Dems win mayoral race in Miami, social media ban begins for Australian kids, Trump calls affordability a hoax, and I forgot my notebook and pen at home so it’s on a random piece of paper today
Tuesday December 9, 2025 Miami Elected Eileen Higgins, their First Democratic Mayor in nearly 3 decades. Early results show her winning by 18 points. Social Media ban for People 16 and under begins in Australia, children will no longer be allowed on Facebook, TikTok, Reddit, Kick, Threads, Twitch, YouTube and other sites. Companies will face fines if they do not comply. Trump called affordability a hoax and tried to convince people in Pennsylvania that inflation isn't real before going on a racist rant. He singled out Afghanistan, Haiti, and Somalia, all immigrant groups that federal agents have been ramping up attacks on. But even his supporters admitted they're struggling with high prices of housing, food, healthcare, and transportation. (I left notebook at home oops!)

European leaders unite with Ukraine, who’s gonna buy Warner Bros, Cambodia and Thailand are fighting, and Trumps fight against wind energy loses in court.
Monday December 8, 2025 Ukrainian President Zelensky, British PM Keir Starmer, French President Macron, and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz met at 10 Downing St to strengthen Ukraines position as the US peace plan currently mirrors Russia’s wish list including surrendering territory, disarming Ukraine, and never joining NATO. European leaders have agreed to support Ukraine and continue pressuring Russia. Trump ally and billionaire David Ellison is trying to launch a hostile takeover of Warner Bros Discovery with his company Paramount Skydance, after Warner Bros announced last week that Nettlix would be buying the company. Tens of thousands of people are evacuating the border region as Cambodia and Thailand have begun fighting, each blaming the other for firing the First shots. Federal judge blocks Trumps executive order, blocking wind energy projects.

Trump is mad his bribery pardon didn’t work and the GOP plan for healthcare is poor people die.
Sunday December 7,2025 “Such a lack of LOYALTY” Trump posted a rant online against Rep Henry Cueller who he pardoned on federal bribery charges, and then the congressman decided to run for reelection as a Democrat. It’s clear Trump thought he could use a pardon to get a new GOP vote. The GOP plan for health care seem to be prices go up January 1st and POOR PEORE DIE. The Government Shutdown being over means Dems currently have no political leverage as the end at the year approaches, and without action rate hikes go into effect in January. Multiple publications have both GOP and Dems saying they don't think anything will happen until January 30,2026.

Trump wants us to celebrate his birthday and Hegseth doesn’t care about war crimes if Trump is ordering them
Saturday December 6 2025 Trump's birthday added to the free admission days for National Parks, as they remove both Martin Luther King Jr Day and Juneteenth from the free holidays for 2026. “The raw and rank racism here stinks to high heaven summarized Cornell Brooks. Many volunteer groups use MLK Jr Day to help clear national parks so the racism will also reduce the park experience for many visitors who benefit from volunteer work. Hegseth defended the boat strikes even as congress investigates them as war crimes, today saying "Trump can and will take decisive military action as he sees fit..."

What’s shaking Nevada? Not an earthquake apparently.
SCOTUS splits along party lines to allow the GOP to gerrymander Texas.
Hegseth’s team is questioned about war crimes while a report showing signal messages about missions put soldiers at risk, and they continued to bomb boats
Thursday December 4, 2025 Whats shaking? Nothing... At 8:06 am across Nevada and California the USGS MyShake app alerted people to a 5.9 earthquake, however there was no earthquake. But multiple sensors had recorded something which has many wonder what was shaking? Scotus allows Texas to use gerrymandered maps until the court can debate the case, giving the GOP an advantage even after a lower court said the maps were illegal. All 3 liberal justices dissented. The highly partisan trend has many angry over the lack of impartial justices in the highest court. More states will likely follow. Admiral Frank Bradley testified to congress about the double tap strikes on boats as congress questions who knew about the bombing of survivors. Also today the Pentagon released a report that concluded Hegseth’s use of Signal to message war plans put soldiers and the mission at risk. While Hegseth and his team faced questions about the legality of the bombings and communication, they also bombed another boat and tweeted about it with a conservative activist.

Check your cheese and watch out for ICE
Wednesday December 3, 2025 The FDA has ordered 260,000 cases of shredded cheese recalled due to metal fragment contamination. Earlier this year Trump cut 3,500 FDA jobs making work harder for existing food inspection staff. The recalled cheese is sold by many store brand labels including Target, Walmart and Aldi. Federal agents began ICE raids in New Orleans. Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino who led raids in LA, Chicago, and most recently in Charlotte, spent today posing for pictures in the French Quarter and going to raids in hardware store parking lots. New Orleans had a huge influx of latino construction workers after hurricane Katrina, and they were essential to helping rebuild the city. "Somalians should be out of here" - Trump in the oval office making racist comments as his admin prepares raids for Minnesota which has a large Somalian diaspora.

Trump sleeps in a cabinet meeting
Tennessee’s special election saw the GOP win a seat but lose 13 points compared to last year, making the GOP worried
Sam Altman issued a code red at ChatGPT
Tuesday December 2, 2025 … it's giving Tuesday. RIP Claude 1995 - 2025 Trump began a cabinet meeting critizizing media coverage of his stamina before dozing off during the meeting at multiple times when Secretaries of Agriculture, Education, and State were presenting. Republican Matt Van Epp's 9 pt win in a very gerrymandered district in Tennessee is worrying the GOP as Trump won the district with 22 pt lead. This double digit swing makes it likely that formerly safe GOP districts will actually need to work to convince voters, as gerrymandering might not be enoughto hold onto the house. Open Al CEO Sam Altman has told staff "We are at a critical time for Chat GPT" and declared a code red for the company, as Google's newest Al Gemini 3 out performed them on a various benchmarks which could cause users to move off the platform which is still in a loss-making development phase.

Mamdani and Sanders join striking Starbucks workers while the military and Trump’s team passes around the blame for war crimes
Monday December 1, 2025 World AIDs Day. (Sketch of Sanders and Mamdani holding strike signs with cups crossed out next to a red cup rebellion sign) Mayor Elect Mandani and Senator Bernie Sanders joined striking Starbuck workers today to bring attention to the unions demands for better scheduling and a living wage. Also today New York City's Department of Consumer and Worker Protection announced Starbucks will pay $35 million to workers along with a $3.4 million civil penalty, and to comply with the city's fair workweek law moving forward. Who gets blame for war crimes? While Trump has ordered bombing without congression authorization, Hegseth has said he wants max lethality in speeches to the military, they seem to be setting up Admiral Frank Bradley to take the fall for the double strike attack on Venezuelan boats. All while building up military presence in the region without congress.

Sunday November 30, 2025 "This rises to the level of war crime if it's true" - Senator Kaine “Kill Everybody” -Pete Hegseth Senators from the Armed Services committee have said they will investigate the order reported by the Washington Post. Bombing survivors of a shipwreck at sea is a very clear cut example of a war crime that every person ever enlisted would know to be a war crime without legal review, making it cut across party lines in disgust unlike the question of bombing drug boats (also illegal without congressional authorization but could be legal if they said so) “If you want to have it released, I'll release it.” “It was just an MRI, what part of the body? It wasn't the brain because I took a cognitive test and I aced it” -Trump Trump’s comments on his MRI are raising questions on his health and why the testing was needed and where it was.

Thursday November 27, 2025 Thanksgiving... Turkey day... or Türkiye if you're Pope Leo going on your first international trip as pope. He warned of "ambitions and choices that trample on justice and peace" that are destabilising the world. I am lucky and privileged, and thankful for my health, family, friends, and the abundance I enjoy in access to food, housing, mobility and more. Due to wars, ICE raids, police and military violence, wealth inequality and more so many don’t have the ability to sit with loved ones for a meal from DC to Gaza... Fate gifted me the luck to have my family close and safe and I do not take it far granted. One of the National Guard troops shot yesterday died and Trump has already called to further restrict immigration and increase troops in DC. The shooter was an Afghan national who worked with the CIA and apparently had mental health issues after their joint operations and witnessing war crimes, but the motive for the shooting is still unknown.

Drawing of the Day: a shooting in DC and what we know so far, and the large fire in a Hong Kong tower continues to burn
Wednesday November 26,2025 Two National Guard members from West Virginia were shot while deployed in Washington DC. Trump has called the shooting an act of terror and said he will increase efforts to deport migrants and Afghan nationals. The National Guard deployment in D.C. began after Elon Musk's DOGE staffer nicknamed Big Balls was mugged in D.C. in August (an account disputed by teens who said he attacked them) leading to over 2000 National Guard troops deployed in DC. The unit from West Virginia of 300 troops was set te return home but 160 volunteered to stay. Last week a judge ruled the deployment illegal but gave the admin 21 days to remove the troops. For the last 4 months DC residents have been occupied by troops and subjected to kidnappings and raids. The shooters motives are unknown. A mega fire in a Hong Kong skyscraper has killed at least 41 peope, caused evacuations of several nearby buildings, and is still burning as fire fighters work to put it out. The buildings in the Wang Fuk Court complex have seen the fire spread from 1 to 7 of the 8 buildings. The fire began on a scaffolding outside one of the 32 story buildings, and spread.
