Health care premiums are skyrocketing. Why? Because Republicans prioritized a massive tax break for billionaires over making health care more affordable for you.

Yesterday, Trump authorized NVIDIA to sell advanced chips tech directly to China, undermining our strategic advantage, after they gave money to his inauguration fund, ballroom & more. But this isn't the first time. Just last week, I called out a similar scheme Trump pulled with the UAE this summer.

MAJOR BREAKING: Eileen Higgins will win the Miami mayoral runoff election, becoming the first Democrat to serve as mayor of the city in nearly 30 years, Decision Desk HQ projects. The Republican candidate won the mayoral race in 2021 by 67 points.

There’s a clear pattern: Trump is turning the pardon power, which is meant for mercy, into rewards for the wealthy and well-connected, eroding trust in both the law and the presidency. Quid pro quo pardons are plain corruption.

Republicans just wrapped a meeting on healthcare and not even pretending to have a plan. They’re blaming Dems for the shutdown, as if that stopped them from doing the job. They were still getting paid, they could have been working the entire time. 15 years of whining about Obamacare—still nothing!

Donald Trump sees loyalty to anything but himself as the greatest sin you can commit. Well, my loyalty is to the Constitution, not to Donald Trump. I won’t back down from it.

After MTG lied about me for weeks, she said that she felt bad for my unborn child because he'd have me as a mother. Her rhetoric led to threats against my family. No one, even her, should receive threats like those, but I'd like to see her own up to the role she played in creating them for others.

Jessica: There are some key indicators that Trump and this administration knows this is going badly… We aren't getting the jobs numbers anymore, the GDP numbers or inflation numbers and we know, Donald Trump, if the number is remotely good or he can lie about it—he tells you what it is.

American families didn’t suddenly start “overspending.” Food prices are exploding while wages stay frozen. This isn’t bad luck. It’s policy. It’s corruption. It’s a system designed to fail the people who do the work. #TrumpInflationCrisis

Wow -- Russia reportedly plotted last year to plant bombs on US-bound flights (gift link) giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

Neither Netflix nor the Paramount/Trump/Saudi Arabia group should own Warner Bros. Both deals are absurd - terrible for consumers and democracy. This is a story about corruption - Trump using government power to screw consumers and gain control of the media. A red alert moment.

What’s happening at the Supreme Court this week is bigger than just one FTC commissioner. The majority seems ready to endorse the “unitary executive” theory, giving Trump the power to purge agency staffers and replace them with loyalists. It’s a frightening prospect we should be paying attention to.

"I like to pardon people I know nothing about."

1. "The Golden Age is here!" 2. "The Golden Age is coming soon!" 3. "The Golden Age is coming next year!"

Great. And what is the plan for the likely event that Trump, Rubio, Hegseth & their ilk first laugh loudly at Schumer and then continue to ignore him?

🇬🇧 MP Edward Davey: “Trump is distracting from his huge failings in 🇺🇸 where his poll ratings are plummeting… This President is no friend of ours.”

🇬🇧 @mrjamesob.bsky.social — “‘Europe is facing civilizational erasure’?? That’s the kind of bilge that made me realize the direction Twitter was going in when Elon bought it… now the idea we laughed at is driving foreign policy of the most powerful nation 🇺🇸. And they don’t believe it.” 😕

James Garfield was murdered by a man who thought he deserved a government job. Chester Arthur—once a machine politician—responded by helping create civil service reform. Today’s GOP wants to undo that progress and return to patronage politics. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

💯 this is ON Donnie TRUMP! He bypassed his GOP congress and tweeted out this nightmare!!! 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

Trump’s tariffs are hurting working people. They’ve made everything more expensive. It has resulted in the loss of American manufacturing jobs. A lose-lose.

Waste. Fraud. Abuse.

And even if you're right, the punishment for drug smuggling isn't death.

In Minnesota we’re cutting social security taxes, allowing Minnesotans to age in their homes, and investing in safe communities. That’s what makes us the second-best state to retire. Give us a few more days above 0° and we’ll knock Florida out of #1 😎 www.startribune.com/florida-rate...

Republicans had 15+ years to come up with a decent healthcare plan. It’s not coming. Don’t believe them.

In recent weeks, Trump has become increasingly agitated whenever reporters press him on statements he made that he now insists he can’t remember

Stephen Miller's agenda of cruelty and chaos is literally disappearing people. These are real families and real children torn apart. This is Donald Trump's reign of terror.

In 2016, Pete Hegseth said troops “won’t follow unlawful orders.” In 2024, Pam Bondi said, “Military officers are required not to carry out unlawful orders.” Now, they're singing a different tune to grovel to Donald Trump. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/08/u...

Dayum‼️ Safe to say Marjorie Taylor Greene’s divorce from Donald Trump is final. “After President Trump called me a traitor, I got a pipe bomb threat on my house.” “I stood for women who were raped when they were 14 years old. And the president that I fought for… called me a traitor for that.” 🧵

Trump’s stupid, unconstitutional tariffs. This is ALL on him. MAGA, MAGA.👇

Every Republican has learned to do just like Trump.👇

Will someone release the video so we can shut down these disgusting excuses?

Pictured (L-R): Sylvester Stallone, apparently stung by an entire beehive; Paul Stanley, revealing that the KISS makeup was load bearing; and Donald Trump, recently poisoned by the Joker

Rep. Omar is correct the Trump administration is a Nazi administration.

This dude is the walking-talking definition of a pretentious snob. He's the spoiled kid that used to wipe his nose on his fucking blazer while his maid drove him to the country club to pick on 7-year-old little girls.

MSNOW called out how completely out of touch Trump is on affordability. And Bissent is a terrible spokesperson to defend him on it.

This is the SAME clueless dipshit who said people wouldn’t miss getting a social security check- This is gaslighting 101!

Somali American U.S. citizen grabbed & detained by Trump’s ICE goons for 24 hours, “sexually assaulted her and said what could you be hiding under your hijab?”

Police Chief Brian O’Hara has delivered a blunt message to his department: If an officer witnesses ICE agents using illegal force and fails to step in, they will be fired. 👏 👏 👏

I’d rather my kids go to drag queen story hour. More fun, engaging, not to mention safer.

Fucking go!!! #standwithUkraine

CARTOON OF THE DAY

Great! Now how do the American people get back the billions we had to pay in higher prices everywhere?

This is what criminal multiple felon potus assholes who pardon criminal multiple felon maga assholes teach stupid fucking maga assholes.. That this stupid asshole should be pardoned? Fuck off!

Tina Peters is the poster child for aging and entitled MAGA women.

Prominent right-wing figures are calling for the military to free Tina Peters, the Colorado election-denier-turned-MAGA-folk-hero who’s currently serving a nine-year prison sentence for her role in a 2021 voting system data breach, in a failed attempt to find voter fraud.

Layoffs have hit over 1.1M so far this year — the most since the pandemic. Yet corporate profits continue to hit record highs, with corporations increasingly spending those earnings on stock buybacks to enrich execs and shareholders. This is what a rigged economy looks like.
