Lunatic.
Trump during his Thanksgiving call with service members: "We're ordered a lot of Coast Guard cutters. Brand new, beautiful, the best machines in the world. I'm a looks person. I wanted the hull to be perfect. You know, I sort of redesigned the hull a little bit. The hulls. But we ordered a lot."

The New York Times reports that German Chancellor Merz found out about the U.S. “peace plan” from newspapers — the Americans hadn’t told him anything and he was shocked to read it.

Meiselas: If Trump was just some crappy, scummy billionaire who lived in Florida, do you think I'd give a crap? My issue is this freaking loser, this con artist, this grifter, this scammer has brought his life of scamming, bankrupting and destroying to the American people, who are now suffering.

Every Democrat in Congress should put out a video saying troops have an obligation to refuse unlawful orders. Make them prosecute all of you. This isn't a close call.

I'd add Republicans too if I thought any of them had the courage to actually cross Trump on this.

The Witkoff-Dmitriev pact is a victor’s peace, but Ukraine hasn’t been defeated. The Russian military has barely advanced since 2022, at a price of roughly a million casualties. wapo.st/3XcRot6

With Trump seeking Kyiv’s capitulation to Russia, now is the moment for decisive European action.

Attack from Within: How Disinformation is Sabotaging America
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERUPDATED EDITION: The MSNBC legal analyst explores the impact of disinformation after the 2024 presidential election—and what Americans can do before it’s too late.“A comprehensive guide to the dynamics of disinformation and a necessary call to theethical commitment to truth that all democracies require.” —Timothy Snyder, author of On TyrannyDisinformation—the deliberate spreading of lies disguised as truth, whether from opportunists on the far right, misinformed media influencers, or others—is fragmenting America more than ever before, pushing the nation toward extreme views, civil unrest, and violence. In this bestselling book, now with a new foreword by the author, Barbara McQuade identifies how disinformation is seeping into all facets of our society, causing havoc in our voting systems, schools, hospitals, workplaces, and the Capitol. McQuade, an MSNBC legal analyst and former federal prosecutor confronts the ways disinformation is being weaponized to polarize voters, degrade our legal structures, and leverage the political influence of manipulators and authoritarians. Now newly updated, Attack from Within shows us how to fight back against misinformed, extremist thinking and work toward preserving America’s hard-won democracy.

Reuters: 200,000 Ukrainian citizens who entered US on U4U TPS program since 2022 are now at risk of losing their legal status. Reason is massive delays in processing extensions due to Trump admin pause — people could find themselves undocumented literally overnight.

Note—every time a Federal judge rules against Trump, Trump claims "the judge is usurping the President's power."

That's a lie.

Judge's don't "usurp" POTUS's power—they enforce Constitutional & Congressional limits on power.

Wannabe kings don't like it, but that's how separation of powers works.

JD Vance and Peter Thiel are running a sustained operation out of the White House designed to acquire Greenland, either voluntarily or by force. Thiel has laid out plans for what he intends to do with the island nation in past writings. It doesn't entail the consent of the Greenlanders for anything.

Elected officials who inform their constituents about federal and constitutional law are doing their jobs. That includes when they remind service members that they could be prosecuted for following unlawful orders because it's a violation of the Constitution. That is the law.

This is blatantly, undeniably true and has been for a long time, and it is cooking people's brains to hang out there and think it's not true. Regardless of if you like this place as an alternative or not. Musk puts his thumb heavily on the scale because your feed there is his personal plaything.
If you're trying to convince your friends to spend time on Bluesky rather than X, maybe show them this. X is not "the public town square" or about "free speech." It's "just what Elon Musk wants you to see." If you see stuff he doesn't like he'll step in to make sure you don't see it for long.
If you scroll on X, you are only being shown what Elon wants you to see. If you create content on X, no one will see it unless Elon wants them to.

After the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, I reviewed a call between President Trump and the Saudi Crown Prince. 
 
The American people and the Khashoggi family deserve to know what was said on that call. 
 
If history is any guide, the receipts will be shocking.

For the first time in my career, I can’t tell people to trust what the CDC website says. And that is an incredibly sad and devastating place for this country to be.
CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”

The Senate passed my bipartisan legislation challenging Trump’s tariffs—one of the contributing factors to rising prices. But Speaker Johnson is using procedural loopholes to avoid bringing it to a vote in the House. Senator Paul, @wyden.senate.gov, and I are urging him to change course.
