Fox News shrugs off Trump’s war on Christmas: www.mediamatters.org/fox-news/tru...
Trump called on Americans to accept less this holiday season. Fox thought that was hilarious.

The Pentagon’s new security strategy document “acknowledges the ideological incoherence of the president’s foreign policy instincts but tries to make it a virtue,” David Wallace-Wells writes.
Opinion | Trump’s National Security Strategy Memo Declares Global Culture War
The Trump administration’s 2025 National Security Strategy is a pivot to the agenda of online reactionaries.

The Trump admin gave states an ultimatum: Cooperate with the immigration crackdown, or lose your federal funding.

Oregon and 19 other states fought back — and won.

Then officials logged in to the grant website to accept the money, only to find the button to do so was disabled: propub.li/4a4Bsk5

Maybe instead of committing atrocities, we could just make the rich pay their fair share and have universal healthcare and affordable housing instead.

Idk, just spitballing here.

We are in a bizarre moment of diplomatic history. The purported "peace plan" that appeared a few days ago begins in Russian unreality and American weakness. Demanding everything of Ukraine and nothing of Russia, its purpose is imperialism and profiteering.

DC jury acquitted the Sandwich Guy. Lindsay Halligan can’t even bring an indictment because she’s not legit. Jeanine Pirro couldn't get a conviction because she’s incompetent.

As the judge pointed out, incompetent Pam Bondi completely screwed up the appointment of Halligan in violation of the law.

Trump wrongly indicted me. I’ll rightly impeach him.

Impeachment isn’t just an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent — but is it working?

Why did Trump’s post about 50-year mortgages anger conservatives – officials and voters alike – and why are they more of a hindrance than a solution to the housing crisis?

People are rising up and teaching each other how to resist and fight back, and it’s working.

And yeah, we’re seeing a whole lot of stupid ICE agents stumbling around like they own the place.

You cannot occupy a city and expect silence. The people who live there always answer back.
