Bernie Sanders post - How Trump tripled his Net Worth to $6.3 Billion

The real injustice? We can't trust the Department of Justice anymore.

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

Advances in DNA analysis leads to breaks in cold cases in 2025

Hey so this seems like something more people should be talking about 🤔 🗳️ www.npr.org/2025/10/23/n...

We're covering this on tomorrow's @dailybeanspod.com

Thank you to all the performers who are canceling their events at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.

Someone in his administration told him he ended 8 wars. And that GDP is awesome. And that he's creating jobs. And that his poll numbers are great. Trump doesn't have a clue what's going on, he only knows what he's told.

Millions of workers are toiling away from their families over the holidays. So thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail. Pay all workers a living wage.

Is it bad that nobody justifiably believes anything Putin says while the President of the United States believes everything he says?

WATCH — @jenpsaki.bsky.social : “Let’s go back to those 10 co-conspirators…” @rokhanna.bsky.social : “Some of them were at parties where you had 13 & 14 year-olds paraded naked… They did disgusting things. The Epstein class needs to be held accountable. Release the files.”

Oh well if Putin told him then it must be true

“This is a radical change, and one that will surely leave the United States poorer, weaker and more isolated. I cannot help but detect in these nativist outbursts against Indian immigrants and their descendants a profound loss of confidence.” www.nytimes.com/2025/12/29/o...

Is the concept of human rights in the room with us right now?

NEW: DOJ has been to multiple venues trying to shop their criminal case against the people who investigated Russian election interference. And they keep failing. So they're trying to add a grand jury in Judge Aileen Cannon's jurisdiction. youtu.be/W4pImd81anA?...

35 million Americans live in poverty, and yet, this is what our president is focused on.

Due process is the legal requirement that people be given a fair & adequate legal procedure before being punished, brutalized, or deprived of life, liberty, or property. Either everyone has it, or no one does. Are you OK with giving up your right to due process? Are you OK with #IceLawlessness?

OPINION: The heavily redacted tranche of documents violates the public's right to know, writes columnist Rod Miller.

I wonder how past predictions of crises being resolved by Easter worked out?

Kara Swisher, the veteran tech journalist who had a leading hand in uncovering the affair between then-presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and journalist Olivia Nuzzi, said in ...

Netanyahu: We've never had a friend like President Trump in the White House. It's not even close. I think Israel is very blessed to have President Trump leading the United States.

1/2 This kinda of shit is going to get worse too. … At Least 2 People Hospitalized After 1 Million Gallons of Sulfuric Acid Spilled from Massive Tank: 'The Incident Is Not Over' Officials are closely monitoring the air and water quality in the surrounding area people.com/2-people-hos...

President Trump says 2026 will be better for American farmers, thanks in part to $12 billion in new federal "bridge payments." But optimism remains hard to come by in farm country. n.pr/4pgXtjB

Hey question: Have any of the police leadership that sat outside of Uvalde during the shooting been held to account? Good guys with guns

The Supreme Court's refusal last week to green-light Trump's use of the National Guard in Illinois was a welcome rare rebuke. But don't assume that means the end of his efforts to put troops in American cities. www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-nati...

Zelenskyy calls Russia’s claim of a strike on one of Putin’s residences a “complete fabrication,” a lie designed to sabotage diplomacy, justify more attacks on Kyiv, and excuse Moscow’s refusal to end the war. He warns the world must not stay silent as Russia tries to derail peace.

I’m extremely concerned by reports the Trump administration destroyed a facility during a covert action in Venezuela. If this was done without Gang of Eight oversight, it’s a serious violation of federal law and a dangerous escalation that pushes us closer to war: www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

If people admire you, they put your name on buildings. If you have to do it yourself, well… that’s different.

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America: 1. Break up corporate monopolies 2. Continue building union power 3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

Donald Trump telling Marjorie Taylor Greene not to talk about Epstein because "my friends will get hurt" is an example of how manipulative Donald is. Donald doesn't have any friends. And he only cares about himself. He was trying to manipulate her to protect himself.

1991: The United States thinks it has decisively won the Cold War against Russia. 2025: The United States' foreign policy is being dictated by Russia.

Buildings are usually named after dead people. It's a tradition Donald Trump should honor.

The DOJ is so incompetent that it is allowing us to *quantify* its cover-up of the Epstein files.

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.

Every time felon Trump insults Democrats as "scum," "the enemy," etc., he is dehumanizing Dems and further inciting and enabling violence against them.

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.

Trump had Mike Johnson remove Turner as House Intel Chair because he was perceived as too sympathetic to Ukraine. Turner was upset at the time and called it out. But now he’s a completely broken and beaten man. bsky.app/profile/atru...

On Black Friday, while many Americans spent the day recuperating from Thanksgiving festivities, residents of downstate Alton gathered at a public meeting to discuss the future of Wood River.

2025 in review: As part of an annual review of the year, here is a look back at what the Tribune Editorial Board had to say about federal immigration enforcement in Chicago.
