Next week the Supreme Court will hear another engineered case with fake plaintiffs, which presents another opportunity for the GOP justices to blow a hole through what remains of our campaign finance laws—this time, by turning political parties into a conduit for bribes. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Sadism is the lifeblood of MAGA politics. Hard to overstate how disgusting and embarrassing for our country it is for the US Secretary of Defense to be doing this:

The new US National Security Strategy out today positions the US as an enemy of Europe. It wants to “help Europe correct its current trajectory” - as a multicultural society - and explains Vance’s vocal support for the Far Right AfD. Interfering in internal affairs until it’s a new TrumpWorld.

Cassidy continues to pay lip service to the public health catastrophe he created with his cowardice.

Bongino saying the quiet--and cynical--part out loud. In other words: I was making money shoveling conspiracy bullshit without having any facts and conning my audience to make a buck. After I leave the FBI, I will get back to that. What a confession.

Come to think of it, Pete Hegseth just admitted openly that they're committing extrajudicial murders in international waters partly in order to please MAGA influencers that want retribution for political attacks on Pete Hegseth:

BREAKING: Indiana House approves a new congressional map designed to net Republicans two seats, setting up a clash over the redistricting effort pushed by President Trump in the state Senate.

Got a close up look at Trump’s medal

Indiana state house Republicans just approved a new 9-0 gerrymandered map ousting two US House Democrats, giving Republicans 100% of seats in state where Trump got 58% of vote

The Government Accountability Office says it has opened an investigation into Trump's Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte. Pulte has weaponized his office — accusing Federal Governor Lisa Cook and several prominent Democrats, including New York AG Letitia James, of mortgage fraud.

is Trump going to make it through this awake?

Paul adds he wants Hegseth to testify before Congress under oath. “And I think that Congress, if they had any kind of gumption at all would not be allowed administration to summarily execute people that are suspected of a crime”

Rand Paul tells me that he wants the full video of the Venezuelan boat strike released. “And I think if the public sees images of people clinging to boat debris and being blown up, I think that there is a chance that finally, the public will get interested enough in this to stop this.”

ACIP may end universal Hep B vaccination today. Hep B prevention is Cassidy's passion, as he made clear during RFK Jr's confirmation hearings. But let's not forget... his vote to confirm RFK Jr. got us into this mess! He needs to use every lever of power he has in the Senate to fix it.

Upcoming Supreme Court Case -- unlimited, unregulated money hurts democracy. Really good and educational discussion between @hcrichardson.bsky.social and @marcelias.bsky.social on current events and history as lived experience. #CorruptionInPolitics #Resist www.youtube.com/live/LojhZEN...

I know I’m hard on WH reporters. But DOJ reporters are the most pathetic bunch in DC.

you can't be out here arguing that Trump is lawless and a threat to democracy and then joyfully rubber stamp the very same thugs Trump is installing to help him carry out the lawlessness and threats to democracy you're always complaining about, you fucking pillocks newrepublic.com/post/202207/...

I know Democrats aspire to be a big tent party but I don't think Trump-appointed judges belong in the tent

And that's why Amy keeps voting for Trump's nominees.

To average Americans these rulings come out of the blue, because there's no oral argument and less focus on the shadow docket. And when the Court fails to explain its emergency rulings, they undermine their own legitimacy because they appear to be acting in an unprincipled way.

Supreme Court at any time may issue 2 orders on its emergency docket that will greatly affect how Americans live over the next few years: one on legality of national guard troops in American cities and one on whether States like Texas can re-redistrict and get away with it on timing grounds for 2026

OCTOBER HOME-PURCHASE CANCELLATIONS RISE About 53,000 U.S. home-purchase agreements fell through in October — 15.1% of all contracts, up from 14.3% a year earlier, according to Redfin. High housing costs, economic uncertainty, and a buyer-friendly market are driving the

"Fractures have emerged in the Maga coalition," writes Guardian columnist Moira Donegan. "Republicans are beginning to imagine what the country – and more importantly, their own careers – will look like without him."

This is a beautifully written piece.

It lived up to my expectations! I don’t mind saying, this is the future I want to see…what I’ve always wanted. So many years I did not vote because I felt I had no voice and my life would never change. I hope to see more like this 🤞🙏 @hcrichardson.bsky.social www.youtube.com/live/N15L4Po...

A newly filed indictment claims a wannabe influencer used ChatGPT as his "therapist" and "best friend" in his pursuit of the "wife type," while harassing women so aggressively they had to miss work and relocate from their homes.

Trump's periods of wakefulness during this cabinet meeting are becoming less frequent

I think he’s going to hit the table.

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.

He seems to be constantly fighting 'wokeness' these days...
