President Donald Trump's name has been added to the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts despite a federal law prohibiting changes to the building's name.

Just to be clear. It’s the John F Kennedy center legally. Just like it’s still the department of defense

I respectfully disagree with the jury’s verdict in the Judge Hannah Dugan case. The trial evidence showed that Judge Dugan did not obstruct ICE agents from arresting an undocumented immigrant. Let’s see what happens on appeal. Meanwhile, our support for Judge Dugan continues.

We are days away from the appearance of a framed Calvin-peeing-on-a-picture-of-Biden on some White House wall.

Marco Rubio is the first real boy to turn into a wooden puppet.

Had the three Dems who voted for this held the line and voted no, they could have blocked it.

In this particular way, Trump is A Type of Guy

Bovino: We're in Evanston to address “violence committed by those that shouldn’t be here, in your community.” Mayor Daniel Biss: “I’m unaware of that happening." Bovino: “Well, that’s probably the problem. Maybe you should get aware.” Maybe Bovino should get the fuck out of our town. No, definitely.

Last week, we won our lawsuit and blocked the administration’s reckless and unlawful crusade against wind energy projects. As New Yorkers face rising energy costs, we need more energy sources, not fewer.

Christ, what an asshole.

Fabulous Bouie analysis of the Roberts’ Court’s perversion of our democratic republic, below in a gift link to the Times. Corollary reading in the current issue of @motherjones.com.

The Constitution guarantees your right to follow, record, protest, and notify others about the agents and what you see. These are core First Amendment rights, and DHS has clearly ordered its agents to threaten and violate those rights. cato.org/blog/dhs-pol...

This is a real headline on the New York Times website. Support independent media.

There hasn’t been enough appreciation for how thoroughly BENNIE THOMPSON humiliated FBI official GLASHEEN after he tried to sell the lie that ANTIFA is the top domestic terror threat. The claim collapsed because it’s a cover. Check my latest… open.substack.com/pub/cwebbstu...

Although Trump’s abhorrent political beliefs are ultimately more damaging to the nation, his reprehensible personality is more shocking to me on a personal level. I can’t fathom how anyone can support someone who is so obviously a terrible human being.

In New York, we reject Islamophobia and Antisemitism. New Yorkers know the way forward is through solidarity in our communities and rejecting hate. An attack on one of us is an attack on all of us.

The FBI has issued a call to surveillance companies for drones equipped with AI tech that could scan our faces, license plates, and surroundings in real-time. This puts us all at risk of unwarranted government spying. They must reverse course.

There's lots of talk that MAGA people are objecting to Trump's grotesque response to the Reiner killing on Truth Social. It's true that there are some. But the vast majority are people agreeing with Trump and worse. Don't kid yourself. They hate who he hates. It's what they love about him.

Thank you to everyone who has shared this. The hearing is over for today. DHS has filed a motion to pretermit (end Guan's asylum application in the US) and have him sent to Uganda - where he'd be at risk of being sent to China. The hearing to decide that will be held 12 January.

There is, obviously, no “Presidential Immunity Clause” in the Constitution. The conservative justices’ un-originalist efforts to imagine one into it cannot be supported by text or history. trib.al/s7gCvNt

Asked by a reporter about his crass statement regarding Rob Reiner's passing, Donald Trump offered an encore of his disgusting performance: “I wasn’t a fan of his at all. He was a deranged person as far as Trump is concerned...He was very bad for our country.” Read more: https://bit.ly/4aY7j6i

Trump is intellectually less competent, tactically less savvy, and politically weaker than he was even a year ago. And he's blatantly, flagrantly ill. The costs of standing by him are going up, and the costs of defying him are plummeting.

These people want leftist and liberals to come back to Twitter so badly. They give all kinds of reasons, but the fact is without them the Nazi bar marinates in its own juices and they can't stand it.

Imagine thinking you're "combating" the right by hanging out on a platform it owns, governed by algorithms it has programmed, exposed every day to a torrent of deranged content it has chosen for you. Much more plausible is that you slowly become brain poisoned & lose perspective.

Tons of people talking about what a gifted director of comedy Rob Reiner was but to me his most impressive movie is MISERY (1990). Absolutely expert handling of suspense beats - Reiner could've spent his entire career as a successful thriller director if he so chose.

Apropos to a post I'm not going to quote: no, you are not fucking obliged to battle the fucking right on fucking social media, or go to where they are. Why make yourself miserable shouting at bots (who don't care) or trolls (who get off on your misery). Make your fucking social media enjoyable, FFS.

Usually, when I need an appointment at the VA, I can get one within 2 weeks. Today, I called for an appointment and the next available is in May, 2026. Firing 35K people will do that. The Trump administration hates veterans.
