It’s really strange the vice president of the United States is a white supremacist, who says white supremacist slogans, who publicly praises and follows the work of white supremacists, and it’s simply not mentioned or discussed in political media

This is what political leadership looks like 👇

CBS didn't run the 60 Minutes segment on CECOT, but over here at @propublica.org we've been working on the story since March, including finding out who each and every man sent to that maximum security prison was. You can see our reporting here: www.propublica.org/series/depor...

Since I’m getting “what did I miss” from alot, Paramount Plus, owner of CBS spiked the El Salvador CECOT prison story yesterday on 60 minutes because it made the White House look bad. Cancel paramount plus Censorship. Bari Weiss

The DOJ released thousands of numerically labeled Epstein files yesterday. In one file was a photo of Trump with young girls. As of this morning, that file EFTA00000468 is now missing from the DOJ website. They deleted it. #CoverUp

"This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron." Dwight D. Eisenhower

Maria has been accused over the years of fabricating her story that she had gone to the FBI. After finding the document in the trove, I called her. She broke down in tears. “I’ve waited 30 years. I can’t believe it. They can’t call me a liar anymore.” www.nytimes.com/2025/12/19/u...

The 6 richest men in the world are all Trump allies. They control your algorithms and data on X, TikTok, Twitch, Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, Threads, and YouTube. Just in case you’re wondering why more isn’t done to stop right-wing bots and misinformation on social media.

I have a new theory on why we keep electing Dems to clean up and Rs after everything is good. Rs have been very good at manipulating the media environment when things are going well. Freak outs about Haitians and trans athletes work when there isn't some other, undeniable catastrophe going on...

This is what's so aggravating to me.

"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future." - @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit. Incredible words. Listen to all of it!

“Joe Campbell, a Pentecostal preacher who for half a century ministered to thousands of children across four states, has been arrested on child sex abuse charges, the Oklahoma Attorney General’s Office said Wednesday.“ Still not a drag queen.

Greg Bovino is back in Chicago, and ICE has been spotted in the Evanston area. The best way to keep our loved ones safe is to alert the community whenever possible. Whistles are one of the most accessible tools to warn neighbors and disrupt ICE incursions. Come pick up a whistle, if you need one!

Anyone who sees Bovino in Rogers Park, let us know. We’re doing ICE watch. Whistles out. Be on alert. Help protect our community.

Reminds me of the Constantine movie. Mammon needed help from God to cross over.

We are failing our kids

I know #ACA Open Enrollment is chaotic this year but it's still important to #GetCovered if at all possible. The deadline for January 1st coverage is MIDNIGHT TONIGHT in most states. Visit HealthCare.gov or your state-based exchange NOW.

So much for that

"Every single act of gun violence is 100% preventable." Brown University student Mia Tretta talks about the fear and uncertainty of living through Saturday's mass shooting on campus. It was her second school shooting after she survived being shot in the stomach at age 15.

Remarkable reporting and writing. By @annamaria.bsky.social + Brett Murphy / @propublica.org

Instead of responding only with thoughts and prayers, Australia will respond with laws and regulations. Because, unlike the United States, it values the lives of its citizens over any sick adulation of firearms. The 1996 Port Arthur massacre led to immediate, sweeping, bipartisan gun law reforms.

also not lost on me that many of the same people who say stuff like "we used to be the party of the factory floor" are dinosaur Clintonite or Atari Democrat shitheads. When did the "used to be" start?

At some point it is pretty freeing to accept the fact that complete buffoons have taken over most of the things you thought were important institutions

We sadly know Zoe Weissman because of Parkland. In fact, our families are so close, that she has been there for my wife and I after Parkland and helped with our foundation Orange Ribbons For Jaime. America, are you ok with this?

Yesterday I spoke to a non-US journalist about collaborating on a project in the US. They explained that they would need someone on the ground in the US because they didn't expect they'd be let in the country and weren't going to risk it. White European journalist, too.

Number of convictions for assaulting Border agents/ICE agents. 2024: 1 2025: 1 Methinks this uptick in assaults on ICE is bullshit.

🚨🚨🚨 House GOP *will* hold vote on healthcare package w/subsidy extension after all, but DANGER WILL ROBINSON... acasignups.net/25/12/12/hou...

Don’t miss my latest from this week!

It’s 2:24 am and air raid siren is on in Kyiv ⚠️🔉loud siren. Russian mIG bomber in the air detected

a reality of living in city attacked daily: sometimes you shelter, sometimes you don’t have energy for it - which means you are lucky enough to be able to ignore it this time. Still while lying in bed I felt

A quick sidenote about this; one reason I stay on X is specifically because of exchanges like this, where @davidjbier.bsky.social and I got a prominent government official to make a claim so outrageous that it’s now ricocheting around the internet and actively undermining official PR campaigns.

🤷🏼 ⏰ Trump’s Heath care plan is coming “very soon” y’all (From Home of the Brave)

There is a network of court watchers who support immigrants at the ICE courts in Manhattan. They have learned the movements and "personas" of the masked agents. One told me: "Some of them are very sadistic." talkingpointsmemo.com/feature/new-...

Appreciate this letter from MN State Sen Jim Abler (R-Anoka) to POTUS

BREAKING: Indiana Republicans FAILED to pass a new 9-0 congressional gerrymander after enough GOP senators sided with Dems. The GOP's 7-2 map stays in place. Trump is trying to re-gerrymander maps nationwide. At least 11 Indiana Rs got death threats after he called for primaries—but it still failed

There are two other discharge petitions to extend the ACA subsidies and both have enough Republicans on them already to pass. Mike Johnson has lost control of the floor of the House of Representatives.

Republicans have tried to repeal the ACA over 70 times over the last 15 years. They've had 15 years to come up with a replacement plan. 15 years later? They have no plan. And today they voted to spike healthcare premiums for over half a million Michiganders.

Yeah but it's short sighted to be signing on for "purity tests" on issues like "water."

This American's dignity and grace in sharp contrast to agents of this government

The economic backbone for so many communities across America is tourism. Because of this White House it is collapsing. Anyone in the @GOP (The Enablers) should be fired in the 2026 election for letting this happen. Vote for Democrats only and put an end to the destruction of America.

When @dfriedman.bsky.social discovered a Goodreads page tied to the email of a top Pentagon official featuring “Asian wife sharing” books and other pornographic works, he did what any reporter would do: ask the Pentagon questions. The very next day, a threatening email from Jack Posobiec arrived.

We now learn that Fifa had a very specific "ask" in exchange for its "Peace Award" to Trump, with loads of gold trinkets, and that was dismissal of a criminal corruption case against senior Fifa officials. And Trump granted it. Another corrupt bargain, barely noticed (and ignored by US media).

The way that this administration is targeting and harassing Somalians in Minneapolis is disgusting and vile. Keep filming this because one day we are going to hold these agents accountable. Last I heard peacefully protesting doesn’t warrant being sprayed with chemical irritants.

"At the coffee shop near campus, students said they worried about what is safe to discuss in their classes under the new leadership." www.nytimes.com/2025/12/10/u...

Standing with members of @sbworkersunited.org in Chicago today, demanding fair pay and dignity on the job. This holiday season, choose solidarity. Don’t cross the picket line.
