Please proceed, Mr. President! Make yourself the focus of the 2026 midterms. If you can manage to stay awake, campaign for as many GOP candidates as you can. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

You know the old saying: People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Well, Tiny Hands Trump shouldn't question anyone's manhood over his shoe size. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Here's President Barack Obama's final White House ceremony honoring the 2016 Kennedy Center honorees: Mavis Staples, Al Pacino, James Taylor, The Eagles and Argentine classical pianist Martha Argerich. A class act all the way. youtu.be/3VQkX461J2g?...

The actual medal presentation of the Kennedy Center Honors has traditionally been held at the White House. The there is a concert at the Kennedy Center for the honorees. . However in the past the honorees and president and first lady were much classier. youtu.be/P2VTZy8ar5w?...

My latest story for the progressive website Uncharted Blue. Former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is facing trial before the International Criminal Court for "extrajudicial killings." That's what Trump is doing in ordering the boat strikes. www.unchartedblue.com/philippines-...

I’ve predict that the next recipient of the FIFA Peace Prize will be Mohammed bin Salman. Saudi Arabia is hosting the 2034 World Cup.

It should have been called the FIFA Corruption Prize because the football association and Trump both excel at corrupt practices.

Now Trump thinks American football - our most popular sport -- should change its name. Given how the NFL wanted nothing to do with Trump as a team owner and how he effectively destroyed the USFL, perhaps he'll seek revenge by renaming the sport Trumpball. www.thedailybeast.com/trump-demand...

The people who were actually leaving NYC were lower and middle- income people who could no longer afford to live here. Affordability was the issue that propelled Zohran to the mayoralty. And he spoke about how he wanted to make the city affordable so people would stay.

How many countries’ fans will be banned from attending their teams’ World Cup matches in the U.S. due to Trump’s travel ban.

The big question now is whether the court will use some twisted ruling to nullify the California map to claim it was a racial rather than a partisan gerrymander.

The former Russian general is Vladimir Chirkin, who commanded Russian ground forces in 2012-13. He was removed by Putin on bribery charges. His prison sentence was cancelled by a higher court. The Nov. 27 interview was for Russian news outlet RBC. kyivindependent.com/in-rare-crit...

This is no surprise when you look at the DHS' ICE recruitment ads which the Southern Poverty Law Center has described as "using white nationalist imagery and language to recruit new employees and arrest immigrants." www.splcenter.org/resources/ha...

I guess after spending the night shit- posting, Trump easily falls asleep listening to the sycophants in his Cabinet heaping praise on him. He’d wake up if someone in the room actually said things are going to hell under his leadership.

Don't compare the Hegseth family photo to the antifa Von Trapps. There's a more apt comparison: the family videos featuring Magda Goebbels and her children. But on May 1, 1945, the Goebbels committed suicide after poisoning their 6 children in Hitler's bunker. youtu.be/Fs222tyOb-I?...

Who does Trump think he is? Big Brother? War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.” ― George Orwell, 1984

What I hope Jack Smith will do is prepare an opening statement to the committee and release it to the press in advance of the closed door hearing. That way he could control the narrative and play offense. Trump is threatening to have the DOJ go after Smith. So he should fire back/

If Trump attacks Venezuela, will he insist that we not refer to it as a "war," but instead call it a "special military operation" as his Putin did when he invaded Ukraine?

The night before his Cabinet meeting, Tromp put out 160 social media posts in less than 4 hours. Then he was up early to send more posts. This bizarre obsession probably caused the 79-year-old to nod off during his Cabinet meeting.

The GOP tried to smear TN-7 Democratic candidate Ashtyn Behn by calling her the "AOC of Tennessee." So who does Behn bring in for her closing virtual rally - AOC, who praised Behn for showing "a special kind of guts" in her campaign. www.commondreams.org/news/aftyn-b...

I can imagine the scene at the White House as Trump, Hegseth, Leavitt and others decide to make Admiral Bradley the fall guy for ordering the strike that killed the two survivors of the first strike on the boat. Remember this scene from "The Maltese Falcon." youtu.be/vqOByzMoS_A?...

Now Pete Hegseth and Trump are throwing a Navy admiral under the bus for issuing the command to shoot the two survivors of the Sept. 2 boat strike. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

This is why it was entirely proper for Sen. Mark Kelly and the five other Democratic lawmakers to release the video appealing to service members to refuse to carry out an “illegal order.” www.thedailybeast.com/pentagon-pet...

So Trump is advising people to take their imaginary $2,000 check and go to a casino. I would never take advice from someone whose own casinos went bankrupt.

Zohran’s transition period has been just as excellent as his campaign was. We New Yorkers are eagerly looking forward to his mayoralty and can give thanks today that somehow against all the odds we elected him.

Don’t forget that Witkoff also negotiated the Mideast “peace” deal which is already falling apart.

Let’s hope that Marjorie R Taylor Greene forms a third party of disgruntled MAGA supporters upset that Trump is working on behalf of billionaires like himself. Then Democrats can sweep the midterms and win in 2028.

So now Trump is clashing with the architect over his demand to make his one big beautiful ballroom a bigger and uglier eyesore. www.thedailybeast.com/trump-79-feu...

And then there were none. Teflon Don escapes accountability once again with the Georgia racketeering case against him and his minions dropped. Trump has gotten away with plotting to overturn the 2020 election results, and is now claiming he was the victim. www.cnn.com/2025/11/26/p...

Who was the biggest antifa in the cast of Casablanca? It wasn’t any of the obvious suspects. It was the German actor Conrad Veidt, who played Major Heinrich Strasser, one of the most villainous Nazis ever to appear on the silver screen. Here is my tribute to Veidt. www.dailykos.com/stories/2022...

So I guess Hegseth’s plan is to replace Scouting America with the Trumpjugend.

What will you say? ICE Agents: I was only following orders. That didn’t work as a defense for Nazis at Nuremberg in 1945. It won’t work as a defense now.

So when will Pete Hegseth try to ban the film “Nuremberg” as seditious because it shows the consequences when you issue or obey illegal orders that could be considered war crimes, for example blowing up boats in the Caribbean.

The next step predictably will be Trump targeting U.S. District Judge Cameron McGowan Currie, a Clinton appointee, who dismissed the cases against James Comey and Letitia James. I hope Comey and James sue Halligan. Bondi and anyone else at DOJ responsible for these bogus indictments.

Hegseth should be made to watch the film "Nuremberg." The Nuremberg trials provided a basis for arguing that US service members cannot hide behind orders to avoid responsibility for war crimes -- e.g. torture or bombing boats in international waters. Kelly knows the UCMJ better than Hegseth.

It's interesting that the most hostility to Mamdani came from the right-wing media that Trump has put into the WH press pool rather than Trump himself. And Mamdani deftly handled all those hostile questions. It's Mamdani who definitely looked like a winner and in control of the situation..

Hey, MSM stop with this two boys from Queens reference to the Trump-Mamdani meeting. Zorhan didn't move to Queens until after he graduated from college. My neighborhood, Morningside Heights, near Columbia U, is proud to be whereZorhan was raised after his family moved to the US when he was 7.

Adolf Hitler and Heinrich Himmler had no qualms about executing any member of the German army who refused to obey illegal orders. “I was only following orders” did not work as a defense at the Nuremberg trials.

Could the producers of the film “Nuremberg” arrange a special screening at the White House cinema for Trump and his fascist cronies like Hegseth and Noem. Unfortunately the WH movie theater was demolished along with the rest of the East Wing on Trump’s orders.

We dedicate this Beatles song written by George Harrison in 1968 to Donald Trump, his administration , and his MAGA cultists. It's "Piggies," inspired by George Orwell's "Animal Farm," a social commentary about financial greed and class distinctions. youtu.be/t0nzZ8-kIf0?...

Former VP Mike Pence might have something to say about this. After all Trump MAGA cultists set up a gallows outside the Capitol on Jan. 6 and wanted to hang Pence and others for refusing to do Trump’s bidding.

One person who knows what's in the Epstein files is Jim Comey's daughter, Maureen, who was involved in the 2019 prosecution of Epstein. She was fired from the DOJ last summer. Her father sunk Clinton's candidacy in Nov. 2016. She could make up for that by leaking info about the Epstein files.

And two years later these same congressional opponents whom Johnson called traitors impeached him and fell one vote short of convicting him in a Senate trial and removing him from office.

Wouldn't it be easier for one of those migrant caravans to just drive their infected cattle across the Rio Grande and just go around Trump's border wall. Just imagine a cattle drive from an old John Wayne movie. youtu.be/ZxVCrIMPQXI?...

During the Revolutionary War, George Washington did order that a British loyalist traitor in his personal guard be hung for plotting to assassinate him. I wonder who Washington would have considered a traitor to our democracy. www.britannica.com/story/the-pl...

The world turned upside down. Donald Trump and NYC Mayor-elect to meet at the White House on Friday. www.nydailynews.com/2025/11/19/p...

And Crown Prince Bone Saw wasn’t even wearing a suit when he met Cadet Bone Spurs.

And now we have a socialist mayor of Seattle --Katie Wilson. And like NYC Mayor-elect she campaigned on a platform of taxing the rich and affordability. newrepublic.com/article/2033...

Gov. Gregg Abbott has delayed the runoff election in Houston-area CD18 until the last possible date on Jan. 31, 2026. That means the historically Black district will have been without representation in Congress for about 11 months.date www.texastribune.org/2025/11/17/t...
