Whatever you do today, don’t call Kash Patel “John Edgar Boozer.”

This photo should be on the front page of every single newspaper in America today.

I loved Mark Carney’s strength in his remarks about Trump. It’s not easy to piss off the Canadians.

I no longer consider the GOP a legitimate political party. The President is a terrorist, a traitor, and guilty of so many repugnant crimes that it's hard to keep track, and yet Republicans can't find it in themselves to remove or even criticize him. We pay these people, but they do nothing for us.

A win! A federal judge just ordered the government to hand over evidence from ICE agent Jonathan Ross’s killing of Renee Good.

Ex Deputy National Security Advisor for Strategic Communications and Speechwriting under Obama👇🏽

Well, he TACO’d by kicking the can down the road two weeks— in Trump fashion. The chaos continues.

New Reuters poll finds 29 percent support for DJT—his lowest approval rating ever. He’s losing his voters.

Word of the Day: Patrimonialism Remind you of someone?

The exact same election rules are now in place when Republicans won the presidency, house and senate in 2024. But now suddenly Republicans are unable to win another election without the SAVE Act because everyone has been cheating. Makes sense.

Dems need to be on every news channel saying this. Everyday. All day.

Nail meet hammer

Thune has the votes to override a veto if he needed to so that TSA, etc., could be funded. The GOP too cowardly to do it.

The hubris is lost.

This is bananas! While attacking natural gas and oil fields, the Trump Administration just handed out a 30-day free pass for buying Iranian oil. 'In essence, we're using Iranian barrels to slap Tehran in the face while keeping prices down, all in the name of Operation Epic Fury,' says Scott Bessent.

“Watching Trump lead the country is like seeing a crack pipe sitting on your Uber driver’s seat. It’s scary!” —Dave Chappell

All of our living presidents who still have a sense of decency gathered to honor Rev. Jesse Jackson. Respect recognizes respect.

The fuck kind of answer is this

This is such a well done piece that reports out, with hard data and interviews, something profound about what's gone wrong in this country. www.wsj.com/us-news/amer...

This happened yesterday: Neighbor boy, 11, riding his scooter past my house. I’m outside. Him: “Hey, do you have a job I can do?” Me: “Gosh, no, not right now.” Him: “Well, can you spot me a couple of bucks?” Me: “No, I don’t have any cash, just a bank card.” Him: “Well, do you have Cash App?”

WH appoints Harry Vanderspeigle as special envoy, to help identify extraterrestrial activities in the Milky Way galaxy. The appointment comes after former President Barack Obama said in an interview he believes “Aliens are real.” (Satire)

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It’s about control.

And he still had time to play golf at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, joined by Senators Lindsey Graham and Eric Schmitt.

Pam Bondi should be nervous after even MAGA called for her resignation from DOJ after yet another embarrassing performance at a congressional hearing this week. Keep in mind, after Watergate, Richard Nixon never saw one day in jail, but his attorney general did.

Murphy on Fox News Sunday: "I mean -- c'mon. We're still pretending that ICE is going after dangerous people? They aren't. What is happening in Minnesota right now is a dystopia. ICE is teargassing elementary schools, it is disappearing legal residents into cars, it is murdering American citizens."

Noem needs to go because she’s blatantly unqualified for her position. Stephen Miller needs to go so the cruelty and intimidation can ratchet down.

On Capitol Hill, seven Democratic lawmakers joined Republicans to pass a $1.2 trillion government funding package that includes $64 billion more for the Department of Homeland Security and $10 billion more for ICE. (1) The Democrats voting for the measure are in comments.

i’m watching the Mel Brooks doc on HBO and i highly recommend. i have LOL’ed multiple times.

Sixteen Congressional Republicans can vote to stop this ICE madness today. Twenty-three Congressional Republicans can impeach and remove the president and end the burden on the American people. If they don’t act, they are complicit.

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him. The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

I’ve reached out to both Gov. Walz and Sen. Klobuchar following the latest shooting involving federal agents in Minnesota. Marylanders have witnessed this cruelty in our own communities – during a school drop-off in Salisbury and in Glen Burnie on Christmas Eve. These are not isolated incidents.

Not a word from Republicans in Congress, but let’s give ICE more taxpayer money.

“Just don’t get sick.” (Unless you’re a billionaire)

This is great news for democracy, if it stands. The Government will have an opportunity to respond on Monday.

“Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic. The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.” —MN Gov. Tim Walz

The new Melania movie reveals she was granted an Einstein visa because she claimed to be an anthropologist and an expert in dating fossils …

@markhamillofficial.bsky.social It is so bizarre to me that people who grew up rooting for Luke Skywalker would now watch Star Wars and be like, "His aunt and uncle would still be alive if they had just complied with the stormtroopers."

“Dark, aggressive, and lawless” In other words: We’re being led by a psychotic madman, with an army of lawless thugs, and a Rep Party full of boot-licking cowards. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
