The bad news is that it appears CBS News has fallen. The good news is that independent media has been ready for this moment. Join us: meidasplus.com

You notice that with the GOP it's always cuts to Social Security, food assistance, healthcare, education, emergency funding, etc., and NEVER about "let's eliminate tax right offs for private jets and yachts".

Social Security is our money that we put aside for retirement. It does not belong to Congress.

Rick Steves steps in to save Seattle-area hygiene center serving homeless residents. "If we don't have [$2.25 million] for a whole county to give homeless people a shower and a place to get out of the rain and a place to wash their clothes, what kind of society are we?" www.npr.org/2025/12/21/n...

Mamdani: "While only action can change minds, I promise you this: If you are a New Yorker, I am your mayor. Regardless of whether we agree I will protect you, celebrate with you, mourn along side you, and not for a second hide from you."

#Medsky🧪 #IDsky #pedsky #Neurosky #publichealth This study reports that in utero #SARSCoV2 viral exposure was associated with decreased cognitive skills in toddlers at age 2, and this association was mediated by cortical gray matter volumes in the newborn brain.

Sick.

I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this. He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.

Off to a good start

Number of people who go bankrupt every year because of medical bills or illness-related work loss: 🇦🇺 0 🇨🇦 0 🇩🇰 0 🇫🇮 0 🇫🇷 0 🇩🇪 0 🇮🇸 0 🇮🇪 0 🇮🇹 0 🇯🇵 0 🇳🇱 0 🇳🇴 0 🇵🇹 0 🇪🇸 0 🇸🇪 0 🇬🇧 0 🇺🇸 530,000 There’s a lesson there.

We need a new generation of leaders who are the voices of democracy, freedom, social justice, & the rule of law. A new generation that renews the “we” in “we the people.” Instead of fretting over Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Party should embrace him as part of its future.

I solved the daily Clues by Sam, Jan 1st 2026 (Tricky), in less than 7 minutes 🟠🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟨🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟡🟩 🟡🟩🟩🟩 cluesbysam.com

CNN: “Surely you don’t think a daycare should be unlocked.” SHIRLEY: “There should be a reception area.” CNN: “No, every day care is locked.” SHIRLEY: “Fair point.” 🤔 He shows up to a day care with masked men and wonders why they don’t let him in.

MAGA: This is what I voted for!!! Can we get an update on our ballroom!?!

“Can’t believe NYC elected a Muslim as mayor.” In truth—a Black American Christian woman swearing in a Ugandan American Muslim of South Asian ethnicity as his Syrian American wife holds the Qurans he swears in on, all while standing on the steps of a subway station—is the most NYC thing imaginable.

DHS now says it's aiming for 100 million deportations. In an amazing coincidence, there are 104 million Black and Hispanic people living in the U.S. right now.

And @MarshaBlackburn & @SenatorHagerty tried to give themselves millions of dollars for receiving these calls🤔

What the KENNEDY Center used to be… Remember that time Aretha Franklin performed at the 2015 Kennedy Center Honors, paying tribute to Carole King, who co-wrote “You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman,” and it brought a tear to Obama’s eye and everyone to their feet? And Carole King’s reaction. Wow.

We all survived the year not one of us voted for or asked for. Here’s to 2026 and getting through it together. Thank you to all who resist the dark, remain woke, and fight fascism. Peace, love, and all good things to you. LFG! ✌🏼 💙

Boebert suggests that Trump vetoed a water project in her district because she voted to release the Epstein files.

This is why they want us talking about day care scams.

This is how you do it folks

And mind you, the New Yorker published her essay last month. Last month.

BREAKING NEWS: Actual facts appear for the first time on "Truth" Social.

The Paxton divorce docs are now unsealed. I’m no fan of Senator Angela Paxton (R-TX), but this is par for the course for Ken “she gets nothing” Paxton. Besides his criminal indictments, Ken’s affairs were made public during his impeachment trial. FOH 👉🏽: www.dallasnews.com/news/courts/...

Another “prize” awarded Trump to feed his narcissism. Sad!

This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

There are hundreds of videos like this on my timeline. I hope they’re used not just to shock us all today but as evidence in prosecutions to come if/when Trump’s deeply criminal regime is dismantled.

So let’s get this straight: Trump’s DOJ buried Epstein’s crimes but kept flight logs on Julie K. Brown, the reporter who exposed them. Her 2019 American Airlines booking shows up in the files. That’s not a data glitch or an oversight.

Bill Barr had the reporter who broke the Epstein story surveilled. Nothing to see here, folks.

If Marjorie Taylor Greene *really* cared about the Epstein victims, she would read the names of the perpetrators on the House floor (where she would have immunity) before she leaves office.

30 minutes in to Klaus and really enjoying it. How did I not hear about this film til now, yet it came out back in 2019!

Sarah Cooper is back on Trump and she absolutely nailed it 🔥

This is a clear violation of the gag order! Tricia McLaughlin is not a private individual offering commentary, she is the Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs at the Department of Homeland Security and an official DHS spokesperson.

Really weird to see the United States Attorney General commenting on an active grand jury investigation—let alone referring to a potential subject of that investigation as a “bad actor.” justthenews.com/accountabili...

Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta. Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

Once again raising the question -- why is the president's son-in-law at this official event?

Don’t listen to fools or you might become one.

Either way, remember that @theguardian.com is in partnership in OpenAI, and has since published a lot of articles seeking to minimize anxiety or critique of the technology

Insane NY Post column suggesting that the new First Lady who is sad about leaving her longtime neighbors in a not fancy NYC neighborhood is an ungrateful brown woman

There’s a reason the political right wants to keep people dumb.

Bernie Sanders: "We need to be thinking seriously about a moratorium on data centers. You gotta slow this process down. It's not good enough for the oligarchs to tell us 'you adapt.' Are they gonna guarantee healthcare to all people? What are they gonna do when there are no jobs? Make housing free?"

WASH POST: “Corporate bankruptcies surged in 2025, rivaling levels not seen since the immediate aftermath of the Great Recession, as import-dependent businesses absorbed the highest tariffs in decades.” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Or when this happens...

If this is true, it is the most impeachable offense ever.
