WE ARE STILL IN THIS. Wipe your tears. This is the difficult business of hope and defying expectation. We do not give up. We run through the tape. Y’all aren’t allowed to throw in the towel until I do. 😉 Big breath. Locked in. Let’s do this.

Will Americans allow the Nazification of our country? Will we tolerate mass violence against children & families & extraordinary humanitarian abuses? I'm afraid many will ignore it. But I won't! Will you? My own family were killed in the Holocaust, so I sure AF won't stay silent about this!

Thus

No Democrats should even be remotely close to supporting Pete Hegseth for SecDef. Beyond his many moral failings, he is completely unqualified for the job. You have to be out of your damn mind to think he has any place leading our troops.

Trump is a bully and bullies prey on the weak. They understand the power of fear and exploit it. Capitulating to Trump now — even before he has been sworn in — makes you more vulnerable, not less. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/now-...

Mood.

The billionaire oligarch Assad is bombing civilians and hospitals all over Syria. This is what happens when the ruling class takes over our governance and nations. To hoard our resources and control us they are willing to exterminate whomever.

Totally agree with this. Thoughts ?

This is huge. The EFJ represents over 295,000 journalists in 44 countries 👇 www.thelondoneconomic.com/news/media/e...

The lack of self-awareness is almost impressive.

Even if you're not moved by the argument that Twitter is a rightwing cesspool thanks to its redpilled owner, the fact that foreign enemies are expressing concern that they won't be able to use Twitter to manipulate Americans anymore should be enough to warrant the exodus.

Dear Mexico and Canada, I'm embarrassed and just wanted to let you know that I didn't vote for Donald Trump. Sincerely, Your neighbor

To the Fox interns reading this: let your bosses know that despite their billions of dollars in funding, they’re still losing to a people-powered media network fueled by the Meidas Mighty. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

“70% the illegal weapons seized from criminals in Mexico come from your country. We do not produce these weapons, nor do we consume synthetic drugs. Tragically, it is in our country that lives are lost to the violence resulting from meeting the drug demand in yours.” - President Sheinbaum to Trump.

If you needed even MORE of a reason to switch to Bluesky, China is "troubled" by the fact that they've invested so much time on Twitter buying ads, bots, and influencers... only to see the people they're seeking to manipulate (us) flee the site. www.semafor.com/article/11/2...

I think we can all agree that this is the kind of world we want regardless of politics.

Apparently Donald Trump’s transition team is planning for all of his cabinet picks to have security clearances. However, they only get FBI background checks after Donald takes office and puts his own officials in key positions. It's time for President Biden to order the background checks NOW.

Justice died this past July when the Supreme Court crowned Trump king. But even though we knew today would come, it still hurts. Let’s try to be a little kinder to one another.

Trump alone didn't beat the justice system. He had help. It took Oligarchs relentlessly amplifying his lies on their media platforms. Ethically compromised members of the Supreme Court. 70+ million willing to vote for a convicted felon. There's a lot to fix. But it can be fixed. It must.

Donald Trump's cabinet is the wealthiest in history with at least 6 billionaires. Do tell me how MAGA is the "anti-elite" party of the "working class." 🙄

People in social democracies also feel less anxiety, less worry. Better mental and physical health.

The role of Director of National Intelligence was created after 9/11 because of the intelligence community’s failures leading up to the US invasion of Iraq. The law that created the office says that someone in the DNI job “shall have extensive national security expertise.” Tulsi Gabbard does not.

Nothing to worry about folks, the whale decapitating, dead bear depositing, baby sitter sexually harassing, raw milk drinking, anti-vaxxing future head of Health and Human Services says doing heroin made him a better student. This is fine. This is totally fine. Everything is absolutely fucking fi…

Oh boy

The war in Ukraine is already a world war, people seem to be in denial about this fact. The most important thing now is not negotiating peace with Russia but defeating them so there can be peace. The war will end when Russia stops its invasion, returns the territory, pows and children; goes home.

According to a nationwide survey of grocery prices prepared by the American Farm Bureau Federation, the cost of this year's Thanksgiving meal is now at its lowest level since 2021.

The moment Ukrainian ATACMS hit a military airport in Kursk, diminishing Russia’s ability to launch terror drones at civilians from that site.
