Almost time for the appearance of the #Catmas tree.
(Thrifted tabletop tree, festooned with cat toy ornaments and doused in catnip spray). All unbreakable, so far hasn't been destroyed and keeps the elves all over the shelves busy, busy, busy!

We reviewed Gregory Bovino and his agents’ tactics in Chicago. From a shooting to Slim Jims, the feds’ poor tactics made for needless safety risks for the public and the officers themselves. “Simply reckless,” former police superintendent said.

""Because working people have been shunted into defined contribution, self-funded retirement schemes, their futures are wedded to stock market returns in a way that people in similarly wealthy democracies find unimaginable."
"Tying a dignified retirement to perpetual 7–10% S&P 500 returns, rather than it being a public good guaranteed to all people, is great for Wall Street and death to working class solidarity."

We put up #Christmas trees because… ancient solstice celebrations did it first 🎄

Evergreens symbolized life during winter darkness for Egyptians, Romans, Hopi, Persians and others. Christians adopted the tree centuries later, and Queen Victoria made it a worldwide trend. buff.ly/hoQlENI
The Christmas tree is a tradition older than Christmas
Evergreens have long served as symbols of life during the bleakness of winter. But Queen Victoria spurred the tradition that has become a global phenomenon.

It’s really a shame they have abandoned the rule of law the country was founded on.

I was just awarded the Peabody from "Allison's Peabody Awards" to be presented in my second bedroom which doubles as a podcast studio. I just want to thank all the wonderful competitors of which there were none, and the amazing judges which are me and my cats. GREAT HONOR!

Bad framing: ACIP voted to scrap the universal hepatitis B vaccine recommendation for newborns.

Accurate framing: Anti-vax conspiracy theorists appointed to ACIP by Robert Kennedy Jr., who made a fortune as an anti-vax profiteer, voted to expose babies to a preventable, incurable, deadly illness.

The public never wanted this to start. The people in position to stop it have apparently already seen it. Beat Cotton into submission and start calling for impeachment
Rand Paul tells me that he wants the full video of the Venezuelan boat strike released.

“And I think if the public sees images of people clinging to boat debris and being blown up, I think that there is a chance that finally, the public will get interested enough in this to stop this.”

NVIDIA's CEO spent the past year lobbying Trump to greenlight the sale of advanced AI chips to China, which could undercut US national security.

Now he's heading to Capitol Hill to push his agenda in secret meetings.

Huang should testify publicly.

🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨

I’m partnering with Rep. Massie & @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social to introduce a War Powers Resolution that will force a vote in Congress to block Trump’s insane escalations against Venezuela.

No one except Trump wants this war—so I’m going to use every tool I have to stop him.

Our allies won’t share intelligence with us. They’re going drop our weapons cuz Trump said “we can turn them off “ No one will take our word in negotiations. They’re avoiding American products. Dollar is losing status as world’s reserve currency. No one wants to visit America

In April, I visited the ICE detention facility in Basile, LA, and heard directly from women detained there. We need answers from the Trump admin about reports of inhumane conditions, medical neglect, and miscarriages at Basile. Pregnant women deserve dignity, not cruelty.

Sad news: my semi-feral cat, Maestro Salzedo, died overnight resting in his favorite scratch box. At around 14 years old, he was the most timid, indoor only cat who couldn't be petted until late this year. He was a true sweetheart, and I'll miss him saying "hi" to me every day.💔

Dems release a video reminding troops of their responsibility to disobey illegal orders.

They’re called seditionists.

WaPo breaks the news that Hegseth said to kill survivors of a boat strike.

WH: “It wasn’t him! It was Admiral Bradley!”

This is why you disobey illegal orders

Regulators need to investigate and hold accountable Epstein’s enablers – and I’ll believe they’re taking action when I see it.

Americans deserve to know that their banking system isn’t facilitating the disturbing crimes of the rich and powerful.
