Pretty convincing evidence here that the Trump administration was planning to jailbreak and provide asylum for Bolsonaro -- and that Trump inadvertently revealed the plan.

And this, as the now-cliche goes, would have been a paralyzing scandal for any other administration.
Trump appears to blurt out secret plan, not knowing it's already a bust

Always a nice touch when I read a story about the Trumpian devolution of American democracy written by the reporter who started Emailghazi.

This reporter will get vile death threats and may need security just for doing her job. Not acceptable.

The FBI wants to interview six Democratic military veterans who urged servicemembers to follow the law. Here’s a radical idea:

The Democratic members should simply refuse to cooperate with such madness. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Federal law enforcement has taken an interest in the “illegal orders” video. Should the relevant lawmakers cooperate with the probe?

If politics are on the table for Thanksgiving and you want to find common ground -- a majority of all Americans, across party lines, support raising taxes on massive corporations and billionaires (and polling has shown this to be true for years).

And yet the BBC took issue with the apt description that this is the most corrupt administration this nation has ever seen.
Now here’s the kind of news you drop going into a long holiday weekend. Maybe no one will notice. 🤡

Have any news outlets that ran scathing front page headlines, op-eds and editorials about Biden pardoning Hunter admitted that they were wrong after we've seen Trump maliciously prosecute Comey, James, McIver etc?

numbers like this encourage House Rs to resign.

they also help with recruiting. Peltola is a lot more likely to jump in the senate race if she thinks midterms are going to be a huge route and she can win. 1

I always assumed the risk of the pope getting assertive in American politics were too high, but now that the Holy Father is American and very much a man of these times, I can see Bob starting to make moves on the freak-ass too-online para-Catholic set in the near future.

Immigration is necessary if you want to have nice things, and anyone who says otherwise is selling something (fascism).
November 25, 2025 at 10:46 PM
"Immigration is good, actually" could be a very easy message to land in an environment where Americans increasingly just look at Trump and think "what the fuck is wrong with this guy's whole deal?"
I think immigration makes this country great and I don't care what anyone else thinks.
This is also a place being rhetorically pro-immigration could be good. "I think immigration makes this country great and I don't care what anyone else thinks."
