In my opinion the president shouldn't constantly be like "Holy shit did you guys see this?" and repeating a thing he kinda heard on TV. I don't think that should be mostly what the president does.
He issued a correction, proving why he needs to stfu and let the cops do their jobs.

It’s a a goddamned ongoing tragedy, not a reality TV show, primed for him to drop the big reveal.

Well-said. Recklessly dangerous.
I don’t see this as a case of lying — many people on social media believed it to be true.

I see this as a case of him being criminally neglegent which is far worse.

He could get someone killed.
I mean he lies about everything else, why not this, too?

Jasmine Crockett’s Senate bid is infuriating some colleagues.

“She might win a primary, but she ain't winning a general in Texas," said a senior House Dem.

Another House Dem told @axios.com: “Just look to see how many House members endorse her candidacy.” www.axios.com/2025/12/12/j...

WOW. @haleaziz.bsky.social with a new scoop: ICE now gets a running list of every person who is going to be taking a domestic flight inside the United States from the TSA and runs it through their database looking for targets. This explains the Babson College student's arrest.

There are only two situations where I've seen people actually use the term:

1. Lesbian parents when specifying which of the two of them gave birth

2. Trans men and non-binary people who have kids using that term *for themselves*

But Ana made it about her for no reason at all.

In the bitter cold, neighbors are gathered outside Lake Street Church for a vigil for ICE victims.

ICE continues to assault, harass, & harm Americans. In Minneapolis, incompetent tax payer funded ICE hit a pedestrian & pepper sprayed civilians from their vehicles.

This happened after ICE decided to go up & down a street demanding to see people's IDs, caused chaos & injuries, & then left.

just incredible optics here, the president yelling at you about how you should buy less and like it, three weeks before christmas, while standing in front of a bunch of stupefied moronic dipshits holding BIGGER PAYCHECKS signs
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

All cops
An ICE agent has been arrested for putting a woman in a chokehold and causing “serious physical harm”

Police said they had been called to the residence 22 times

It’s time we talk about what kind of men are attracted to being ICE agents

Hint: It’s men who would strangle a woman
ICE agent arrested, held on ‘no bond’ order at prosecutor’s request
Samuel Saxon is charged with felonious assault, strangulation and domestic violence.He pleaded not guilty to all counts.

Candace Owens’s bizarre conspiracy theories put Jews in danger.

Her fan base is enormous, diverse in many different ways, and they trust her immensely.

She is laser focused not on Palestine — as it may seem on the surface — but on spreading conspiracy theories rooted in ancient antisemitism.
