"While cleaning out their late mother's California loft last Christmas, three brothers made a life-changing discovery under a pile of faded newspapers: one of the first Superman comics ever made." It sold for $9.12m. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Years of loyalty count for exactly *nothing*. Eventually they all get thrown under the bus. They never learn. Oh well 🤷‍♂️ www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The partisan divide has grown, too. The wealthiest 100 tended to give more to Republicans than to Democrats before last year. But giving to the GOP spiked in 2024, with *84%* of donations going to back Republicans or conservative PACs.

Of course he backs it 🤦‍♂️ It reads like it was written by Putin. Russia concedes nothing, gets all the land it has taken (US naturally recognizing it as Russian), and there's just a worthless security guarantee. Russia can regroup and then take the rest later. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c6...

Donald is the one person on the planet who can commute her sentence or pardon her. Refuses to rule it out. Probably a coincidence.

Enten: "This is probably the worst 10 day period for the president in the polls his entire second term. The numbers are just atrocious ... when your best poll has you 14 points underwater, you know it's truly bad and it's as bad as 26 points underwater ... -43 with independents! They despise him."

More evidence that the Trump/Witkoff “peace plan” for Ukraine came straight from the Russians - it uses Russian syntax. www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

Jeez. Trump reposted a call to execute six Democratic members of Congress, and it’s not on the front page of the NY Times, and this is the headline—no mention of hanging lawmakers.

when you are getting fact-checked live on air by Jim freakin' Jordan, you might suck at your job as a TV host

Sounds like corporate media is doing its thing again "... engaged in a dialogue about possibly axing some of the CNN hosts whom Donald Trump is said to loathe, including Erin Burnett and Brianna Keilar, the people said." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Now that's a 2025 headline

Telling. But how exactly did *that* conversation begin?

SCOOP: A federal grand jury in Maryland is investigating whether FHFA director Bill Pulte and Justice Department prosecutor Ed Martin improperly appointed unauthorized people to help in mortgage fraud investigations of President Trump's critics. With @carolleonnig.bsky.social

Trump is absolutely cratering on economy in new Marquette poll: Overall econ approval: 36-64 On tariffs: 37-63 On inflation/cost of living: 28-72 (!!!) "We’re looking at a really grim downward spiral for Trump," says @timothynoah.bsky.social. All on the pod: newrepublic.com/article/2034...

Donald's doing it again.

If this isn’t 25th amendment territory nothing is.

The bottom has fallen out from under Trump Media & Technology Group The shares are down 76% since mid-January and 32% this month alone $DJT

If they did indeed say that (who knows by this point) I really hope he stays with them 🙂

I wonder why 🤔 How has this case not been dismissed already. Guess they have to go through the motions.

JUST IN: A federal appeals court panel (with 2/3 Trump appointees) calls his lawsuit against CNN — over use of the term Big Lie — "meritless" and affirms the decision by a lower court to throw it out. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

MARIST: new generic midterm ballot. @maristpoll.bsky.social maristpoll.marist.edu/polls/a-look...

"Mark Epstein has claimed that the files on his late brother, convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, are allegedly being edited to remove names of Republicans" 👀 That would explain the pivot 🤔 Donald could then say: told you all Democrats (the "hoax" bit all forgotten) people.com/epstein-s-br...

The crown prince saying he was going to invest a trillion dollars in the United States had the same energy as Mark Zuckerberg right before he got caught on a hot mic saying, “I didn’t know which number you wanted me to pick.”

Can confirm that Fox News totally ignored the press conference where Epstein survivors and lawmakers called for the release of the Epstein files. Last week, they ignored key revelations from the Epstein emails. These omissions depict a false reality to their viewers.

This story from @noturtlesoup17.bsky.social, captures how the impunity Jan6ers believe they had LED DIRECTLY to Andrew Paul Johnson sexually abusing young children. theintercept.com/2025/11/17/p...

I can usually translate him, but either I’m losing my mind, or he is.

A basket of fewer items ... costs less 🎉. Not the greatest boast. Plus he sounds even worse than usual.

"The Justice Department’s top ethics adviser claimed he was sacked because U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel wanted to hang on to lavish gifts that violated government ethical rules" Can see why Donald chose these guys. www.thedailybeast.com/doj-employee...

Trump is in the Oval Office right now calling the Epstein coverup a hoax again and refusing to admit he’s all over the files. A reporter had to ask him multiple times if he would sign the discharge petition, and he basically dodged the question. He's panicked.

What if he's been ordered to pay the money back by then? 🤔 The debt is rising by $1tn every 5 months or so. Guess adding another $600bn (assuming $2,000 * 300m) can't hurt.

The court issues a scathing ruling today in the Comey case. Judge William Fitzpatrick notes, among other things, that Lindsey Halligan made two false statements of the law when responding to questions by grand jurors. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

it's almost like tariffs increase prices

BREAKING: Magistrate orders DOJ to turn over grand jury materials to Comey, finding real prospect that "government misconduct" may have tainted the case.

"According to the U.S. flag code, the flag should never touch anything beneath it. That guidance ... reads: "The flag should never touch anything beneath it, such as the ground, the floor, water, or merchandise." 👀 Another one for the "If President Biden ... " list.

Instant pivot. Not like it's a co-equal branch, or something. Donald has spoken. They wouldn't have this problem if they had some principles and just did the right thing to begin with 🤷‍♂️

Well said, Mr. President.

White House aggressively posting “trump is straight” content amid the blow job e-mail

Let’s just be honest. Trump wouldn’t be acting this way - using all the power he has to suppress the Epstein files - if this wasn’t the biggest scandal in presidential history.

That's a no. However I would have responded with: "Donald *is* a lame duck president. So no, it's not about that." (I know, he's already got 2028 merch and he'll get the nomination etc. But it's still important not to normalise it)

it’s like bari weiss is feeding her questions through an earpiece

Normally the signature policy is clearly lawful so there is no need for them to get involved

🎯

Pam Bondi has posted rants and videos saying that there’ll be no mercy for those who threaten federal agents. But she and her boss just pardoned a woman who threatened to shoot federal agents. Why did this Florida woman get a pass? She’s MAGA. Trump doesn’t care about federal agents. Never did.

Here is Trump when he owned the Miss Universe and Miss Teen USA pageants bragging about how he “was able to get away with” going backstage when contestants were naked since he was the boss and he had to do “inspections.”

This is so so disturbing. Trump is now pardoning January 6th rioters for unrelated crimes, just to reward them for their violence to keep him in power. The Republican Party is in the full time business of endorsing and incentivizing political violence. So scary.

Amazing how racist goon squads can wake people up to danger, but it's unfortunate that everyone had to touch the hot stove to find out it was hot

I'd been meaning to check how well their respective coins are doing 📉

Classy. But I note: "A website that pays licensing fees to President Donald Trump". I'm not a lawyer, but based on that alone ... I'll guess they'll be just fine.
