Living in Missouri is exhausting
U.S. Rep. Jason Smith (R-MO) falsely claims that not a single person has gotten cheaper health care coverage under the Affordable Care Act.

"Find one American that says that their health care is now cheaper today than it was when they passed this disastrous bill. You won't."

The public: "We are desperate for help with the cost of living. Please do something."

Trump administration: "Penis."
"Men are men. Men can never become women. Women are women. Women can never become men."

"According to the…annual Harris Poll, for the 1st time, a majority of Americans believe billionaires are a threat to democracy. A remarkable 71% believe there should be a wealth tax. A majority believe there should be a cap on how much wealth a person can accumulate." www.nytimes.com/2025/12/14/o...

In late 2020 a Chinese man called Guan Heng travelled to Xinjiang with our BuzzFeed map of detention facilities to provide ground truth for our work - he provided the first corroborating evidence for many sites.

He escaped to the US - then ICE detained him.

ICE Holding Chinese Man Who Documented Uyghur Camps
Heng Guan is awaiting an immigration hearing on Monday that could lead to his removal from the U.S. and ultimately land him back in China, according to his lawyer and a New York-based activist group.

The Right: preferred pronouns? I don’t have to respect that bullshit, I’m free to act as I like

Also the Right: I demand you conform to my elaborate rituals designed to guard against me fucking you
These people have serious problems.

This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.

I don’t know how else to say it…

🚨Judge Xinis finds that, incredibly, Mr. Abrego Garcia was never ordered deported in 2019. She notes that every since this saga began all the way back in March, the government has NEVER been able to produce any evidence that the immigration judge actually issued a removal order.

Having a confusing time at the “Bigger Paychecks, Smaller Household Budgets” rally
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

CNN: That's not what farmers are telling you. One farmer at a town hall told you tariffs drove up prices of fertilizer

ALFORD: It was Biden that drove it up

C: That's not what the farmer told you

A: Well, that's what I'm telling you

C: Sir, excuse me. Are you listening to your constituents?

FUCK ICE
My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

They can give whatever reason they want but this is another example of them being cruel just because they can. Our government is being run by a bunch of bullies who manipulate science in attempts to explain their cruelty.
