Q: Officials say the suspect in the DC shooting was vetted & it came up clean

TRUMP: He went cuckoo. He went nuts. There was no vetting

Q: Actually, your DOJ IG says there was thorough vetting of Afghans. So why blame Biden?

TRUMP: You're just asking questions because you're a stupid person

Prince Charles was wrong to compare Vladimir Putin to Hitler, Nigel Farage has said, after the heir to the throne was reported to have attacked Russia's annexation of Crimea.

What the “Department of War” posted today is not normal. Publicizing an internal referral memo on social media before any review has occurred undercuts the neutrality expected in military justice and risks unlawful command influence. That should alarm anyone who cares about due process. #holdfast

Lots of ppl talking about how this is 4d chess, and just a way to get concessions from AB and let the failure of any pipeline fall solely on Smith's shoulders. Even if that's true, and that's a mighty big if, we need to talk about how shitty and unseemly it is for our PM to play games like this.
Mark Carney managed to trade a pipeline that will never get built for meaningful progress on industrial carbon pricing and electricity interties — both of which will get more wind and solar built.

Remember when people thought he wasn't good at politics? www.nationalobserver.com/2025/11/27/o...

Okay, this is just silly. Is the next step to bar BBC staff from reporting on anything Democrats say, since it won't be fawning approval of Trump and therefore even the reporting of it could be construed as somehow defamatory? Trump is a spoiled child and should not be indulged.

Trump's speech about the shooting in DC veered into him attacking the Somali community in Minnesota, which of course had nothing to do with the shooting. Gives away his bigoted game.

⚡️Russia has 'no say' over whether Ukraine can join NATO, Rutte says.

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said on Nov. 26 that Ukraine's accession to the alliance depends on unanimous agreement among member states — not on Russian demands.

Same suggestion a my last post, just a different failed legacy news outlet.

My only reaction is once again to suggest people support independent, pro-democracy media. If you are inclined, you can start with Democracy Docket. Subscribing is free. Premium membership is $10mo. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0
This is nuts!

Why is WAPO writing up anyone’s speculation about who the suspect might be?

I get that Laura’s statements and actions are at times newsworthy given her influence on Trump, but no one’s speculation — outside of a government official’s — should be written up this way.

I need everybody to read this and understand what’s going on. These are spouses of US citizens in the country legally. They have entry clearance and green cards, they’ve passed background checks and have no criminal records. ICE is taking them anyway.
