concentration camps.

A Christmas Carol (1843) is one of our most enduring stories bc it rightly insists that to get wealthy ppl to do the right thing, we gotta scare the shit outta them first

"One present on Christmas eve" has turned into mayhem. My children are pelting me with candy canes and shouting "Excess is praxis!" They are quoting Georges Bataille. Please help me

i think donald trump might be a pedophile

DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar: "Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

The pulled “60 Minutes” episode on the CECOT prisoners is down on that YouTube link but up now here: www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...

I just uploaded @jasonparis.bsky.social 's recording of the segment CBS News pulled from "60 Minutes" to YouTube:

BREAKING: WATCH the full 60 Minutes CECOT segment here. This was sent to me anonymously. It appears to be the segment CBS' Bari Weiss killed. www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...

bari weiss saw this and decided that she had to hide it from the american public

!! Here’s a link to full video of the 60 Minutes segment that Bari Weiss killed last minute, via @jasonparis.bsky.social: is.gd/paU8Ko (It was uploaded to the Global TV app in Canada, seemingly by accident, and has now been taken down)

While the international community has largely moved on, Palestinians are still living in a nightmare world. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Trump supporters believe that the left has been embarrassed by Bill Clinton’s association with Epstein because they can no longer conceive of politics being about the role of government versus worshipping politicians like gods

Current Economic Conditions are now the worst in history according to Americans 🤯👀

All of these links went to promotion of this story earlier today. All these links are dead now — that's how thoroughly they've scrubbed this.

This is what makes me take a moment because they gleefully showed everyone the video of missiles blowing up the Venezuelan fishermen who survived the first strike, and bragged about *that* so what is in the files that had them this paranoid?

I don’t know how anyone can still talk about “the AI revolution” with a straight face. Reuters story about a railroad company that has sunk $300,000 into “developing AI products” and appears to have made…a chatbot that doesn’t work? archive.is/2025.12.17-0...

BREAKING: At least 16 files from the Epstein release disappeared from DOJ's webpage, including a photo of Trump, with no explanation.

Do you remember when the broadcast networks declined to air primetime speeches by Obama and Biden they deemed too overtly political? Because I do apnews.com/20ccd7a90e43... www.washingtonpost.com/media/2022/0...

New analysis shows at least 3,800 children and infants have been booked into ICE detention since Trump took office. At least 1,300 were detained 20 days or more, the court limit for how long children with families can be held: www.themarshallproject.org/2025/12/17/c...

Unbelievable. This would be a terrible blow to American science, writ large. It would decimate not only climate research, but also the kind of weather, wildfire, and disaster research that has underpinned half a century of progress in prediction, early warning, and increased resilience.

just a collection of "inevitable" multi-billion dollar tech that was going to be the future of everything until everyone in the audience who was supposed to just get on board said "lol no"

I'm searching Getty Images and found some photos credited to the Boston Herald that redact the faces of ICE/federal agents. They don't redact the face of the guy they're arresting. I'm curious about the ethics of doing this. I don't think I've ever seen this on Getty before.

Well, there's a photo I never expected to see in my life. Noam Chomsky palling around with Steve Bannon.

GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered? GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now THOMPSON: What does that mean?

Remember how they said the upcoming war in Venezuela was about drugs, and then they seized an oil tanker?

This is a time in our nation's history that will be remembered for all the broken fools who needed so much attention.

The most transparent administration in history is now hiding both the complete Epstein files and the complete video of the Sept. 2 boat strike from the American people, only releasing the parts of each that they want you to see while concealing the rest.

lmao

this has become a very important video to me

MacKenzie Scott: *donates $50M every 10 hours° Joe Lonsdale, co-founder of Palantir: "I want to see people hang"

23 people have died in ICE custody. A Chinese immigrant named Chaofeng Ge was found hanging with his arms & legs tied behind his back. Randall Esquivel was deported in a vegetative state & died soon after. People are being tortured, neglected & disabled. Abolish ICE & close the camps.

The mother of Karoline Leavitt’s nephew was reportedly engaged in a nasty years-long custody battle with the White House press secretary’s brother before she was detained by Immigration and Customs enforcement last month. trib.al/gWALLSw

has anyone else noticed that food tasted better in the past? it was mushy and easy to eat. and the spoon would come at you like an airplane

Kristi Noem: "Sir, you made it through hurricane season without a hurricane. You kept the hurricanes away. We appreciate that."

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

My bipartisan IRS MATH Act with Senator Bill Cassidy is now law. Now, if you mess up your taxes, the IRS has to tell you where you made a mistake and how to fix it. No more spending a fortune on lawyers or hours to find errors. That means fewer headaches and more money in your pocket.

Imagine if WH press briefings were under oath and subject to perjury

Think about how much easier it would be to prosecute Hegseth for war crimes if Kissinger or Cheney and Rumsfield had been. Can you even imagine how different the last few decades would be if Kissinger had faced literally any form of justice for his crimes.

‘Remigration’ is a term that comes out of the European far right. Its use by the DHS account is a sign of democratic and epistemic collapse

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences. It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

i’m sure someone else has already put this together but fucking wild he called for members of congress to be hanged the same day the coast guard said a noose is no longer a hate symbol

Crow: "It just tells us everything that we need to know that reminding people to obey the law, reminding people to obey the Constitution, is somehow criminal in Trumpworld and should be responded to with death threats. It's very, very telling."
