"One of the big reasons why a lot of us grew up as conservatives is we were afraid that if you give too much power to the government, someone bad could come in and use it for their own personal gratification and empowerment," @gtconway.bsky.social says. "And here we are. This is exactly it."

To report 2.7% inflation for November, the Trump Admin excluded data on food, housing, electricity, clothing, medical care, and most other categories.

In fact, only 3 of more than 20 price categories were included in the calculations, making the report meaningless.

Actual inflation is much higher.

The vileness is endless. (I haven't confirmed this is an actual DHS post, but given all the other crap they've posted… it seems plausible.)

Oh FFS. This is so clumsy and idiotic that the evil of it is almost the least of it.

THEY ARE LYING LIARS WHO LIE and THERE IS NO END TO IT.
The White House has been caught.

The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.

In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

I think at this point everyone knows what Republicans are fighting for and what their priorities are. If you still support them or give them a pass in any way we also know what you are.

Jack Smith wants to testify in public - Republicans refuse.

He wants his depo tape made public - no again.

The second strike boat video? - nope.

Epstein files law complied with? - not today.

Vote on ACA? - maybe next year.

Republicans: Hide, obstruct, lie, delay, deny.

It does occur that any Republican official or donor who's name is redacted from the Epstein files is now subject to blackmail by the Trump administration, increasing his chokehold on the GOP and the donor class.

They dare not cross him now, on even the smallest thing.

Trying SO HARD to be part of the 'classiness' of the artistic elite. If it weren't so gross and vile, it would be mostly pathetic.

Part of him has to know that his gravestone will be spit on for the rest of time (figuratively, if necessary).
In an act of MAGA vandalism, Trump added his name to the Kennedy Center building

What are the chances that the Trump regime is *not* demanding money and favors from powerful people in exchange for redacting their names and faces in the Epstein files?

ACCOUNTABILITY before forgiveness.
I feel compelled to write this to capture the strange, pregnant mood that pervades. Many people contemplating a post-Trump world are writing, podcasting and advising, sometimes thoughtfully, other times rather callously, about the importance of forgiveness of those who put us here. 1/

Funny animal videos no longer being trustworthy just fucking sucks all around. I love the wonder of animal behavior and what it says about the experience of being alive. It's because it happened in reality that it's so fun. It's not fun if it was just made up. There's no wonder there.

For the record.
The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.
