The programming isn't predictive. But the stupidity is.
December 7, 1941 was the catalyst the for the USA, the United Kingdom, and the unconquered free armies of Europe to begin waging a long bloody campaign to defeat fascism. December 7, 2025 sees the United States under fascist control. But unconquered Americans will resist until fascism crumbles.

Europe needs to wake up from its slumber. Appeasing Trump is courting disaster.
"It is long past time for Europe to realize that, when it comes to the Russia-Ukraine war and the continent’s security, it is, at best, alone. At worst, it now faces two adversaries: Russia in the east and... the US in the west." foreignpolicy.com/2025/12/05/n...

There's a good chance this is the correct viewpoint. But it requires imputing an almost noble motive to Roberts and one other bad person. It also requires accepting the Supreme Court still has legitimacy. While the Court does have power, it certainly lacks legitimacy.

Putin will never give Trump permission to wage war in Venezuela unless he gets something big in return. That big thing would be Ukraine. The president is a Russian asset. The president is a Russian asset. The president is a Russian asset.

Reminder: The 13th Amendment abolishing slavery cleared the House of Representatives on January 31, 1865, by just 2 votes. And that was when the southern states of the Confederacy were still in the Confederacy, and, thus, barred from the House.

How long before the EU protects itself from the existential threat that is Elon Musk by seizing his businesses in Europe and arresting him the next time he sets foot on European soil? His fortune is greater than the GDP of many nations. And he has declared war on peaceful Europe. No time to lose.

This is why Democrats must hammer Trump on Republican Nazi, white-supremacist fascism. If the economy improves, then Trump's numbers will go up. At least according to this polling logic. So forget the economy. It's the fascism.
American approval ratings of President Donald Trump have fallen slightly, according to a new analysis of public polling compiled by The New York Times.

The reason? A greater share of poll respondents blamed the president’s handling of the economy.

“Impeachment is a distraction” might be my favorite take because this is the most singularly unproductive Congress in modern history.

Literally the only things they’ve done is fund fascism and give crypto companies handouts.

Vote harder everyone. That’s going to fix our problems for sure this time.
Trump is underwater on every issue and voters (especially independents) are fed up with Republicans working around the clock to enrich billionaires while refusing to lift a finger to make life more affordable for the rest of us. Let’s build a blue tsunami for the midterms: indivisible.org/groups

Humor, perhaps, is more necessary now than ever before. After all, those resisting American Nazism, have little to celebrate. We're not winning. But we can, and will, win once we accept that persons like Newsom are jesters; not the leaders we need. Being good at social media doesn't = resisting.

No. Democrats "loudly, angrily, personally, relentlessly..." attacking them should have started years ago. The Trump 6 must be removed. If not by impeachment then by making their daily lives miserable. Yes. Vought wants to traumatize gov employees. Let's start with Roberts and his co-conspirators.

It's beginning to sound like the media is accepting the lawfulness of the initial strike and murder of the boaters who didn't survive long enough to be mopped up as they were struggling to survive. The whole strike, and all the strikes, are war crimes.
BERMAN: Did you see any evidence of them trying to use a radio in the video you saw?

TOM COTTON: Well I saw lots of evidence of them standing on the boat that had been capsized

BERMAN: That wasn't my question. Did you see any evidence?

COTTON: No, I didn't

Let's not fall into the trap of focusing on the murder of survivors in the water as being *the* war crime. Accepting that framing would be a victory for Trump. The reality is, the act of attacking speed boats and murdering their crews, whether in the water or in the boat, is the war crime.

Newsom is good at social media but terrible at resisting. Remember his kind words about Kirk? “The best way to honor Charlie’s memory is to continue his work: engage with each other, across ideology, through spirited discourse." And that shameful podcast. Normalizing is collaborating.

Despite what the GOP says, COVID vaccines don't kill people. In fact, they actually save lives. Too bad Republicans put much more faith in their feelings than in science and evidence based medicine.

The ACLU and superstar attorneys are doing important work. But there comes a time to put down the law books and take up pitchforks.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court ruled to allow Texas to proceed with using a racially discriminatory voting map.

Voters of color deserve to be heard – not silenced.

There are nearly two million Catholics in uniform. This is a very big deal. Fully expect Trump to unleash his demented psychopathic fury on this archbishop.

Stop talking about expansion and reform. The Trump 6 will never let that happen. Expansion was virtually impossible even in the before times. We need resistance. Not "No Kings", but resistance that makes Trump and Roberts wake up in the middle of the night, sweating in fear.
What's changed is that the Court has become more transparent in its corruption. There's not even an argument here beyond the implicit one which is: how do you expect us to hold the House without those seats?
#BREAKING: Over dissents from the three democratic appointees, #SCOTUS puts Texas's new House maps back into effect for (and, presumably, through) the 2026 midterms.

The three Democratic appointees, in an opinion by Justice Kagan, dissent.

I'll post the ruling shortly.

What was the error? Climate change will cause a 17% global income decrease by 2050, instead of a 19% decrease. Look for the Trump regime to use this flawed paper to argue against climate change and to attack science.

The Trump crisis is a product of the Constitution. The framers (wealthy, white, male property owners) didn't want the masses to rule them. So they drafted an anti-majoritarian document that enshrined minority rule and slavery. They probably wouldn't like Trump. But mainly because he's a rude lout.
This is my big soap box. We gave the presidency too much power with the PATRIOT Act, extrajudicial drone strikes, indefinite detention and the creation of the Department of Homeland Security. Trump is just using executive authority Congress gave to the presidency after 9/11 to maximum effect.
Congress, in my opinion has ceded too much of its authority to the Executive Branch in the last nearly quarter of a century. What the administration has been doing is simply part the Post 9/11 legacy. It’s got to stop. I say this as a GWOT era veteran.

The New York Post is a mainstream Stormfront. Also, its white supremacist editors are too stupid to understand that they can make hay out of an immigrant caused death only because immigrants are more law abiding and commit fewer crimes than native citizens. It's not news when a white man kills.

I don't know much about NYC politics. But I do know the Democratic establishment will always act to ward off real change and to thwart bold, progressives wherever they appear.

The New York Times is busy normalizing the worst people on the planet. Presumably, had the DealBook Summit, existed in 1939, proponents of Hitler would have been well represented.
