An, um, unusual moment at Kennedy Center tonight: the U.S. President calling the crowd “miserable” TRUMP: “I know so many of you, and you are persistent. Many of you are miserable, horrible people. Sometimes I wish you'd give up, but you don't.” (It was a joke about value of persistence. I think)

The Trump doctrine is clear: they want to break European alliances while promoting the extremist far right. Nice to see this response from the deputy PM of Poland. America is a threat to the world.

They’re not hiding the brutality anymore. They want you to see it. They want you to get used to it.👇 www.jackhopkinsnow.com

I turned off the news for 1 day to give myself a break, and came back to this. wtf is going on now?

Very shitty people who become opposed to other very shitty people are still very shitty people

Lots of people have been passing around this somewhat concerning Alex Karp video, but it reminds me that two years ago the NYTimes published a piece he wrote about how AI was going to create weapons based on... the dumbest correlation ever. Nuclear tests over time compared to parameters used in ML

Jared is one of only a few who truly understands the thing happening and is still speaking about it publicly in the way that is needed. We have spoken about this for so long and people still want to disbelieve the reality of what this is and the brutal truth that this is a beginning not an end.

Good Trouble 👏

Corrupt leader of corrupt organization that has nothing to do with peace makes up fake prize to suck up to corrupt narcissist and fascist after he unsuccessfully and ridiculously tried to coerce the real peace prize people to give him the real prize he could never, ever win. Pathetic all around.

It's Trump without Trump - you won't have to listen to his voice or see his face. These quotes are from the Cabinet meeting on 12/2/25. They are 100% accurate and unedited - The Affordability Scam!

Sigh. Ever hopeful the left and centre left get organized and find a better message.

I hate this deal but it's better for Netflix to get WBD than the Ellisons. I just need them to lose. www.wsj.com/business/med...

Interfering with the #AlbertaLawFoundation by giving the justice minister final approval over all bylaws is extreme government overreach. The #UCP must be stopped.

Work for this story began in 2023 as part of a project by the Investigative Reporting Workshop, a nonprofit newsroom at American University. Students, interns, and editors over the past two years combed through more than 1,600 bills filed nationally since 2015. thebarbedwire.com/2025/12/04/a...

For those paying mind, as we discussed on @pivotpodcastofficial recently, there has been a definite fuck that guy feel to this deal related to the threat of Trump blocking anyone but his cronies like the Ellisons from owning all the juicy bits. You could feel the spines growing again. bit.ly/44NVrQs

Octopus Teapot by Japanese ceramic artist Keiko Masumoto #Womensart

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

🚨 I am hearing from multiple sources that the EU Commission is announcing its first DSA fine tomorrow against X on ad transparency, blue check & dark pattern, and researcher access to data. The fine is in the "100s of millions of Euros." Elon about to get big mad.

So Alberta's latest proposed law would: 👉 Take power over citizen-led referendums from the chief electoral officer & give it to cabinet. 👉 Ban new political parties from using certain words in their names, including: 'conservative,' 'democratic,' 'liberal,' 'Republican,' and 'wild rose.'

Dear CBC, the genocide in Palestine is a fact and not 'open to debate'

whether hegseth gets away with it remains to be seen but it is interesting to see that he thought trump handed him a license to murder with this job, no questions asked, and now questions are definitely being asked.

I concluded this weeks ago. They didn't hide it. The UCP didn't have to use the notwithstanding clause. They wanted to, in order to avoid an arbitration process they knew they'd lose. edmontonjournal.com/news/local-n...

NBC reports that Russia finds three parts of Trump’s peace proposal unacceptable: Ukraine’s control over Donbas, limits on its armed forces, and Western countries not recognizing territories occupied by Russia. Moscow is prepared to be flexible on certain secondary issues.
