The U.S. government has the ability to seize boats, sailors, and cargo without killing anyone. Trump just reminded us of that, in the same part of the world as the boat strikes.

ICYMI: The Navy has a squadron of EA-18G Growlers in Puerto Rico now. Growlers are highly specialized jets that have no use in "fighting narco-terrorism" and fishing boats.

All I want for Christmas is not going to war with Venezuela.

The Growlers are not a standard show of force, with the jets offering capabilities that would be key in any future strikes in the region.

If you make a billion dollars — or $500 million or even $100 million dollars — and you keep trying to make more, then there is something seriously wrong with you. It's a mental illness akin to hoarding or drug addiction.

The woman the media is desperate to cast as a kinder, gentler Nazi, is spending her last month in Congress trying to imprison those who support trans kids.
Marjorie Taylor Greene horse traded her vote on the NDAA for a floor vote for a felony ban on gender affirming care for trans youth that would criminalize parents and doctors for providing evidence based lifesaving care for their children.

According to a new court filing, the Trump administration has a six-page list of banned words that Head Start locations are forbidden from using when describing their programs.
Among the censored words: "disability," "race," "women," "trauma," "Gulf of Mexico." Short thread with the full list. 🧵

111 measles cases yet folks are still not getting vaccinated. Blame Trump. Blame RFKjr. Blame MAHA. Cod liver oil won’t help these kids.

“The health department deployed mobile health clinics to the area to provide MMR shots, but few people in the community took advantage.”
The measles outbreak in South Carolina is “accelerating” with no end in sight following Thanksgiving and other large gatherings, state health officials say.

The impact of ICE arrests is extending into America's child care system: It's reducing the number of immigrant child care workers available — and prompting U.S. mothers with young children to leave their jobs as they scramble for stable care. 19thnews.org/2025/12/ice-...

(WSJ) Fascinating study on the effect of immigrants in the US as to their income and the benefits they receive. Initially, they consume more benefits than taxes paid, but "it flips" and on average pay $21K in taxes more than benefits over 20 years, a clear benefit.

This has been the plan since the outset, to make a Sovereign Wealth Fund AKA slush fund. I have yet to see anyone explain where the proceeds from the tariffs are going, and I suspect it’s the same place.
