Equal parts gangster and gong show at MAGA DOJ.

I know I know… fundraising asks suck and we’re all tired of them. But unlike TPUSA, our work is entirely grassroots-funded. There’s no billionaires, just y’all. We’re still $6k away from where we need to be by EOM. If you can afford it, can you chip in? 🫶 secure.actblue.com/donate/votho...

This is also true about RFK Junior

This would be a war crime even if there were an actual war and these people were actual combatants, which there isn't and they weren't. It's unquestionably an unlawful homicide under any form of law you wish to apply: military or civilian, domestic or international, federal or state. ...

It’s wild how the press is ok with the president abusing the pardon power. That used to be one of the most scrutinized things about a presidency.

What happened is precisely what the world's leading macroeconomists predicted would happen.

Ukraine hasn’t commented on the incident, although its General Staff confirmed a separate attack Saturday on the Afipsky oil refinery in southern Russian region of Krasnodar.

600 ICE agents were supposed to be deployed to Canal Street. Hundreds of New Yorkers gathered instead. Quick summary by me:

Let’s be clear: these are extrajudicial killings. “Kill them all” Hegseth needs to be held accountable. What’s more, Trump promised the American people no new wars but is now manufacturing this conflict & lying about his motives. This warmongering has got to stop.

1984 is over-cited, but the best word for this is doublethink. MAGA has tons of it. Trump is a strong leader no one would cross and a poor victim who deserves sympathy. He brought crime down and crime is out of control. The Epstein Files are fake to hurt Trump and have nothing negative about him.

“Career officials in the office overseeing sanctions at the Treasury Department have at times learned details of Witkoff’s meetings with Moscow from their British counterparts.”

"Surely a quick, violent, successful war of aggression is just what the ruler needs to shore up his legitimacy," said just about every failed monarch in history shortly before invading Serbia.

The deranged madman now threatens to blow up commercial airliners flying in and out of Venezuela.

It would be no worse, and certainly cheaper, for CNN to just go onto a sidewalk and drag someone ranting about chemtrails into their studio. bsky.app/profile/thet...

Another Trump family venture that provides another way to stuff money into their pockets www.tmz.com/2025/11/29/m...

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

Time to ask: In whose interests is American foreign policy being conducted?

ICE still FROZEN at Centre St & Howard in lower Manhattan right now as calls continue circulating for people to join. NYPD arriving with barricades.

“The underling who reached out to me is trying to influence the election on my dime. He’s on my payroll, he’s on your payroll and he’s campaigning on company time. That’s a violation of the Hatch Act. He’s a federal employee. He works in the White House. Does anyone care about the rules anymore?”

YIKES! So disturbing! Trump, Witkoff and Kushner tried to sell out Ukraine, Europe and the US for their own enrichment. There is no bottom. Disgusting! I gifted this so you can read it www.wsj.com/world/russia... ir

As a son of Appalachia, I understand the opioid crisis better than anyone. That's why I'm proud to stand with the Honduran president who delivered drugs to needy Americans with such efficiency. by JD Vance

Ok I’m going to put this as simply as I can. 1. Pete Hegseth wants to murder people. It’s why he sought the job. 2. The admin communicates in bad faith. 3. The purpose of giving a legal rationale is to give “respectable” elites moral cover. And to deliberately waste your time.

calmly explaining why we shouldn't bomb random venezuelan boats to people who argued we should torture random iraqis and then won an election by saying they were against a war they advocated for

and the continuing validity of emergency responses; and (3) what you call an “internal American food fight” sounds a lot like the constitutionally designated process by which America authorizes the use of military force, as messy as the exercise of such an awesome constitutional power inevitably is.

I don’t deny that it could (and should!) be improved. But (1) for better and worse, laws are passed in response to relevant circumstances, and today the circumstances surrounding the WPR's passage hardly seem anomalous; (2) the WPR acknowledges both the President’s role in war powers...

Alternatively: The WPR is (1) law & (2) one of just ~70 overridden presidential vetoes in the 20th century. It is an extraordinary attempt by Congress to reclaim its constitutional authority amidst modern circumstances—an attempt that recognizes "enlightened statesmen will not always be at the helm"

Under a zero tolerance policy, the first Trump administration separated immigrant children from their families at the U.S.-Mexico border. New data suggests separations now happen all over the country, often after little more than a traffic stop.

Can we all just agree Nazis were the bad guys and they have not been redeemed?

Remember the East Wing

70% of Americans oppose the U.S. taking military action in Venezuela. Listen to the American people, President Trump.

🪡 Ahead of 2022, we committed to being the primary outreach campaign for young voters. Through our chapters and volunteers, we made 8.4 million voter contacts — and we were able to fund free Ubers to the polls during the GA runoffs!

This is a fantastic video. Pulling out all the stops here.

No one will stop me from defending our freedoms.

I remain confused about who these AI evangelists think is going to be driving all this profit when everyone's lost their job to AI in the brave new world they imagine.
