In a social media post announcing the move, Trump drew parallels between the case against Cuellar and his own legal troubles, which he decried as a partisan crusade by former President Joe Biden.
Trump Pardons Texas Democrat, Wife Who Faced Bribery Charges
President Donald Trump pardoned US Representative Henry Cuellar and his wife of federal corruption charges, a gesture to a Texas Democrat often at odds with his own party on key issues.

The only reliable data we are going to get on this stuff now comes from the private sector. bsky.app/profile/atru...
🚨 CNBC on latest jobs numbers: "A big miss on ADP payrolls. The private payroll company saying private payrolls shed 32,000 workers in Nov. That's the 4th negative number in past 6 months. The estimate was for +40,000, so the street was off ... this may be coming from being hammered by the tariffs"

Cold Moon
Super Full Moon in Gemini

The last full moon before the Solstice, a time of introspection, renewal, and the opportunity to reflect on the past year as you get ready for the new year.

I doubt this will work. The 11th circuit ordered Judge Cannon to have this issue RESOLVED in 90 days time, which expires January 2nd. So unless she wants to rule on Trump’s motion to intervene and hear all argument by then, she can’t really delay past January 2nd here unless the 11th circuit allows
NEW: President Trump is urging Judge Aileen Cannon to keep Jack Smith's final report secret indefinitely.

Trump has no real peace plan. Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are in Russia just to make business deals with the Russians to enrich themselves and their friends in exchange for selling out Ukraine and NATO countries.

IN State Rep. Ben Smaltz, author of HB1032 — the bill to redraw congressional maps, rig our elections & diminish Hoosier representation — admitted he “only considered political advantage” when drafting the legislation.

GOP-led House Elections Committee just approved the bill.

This timing makes a lot more sense now, doesn’t it?

Adm. Alvin Holsey resigned in October as commander of U.S. Southern Command right after flagging concerns about those U.S. military strikes on “suspected” drug boats in the Caribbean.

He served for 37 years.

Oh please—Lutnick acting like tariffs are some magic dial. “Suppliers just eat it”? Give me a break. That’s billionaire fantasy economics. You jack tariffs to 15% and guess who pays? Regular people. Not the distributors, not the CEOs — YOU. It’s a con dressed up as policy. SAD!

Netanyahu continues to starve and kill the people of Gaza. Putin is pretending to negotiate peace while attacking Ukraine. Trump is randomly killing Venezuelan's. They have no desire for peace. It is how they stay in power. Netanyahu, Trump and Putin are now the leaders of the new axis of evil.

Putin: ‘Russia is ready to keep fighting until the last Ukrainian dies.’

Western politicians & press: ‘Peace talks have stalled…’

Russia has zero interest in peace. Calling Kremlin demands for Ukrainian surrender ‘peace talks’ is just another way of spreading their propaganda.
