It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans. 🧵 1 of 9

For a GOP president—after the Iraq War—to say outright that invading Venezuela is all about oil is wild. But it is. It’s also about corruption, power, graft, and land. And we should take him at his word. @msnowevents.bsky.social

Walz: "It's very clear that the entire federal government is weaponized against Minnesota. They're threatening us. And this is what happens when you have a floundering presidency and it's about those ballrooms. Now we're back on transgender folks."

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.

Still in a state of shock trying to process the tragic loss of one of the most gifted men in the entertainment industry & his wife when the Embarrassment-in-Chief disgraces common human decency with this repulsive, deranged statement. #NoWords 🤮

Republicans have absolutely no interest in protecting women’s bodily rights! And have no intention on releasing those Epstein files in their entirety. They are verifiably against women!

compare and contrast

So you are admitting there is no legal basis to deport him and you want to deport him anyway.

I am convinced America crossed an event horizon thirteen years ago, when even the deaths of elementary school aged children at the hands of a monster weren't enough for their government to say "enough is enough". Hard not to think that Americans would rather have their guns over their children.

Let's not forget that it was a Muslim man who risked his life and took two bullets to stop the mass killing of Jewish people at Bondi Beach.

This is from a Republican senator. He doesn't attack extremists or terrorists, nope, he attacks 1.7 billion people. Meanwhile, he still supports Trump and makes excuses for the Jan 6 violent insurrection. Hateful, hypocritical, and stupid.

And then there is this -

Lawless, criminal behavior

It's been over three weeks and they still haven't released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

Disney has hiked prices and laid off hundreds of workers this year. Yet Disney paid its CEO $41B in 2024. It just reported a 36% increase in net profits for parks and streaming. And it plans to double stock buybacks next year. Remember this as Disney turns to AI.

Yesterday, Spc Sarah Becstrom was laid to rest in West Virginia at a VA National Cemetery. Surprisingly none of the major major news media mention it. No flags were lower to half staff. Well the Convicted FElon keeps the news focus on him. www.wvva.com/2025/12/10/s...

BREAKING: DOJ has failed to indict Letitia James for a THIRD time! It's like Christmas around here!

Calling the press “fake news” is harmful. Calling them “seditious, perhaps even treasonous” for publishing reporting is something else entirely. Treason is a capital crime. Suggesting journalists should face it for exercising their First Amendment rights and doing their jobs is dangerous.

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

The United States is NOT a company. This is why Trump is a moron. This is why Trump Tariffs are as big of a failure as Trump Steaks Or Trump Water Or Trump University Or Trump's casino There is a reason why Trump claimed bankruptcy 6 times -- he's an idiot, who doesn't know anything about business

It's impressive that Big Tech was like: We aren't douchy enough. What if we made asshole intelligence and burned up some of the earth's power and water faster?

Community Note strikes again!

Please do not take medical advice from this administration. Listen to the actual experts.

The bottom 90% lost a collective $79 trillion in wages over the past 50 years. Why? Because the top 1% ate up an increasingly larger share of the national income — so that $79 trillion flowed to them instead of the working class. The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

NEWS: U.S. companies have announced over 1.1 million layoffs in 2025, the highest total since the pandemic-hit year of 2020, according to a report from Challenger, Gray & Christmas

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

PRO TIP: If you're going to lash out at reporters for questioning your stamina, don't fall asleep mid-rant.

Yesterday the President fell asleep, yet again, during a televised fake Cabinet meeting staged so that each of his courtiers could heap praise on him, praise for which he couldn't stay conscious. He woke up just long enough to spew racism. Why is this not being treated as an emergency? >

There aren't even 4 hundreds of millions of inhabitants in the US, but she's committed to thinking we have all been saved, plus millions more.

The boat bombed 2Xs to kill survivors clinging to wreckage, had 11 Ppl aboard. That suggests it wasn't carrying drugs. That many passengers would weigh about 2000 lbs & cut down the payload. Survivors might say there were no drugs onboard? IT'S MURDER.

Jacob Frey: "We are here to respond to credible reports relaying that there are as many as 100 federal agents that will be deployed to the Twin Cities with a specific focus on targeting our Somali community. To our Somali community -- we love you and we stand with you. That commitment is rock solid"

RAJU: If defenseless survivors were killed, would that constitute a violation of the laws of war? MIKE JOHNSON: I'm not going to prejudge any of that. I was pretty busy yesterday. I didn't follow a lot of the news.

@nbcnews.com This is another waste of time. Ask the right questions and keep pushing back on this regime of liars! Kristy Welker is letting Noem lie.

WELKER: His asylum was approved in April on Trump's watch. Was there a vetting process in place? NOEM: The vetting process all happened under Biden WELKER: Are you saying he wasn't vetted? NOEM: Vetting happens when they come into the country and that was completely abandoned under Biden

How it started / How it’s going

They never really believed in free speech

Oklahoma needs to do better.

What will I do? Likely drop coverage and save the cash. I’ll apply for the cash price for procedures and likely come out ahead. But, my decision won’t help others left in the system. The pool of insured will become smaller and sicker. This is the insurance death spiral.

Ummmm, seems like whiskey Pete maybe shouldn’t have tweet about the war crimes.

🤔

More cracks in the dam

🤷🏼

Russians are literally writing US foreign policy, they have more power projection in DC than in Kyiv LMAO
