ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries. Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves. "Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks. "No, guess he should've complied," agent says. Yakima, Washington

Mom got me the snow boots and electric kettle I wanted. 🥰She got M the portable puzzle table and puzzle I put on his list. He’s excited to do the puzzle he got from her for Christmas a few years back. We didn’t have a place to do puzzles really before this table. #SmallHouseProblems

A timeless reminder that music can change the world.🌎 #WeAreTheWorld #BehindTheScenes Story in comments

On this day, while eating great food and sharing presents, please don’t forget the reason for the season. Peace between Snoopy and The Red Baron.

After spending months making typical billionaire posts about how we shouldn’t have popular things that would make the American Dream a little bit less of a lie, the billionaire has decided he has more fun with Nazis.

BREAKING: Federal judge in Pittsburgh blocks DOJ's invasive trans care subpoena. The latest loss for DOJ, regarding the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center's patients, also brings news that DOJ has started scaling back its requests following its many losses. New, at Law Dork:

Merry Christmas, yall <3

Israeli forces breach Gaza ceasefire, killing a Palestinian and wounding six, including a child, in multiple attacks.

I started doing this work when I was 16 years old. Next week, I turn 24 — and I'm trying to raise $24,000 to persuade and mobilize young voters in support of key House Democratic candidate. Can you chip in $24 to help me get this done? secure.actblue.com/donate/vot-s...

The president was accused of multiple rapes of 14 year old girls as well as multiple murders of their babies and we’re all just acting like it doesn’t matter because CBS and CNN haven’t weighed in yet.

Folks, there’s no reason to be shocked that our government failed at redacting the Epstein files. Ever seen the movie Hidden Figures? They’ve always been bad at redactions.

A few months ago, we bought the cats a ball with a fake mouse inside that squeaks when you push it. They ignore it and it gets under foot, so I threw it away today. Now, every time I throw something away the trashcan squeaks. 😂

Bellingcat’s work in 2025 verified war crimes, exposed deepfake abuse, and challenged disinformation. We want to uncover wrongdoing. We can with your support: www.bellingcat.com/donate This is how we cut through the digital noise to tell stories that matter.

Reminder👇🏼

All CECOT stories in the past few hours removed from Reddit (r/politics) for being "off-topic". "All submissions to r/politics need to be explicitly about current US politics." Reddit is being actively censored.

I said awhile ago that it strongly seemed like the Adams admin gave press cards to all the far-right nutjobs to weaken the efficacy of them to justify revoking cards for indies like me. Wouldn’t ya know,

New rule: Anyone who feels the need to condescendingly explain a situation I made a joke about gets blocked.

Jacob Bard, a father of a student at Kentucky State University, was forced to use deadly force to protect himself, his son, and his wife when KSU & KSU police declined to protect them from a violent mob. A grand jury declined to indict because it was self defense. www.upi.com/Top_News/US/...

Today, the filters for the cats’ water fountain will be here, and then the house will be 100% back to normal. Only with better heat.

Someone just hit a $10,000 half court shot during a timeout at the Thunder-Spurs game, genuinely one of the most exciting things in sports #NBAsky

So everyone's watching the 60 Minutes that was supposed to be banned and everyone who knows how PDFs work can unredact the Epstein files, it's like the Christmas spirit has irony poisoning this year

FedEx driver just almost ran into us head on. Why is it always FedEx?

yeah I mean it’s genuinely sad that the “reasonable old school” Republican (who Dems eagerly and unanimously voted to confirm) is out here doing pressers blatantly geeked out coke and it’s not subtle

Oh, look. Two new presents under the tree. I wonder what they could be? Lol

You see what I have to put up with?!

I just told @mindcryme.bsky.social that I was going to roll our pajamas. 😅

I wish the lead singer of Iced Earth hadn’t turned out to be such a horrible person. I miss wearing my succubus shirt. Bleh.

That mouse made a fool of the cats last night. Both of them were intently searching behind the litter box while the mouse sat comfortably on the back of the poop scoop and watched. 😹

We’re gonna have to get some sort of plugs for the vents. The freezing air from the basement is coming up through them.

The heat pump is situated so that it blows heat directly into the bedroom, which is new. We had to depend on the ambient temp going up bc there’s no vent in the bedroom. We might not need all these extra blankets anymore. Lol

Annnnd the cats caught a mouse. That was fun. Lol

So they’re actually finished now. We used to keep our furnace on 70-73 just to get it warm in here. These are on 65 and I need to put on a lighter shirt.

I knew there was a reason I never liked Nicki Minaj.

Narrator: They were not, in fact, almost finished.

James Talarico exposes GOP private school voucher scam: “Elon Musk is a Texas resident and is eligible for these funds. He has 8 children. That's $2 million in funds for Elon Musk. You're taking tax dollars of plumbers and nurses to subsidize families who already have kids at private schools."

Mom got us the matching jammies I wanted! Shh. Don’t tell her I opened them. I’m gonna wash them and wrap them and put them under the tree to open (and wear) on Christmas Eve.

How come whenever straight white people start whining about “purity tests,” the first thing they’re willing to compromise on is minority rights?

"You can’t hold power accountable if the people who sign your checks need favors from that power. You can’t tell the truth if telling the truth is bad for business." If you are going to read one thing on Bari Weiss & 60 Mins, make it this one from @parkermolloy.com

People often ask why Democrats don’t have something like TurningPoint USA — so before the year ends, let me introduce you to Voters of Tomorrow. We’re on campuses across the country, organizing over 10,000 Gen Z members to engage our generation. 🧵THREAD

ICE is obstructing criminal prosecution of sex crimes against children

I truly don’t know where bsky got the idea that I’m into furry porn/art, but I am not, and it would be cool if it would stop serving it to me so I can stop muting people for posting art.

We don't even need to refute the Founders of the United States' iniquities or those pre-Nat Turner enslavers in the early Republic. Our ancestors Benjamin Banneker and David Walker did it quite nicely as their direct contemporaries.

I forgot to unlock the back door this morning, so for the first hour, they were just going in and out of the crawl space instead of asking me to unlock it lol

😂

The heater guys gave us coffee. The heater company has its own coffee. This is a bag of heater company coffee. In keeping with the grasshopper theme, it’s called “Hop To It”. I’m excited to try it.

My social battery just went hard red. I’m so glad they’re almost finished.
