Trump’s America.

Mubashir is a 20-year-old Minneapolis resident and a U.S. citizen. ICE assaulted him and grabbed him off the street anyway.

Cruelty and incompetence, and an unlawful detention. A kidnapping. ICE gets to do this with zero accountability.

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed.

Getting big money out of politics.

Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages.

If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

Do it. Take these to another grand jury. Then a 2nd and a 3rd, until we get a breaking news story about how much you suck at this. And if you do manage to get a true bill, we can watch you lose again in pretrial motions. Do it! I live to watch you lose! www.politico.com/news/2025/12...

A landmark trial in Italy of Chinese crime gangs has suffered so many mishaps that a senior prosecutor suspects it’s being sabotaged to protect their grip on Europe’s fashion industry.
Is sabotage unraveling the trial of Chinese crime gangs in Italian fashion?
The many mishaps that have occurred — from the disappearance of documents to the resignation of interpreters — have led a senior prosecutor to suspect so.

This was a fellow human put in harm’s way for no good reason. Her death is a tragedy. May it strengthen our resolve to defy this depraved and lawless regime.
Sarah Beckstrom's ex-boyfriend told NBC News she dreamed of becoming an FBI special agent.

She didn't want to deploy to D.C.

"She hated it. She cried about it."

But she started visiting monuments and museums and started enjoying it.

May she rest in peace.

As expected, the US blew off its UN Universal Periodic Review (UPR) today. This was the first time that a UN member state completely disregarded its obligations to cooperate w/ the UPR human rights mechanism. The US was given another chance, but what's the point? www.miragenews.com/un-rights-co...
