As predicted on @pivotpod.bsky.social

Uh, yeah.

I have a few words for Stephen Miller starting with he should be behind bars.

Pathetically needy Donald has replaced President Obama's portrait with a tacky fan-produced painting of the time Trump faked taking a bullet to the ear. Not only does this show how thirsty Donald is, it also shows how inept his administration is. The new pic doesn't line up with the molding.

Susman Godfrey statement: "The executive order targeting Susman Godfrey is unconstitutional and retaliatory. No administration should be allowed to punish lawyers for simply doing their jobs … As officers of the court, we are duty-bound to take on this fight against the illegal executive order."

Morning ☕️👋💖🥱

AOC is calling out colleagues for stock trades before tariffs were paused: “Any member of Congress who purchased stocks in the last 48 hrs should probably disclose that now … It’s time to ban insider trading in Congress.” AOC is absolutely right. More here: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/saturdays-...

Great book, and this is where we are headed if we don't turn things around.

Garcia: She's playing cosplaying as an ice agent, running around the country, going down to El Salvador, to prisons. You know, holding guns, dressing up. She is a joke

Sorry, what?

"This is the worst economic policy making I have seen in 50 years of hanging around economic policy." @steverattner.bsky.social

The Republican assault on democracy is one of the worst crises in U.S. history. So why won’t the media say directly that Trump is trying to become a dictator? Why the soft, incremental coverage? It’s as if an asteroid hurtled toward Earth and the media focused on the process of naming the asteroid.

The world, and especially the United States, needs better leaders than these corrupt con artists. Why is this so hard?

I am outraged and deeply concerned that Homeland Security agents visited two Los Angeles elementary schools in communities I represent. We are demanding answers from Secretary Noem and the Trump Administration.

Wow, how insane!

If you’re wondering why, as I have been, here’s the answer. From Ben Meiselas. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

Todays open media scrum in Brampton, a National Post reporter 🙄 asked Carney if he'd commit to recognizing the results of the election. He laughed and said "Of course! Ok,this is Canada. I know certain parties import all their slogans and policies from America, but let's not import that nonsense." 👏

Let's speak plainly about what is happening. The First Amendment has been terminated for immigrants.

CHINA STRIKES BACK: China increases its retaliatory tariffs on US imports to 125%, following Trump’s tariff increase to 145%. Xi Jinping says China is “not afraid” in new public comments.

“No one, apparently, is willing to prevent a single man from destroying the world economy, wrecking financial markets, forcing this country and other countries into recession – if that’s what he feels like doing when he gets up tomorrow morning.” Anne Applebaum

New in PN: Yes, they voted for this "Perhaps the most damning commentary about the US electorate and media is that Trump never even tried to conceal his malicious intentions and deranged policy positions."

They are obviously slow learners

Breaking: 🚨The Supreme Court has ruled against the Trump Administration on the Kilmar Abrego Garcia. ICE illegally removed the young father mistakenly and refused to return him.

Just noticed another way Donald Trump has recreated the Oval Office in his own image--vulgar. Look at the top of the wall. Under Biden it was, understated and painted white. Now, under Trump, he's added cheesy gilded medallions. He's a very poor person's idea of a rich person.

In a real democracy, insider trading is a crime—even for a president. But when power protects the corrupt, it’s not justice—it’s the rule of law in free fall. Europe sees the scam. The world is watching. So tell us—how many Republicans cashed in while the rest of the world played by the rules?

This is how Kaganovich talked about Stalin.

MAGA cultists are like mean drunks at a bar — loud, belligerent, and convinced they’re the only ones making sense, while everyone else just sees them slurring nonsense and picking fights. #MAGA

Wow. This is 🔥🔥 Trump & his Cabinet should be strapped to their chairs and made to watch this on a loop. Victor Gao: “China has been here for 5000 years. Most of the time, there was no United States and we survived.” 🇨🇳 He beautifully trashes JD Vance too. (🎥 Channel 4 News)

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

This was three months ago.

It is past his jail time!!!

Democratic Sens. Adam Schiff of California and Ruben Gallego of Arizona are demanding that the U.S. Office of Government Ethics launch an investigation into who knew what, and when did they know it — regarding the events leading to the Trump tariff insider trading scandal It is urgent that…
