Mockler: It's honestly humiliating that other countries are treating our president like a child, like a baby. It's like if I created a peace prize and I gave it to myself. I'm like, I'm just going to keep this medal on all night. Our president is an actual child

Mockler: Young people are having trouble accumulating capital in the form of housing or in the form of investing. And due to that, you see a lot of younger people turning against the system. We're not loyal to a system that hasn't been loyal to us.

A judge has ordered the unsealing of grand jury transcripts from the 2005 & 2007 investigation into Jeffrey Epstein. The Epstein Files Transparency Act compels the DOJ, FBI and federal prosecutors by 19 December to disclose the tranche of materials amassed during investigations into Epstein.

Good morning to everyone who didn’t extort a corrupt sporting body into creating a fake medal for them because they’re still in their fee-fees about getting repeatedly spurned by the Nobel Peace Prize committee.

NEW: Carol Loennig tells Nicoll Wallace on MSNOW that the DOJ intends to try and indict Letitia James a THIRD time. The trouble with that is these multiple tries help James prove her vindictive and selective prosecution bid, and bolster a case to get the grand jury materials.

Jesus and I would like to remind you that literally no one has ever stopped anyone from saying 'Merry Christmas.’

"When there’s no war, you aren’t committing war crimes when you kill people indiscriminately. You’re just a straight-up murderer."

Trump: "When you look at football in the US, soccer -- we seem to never call it that, because we have a little bit of a conflict with another thing that's called football. But when you think about it, shouldn't it really be called football? We have to come up with another name for the NFL stuff."

Mockler: One of the administration's primary arguments was that these boats were an imminent threat to the United States. Lambert: They are Mockler: They were not heading to the United States

The White House surrenders at 138 million views. Sabrina wins.

Some on the right seemed eager to suggest yesterday that the suspected pipe bomber was somehow aligned with the left. That was before Brian Cole Jr. told the FBI he backed Trump and believed 2020 election conspiracy theories. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

BERMAN: Would it be legal for police in Arkansas to kill suspected drug dealers on a boat in a lake? TOM COTTON: The premise of your question is not well-founded BERMAN: The answer is no. It would not be legal to kill them.

“What have I done!” 🤡

So he’s saying when he was a podcaster he was being paid to lie and invent conspiracies for his listeners but now he has to tell the truth.

POLLING CALL CENTER: "Now I'm going to read you some conspiracy theo— …" MAGA RESPONDENT: "I don't need to hear them, they're all true."

The White House has launched a webpage to report "media bias" tips. It would be a pity if it were flooded with tips about every show on Fox News. www.whitehouse.gov/articles/202...

Abbe Lowell, the attorney who is representing Letitia James: “I can't tell you a time in the federal system...where a federal prosecutor thought a case was strong enough to bring to a grand jury, and the grand jury said no.” @kaitlancollins.bsky.social

CARTOON OF THE DAY

Himes: "What I saw in that room was one of the most troubling things I've seen in my time in public service ... any American who sees the video that I saw will see the US military attacking shipwrecked sailors."

Red Herring Alert! Trump's DOJ is re-asking the court to release Epstein grand jury materials. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/is-pam-bon...

Trump's Drug Trafficking Charade & War Crime #ABlueView🧵1/3 Trump doesn’t care about drug trafficking because he'd do 2 things very differently if he did: 1) He would capture & interrogate the low-level pilots (not kill them) to work the way up to the Cartel's leaders.

Seemed?! Dude was in REM sleep while the Cabinet talked about national security. Drowsy Don didn’t just nod off he was one Werther’s Original away from full grandpa-at-Thanksgiving energy.

So am I.

Me too

This story sums up Trump: No need for evidence. No need for laws or treaties. No need for discussions. If Trump decides (based upon whatever random information or maybe just heartburn) that someone is in the wrong, he believes he has the right to kill them. The US is now a rogue nation.

This is the most consequential story for the 2026 midterms. Yet, I cannot find it anywhere on legacy media. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

If you believe a president who pardons drug dealers is fighting a war on drugs I don’t know how to help you…

i'd say the midterm-level turnout for a special election is even more ominous than the swing

💥 "Pete Hegseth and everyone involved in the illegal boat strike should be prosecuted for a war crime” Judge Napolitano, Newsmax’s legal analyst

RFK Jr: "Two weeks ago we ended, under your leadership, a twenty year war on women". Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

Tonight, we did something everyone counted out. We proved to a nation that states like Tennessee are still worth fighting for. The margin was close, and that can only be attributed to the thousands of volunteers who showed out. This is just the beginning.

Remember the part in the old Peter Pan play where Peter tells the boys and girls in the audience that if they all just clap harder they can save Tinkerbell? That's what Trump's Cabinet Meeting reminded me of. A bunch of children wildly applauding him, all in an effort to bring him back to life.

Hundreds of millions. Wow, that's a lot. That's more than have died in every single war combined in the entire world since 1900.

Lutnick demonstrates why he's called Nutlick: "The greatest cabinet ever for the greatest president ever. I can't be more proud of how you did it, sir. You created the greatest cabinet. It is a joy to be at this table."

Where's the 24-7 coverage on Trump's declining health, inability to stay awake DURING TELEVISED events, cankles, two MRIs, and lack of stamina? Where's Jake Tapper? NYT? Fox? Corporate Media?

Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

I just find it hilarious that his whole cabinet is sloberring praise all over him with ridiculous hyperbole and he is falling asleep while they're doing it. You couldn't write comedy better than this. It's better than VEEP.

Even though we didn’t win in TN, the race was far closer than anyone expected. Incredible work, everyone!

Congratulations to 21 year old Democrat Akbar Ali who made history in Georgia tonight. The youngest state rep in GA history.

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.
