Some Facts: Despite the growing demand for the workforce, the country’s pool of available workers will barely grow. About 10,000 baby boomers turn 65 every day, and 7 in 10 will need long-term care in their lifetime. www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/blog/shortag...

Merry Christmas and also we need a Chihuahua rescue as our third dog

Peter Thiel says he’ll leave California if they pass a 1% wealth tax on billionaires for five years. So… how much would it take to make him leave the U.S.?

Every single time Trump has a meeting with Zelensky, Putin calls Trump the day before and Trump’s position in the Zelensky meeting then mirrors the Russian position. The talking points are the same, with all the same lies. It’s a simple playbook for Putin and it works every time.

It’s not “patriotic” to bail out Argentina while Americans are struggling, to build a ballroom while cutting SNAP benefits, or to pad your own pockets while claiming “affordability” is a hoax.

Trump calling Putin BEFORE his meeting with Zelenskyy should tell you everything you need to know about how the U.S. no longer thinks for itself.

Loser Mike Johnson hopes we forgot about extending ACA tax credits while he was on Christmas vacation. Let’s make it very clear how wrong he is:

1991: The United States thinks it has decisively won the Cold War against Russia. 2025: The United States' foreign policy is being dictated by Russia.

I know guys (and gals) that sports are nearly the only thing that gives you a break from the distractions and destruction of our planet, but let’s hope it doesn’t keep you from ALSO focusing on what is actually MORE important… because you’re essentially in the dark about what that actually is. 😏

When a WH doctor resigns w/o explanation, it’s never just about career choices. Behind closed doors, medical ethics collided with political pressure. One doctor refused to sign a report he believed was false — and within hours, he was gone. Replaced by someone willing to say whatever was required.

Take some time to watch to my conversation with Senator Cory Booker. We discuss the fight for democracy and how we need a bold, forward-looking moral vision that gives people something worth fighting for, not just something to fight against. Enjoy, learn and share. youtu.be/6Re34Djnw8U?...

Pelosi: "January 6 was really sad in itself. But the sorrow of it also springs from the fact that this president is trying to rewrite history."

Trump says he's going to talk to Putin on the phone *again* after he meets with Zelenskyy

Guys, Trump doesn’t care about Christians in Africa and it’s not really about the Nigerian oil. It’s the rare earth minerals. Nigeria has exploded in rare earth mineral production in the last couple of years. In fact, it is the number five rare earth mineral producer on the planet.

Write postcards. Run for something. Grab a megaphone. Volunteer at a food bank. Support your local library. Go to a city council meeting. Work with your school district on a plan to combat ICE raids. Grab a megaphone and tell your story. Join your local activist club. Register people to vote….

If you're going to drop into every post and reply "So what? Who's going to do something about it?", the answer is YOU. YOU are going to do something about it. YOU are the consequences. Stop waiting for someone else to save you.

All the more important with Judge Cannon’s having bottled up volume 2. A genuine outrage how the administration is fighting the public release of anything having to do with the real facts of Trump’s crimes

Trump is an idiot. He just doesn't know it. That's why he keeps saying dumb stuff. He is absolutely convinced that IF HE SAYS IT, IT MUST BE TRUE

He spoke truth to power. Rob Reiner, RIP.

I think that some of you are mostly venting. And I get it. But venting is not organizing. And I'm sorry but I don't think people know how to get 10s of millions of people to do anything besides voting in this country.

A few months ago, Pam Bondi said she had the Epstein files on her desk. Now she says there are over a million of them and she doesn't have enough staff to read them. She must have a hell of a big desk.

I’m receiving an increasing number of messages from some of you who are concerned about me. Please don’t be. I’m not going to stop speaking out. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/please-dont-worry-about-me

The Supreme Court needs to reevaluate the presidential immunity. This is not a thing. The constitution does not contain anything near it. This gave him the ability to legally shoot someone on 5th Ave and not feel the repercussions. No one is entitled to this. We need a massive overhaul.

So in spring, Pam Bondi said there was nothing to the Epstein investigation, then “closed” it. Now, they “find” 1 million more docs. So did she close this without seeing these docs? Or was someone hiding them?

I was looking through old posts this morning for some reason when I couldn’t get back to sleep… and ran into this one from after the election in 2020… From an old SNL skit… which I remember very well. 😏🫣 youtu.be/IAhF8tPqafQ?...

Trump's tariff fuckery will reverberate for decades! He will have given away America's once favoured trade positions, worldwide, for nothing! But hey maga- you'll get to listen to him tell you how great he is, while you eat shit sandwiches. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...
