The previous modern standard for murdering people en masse while effecting an arrest warrant involved members of a Waco religious cult (76), or group home occupants (11) in West Philadelphia or the Chicago abode of some Blank Panthers (2 dead, more wounded). Trump now holds the record.
in how many "law enforcement operations" are damn near 100 people killed?

@rephuffman.bsky.social you are my rep: please work with Ro Khanna and Bernie to bring War Powers Resolutions daily blocking any military action. California is against war.
Rep. Ro Khanna is urging Congress to invoke its war powers “every day this month” to block Trump from invading six more countries he has threatened, as many lawmakers stay silent on the widely condemned Venezuela attack.
Khanna: Congress Must Stop Trump From Invading 6 Other Countries He’s Threatened
Many U.S. lawmakers have remained mum about the attack on Venezuela, despite international condemnation.

Miller is a lunatic. Why doesn’t Tapper push him harder?
MILLER: The US is using its military to secure our interests unapologetically in our hemisphere. We're a superpower. It's absurd we'd allow a nation in our backyard to become a supplier of resources to our adversaries

TAPPER: Sovereign countries shouldn't be able to do what they want?

Anyone else would have been put in handcuffs already. The EU must act here and bring criminal charges against xAI executives. An example must be set that this will not be tolerated.

EU Says 'Seriously Looking' Into Musk's Grok AI Over Sexual Deepfakes Of Minors
The European Commission said Monday it is "very seriously looking" into complaints that Elon Musk's AI tool Grok is being used to generate and disseminate sexually explicit childlike images.

F Elon. Stop using Twitter, people!
One example of how Grok is being used to target women. Swedish Deputy Prime Minister Ebba Busch being sexualised, degraded, and humiliated step-by-step by Grok. All the images accurately reflect the prompts provided.

I agree the Republican Party has got us to where we are today. Vote every single one of them out.
yep. i can identify any number of structural issues but at the end of the day the basic problem is the republican party. this has been apparent for at least 20 years. it is also an incredibly unpopular observation to make among “serious” people.
Right.

If you want a good explanation of why the American system of government worked well enough for 200 years and then suddenly stopped, it's because Republicans in Congress suddenly started letting their partisan interests COMPLETELY override their institutional interests

Read this amazing piece tying together recent threads and actions. The US Republican Admin is going to try to flex its power while it can. We need to act now to stop them.
NEW: A mass propaganda event is about to engulf the US news cycle and what, if anything, survives it will be a lesson for our times.

But it’s what the rest of the world does now that’s key. When someone tells you who they are, believe them.

Let me be very clear: tomorrow morning and EVERY DAY THIS WEEK, call your Reps and Senators whether Dem, Republican or Independent. Express your outrage at Trump’s imperial and illegal actions against sovereign nations. TELL THEM to convene. To hold up everything. Hold up $.

Per WASH POST, Stephen Miller will play an “elevated role” in Venezuela (what could go wrong!) and Machado won’t be president because she accepted the Nobel Peace Prize Trump wants (yes, seriously)

Couldn’t make it up if we tried

It’s hard to believe a president would time an illegal military attack to distract the public’s attention, but today is the statutory deadline for DOJ to release its report on the Epstein file production. Maybe it is just a coincidence.

Yes, this is exactly the time to demand Democrats "do something."

They can denounce Trump's actions as unconstitutional. They can state that he must be impeached and removed. They can make clear that all involved will be held accountable.

These are the core duties of a role they all signed up for.

babe wake up, they're doing insider trading on war crimes
“What appears to be a newly created account appeared to invest $30,000 Friday in Maduro's exit. After Maduro went into custody Saturday morning, that same investor netted $436,759.61.”
Someone made $400K by predicting Maduro's capture. Here's what happened
The winnings come as the rules governing prediction markets are still evolving.

Elon Musk's accomplishments over the last year include starving thousands of people to death (and laughing about it) and creating Hitler AI that undresses children (and laughing about it). Is it time to do something about billionaires yet?

Agreed: this should be on the front page of every newspaper, reporting to people the details of what he actually said in those 200 posts. Picture the Prime Minister of Great Britain doing this and staying in power.
How are these fits of presidential incontinence never covered as their own news events in NYT? Hours of sick hateful bile from the curdled joyless leader of the Christian nationalists sitting in the ruins of the tinsel trimmed White House he’s demolishing — seems like a story to me.

Every Democrat running for office needs to promise investigations and full prosecutions from top to bottom, remove its funding bloat then break up the agency and distribute its core remaining useful functions across other agencies.
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.

Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.

"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.

"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

Our president is literally insane. He has posted over 100 times today: death threats, attacks, insults and deranged rambling. What an a—hole. Imagine a friend of yours posted 100 times on Christmas attacking imaginary enemies. Ugh. I’m looking forward to the upward spiral out of this in 2026!
Sorry did he just threaten Democrats with death again? Not sure what else “enjoy your last Christmas” means
Trump: “Merry Christmas to all, including the many Sleazebags who loved Epstein, gave him bundles of money, went to his Island, attended his parties, & thought he was the greatest guy on earth, only to ‘drop him like a dog’ when things got too HOT … Enjoy what may be your last Merry Christmas!”
