It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

After buying it for $18.8 billion, Walgreens' new private equity owner has eliminated paid holidays for all hourly workers on Christmas and New Year's.
Last year, Walgreens had a CEO-to-Worker pay gap of 410 to 1.
Corporate greed that would make even Scrooge blush.

Release the Jack Smith transcript.
Jack Smith is calling for the House Judiciary Committee to release the recording of his full closed-door deposition before the panel.
"Doing so will ensure that the American people can hear the facts directly from Mr. Smith, rather than through second-hand accounts."

Deputy AG Blanche just said the Trump DOJ will miss the Epstein files deadline.
He says "several hundred thousand" docs will be released today, "and then over the next couple weeks, I expect several hundred thousand more."
All files are required by law to be released today.

Trump's thug admin said the Kennedy Center name change vote was unanimous.
It wasn't.
The vote was done via conference call.
JFK’s grandson Jack Schlossberg said everyone on the board who opposed it had their microphones muted during the call.
That’s some Soviet-level dirty trickery.

It's worth noting that it is straightforwardly illegal for Trump to change the Kennedy Center name under existing federal law.
