganda doesn't make us safer.

Heads up, #Chicago! The tiny Bovine (sic) is back, looking to ruin everyone's holidays. Makes the Grinch look like Mother Theresa. Mind your whistles and cameras and let's ensure everyone knows why he's only gonna get dirty coal in his soggy stocking. 🤬 #AbolishICE #RemoveTrump

Wtaf... 😳 🧵👇👇👇

Less than 48 hours after the deadly attack at Sydney's Bondi Beach that left more than a dozen dead, Australian authorities announced proposals for sweeping new gun laws. n.pr/48UTa7g

Wow — White House Chief of staff Susie Wiles did not hold back. 👀 Start the clock! ⏰ www.nytimes.com/2025/12/16/u...

One reason the GOP is repeatedly terrible at managing the economy is that they believe public sector jobs aren’t real jobs, & they demonize/defund the govt - at both the state & federal levels - every time they hold power. Only difference this time is how wildly illegally they’ve done it via DOGE.

This is Seth at his best youtu.be/CUW2GmKtqO0?...

It wasn't long ago that women were forced to have a male co-signer to get a credit card or a home loan. Now, the Trump administration wants to end protections against such discrimination. Take 45 seconds today to say "No way." nationalfairhousingalliance.salsalabs.org/ecoaregb/ind...

Use today to remember how incredible Rob Reiner was. Not to repeat what we already know about Trump.

Rob Reiner was a good guy. He made a lot of movies about good guys, in worlds where not everyone was good and you didn’t have to be good. He made movies about people trying. He was angry, as many hopeful people are. He knew the world could be better and he wanted it to be. His death is devastating.

I've seen this with my own eyes in Chicago, 'ordinary people with regular jobs' finding courage to resist.

🎯 CIVIL RIGHTS LAWYER @oliverma2026.bsky.social: “The detention centers are run by private prison companies (like @CoreCivic) — they make millions PER PERSON… that’s why they’re looking for anybody brown, so they can keep stealing from taxpayers.” *THIS IS NOT TALKED ABOUT ENOUGH*

WATCH — @sawyerhackett.bsky.social: "Trump has created more ‘illegal immigrants’ than he has deported… and 93% have no criminal record.“

Democrats should commit now to not recognizing any pardons issued in advance of charges. Tell Trump administration officials that preemptive pardons will not be honored by a future Democratic administration and that criminals will be arrested.

Every last one of these monsters must be brought to justice for their illegal actions. Reposting for legal documentation reach. #AbolishICE #RemoveTrump
