New: I spoke with a Colombian asylum seeker who was the victim of a ‘Kavanaugh stop’ about what it was like to be racially profiled, abducted in front his family and held in ICE detention hours from home for more than a month—despite doing everything “the right way.” This is Nick’s story.

Incredible to formulate a sentence like "While I disagree with the sexual deepfakes of children" comma

If I were the European Union (and I'm very much not the European Union), I would publicly and openly threaten to dump 100% of our US treasuries if they threatened the sovereignty of a European power.

"we have to stay on Twitter because that's where the engagement is" is not that distinguishable from "Hitler made the trains run on time"

Jared Kushner has somehow found a place at Coalition of the Willing press conference with Scholz, Zelensky, Macron, Starmer and Witkoff. Kushner has no official position in the US government.

"No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law"

The cheaper the ice cream sandwich, the better.

The "cuddly agendas" department is definitely lacking. We demand MORE cuddly agendas!

I don’t use blocklists but if someone would make one listing every pointless shitbird who piled on Parker Malloy and made her leave, I would subscribe.

you could probably capture our president by writing "nobel peace prize" on a pie plate and putting it under one of those boxes held up with a stick tied to a string

CNN put together a montage of Trump being vocally against regime change before he fell in love with it

Way down the list on how insane and evil this is, but... just a point of con law trivia, I guess: the president doesn't have the power to annex territory. Like, even assuming we militarily occupied it. Just on the domestic law angle, it still wouldn't be "part of the US" w/o Congress saying so.

remember to leave bullet casings out for ashli babbitt tonight ❤️❤️✝️

Unconvinced that people say "peliculas de terror" and not just "los horror movies."

It’s genuinely wild that the United States spent decades building an elaborate rules-based international order which de facto cemented its permanent status as the dominant global hegemon, sustained by ideology rather than might, and now is just blowing it all up for literally no reason

This is not true. Blackstone owns 0.06% of the single family homes in America. There is no market where they own more than 1% of the homes. Nobody has a monopoly on housing. 2/3 of American households own their homes and rental housing is a VERY diversified and competitive industry.

“you won’t get away with this”

So glad were able to spend money on important things like foreign regime change to make billions of dollars for ExxonMobil! U-S-A! 🇺🇸🫡 I am so done with this fucking shit.

The most interesting theory I've heard is that Trump has been swayed by Putin's view of global politics, which effectively divides the globe into the US, Russia, and China. This would mean that the Venezuela attack implicitly suggests that Taiwan is up for the taking by Beijing.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

This is, uh, weird www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

TIL MFs are buying Carlon gang boxes on Amazon for $6.59 when they're like 78 cents at the hardware store.

the 6% is the WaPo editorial board

If kidnapping a foreign president isn’t enough to get him out of office, why would the Epstein files be a silver bullet?

this is pathetic shit. this is exactly how we ended up in iraq and lost thousands of americans and iraqis. this shit. weak, fucking, pathetic, shit. www.axios.com/2026/01/04/m...

The first two hours this morning

Administrations have come up with lots of flimsy rationales for why their wars don't need congressional authorization over the years, but this might be the most transparently bad faith and facially absurd.

The New York Times has just confirmed that 40 civilians died in President Trump's invasion. This is the aftermath in one area

Stop saying that all Schumer and Jeffries ever do is write strongly worded letters. Bullshit. They're not strongly worded at all.

finally, we're living through precedented times

A (pretty thin!) gathering of Miami Venezuelans celebrating in front of a Chevron station is the latest proof that the United States should have to pay yearly tribute to Paul Verhoeven

and what if some other country bombed our military bases & kidnapped president trump? not so funny now is it? no, because that would be hilarious actually.

To do what, exactly? The House will be back on Tuesday. You, as in literally you as an individual member of the House all on your own, could force a privileged vote on impeachment (among a variety of other possible measures) and it would then get a vote no later than Thursday.

Specifically, a protest song about how the sons of the rich were able to avoid fighting, like fighting-age Donald Trump who got four deferments for being in college and another for bone spurs.

Well, it was either all this or another black person in a Star Wars movie

what if we all shared the oil

"They don't call it the Monroe Doctrine, they call it the Donroe Doctrine." - words the President of the United States just said, live

FOX & FRIENDS: What do you see as the future of Venezuela's oil industry? TRUMP: Well I see that we're gonna be very strongly involved in it. That's all. What can I say. We have the greatest oil companies in the world.

This guy sounds like absolute shit and I'm giving him a few months until he's dead.

incredibly unbecoming behavior for a FIFA peace prize holder

"international law must be followed" is european for "thoughts and prayers"

Gotta indoctrinate this child into left-of-center overeducated intellectualism, so we're hanging out and listening to her first "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me"

"In no part of the constitution is more wisdom to be found than in the clause which confides the question of war or peace to the legislature, and not to the executive department." James Madison

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

does this mean that civilians in boats aren't going to be killed now

orcas have the chance to do the funniest thing

You have got to be fucking kidding me. www.reddit.com/r/CombatFoot...

Showrunner: we need an analogue to a real life evil corporation, but don't make it too obvious The writers of Continuum (2012-2015): ok we've got it. The... Sonmanto Corporation.

browsing the internet used to feel like you were uncovering hidden new zones and getting rid of fog of war now it’s like a bunch of cannibal maniacs are chasing after you with crossbows trying to roast you alive
