Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

Get out in your local community and volunteer. Do something everyday to make your community better in some way.

There were better shows on Netflix when it cost $10 a month

This guy is a loser who mentally gets off on transgression and showing people he can’t be pushed around because his daddy didn’t love him and his mommy is his enabler

Shout out to the media who participated in the most obvious misdirection ever

This. If dems ever get a lick of power back they better run fast and not worry about polls shit bc it’s going to take decades to recover from Trump’s damage.

It mattered.

I dedicated years of my life to reporting on January 6 and exposing what happened. I was there that day, co-wrote a book, and published a series of major stories on my own, for Rolling Stone, and for TPM.

I hope it mattered. I hope history will remember and understand what happened.

I’ve been scouring used book stores and garage sales, I want physical copies of everything I love. We used to think the internet was forever, it’s not.

when you have anti-DEI proponents openly going after black military officers for recruiting from HBCUs and suing schools for their black and Hispanic enrollment *even after the schools ended any racial preferences* then the only honest label for these people is "segregationist"

It’s pretty extraordinary how you can turn the entire government over to billionaires and get called “populist” just because you resent scientists and integrated schools.

Texas governor buys billboards warning migrants they'll be raped if they illegally cross border 'How much did you pay to have your daughter raped?' reads one of the signs, which will appear in Mexico and Central America.

In a sane political environment, this latest despicable stunt by Greg Abbott would be driving national outrage for days to come. Threatening immigrants and asylum seekers with rape is not what a civilized society does.

As for GOP propaganda about 'rape trees', that's pure invention - or projection

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: The message I’m hearing from people across Canada is this: they’re not afraid of you. They know you’re a convicted felon. They know that the people you’re bringing in to run your, let’s call it an “organization” rather than a government, are grifters, thieves, and thugs.

German Officials Search for Motive in Christmas Market Attack At least five people were killed and more than 200 others injured after a driver rammed an SUV into a crowded Christmas market in eastern Germany.

The doctor had an active social media presence that included postings criticizing Germany for what he called the authorities' tolerance of radical Islam, German news media reported. A security official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter, said that those reports were accurate.

In his social media, the man also expressed support for the anti-immigrant Alternative for Germany party and reposted comments by party leaders warning of the threat of Islamic law being imposed in Germany.

Any time the perpetrator of a terrorist attack has a social media profile that says very directly that they’re a far right accelerationist, the headline is like “BAFFLED COPS PONDER THE RIDDLE OF SUSPECT’S MOTIVATION”

Protestors gathered in Damascus, Syria for unity and calling for a secular, law abiding, and plural state. Syrian actor Maxim Khalil in front of thousands of people in Umayyad Square spoke up in support for the rights of women and girls: "The Syrian woman deserves to take on all roles”

Glad I’m not the only one already sobbing!

I’ve had the time of my life these last almost two years watching grainy live streams with all of you! Here’s to the traditions, the friendship bracelets, memories and we made! 🫶

The rebels have liberated hundreds of women, toddlers and babies held in Sednaya prison.

They've also released hundred of prisoners some of which were tortured to the point of forgetting their own identity, others held for decades for speaking out against the regime. #freeSyria

Remember, Tulsi Gabbard claimed Assad didn’t use chemical weapons, it was “the rebels.”

Her confirmation hearing will be brutal, if she even makes it to there

🚨 Breaking: Assad’s government has fallen, and he has fled Damascus.

Sending thoughts and prayers to Tulsi Gabbard in this difficult time for her.

When they talk about privatizing Veterans’ care and Medicare, they mean allowing companies to provide healthcare for a profit.

But how do companies make those profits? By *denying* care to many who need it.

Don’t get fooled by the “privatization” label. It means “for profit” and YOU are the cost.

Fill the Swamp? Trump’s appointments are putting lobbyists and industry leaders into positions of immense government power.

Trump appointing industry lobbyists as well as CEOs who will now be able to regulate their own companies (or not) was utterly predictable, so much so that hardly anyone will remark upon it. Oligarchy has arrived

Chinese hack of global telecom providers is ‘ongoing,’ officials warn Officials from the FBI and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency say the major Chinese hack began in late spring, and they are strongly urging Americans to use encrypted communications.

This is quite possibly the biggest story of the year that nobody is talking about. www.politico.com/news/2024/12...

a non trivial number of the founders were themselves involve in elaborate land speculating schemes that were little better than fraud

This is going to save hospitals a lot of money !

Thou shalt not pretend that wanting everyone to have healthcare is “radical.”
