Hang up! He fucks and kills children! I'm pretty sure Trump's going to start fucking and killing children on live television and everyone at CBC, Fox, Newsmax and OANN is going to immediately memory hole it.

Have a drink on me. You've earned it. But nothing top shelf. There's a robot out there gunning for my job; I'm sure of it. I'll be lucky if I have job one year from now. Happy holidays. (This is me today.)

But you reach the limit, and then no relief arrives, and even more depressing news breaks. . .

One of the 'original' Chicago Janes—arrested in those famous mug shots—has left us. Bless Judith Arcana and her work, then, and throughout her long life. kboo.com/media/131081... www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

I'm reaching my limit on depressing news. It's been 5 years, and this last year was the worst.

Bari Weiss just sent this Christmas Eve email to the CBS News staff about "building trust," which includes her tripling down on spiking the CECOT piece "to make sure it's comprehensive and fair." One CBS staffer tells me: "She really has no idea how insulting she comes across."

lol let me guess which customer it is. could it be the one that has repeatedly failed to develop a better "last mile" system than the one a 250 year old state-operated infrastructure agency developed for the benefit not of tax-shirking corporations, but for u.s. taxpayers?

Hawai‘i is nearing a pivotal deadline on military land leases, exposing how the US has long abused Hawaiian land and opening a rare chance for Native communities to assert Indigenous sovereignty and demand the land’s return for public and ecological healing.

This after last summers Russian attempts to down American airliners were thwarted by German intelligence.

He’s not on America side he’s a Russian asset

You know this is a big fucking deal right...

If going after the EU and NATO doesn't tell you that Trump is Putin's puppet, nothing will.

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.”

Maybe it’s the other way around, and the Epstein Files is the decoy and misdirection.

May I ask that you elaborate?

I think much of the kompromat, but not all of it, was released. It did its job well. We must also not forget, nor understate, Israel's hand in all of this. I believe they may be contributing to our downfall more than China.

“Pineda-Mesa said he was first sent to west suburban Broadview, where he described being placed in a room with more than 200 men and having nowhere to sleep.”

It’s just not good for the economy to take money out instead of letting the money circulate. It’s so short sighted- it makes more sense to let young educated people have that money in their pockets to spend. And generate economic activity

Another reason to leave the country.

This is the most nakedly oligarch-serving administration in history. It exists solely to benefit the billionaire class and major corporations. That’s it.

CSIS: “This ship will never sail. It will take years to design, cost $9 billion each to build, and contravene the Navy’s new concept of operations, which envisions distributed firepower. A future administration will cancel the program before the first ship hits the water.”

Screw him.

Embarrassing. Nothing good about the UN talking about how wrong the US government is.

A country is only as great as it is perceived by others from the outside. You don't declare yourself great. That's what my german grandparents' generation did and we all know how that ended.

He is going to hand the United States right over to Putin!

trump plans to bankrupt America

Trump administration and MAGA as a whole can be be summed up as a campaign of national self-immolation.

Traitor.

I am not sure if Americans actually understand how bad the optics are of this. Speaking as a german/canadian, I am just speechless of how any American can accept how the orange clown is pissing on everything that really made America great in the past. Is a destroying a reputation built over decades.

As is *every* person keeping him in power.

Trump is a fucking traitor to America.

For this reason alone we can’t just wait for next election but need to heavily ramp up the pressure on Trump and Hegseth

The original formation of the United States was the Articles of Confederation, and it's often overlooked by publishers of textbooks from Texas that abandoning our original formation almost led to a civil war. The AoC had no Executive branch, which, we can now plainly see, makes a lot of sense.

Whatever Putin had on him, it sure is working.

This is as close as you get to treason without forcing people in power to call it as such.

No. We abolish the data centers.

The UK’s largest planned data centre—a project by US firm QTS—is understating its true water consumption by a factor of 50, says new analysis by @watershed-i.bsky.social & @aiarmsracebook.bsky.social @digiconomist.bsky.social No mistake; AI is a heavy, polluting industry. shorturl.at/KXQxJ

According to a new Gallup poll, Trump's approval rating among Republicans stands at a gravity-defying 89%. However, his overall approval rating is only 36% among US adults. news.gallup.com/poll/700241/...

Letter's real, there's a whole host of reasons why the postdate would be late, or why it would get routed through Virginia The administration has tactically leaked a very damaging piece of evidence and hopes to cast doubt on future information by calling into question this one

It's becoming ever so hard to distinguish Trump's envoys from Putin's envoys.

Just want to point out that this man was leading the whole Turning Point USA crowd in prayer last week. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crim...

Mayor Brandon Johnson clarified that Chicago already reaches out to people who owe debt and encourages payment. He said the alternate alder bloc wants to sell that debt to another entity “to use practices that we know, historically, have been detrimental and harmful" thetriibe.com/2025/12/mayo...

NEW: By a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court blocks Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to Chicago to assist immigration agents. A majority holds that he likely lacks authority to do so. Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Smart stuff on the MAGA project's dependency on state capacity that DOGE and Vought have sabotaged. One small note of caution is that the buildout of the federal police (immigration) state continues apace, and we don't yet know how it will end.

"Just to be clear about these attacks on our students, the goal is to outlaw protest. They’re weaponizing antisemitism to go after pro-Palestinian protestors. They want to see how far they can take this. Just yesterday they floated deporting US citizens...the goal is to shut us up.

Having to watch a bootlegged copy of a video from another country because my country censored it is making me feel as if I'm living in 1980s Eastern Germany.
