Reposting this everyday until Pete Hagueseth faces justice for his crimes against humanity.

You’re missing the part where they inevitably enact national ID & universal biometric identification. The very things conservatives once claimed would be unacceptable tyranny or even the mark of the Beast, but which they will blindly accept as legitimate because Trump, their god and king, says so.

(🚨) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: FBI Admits in Court Filing That It Is Aware of Epstein “Client Lists”—Months After the Personal Lawyer for Longtime Epstein Wingman Donald Trump, Pam Bondi, Told America No Such Lists Existed Take from this the obvious conclusion.

A+ trolling from Zelenskyy

What happened in Indiana — an outburst of Republican courage — was as rare as a sighting of Bigfoot, Lindsey Graham’s spine, or natural breasts at Mar-a-Lago. And it rattled and enraged all of TrumpWorld. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

Q: "What do you make of the president labeling affordability as a Democratic hoax? Is that claim backed up by data?" Me: "No, it's a lie. It's patronizing and it's disgusting. This isn't how we should have economic discussions."

I cannot wrap my head around this. Contempt. Sanctions. Discipline. All are warranted.

How should foreign heads of state react to Trump’s increasingly deranged behavior? We asked three unvaccinated UFC fans at a Chick-fil-a in Spartanburg.

The Trump Administration got the Romanian government to lift the travel restrictions on the Tate brothers. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/10/u...

"All that [tariff] money's gone into a big pot. And what Trump has done is he's taken a bunch of mates and he said to them, I like you. You're a farmer. I like the cut of your jib. You get bailed out, but the rest of us don't."

Idiots.

The GOP just blocked extending the ACA subsidies - again. Making people’s healthcare skyrocket while you control the White House and both chambers of Congress seems like a great move for the midterms.

Reuters Exclusive: The U.S. is preparing to intercept more ships transporting Venezuelan oil following the seizure of a tanker this week, according to six sources familiar with the matter. www.reuters.com/business/ene...

Consider what we saw this week, when he left his Golden Tower of Fluffery to mix with the unwashed in Pennsylvania. We were told this was the moment he would get in touch with the pain of the proles. Instead, what we got was a master class in tone deafness. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

Lindsey Graham voted to confirm RFK Jr. The people of South Carolina should vote for @drannieandrews.com.

“This one just reminded America that Donald Trump’s favorite issue, his only real issue now and for eternity, is Donald Trump.” open.substack.com/pub/therickw...

Powell: "Inflation for goods has picked up, reflecting the effects of tariffs."

Holy smokes! Rubio really woke up and said the biggest threat to America is… Calibri. At this rate, Comic Sans is going to need witness protection.

Pam Bondi is Coming for Domestic Terrorists. You Might Be One of Them. I recorded an emergency pod to explain this story. Fair warning: it’s likely to be the scariest thing you hear today. And, if you’re not alarmed, you’re not paying attention. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

In an unfortunate but completely predictable turn of events, they managed to mess up a good thing.

Letting AI decide whether or not you can get the treatment your real-life doctor thinks you need? Nobody is asking for this. It's an irresponsible dangerous gamble by the Trump Administration.

Biden was such a monster, with his Saving on a Valuable Education program. Now, of course, Trump is dismantling it. Neither he nor his wealthy cabinet need to save money, and he doesn’t understand the word “affordability.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

So, Trump’s plan is to give a $2K one time payment to Americans instead of to insurance companies, but Americans are supposed to use the $2K to buy insurance from insurance companies. Did I get that right? Not only is it willfully insufficient for people’s healthcare needs, but it’s nonsensical.

Yet House Republicans just killed the first comprehensive (and bipartisan!!) housing package of the last few DECADES

BUT THEY CAN'T AFFORD TO!!!!!

New Sympathetic Alarm Clock Just Lets You Sleep

Rand Paul: "This is an insane policy. It's inconsistent. It's not war. It's not the way we've ever done this. If we can blow up a boat in the ocean, what about when they get to Miami & put it in a truck? Can you shoot a grenade launcher at the truck? No! We arrest people b/c sometimes we're wrong."

He just described the ACA.

"Calling my dad what he did has unleashed a (multi-expletive) storm," Hope Walz said. "I have people DMing me saying absolutely horrendous things."

Where are all the nanny-state critics?

Thank you @markey.senate.gov for your commitment to true innovation, and to all you do to push for protections for all of us!

Finland ended homelessness with a housing first strategy that gave people apartments before they secured employment Now they’re proposing a 4 day work week and 6 hour work days True work life balance Meanwhile in the US, people work two jobs and can’t afford food or healthcare.

This is your reminder that Ted Cruz has run for president at least twice since entering politics and was even the Republican nominee in 2012. And he was born in Canada therefore he is ineligible for the presidency. Law does not mean anything to the Republican party. That's where their party is.

📌 NBC News: The boat wasn’t even headed to the U.S. It was traveling toward Suriname.

Trump says Lisa Cook is unfit to be a Fed governor because she claimed two different properties as her primary residence on her mortgage applications. (Cook denies this.) Trump did the exact same thing on mortgage applications submitted a mere 7 weeks apart. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

While it has dropped from being a top story…Trump’s DOJ…recently pushed a ‘historical review’ of 2020. That’s code…for “rewriting the past to punish enemies.” That’s ALWAYS a big story. Watch closely. When autocrats…rewrite yesterday… they’re coming for tomorrow. # HoldFast

The New York Times editorial board thinks Democrats should “move to the center.” Where the hell is the center between democracy and fascism?

It’s unacceptable to expect women in labor to drive farther and farther to deliver. If MN’s nonprofit health systems can’t make maternity care math work without closures and consolidation, #MNleg should step in. GIFT LINK: www.startribune.com/burcum-a-cit...

Voting for more hepatitis B, which is a leading cause of cancer worldwide is peak MAHA / MAGA self own right now.

Here’s what he’s missing: We have a president calling immigrants “garbage” and affordability a hoax, a DOD secretary cosplaying war games with no accountability, a VP saying it’s “reasonable” to not want neighbors who speak another language, and a Speaker who believes women are inferior. The GOP.

Shut up, rich boy

What they’ve described here is murder. Full stop. We don’t deny aid, and we don’t execute people who are trying to surrender. It should make EVERYONE nauseous. But yes, this story is falling apart.

So he did, in fact, say “kill them all”.

Bad framing: ACIP voted to scrap the universal hepatitis B vaccine recommendation for newborns. Accurate framing: Anti-vax conspiracy theorists appointed to ACIP by Robert Kennedy Jr., who made a fortune as an anti-vax profiteer, voted to expose babies to a preventable, incurable, deadly illness.
