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 murders in the Caribbean were never about the drug trade. Trump’s oil theft makes that clear.

Truth. Justice. Whatever. #Supergirl lands in theaters and IMAX June 26.

Couple of things here: 1. Trump says he took another cognitive test recently 2. In front of "large numbers of doctors and experts" 3. He called the examinations "long...and very boring" 4. If you're given 3 cognitive exams in one year by panels of doctors, something is VERY wrong with you

Five years of social media history and ten years of email addresses for visitors from allied nations. Identifying extended family. If your business hinges upon tourism dollars, Trump's xenophobia will crush your livelihood.

I haven’t worked in 11 months.

This week, the Senate will vote on Democrats' clean, three-year extension of the ACA tax credits. Republicans have a choice: stop health insurance premiums from skyrocketing or abandon their constituents.

That is patently false: not only do immigrants score better than native-born Americans in tests, the mere presence of immigrants improve test scores for all students, when factoring in white flight sesp.northwestern.edu/news-events/...

Trump’s Family Is Helping Foreign Governments Buy CNN. No One Can Stop Them.

Laura Ingraham - Every ethnic group has had a criminal element. "Oh you're being racist, no...whether it was Italian or Irish everybody has had a criminal element maybe not the Norwegians I'm not sure how much into crime they were.

The Epstein files are about to dominate the media for an extended period of time. Reminder Dec 19 deadline under federal law to release all files - with some exceptions. But even if Trump refuses to release, it will cause media storm. Same if Big redactions

Hilarious. Anyone with common sense knows a Trump pardon means nothing outside the U.S. Oops. 🚨 NEW: Honduran Authorities Issue Arrest Warrant for Ex-President Pardoned by Trump

Trump is letting NVIDIA export cutting-edge AI chips that his own DOJ revealed are being illegally smuggled into China. His own DOJ called these chips "building blocks of AI superiority." Trump and Lutnick need to answer to Congress on why they are selling out US security.

College teachers and staff everywhere, take note

it’s pretty funny that Duffy is simultaneously 1. scolding passengers for not wearing fancy clothes while flying 2. supporting airport gyms so passengers can be sweaty and gross while flying both of these proposals are idiotic but the direct contradiction is next level

Grifters gotta eat too

#ICYMI: ProPublica obtained records from the Department of Agriculture that detailed the millions of pounds of food, down to the number of eggs, that never reached food banks because of the Trump administration’s cuts to an aid program. (Published Oct. 2025)

The insider lobbying game is repulsive www.politico.com/news/2025/12...

Exactly!!!!!

"A new report from ProPublica revealing two of Trump's own mortgages match his description of mortgage fraud... It sounds like the standard the president and his administration have used to go after his political enemies, including NY AG Letitia James, Lisa Cook, Adam Schiff, and Eric Swalwell."

WATCH: An ICE agent pushes away a home security camera as she approaches a house. This is what a police state looks like.

imagine saying this in public to the guy who fucked your business up in the first place.

Duffy: "It's maybe a little odd for three guys to talk about nursing and options for nursing, but ...

I am pleased to announce another no-talent year!

CNN fact-check: Trump has NOT ended eight wars.

Benny Johnson has nothing to hide. by Lindsey Graham, Tim Scott, and Mike Johnson

This is a perfect example as to why we need AI regulation yesterday. AI cannot be the arbiter of whether human beings can live or die. This is an excuse for insurance companies to fire human workers and make our healthcare system even more nightmarish for a quick buck.

Feed your families crippling gambling addiction this holiday season!

Noem Alone

That Miller reportedly wants Noem gone because she's not being aggressive enough really shows how high on their own supply these guys are. What they're doing is already historically unpopular, and they want to do it even harder.

NEW: The Trump administration has argued that Fed board member Lisa Cook may have committed mortgage fraud by declaring more than one primary residence on her loans. We found that Trump once did the very thing he claimed could be a crime.

Why conservatives are obsessed with this bad college essay www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Fun that that this country is burning down because a handful of emotionally stunted dudes were furious they can’t get laid without living up to the low bar standard of “don’t be a fucking weirdo”

100% THIS!!!!

BESSENT: I run a soybean farm BRENNAN: You don't own one. You invest in it BESSENT: People in my family go out and work on it

BRENNAN: If everything is fine, then why do farmers need a bridge payment from the Agriculture Department? BESSENT: Sorry? BRENNAN: Why do they need a bridge payment? BESSENT: You've gotta start financing for planning next year, when things will be very good

Bond prices rise when investors anticipate an economic slowdown or recession. They "flee to safety," increasing demand for secure assets like U.S. Treasuries, which drives prices up and yields down.

We got Weird Al out here singing Killing In The Name, the time for moderation is over

This is like Mr Rogers picking up Mjolnir

@joesudbay.bsky.social explains that the country now sees how Trump’s promises on tariffs and deportation are hitting communities hard. But community backlash against ICE and CBP is growing across the country and showing the power of grassroots organizing.

I feel like someone who has said this recently had this happen to them.

The phone number for the U.S. Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121.

Mamdani: Oftentimes when we win elections, we tell people to go home and just trust us. But the message really has to be that we want you to come along with us… That’s something we’ve been looking to share with New Yorkers: We want to not only win with New Yorkers, but also govern with New Yorkers.

I mean, do we talk enough about how deranged this person is—and how he should be miles away from the levers of power?

Republicans watched it and became aroused. www.theatlantic.com/national-sec...

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.
