Hey that's great and all, but I think think we've made it abundantly clear that we all want to die from curable diseases in order to own the libs.

I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside.

What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there?

I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

I just learned that one incentive to join ICE is student loan forgiveness.

I think that's absolutely outrageous.

That's like saying if you enroll in an MFA for poetry studies, they'll pay for you gym membership. It simply isn't a real scenario.

It’s pretty simply, really. If you save your parking space after a snowstorm in Boston w/ a chair, AND someone from your past returns to your life and sits upon it, that space is yours in perpetuity w/ or without a space saver in place. Hope this clears up any confusion.

Let’s say this is my podcast, & I truly had no clue I was platforming bad dudes w/ ill intentions. When I see this has happened, I shut the fucking thing down, explain that I’m clearly a bad judge of character, and I devote my time and money to various charity efforts. Anything else ya gotta wonder!

This is now without question the biggest politico-financial scandal in United States history. Teapot Dome was trivial in comparison.
I was a little late to catch up with this WSJ kleptocracy story. We already knew Sheikh Tahnoon dropped $2b on World Liberty Financial to get Trump to let UAE import advanced chips. Now we learn Tahnoon also purchased 49 percent of World Liberty Financial.

‘Spy Sheikh’ Bought Secret Stake in Trump Company
$500 million investment for 49% of World Liberty came months before U.A.E. won access to tightly guarded American AI chips.

Hey, you know what should 100% be part of DEMs demands for passing the funding measures? An agreement that ICE/DHS will not be working the streets of any city or town during an election day.
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana) said that he is “confident” he will have enough support from Republicans in the House conference to end the partial government shutdown by Tuesday.

Speaker Mike Johnson says he’s prepared to pass funding measures, already approved by the Senate, with the sole support of House Republicans.

History is crazy.

A presidential candidate is assassinated in 1968 and you can draw a direct line, 58 years later, to measles making a huge comeback in 2026.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

Since 2022, I've often thought about how positively weird it is, even for this freak, that Ivana Trump was buried in an unmarked grave at a Trump golf course. Now we get this piece of testimony in today's JE files.

Excavate all of his golf courses immediately.
Can the state of California search this golf course?

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.

But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

There's a scene in Waiting for Guffman where Catherine O'Hara's character explains what she thinks "less is more" acting is, and it's completely insane and never explained or referenced again in the movie. I think it's so brilliant and funny. Rest in peace to a comedic genius.

BIG news from @bloomberg.com, which confirms that ICE has gone ahead and *purchased* multiple commercial warehouses with the aim of converting them into mass detention camps.

This is likely to be the big detention story of 2026 — literal warehousing of people.

Plans for such centers and jails in nearly two dozen communities have sparked protests over suitability, proximity to homes and schools.

From here on out, every single attack or murder will be "they asked for it" or "they faked it." Every one. Until there's a change or they face serious consequences, this is the playbook. I'm trying to skip the part where it shocks me.
Ron Johnson on Ilhan Omar getting attacked: "Let's talk about how crazy this is. Had that been a Republican member of Congress and an illegal immigrant spraying something at them, in Minneapolis what would probably happen is they would release that illegal immigrant."

Every jerk off advocating for white nationalism, and all its dipshit li'l disguises, looks like a cartoon drawing from a pamphlet warning of the dangers of incest.
