BREAKING: USCP is arresting Enrique Tarrio for swiping his hand at a counterprotester who got in his face.

The politics of spite are alive and well in Donald Trump's Washington. This compelling piece from The Big Picture explores how the MAGA Republican Party has transformed obstruction into an electoral strategy and what Democrats can do to counter this trend.

Stephen King has returned to Twitter. 10/10. No notes. 🔥

Hey everyone! I did an emergency live over on Substack, reminding us all that we will win this thing! Take a look! adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

NEW: Minnesota was just ranked a top state both to retire and to raise a family.   By investing in the things that matter – economic opportunity, health and safety, and strong communities – we’re building the best state for all Minnesotans from childhood through retirement.

Finally, 1 Republican Senator, speaking out against trump's lies on who Putin really is! Please retweet!

Minnesota is now South Manitoba. I don't make the rules.

Happening now: protesters are outside the Fine Arts Building on Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago this evening. People are in line to see House of Reps Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries for an event tonight promoting his recently released book. Crowd chanting at them, "we don't need a book tour!"

This.

I just wanna congratulate @meidastouch.com for beating Joe Rogan, and thank them for recommending my Substack. Indie media FTW! Check theirs out here: www.meidasplus.com

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

A New York judge said he would not immediately dismiss Eric Adams' corruption case, but ordered the Democratic New York City mayor's trial delayed indefinitely after the Justice Department asked him to dismiss charges reut.rs/3QtGhs9

Sounds about right...

If anyone deserves to go to Heaven, it’s Jimmy Carter. If anyone deserves to burn in Hell, it’s Donald Trump.

He should have been locked up decades ago... Serial sexual abuser.

Rip to a truly great American.

🔥 Tens of thousands march to the center of Tbilisi, paralyzing the city with traffic jams. Protests in Georgia continue over election fraud and the government's refusal to pursue EU membership talks until 2028.

Poor Donny

For context: The current swedish prime minister promising a holocaust survivor not to cooperate with SD, a party with neo nazi roots... Spoiler, he broke that promise.

We desperately need to find a way to remove money from elections.

People who've never been dependent on a paycheck should not get to decide how long you can go without yours.

How do Dems build up their own alternate media? By having elected officials DO INTERVIEWS with them that end up getting clipped and played on networks. Like ours on Fox tonight. My 1st question for every elected Dem: How many podcast interviews did you do this month?

⚡️An An-72 military transport aircraft exploded at an airfield near 🇷🇺Moscow, – Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of 🇺🇦Ukraine This happened on December 12 at the “Ostafievo” airfield.

If the government shuts down Saturday, the richest man in the world will be largely to blame. You may not get access to services you depend on just before the holidays because an unelected billionaire shadow president wanted it that way. If this isn’t oligarchy, I don’t know what is.

Johan Jenny Ehrenberg: ”Järnvägen, elmarknaden, telesystemet, bilbesiktningen, apoteken – nej, det finns faktiskt inget riktigt bra exempel på att avreglering gjort vardagen bättre och billigare.”

Birger Schlaug: ”Hugg ner skiten, så blir det siffror på kontot och tillväxt. Det är väl ungefär så landsbygdsministern tänker. Fast mindre poetiskt. Han tror att granplanteringar är skog, att timmer är skog. Han är skogsmässigt obildad.”

This is so impressive.

US Senators Brian Schatz (D-Hawai‘i), Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), and Peter Welch (D-Vt.) introduced a constitutional amendment to abolish the Electoral College system by allowing the direct election of presidents through popular vote alone. Read more here: bit.ly/3P3wqbU #AbolishTheElectoralCollege

Nationwide manhunts and 1-800 tip lines to protect CEOs. Thoughts and prayers to protect your children.

The gaslighting here is next-level… Alito escapes unscathed, but the federal judge who wrote a personal essay criticizing Alito for Alito’s ethical transgressions is the one who gets in trouble?! www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

Meet the man Pete Hegseth selected to escort and guard him as he made the rounds on Capitol Hill, speaking with senators in his continued efforts to demonstrate he has the judgment and qualifications to lead the Defense Department. Meet John Jacob Hasenbein, who left the military after a 2019…

This didn’t get enough media attention when it happened so I’m posting it again. The Biden’s were not only innocent, they were framed. And the GOP knew it and amplified the lie anyway.

As the drone situation settles down it’s nobody’s fault if you believed it from what you heard, But a lot of politicians and influencers created this hysteria. I’m going to post their posts in a few weeks to remind people how conspiracies work and hold them accountable.

Just like lowering those grocery prices, eh? Lying MFer. I put a bunch of posts on FB about how everything works and how it would go down, and there were still people ready to cast their votes for this crooked bastard. That's when I deleted them all and came over to bluer skies after the election...
