🇺🇸 Here’s something I hope you consider most of all today, patriots: "Trump isn’t even close to as powerful as he wants you to think he is, and you are far, far more powerful than you think you are. WE are leading the change and the charge. And we WILL win. I swear to God we will ..."

Everybody is looking forward to the next No Kings Day in the spring. The official date will be announced once we land this with the full No Kings coalition, but trust us that it’s coming. And we can’t wait, either. ❌👑

Like today's right wing trolls (I'm looking at you MAGA influencers who flooded into Portland to produce content for the WH), Kaspar framed himself as a victim of a tyrannical (and also weak) establishment that was "bending the knee" to non-white special interests at the expense of "real Americans."

John Kaspar was also a close associate of Asa Carter, the guy who wrote George Wallace's 1963 "Segregation Now" speech. Dan Carter's chapter on the Clinton, TN episode is well worth reading. www.google.com/books/editio...

Jo Ann Allen Boyce's life was disrupted not only by standard-issue US white supremacy, but also by a particularly virulent strain of American fascism. School integration in Clinton, TN began fairly peaceably, until a neo-Nazi associate of George Lincoln Rockwell named John Kaspar showed up.

Denmark lost more troops per capita in the post 9/11 war on Afghanistan. Saying they “are not a good ally” because they won’t surrender their territories to the US is lunacy. We are betraying our allies to satisfy the whims of a would-be Emperor for whom the US is not enough.

The Walk for Peace monks have reached Georgia State line.

I remember the phrase "they can't be allowed to melt back into society" re: the de-Baathification of Iraq after the war there. Like everything about that experience, the attempt was cynical, stupid, and botched. But there really should be a plan about what we do with guys like these in the future.

RFK: “Where did all this autism come from? It never existed when I was a kid!” “A Christmas Story”, a 1983 movie based on a 1971 memoir about a childhood in the 1930s: “This is my brother Ralphie. He has a ton of sensory issues and behaviors we don’t understand. Every family has a child like him.”

DON’T. PRINT. LIES. IN. THE. NEWSPAPERS. Every damn day. It’s exhausting.

It's incredible how much of this stuff is just out in the open, but because Trump said "Russiagate hoax!" 5000 times, the media was brainwashed into treating it like a nothing story instead of one of a ten alarm scandal

The combination of federal funding cuts and rising prices is making it difficult for many food pantries to meet rising needs. Please consider supporting your local food pantry during this busy holiday season.

What’s interesting about this is that either the WH is showing an unusual-for-them regard for the law, or the uniformed services are forcing the issue, because the issue here was the lack of Coast Guard resources and the decision to not escalate the actual boarding from a civil op to a military one.

From Kenya to wherever you find yourself today, we want to thank you for your unwavering support and - with the help of our Keepers and some of their little charges - to wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

"Andrea" sent us this video for McFarland CA where she is harvesting Mandarin oranges. "It is very tough work going up the ladder all day and moving the ladder in place, but this work feeds my family. We get paid $60 for each 900lb bin." #WeFeedYou

"Ava" shares, "This is how the almond fields in CAs Central Valley look at dawn when we arrive to pruin the trees. They are shrouded in fog and the air is full of moisture. The weather is cold but we work hard despite the elements. This is how we feed our families." #WeFeedYou

Farm workers are hard at work in in Fresno CA harvesting pomegranates. They earn minimum wage and spend their days filling sacks that weigh up around 60 pounds when full. They then dump the sacks into the bins. A tractor hauls the full bins to cold storage. #WeFeedYou

Looking for a Christmas miracle for a kitty (aging parent situation) for Baltimore pals: (1/2) ""My mom can no longer keep Angelo (alas!!!) and we are looking to rehome him. Angelo is a total sweetheart. He is 6 years old, gentle, playful, friendly, and a lovebug."

It’s been a tough year. And 2026 shapes up to be difficult as well We must support one another-now more than ever Hug your loved ones Keep an open heart Support those in need I beg you-please-fight as much as you can I am SO grateful for everyone here Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all

Mr. Cuban, I'm a professor at Yale School of Public Health. Here's a paper published by one of my colleagues in the top medical journal evaluating the Medicare for All Act, which would not only get us there, but would save $450B per year. Happy to discuss! www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

Bedoya: There’s the first bidding war: how much are you going to give Warner Bros. Discovery? The second bidding war is: what are you going to give Trump? Every one of these mergers is a chance for Trump to get his hooks into these networks, and their ability to make fun of him or criticize him.

A reminder that President Obama spent Christmas Eve as President with children at hospitals. The orange felon will spend the holidays with corrupt billionaires and immoral loyalists friends at his crime hub Mar-a-Lago at taxpayer expense. There’s a huge difference.

The Monks and Aloka walking for peace have made it to Montgomery, AL. Over 1,000 miles walked and now approx halfway to their goal, Washington DC.

After Jan 6, the U.S. far right had to find a frame that could distract and shift blame from their election fraud lies. They settled on “censorship” — which made their lying villains into “free speech” heroes, and allowed them to target all of the people and orgs that tried to hold them to account.

The European Union must immediately take symmetrical retaliatory measures by banning US administration officials, such as Trump's new envoy to Greenland, for example, and some of his supporters, known for spreading false information, such as Musk & Co., from entering European soil.

www.cnn.com/2025/12/23/p... Justice Department’s leadership asked career prosecutors in Florida to volunteer over the “next several days” to help redact the Epstein files.

Nina Jankowicz: “They’re not doing this because they have any evidence of censorship — they lost a Supreme Court case that made those claims… They’re doing this because the group of researchers and advocates have stood up to liars like Donald Trump and the platforms that enable them.”

President Biden fought for student loan borrowers and made it possible to have their debt forgiven. Meanwhile the MAGA regime says they will start garnishing paychecks from borrowers who are in default aka raiding people’s bank accounts. They are not the same.

"Indeed, Trump's National Security 'Strategy' is entirely consistent with the goals of both Putin’s Russia and China’s authoritarian regime, both of which have long viewed the weakening of the Western alliance as a key part of their effort to displace the US as the leading power in the world."

My statement on the new Epstein documents:

This is totally underreported. Trump is not just going after "illegals." He's going after people who were here legally, by changing their status. These are people who entered the US the right way, and never broke a law. Now they are subject to Trump's whim, his ICE goons, and inhuman detention.

“I’ll be surprised if the copper pipes are still in the walls when Trump leaves.” With Shawn Ryan Hunter Biden rips “openly corrupt” Trump for Kushner getting Saudi BILLIONS + negotiating peace deals, and fact-checks the “10% for the big guy” line Republicans attack him with

1 - the exec branch can't decline to spend $ Congress appropriated 2- the fed govt can't use federal $ to extort states over policy/political disagreements 3-the fed govt can't use federal $ to impose conditions unrelated to the funding program 4-the fed govt can't use federal $ to coerce states

“He raped me.” “Donald J Trump had raped her along with Jeffrey Epstein.” “She was found with her head ‘blown off’… there was no way it was a suicide.” Now we’re starting to see why Trump was hiding the Epstein files, and it probably gets much worse.

John Brennan is trying to preempt Aileen Cannon in the SDFL Grand Conspiracy conspiracy. Of particular note, Ken Wainstein notes that she may end up being a witness in any conspiracy theory tied to the MAL search. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/22/u...

This is wild. Why would a line like this be redacted: “Epstein also threatened harm to victims and helped release damaging stories about them to damage their credibility when they tried to go public with their stories of being trafficked and sexually abused.”

As you see what the new owner of CBS/Paramount Larry Ellison is doing to 60 Minutes and CBS News, please understand he is planning to do that to Tik Tok as a new owner and what he will do to CNN if can close deal to buy that network. This is how oligarchy works. And Trump/Vance are 100% on board!

The Trump administration is censoring information. If you come across something before it’s censored, save it, download it, print it. Thank you to everyone preserving and sharing records, the censored Epstein files, and to Canada for helping us access Inside CECOT. Don’t let censorship win.

He and George Conway need a wake up call.

Just want to add: Being convicted of a crime in the U.S. wouldn’t justify sending someone to a foreign gulag to be tortured, and arguably violates separation of powers since the “sentence” they are legally bound to serve is one issued by a judge, not Stephen Miller (i.e. the factoid is irrelevant)

Read this again.

The 60 minutes CECOT video is awful. Torture conditions of migrants who had legal status. The end of the episodes alluded to other, less transparent prisons that Trump has used in other countries known for torture.

It used to be that the United States would use Voice of America and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty to transmit truth across the borders of repressive regimes. Now the work of American reporters, having been censored, is being smuggled across the border to reach Americans.

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion. Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government. Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits. This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

The stadium grift is amazing. Just a bunch of humble, downtrodden billionnaires who are always suddenly short of cash to build more luxury boxes for them and their friends. But at least everyday working people get more heavily taxed.

The competition in the Trump administration to be the first to tip off Putin must have been fierce.
