Please, please do a quick 2-5 minute daily rebuttal to the insanity of the day. You would be able to effectively communicate why the policies/ power grab is not good for 99.9% of Americans. We need you.

“Pete Hegseth happily releases a video after each strike... He recognizes when the American people see this video, they will be repulsed. It is basically the summary execution of two people clinging to wreckage.”

Economists see a lot of flaws in the delayed consumer price index report. cnb.cx/44W0XRt
Trust these numbers? Economists see a lot of flaws in delayed CPI report showing downward inflation
Thursday saw the release of a much lighter-than-expected inflation report for November, and economists are already questioning its significance.

Gupta: Just the way he presents himself. Whether it’s the hand—is there something happening with that hand? Is there an IV there that they’re trying to cover up? His pressurized, rambling, incoherent speech. When you take it all together, reasonable people are asking reasonable questions

Interesting to consider that if you were to go and deface the Kennedy center by removing Trump’s name, you’d be arrested and charged with a crime, but your act would be no more unlawful than what they’re doing right now.

If White House officials want a public discussion about private-sector job growth, that’s fine, but they may not like where the conversation ends up. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Thursday night, there were major developments in both the Brown University mass shooting, where the gunman was identified & found dead & the prosecution of Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan, which resulted in a conviction.

I respectfully disagree with the jury’s verdict in the Judge Hannah Dugan case.

The trial evidence showed that Judge Dugan did not obstruct ICE agents from arresting an undocumented immigrant.

Let’s see what happens on appeal. Meanwhile, our support for Judge Dugan continues.

Speaker Mike Johnson says his entire worldview comes from the Bible.

But he’s about to kick 2 million Texans off their healthcare right before Christmas.

If you aren’t loving your neighbor, then keep Jesus’ name out of your mouth.

There’s a big difference between an economy that’s growing more slowly and one that’s stalled. A stall means job creation barely keeps up with population growth—or not even that. That’s why unemployment is drifting up and folks can feel the ground shifting under them.

Muting a Black woman to claim the vote was unanimous is so incredibly on the nose
The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Do they really think people are that stupid?
FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you

LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times

F: Not a 600% cut

L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now
