Happy Traitor Surrender Day! The final and most significant "Confederate flag" wasn't the "Southern Cross". It was a white dish towel. Nothing captures the reality of a failed rebellion quite like surrendering your entire cause with a piece of kitchen linen. The South literally threw in the towel.

Trump promised his tariffs and 2025 "One Big Beautiful Bill" would make the USA "debt-free." Instead, the national debt just hit a record $39 TRILLION. Tariffs hurt American workers and tanked the economy. So much for that "proven economic formula."

"Iraq? Afghanistan? Forget those. Third time's a charm!"

Trump isn't as dumb as the persona he projects, but his followers are, so he continues to project that persona.

"Wait. So we're for gun control and against releasing the Epstein files now?"

Can’t wait for the Toilet Paper USA halftime show this Sunday! Nothing screams "blue collar hero" like the son of a multimillionaire car dealer screeching "I'm a cowboy" while larping as the working class. Just another richie rich white boy cosplaying as trailer trash like ol' JD. 🦅

🧵1/ It’s ironic how the "Don't Tread on Me" crowd is the first to line up for the tread marks. 📷📷📷 We’re watching the party of "Small Government" and "Individual Liberty" cheerlead the construction of the ultimate surveillance state.

When you hire police department castoffs and wannabe mercenaries, with zero accountability or training, you end up with a gang of sociopathic killers. How many innocent citizens will these unhinged ICE agents kill before we take a stand and stop them?

Trump's Gestapo Chief Greg Bovino was on the ground at the shooting in Minneapolis, looking pleased with the outcome.

Nothing says "booming economy" like soaring rent, unaffordable groceries, and 20 million people losing healthcare and food assistance because of the #TrumpInflationCrisis and the Big Ugly Bill. It's astonishing to watch Trump take a victory lap around the dumpster fire he lit. 🔥

Trump became obsessed with building a White House ballroom after visiting England, where he attended a state dinner in St. George's Hall at Buckingham Palace. He's trying to recreate an opulent, gaudy ballroom he saw in a 14th-century castle. #NoKings

What Trump has done to the East Wing of the White House, he has also done to our democracy. The damage has been swift and profound, and we are left to grapple with a loss that can never be fully restored.

Many people will be saying it's the healthiest corpse in history.

At Adventist Health White Memorial in LA, hospital administrators are working with ICE and preventing doctors from properly treating detainees.

Trump sought a convenient scapegoat to justify the imposition of martial law, and the imaginary threat of Antifa emerged as the ideal target for his agenda.

There are two kinds of people: those who roll up their sleeves and do the hard work, and those who sit back and take credit for others' work. Trump is always in the second group.

The transformation of The People's House into Mar-a-Lago DC is nearly complete.

Republican VA budget cuts are jeopardizing veterans' healthcare, causing staff shortages, halting research, and closing hospitals. Contact your representatives and tell them to restore these cuts to veterans’ benefits. #DefendVeteransBenefits

Many Americans still don't understand that U.S. businesses and consumers pay for Trump's tariffs - not the countries from which goods are imported. Trump's tariffs are a sales tax that will hurt small businesses and working families.

For those who continue to repeat Trump's lies, there is no coming back.

Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill" devastating cuts to Medicaid and the Republican Congress's refusal to extend ACA tax credits are projected to cause 15 million Americans to lose health insurance, effectively destroying our health care system. #MedicaidCutsKill

The Republican BBB will decimate health care for children, seniors, and veterans by slashing Medicaid and other programs, adding $3.3 trillion to the U.S. debt, all to fund tax cuts for the wealthy. Meanwhile, Trump has shifted thousands of federal agents and the military to immigration enforcement.

Republican Senators are getting ready to screw millions out of their healthcare with a single vote! TAKE ACTION: Call their offices and let them know we're watching and we won't forget their votes at (202) 224-3121. #VoteNO

ICE just abducted a leading contender for the New York City mayorship for asking to see a warrant. I need everyone to understand that they are not a law enforcement agency — they are Donald Trump’s secret police.

Ever notice how those who view everything as a transaction struggle with moral conviction? MAGA assumes protests are funded by some hidden source, unable to grasp that genuine compassion, not profit, drives decent people. It's called empathy, not a paycheck.

The Senator was in the building for official business. The FBI Police knew who he was and where he was. Any other message is pure spin.

The next season of "The United States of America" is about to be canceled unless you speak up.

Under Trump's direction, Republicans are stripping health care from millions of Americans, including cancer patients, to deliver even more tax breaks to billionaires! We must fight back and let them know we won't let them do it! #DefendMedicaidDefeatCancer

In blind support of Pete Hegseth, Sen. Markwayne Mullin says that he will "lead the breach," "lay down cover fire," "take the high ground" in the line of "enemy fire." It's worth noting that Markwayne avoided military service when the U.S. was engaged in two wars, yet now he wants to play soldier.

🔥 OBAMA: “IMAGINE IF I HAD DONE ANY OF THIS… I say this not on a partisan basis. This has to do with something more precious — who are we as a country, and what values do we stand for?” 🇺🇸

Today is the #HandsOff National Day of Action! Find a rally near you. handsoff2025.com

The entire conversation is a disaster. It was an illegal use of a disappearing messaging app which none of them objected to. Hegseth appears to have copied and pasted the targeting packages into the chat, and Witkoff was literally in Moscow when he joined the chat. open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

This one hasn’t aged great

Republicans want a return to Blue Laws.

Trump is cashing in his SCOTUS chips.

This is a fantastic list of democracy organizers and activists. What a great way to head into 2025 with a squad and a plan!

Our friend Christopher Webb nails it with this thread! Middle Americas isn't flyover country and we need to listen to folks who call it home.

Union voters came out in big numbers for Democrats in November.

Have you ever wondered how Santa Claus became a man of so many names? From St. Nick to Santa to Kris Kringle, it’s a marvel that Rudolph isn’t completely confused about whom exactly he is working for. (via @us.theconversation.com )

Happy Holidays, friends! 🎅🎄

Enjoy your holidays, but buckle up for a wild 2025. Next year, Tariff Clause is coming to town.

Do the Republicans give cash awards for 'Who can be the worst human'?
