Legal citizen. Remember this when he spins up the Alien Enemies Act and can round up and imprison anyone he wants to when we're at "war" with like Canada and Mexico

I’d urge Canadians to keep paying close attention to the kayfabe happening down south.

OK here's the thing, you don't have to love Blake Lively to recognize that she stood up against sexual harassment and is now facing a coordinated right-wing campaign designed to punish her and terrorize every other woman who faces similar conditions

Judge Crawford: I think that is exactly why Elon Musk is spending millions of dollars on these phony attack ads against me and trying to get Brad Schimel on the Supreme Court. We need to have a Wisconsin Supreme Court that’s working for the people of Wisconsin, not one that is working for Elon Musk

In 1999, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., then an environmental lawyer, was named by Time magazine as a “hero of the planet” for his pioneering work to clean up America’s waterways. On his second day as secretary of the DHHS, he ended HHS funding for health and climate change.

I wish I could say that this is unbelievable, but it’s totally believable.

Incredible stuff in here: They ID'ed him, in part, by going to court hearings and watching him post

How do you link a government official to an anonymous social media account that asserts, among other things, that "America is a White nation?" Like this. www.texasobserver.org/ice-prosecut...

DOGE is a trojan horse for Elon to gut labor, consumer, and environmental protections. If he actually wanted to cut waste, he'd look at the massive tax loopholes, government contracts, and subsidies that benefit the wealthy and large corporations. Watch my latest video: youtu.be/2hVMghqarHY?...

RFK Jr.’s controversial history

So sad that my paper runs an opinion piece with this glib assertion: "The establishment censors ended up stifling discussion of the lab leak theory, a scenario for COVID-19 origin that seems most likely true." Says who? We used to be more rigorous than that. www.latimes.com/opinion/stor...

Antisemitic far-right broadcaster Stew Peters responds to Kash Patel claiming that he is not familiar with Peters, despite appearing on his show multiple times: "Clearly, Kash Patel is lying. He absolutely does know who I am."

Several senior FBI leaders told to leave agency or be fired, people familiar say www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Corruption is the most important story in the world, part 188

What happened to the Republicans? They once stood for law and order. But today, the party has taken their position: standing with violent insurrectionists over the people who keep us safe from them.

Scoop: Along with NLRB GC Abruzzo, Trump has ousted NLRB member Gwynne Wilcox, despite law forbidding firing board members absent neglect or malfeasance www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Now that the Trump Administration is frantically ripping pages from Project 2025 and writing them into one executive order after another, it’s worth remembering that it polled at 4% approval back in September 2024. Socialism’s numbers were 4X higher.

Jim Acosta announces on air that he's leaving CNN and says, "it is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant ... don't give in to the lies."

Hi that was a coup last night in case no one mentioned that to you. The executive branch seized the power of the purse the Constitution gave to Congress, which is a pretty authoritarian / illegal consolidation of powers move. Time to go yell at your reps, the media, etc.

project 2025 is probably the media's single largest failure I think. there's a lot of grey areas and you can't please everyone, but it is factually true that they are doing large parts of it, people said they were going to do this, they lied about not doing it, and that could have been reported.

He wants us to fight about the Panama Canal and Mount McKinley, so you don’t see him stealing your Social Security and Medicare.

I don’t actually think Trump wants to govern. He ran for president to stay out of jail, not because he cares about anyone but himself. Governing is hard and he will spend as much time as possible golfing in Florida. Keep fighting. He’s a lame duck loser.

It took all of *4 days* before a Republican introduced a constitutional amendment to allow Trump to run for a third term.

Wow

Immigrant rights groups have already sued the Trump admin over Trump's executive order calling for the U.S. to no longer recognize birthright citizenship. The suit, filed by civil rights organizations including the ACLU, seeks to get the action tossed out as unconstitutional.

We don't know what Elon Musk meant with that hand gesture but we do know he's reinstated Hitler apologists on X, praised an extreme far-right German political party and endorsed the claim that Jews push "hatred against whites" www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

Trump just pardoned these people. Don’t ever tell me Republicans “back the blue” again.

The vice-president a week ago. “Obviously.”

I assume most people know this, but seems important to point out basic truths at this moment in time. There is no energy emergency in the U.S. The U.S. is the world's top producer of oil and gas at the moment, and the top exporter of gas, and U.S. oil and gas producers are making record profits.

Trump has rescinded Biden’s Executive Order 14087, “Lowering Prescription Drug Costs for Americans,” which included things like lowering state Medicaid costs for the most expensive therapeutics, reducing Medicare payments for proven drugs, and creating a flat, $2 Medicare copay for generic drugs

Wild. Top is the NBC upload, bottom is the one aired as the live feed

thanks to the Times i discovered a new guy. the man with transition lenses who looks like a casino owner *is* a casino owner. worth $4.7 billion! www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Trump finds a new way for foreign governments to pay him off: Crypto wapo.st/4h8AGmP

Democrats are quickly moving to shield Medicaid — touting its benefits and vowing to fight big changes to it. They’re drawing on lessons from the first Trump administration, when Medicaid became a target. GOP leaders are eying Medicaid for trillions of dollars in cuts. w @jeffstein.bsky.social

Trump gets in bed with the Chinese owners, and suddenly Tik Tok isn’t “evil CCP compromised” anymore. These people believe in nothing. What Trump decides today is what they believe in today. Which changes tomorrow if Trump makes a deal with someone else to enrich himself.

"Thus have Americans who voted for Trump because of the putatively high price of eggs now precipitated a political crisis in Scandinavia." www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

The market value of a newly-launched Trump memecoin — a virtual token that appears to offer direct financial benefit to the president-elect’s family — surged to about $5.6 billion by Saturday afternoon, drawing immediate rebuke from government watchdogs.
