The Supreme Court Justice let neither the law nor the truth stop him from writing many stupid sentences defending the indefensible.

Shitty, greedy people really shouldn't be running our country and world. I'm so sick of the bastards.

Thanks to trump, now we know: We are one of the most flawed democracy in the world. Thieves, grifters scam artists and war mongers are kings. Our water is polluted, our air and food are toxic. We can't stop a tyrant cuz fascists hold the power We are nothing but a highly pretentious feudal society.

Walz: "We've got conspiracy theorists, right-wing YouTubers, breaking into our daycares, demanding access to our children. We've got the president demonizing our Somali neighbors and wrongfully confiscating funds that Minnesotans rely on. It's disgusting and it's dangerous."

Why does even 6 percent of respondents think that the U.S. should determine Venezuela's leadership? That's the bonkers statistic.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com "The world has seen what happens when the will to power dominates world affairs, and its leaders know (or should know) that the most catastrophic conflicts can start from the most modest beginnings," our columnist David French writes.

Ban stock trading by lawmakers in Congress. Full stop.

💯

As of this week, millions of Americans are now paying thousands more for health insurance. If the President and Congressional GOP think Washington has the capacity to "run" Venezuela right now, why won't they fix the insurance cost crisis they've created here at home?

Minnesota has to come first - always. Today, I’m proud of the work we’ve done to make Minnesota the best place to live and raise kids. I’ve decided to step out of the race and let others worry about the election while I focus on the work.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply. I want to make sure this is very clear.

Your activism will be even more important this year. Here are 10 crucial things you can do in 2026. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/what-you-can-do-in-2026

Democrats need to grow a f*cking spine. No more strongly worded letters. It’s time to draft articles of impeachment. Impeach. Convict. Remove.

This new war is not only illegal, reckless and deeply corrupt, it is the latest in a series of increasingly desperate distractions from the EPSTEIN Files. #ImpeachAndConvict47NOW

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad. The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

JUST NOW…

Aw, congratulations!

Most of the time I ignore the asshole's posts. This just highlights the man's utter lack of character and humanity.

Merriam-Webster’s human editors have chosen ‘slop’ as the 2025 Word of the Year.

One reason why Republicans won't extend expiring ACA subsidies? Koch-backed lobby groups have spent over $1.1M pressuring GOP lawmakers to let 20M Americans' health insurance costs go up. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

So the president designates groups of unnamed and unknown people as “terrorists”, then the Secretary of Defense decides who fits under that extremely broad definition, then the US military kills them, and that’s all we are allowed to know.

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American. Two options: 1) ICE deliberately targeted him. 2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens. Hard to say which option is scarier.

Republicans spent years attacking Hunter Biden’s foreign ties. Meanwhile, Jared Kushner raised billions from Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar. And now he sits at the center of U.S. media consolidation and back-channel diplomacy. The double standard is glaring. www.rawstory.com/alternet-pos...

It's so fucked up to have been a kid during the D&D is the devil freakout and the Tipper Gore dirty lyrics freakout and live to see the teen suicide machine get such a pass.

BIG NEWS: A federal grand jury has AGAIN refused to indict NY AG Letitia James in the Eastern District of Virginia — this time in Alexandria. This is just a week after the DOJ tried and failed to secure a grand jury indictment in Norfolk.

MAGAZINER: How many veterans have you deported? NOEM: We haven't deported veterans MAGAZINER: We are now joined on Zoom by a combat veteran you deported to Korea

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

Donald Trump just ended a rule that required airlines to compensate you for delayed or canceled flights. Why? Maybe because the airlines donated big bucks to Trump. Or maybe because the Secretary of Transportation used to be an airline lobbyist. Either way, you lose.

One of the four elements of malignant narcissism is sadism.

Please add "puppy killers" to your proposed travel ban. WE DON'T WANT THEM. NOT ONE.

The Trump administration are just fucking assholes.

Minneapolis and St. Paul leaders rallied behind the Somali community Tuesday after reports emerged that the Trump administration plans an intensive immigration enforcement operation targeting hundreds of undocumented Somali immigrants in the region. (via @mprnews.org)

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration. But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants. The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol made $95 million last year. His workers are striking for the bare minimum. Glad to be on the right side of the picket line with them.

Gorgeous day for a little protest. #removetheregime #resist

I really hate it when scientists keep saying that “we need to rebuild trust in science,” because it implies that scientists are to blame for the mistrust rather than the millions of dollars of dark money that have funded political attacks on science in order to advance a far right agenda.

Russ Vought is openly admitting this nomination is a front so he can stay on at the CFPB while he tries to shut it down. Instead of lowering costs for Americans, Trump and Vought want to make it easier for giant corporations to scam families out of their money.

A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not just the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.

A heartwrenching story of a woman’s 14-year-old son performing CPR as she died at home after being denied an abortion. Abortion bans kill. Tierra Walker should have been offered full reproductive care. JJ should still have his mother. www.propublica.org/article/texa...

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

One third of the country supported the January 6 2021 attempted take over the government & are the same ones who voted him back in. They are traitors in my book.

Picked up a copy of Michelle Obama's new book The Look and Florence and the Machine's new album Everybody Scream on the way home from the farmers market this morning. Now I'm going to spend the day fangirling.
