It was NOT A MANDATE for Trump in 2024. He won by about 1%, 2.5 million votes. More registered voters chose not to vote. #Trumpcession

If Larry Summers is - rightly - disgraced following the latest Epstein revelations, there's another man who's been talked about less and who deserves disgrace at least as much.

Steve Bannon Was Epstein’s Comeback Consultant. Where’s the Uproar?
The MAGA architect is escaping opprobrium for his chummy relationship with the notorious pedophile.

Don’t forget LBJ and the war on poverty. If the Dems could just divorce themselves from wall street and dirty money, grow a spine and a set of cajones, and walk the walk, that’d be super.

Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States. He has brought the office down so low in such a short time. Other presidents have tried but none have come close to this.

This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.

A reminder: Trump 1.0 ordered the Afghanistan withdrawal, and Trump 2.0 granted the shooter asylum this past April. Trump 2.0 also dismantled the joint terrorism task force, and gutted our national security apparatus.

DOGE might officially be over, but that doesn’t change the fact that Musk’s goons pushed 7,000 Social Security workers out of their jobs, while dumping all of our private Social Security data on an insecure public server.

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if lunatic fascist Karoline Leavitt had something to do with her 11-year old nephew’s mother getting detained by ICE Gestapo right before Thanksgiving as a favor to her brother in order to get the mother deported to Brazil. Maybe that’s just me.

How unfortunate. Karoline's Leavett's nephew's mom is an illegal immigrant and a bit unstable. 😬👇

This is the world’s wheat belt, which feeds billions. Above 30C wheat yield drops by as much as 44%. Wars, lack of water and soil degradation bring us to the end game even faster. But hey, we have data centres and AI slop

Rare agreement from both sides of the divide.

The Trump admin wants to open offshore drilling along the CA and FL coasts, and both Newsom & DeSantis are calling it out as a threat to the environment, tourism and coastal communities.

If these two are sounding the alarm together, you know it’s bad.

Not every patriot can call out fascism like former NFL player Chris Kluwe.

But we EACH must do what we can to stand up for democracy instead of sucking up to tyrants.

James Comey and Letitia James both had their cases tossed. Call it what it is, a massive waste of taxpayer money so an unserious, con-artist president can stage revenge theater for MAGA. We’ve got real issues to deal with, not this clown show appeasement. What a waste of time.
