“She has marks on her neck and wrist from where agents restrained her. Agents cut off her wedding ring and held her in leg shackles at Whipple Federal Building for about five hours.” Her crime: witnessing ICE, from a distance.

"Decker said they’re now seeing cases where ICE agents violate constitutional protections on a daily basis. She and other immigration attorneys advise clients about the rights they should have but warn about the areas where ICE agents have been violating them."

So we pay the food tariffs through higher grocery prices, then we pay $12 billion (through our taxes) to bail out the farmers because of the tariffs. In the mean time, grocery prices are still up. Because... tariffs. It's a lose-lose-lose situation for American consumers.

Of course criminal slumlord Jared Kushner is behind Paramount’s hostile $108B bid to acquire Warner Bros. Faking a Middle East peace mission and illegally accepting $2B from Saudi Arabia in exchange for US intel wasn’t enough for this crook. They should’ve jailed him long ago.

Donald Trump's longer NSS completely delivers on Russia's demands. As I feared would happen in the transition when Russia was calling in his debts, he's ceding Europe to Putin. www.defenseone.com/policy/2025/...

DOJ Withheld Proof They Knew Their Assault of LaMonica McIver Was "Bad" before They Charged Her www.emptywheel.net/2025/12/09/d...

CONFIRMED: Eileen Higgins, a Democrat, will be the new mayor of Miami. She'll be the city's first Democratic mayor since the 1990s. She flipped the office from Republicans, and does so easily. She leads the DeSantis-endorsed Emilio González 59/41 right now with most ballots counted.

Hard at work to fix the economy for the working men and women of America.

Wow -- Russia reportedly plotted last year to plant bombs on US-bound flights (gift link) giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

Trump has repeatedly put farmers out of business. Has driven up their costs for everything, including labor. Has them begging him for welfare every year. Tells them he knows more about their business than they do. Lies to them. And they still vote Republican and send him money.

Guess who was awake until 2:45am shitposting again?

We been knew that it was “we love you Jasmine Crockett and run for president” until Jasmine Crockett runs for a higher position Then, it is… she can’t win, she is this. She is that! So on cue for them! So fucking predictable!

I don’t like all the Democratic hate I’m seeing here toward Rep. Jasmine Crockett in the wake of the announcement of her campaign for senator.

"The Bureau of Labor Statistics will skip publication of its delayed report on wholesale-price inflation..." www.wsj.com/economy/bls-...

"The implications are staggering. A sitting president’s family stands to benefit from a foreign-backed acquisition that could place multiple major American media entities under the influence of governments aligned with Trump." www.meidasplus.com/p/important-...

Never will be enough.

So it turns out an ice agent is much more likely to have an arrest record than an immigrant.

Farmers are the new welfare queens. They deserve every bit of the scorn and derision they heaped on people getting SNAP.

LOL farmers are the new welfare queens

Same headline. Seven years apart. 🤡 @politico.com www.politico.com/news/2025/12...

Team Oligarch Suits Up to Torpedo Netflix/WBD Merger talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/team-...

No matter what political talking points Donald Trump decides to use tomorrow, he isn’t fooling anyone. The American people are seeing prices go up — and it's a result of Donald Trump’s economic policies. His gaslighting isn’t going to get him anywhere.

I want FOX to do an expose on any farmer who spends a dime of this money for chewing tobacco, beer, strip clubs, big pickup truck flags and especially any cost for cable access or streaming of FOX they can use their reporters that went undercover to find SNAP nail salon and weave felons.

A big sign that Trump’s bullying tactics don’t work. China’s trade surplus topped $1 trillion for the first time ever, driven by a strong rebound in exports despite weak domestic demand. US shipments plunged 29% under Trump’s tariffs while exports to Southeast Asia and Europe surged. (FT)

Trump has published his National Security Strategy and has declared Europe as the biggest threat to The United States and pledged positive relations with Russia and other autocratic regimes around the world. Russia is celebrating Trump's betrayal of global democracy. youtu.be/pvdkNgrReVo

So Trump's tariffs are working out so great that once again, the taxpayer is left bailing out the farming community with a 12 billion dollar check. I am tired of paying for people who frankly sabotage themselves and then expect the rest of us to pay. No thanks. Time to clean house.

Corporate Media could still end Trump's authoritarian crime spree against US at any point that they chose to report on him objectively. Which is why they don't.

"She said she repeatedly told the agents she’s a U.S. citizen. “I just kept repeating it — I’m a U.S.-born citizen. I was born and raised here. This is my home. My baby’s waiting for me...” She screamed “Leave me alone...” www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Trump's 2025 National Security Strategy identifies Europe as the main threat to America. Trump's agents are never going to stop interfering in European democracies until they are all comparable to MAGA.

Trump says Lisa Cook is unfit to be a Fed governor because she claimed two different properties as her primary residence on her mortgage applications. (Cook denies this.) Trump did the exact same thing on mortgage applications submitted a mere 7 weeks apart. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

Every real economist in America warned at the time he was imposing tariffs that it would affect each of these things, and deportations have affected the ability of farmers to access labor. This is all happening because of one man.

Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too? A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.

I’m not sure I’m going to be able to come on here very much over the next few days. Have y’all seen the comments about Rep Crockett running for Senate? I swear to goodness some of y’all pretend to be allies and love Black Women until it’s time to be an ally & love a Black Woman.

Dad got involved: “.. Larry Ellison, a Trump ally, called the president after the Netflix deal was announced and told him the transaction would hurt competition ..” @wsj.com $WBD $PSKY www.wsj.com/business/med...

It is becoming increasingly obvious that the oligarchs, backed by the scum in the Kremlin and the White House, want to carve up Europe between the USA and Russia.

I am not sure about Talarico. Miriam Adelson, is one of his backers.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett has made it official. She's running for the US Senate in Texas – while former Rep. Colin Allred ends his own campaign for the US Senate nomination in favor of attempting a House comeback bid.

I’m sure everyone hurt by Trump’s policies would like a government bailout, but apparently those only go to farmers who can’t sell their products to other countries.

The calls from America this weekend to "abolish the EU" are for one simple reason: the EU is the only thing that can keep European nation-states from becoming Russian or American vassals.

The PayPal-antir Mafia that pushed Trump into power—twice—believes in a hierarchy of human intelligence which, you may be shocked to learn, puts themselves at the very top. It’s a convenient delusion for the powerful to believe they were just born better. www.mind-war.com/p/convenient...

Texas, let’s win this thing. #JasmineForUS #TexasTough

First thing I heard this morning is attached comment. That was his pay me notice. www.reuters.com/business/med...

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?

The Supreme Court is working hard to turn this country into a despot's dreamscape—while making it nigh impossible for good people to make lasting change for the better. Those of us who begged folks (and national media) to put SCOTUS before everything else in 2016 are in an endless Cassandrian hell.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

"The small figures huddled together at Miami's airport carried backpacks, stuffed animals and suitcases. One wore a silver cross necklace. Families of the travelers – ages 3 to 15 – have been torn apart this year by Trump's deportation campaign..." www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
