DOJ has missed two deadlines on Epstein files and is now breaking the law. We need to see accountability and a separate task force that must go in and audit what has happened. Seize the files and release them. DOJ can not longer be trusted. They have repeatedly lied to American people and lawmakers.

Graham: This is not interventionism. This is making America safer. We're going to be more prosperous because of the business deals.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply.
I want to make sure this is very clear.

If Russia can't participate in international sports, why can the US?
Ban them, and move the World Cup to Canada/Mexico.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.
Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?

Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"

Among the many reasons you don’t kidnap a foreign head of state at gunpoint even if you have the capability, is that it sparks consequences you can neither control nor anticipate.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

It’s 2026 and one of the first things that has happened is that a major news outlet has announced that it will no longer seek information from experts.
I don’t think this is gonna help with what I think is the most existential threat to our society currently: disinformation.

A rough year for journalists in 2025, with a little hope for things to turn around
Worldwide, the 126 media industry people killed in 2025 by early December matched the number of deaths in all of 2024, and last year was a record-setter.
