Sign of further Trump administration 2026 election engineering...
DOJ has sued Maine, Oregon, California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Washington, Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, and Vermont for access to its most sensitive voter data.

Hundreds of kids in S Carolina are being quarantined right now because of a measles outbreak.

I don’t have patience for niceties when it comes to this crap, so if you’re an anti-vaxxer, keep your damn kids at home and don’t travel for the holidays.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

The Fed cuts overnight rate by a quarter point. Lacking November CPI & jobs report, this small cut is a reasonable decision.

But Trump's Fed appointee, Mirin, wanted a larger cut. Hassett too. Both are signaling they will destroy Fed independence. They're dangerous!

Excellent "my pillow" Turley burn from Marc Elias, founder of Democracy Docket.

Please support this legal organization that's fighting in courts for your right to vote in a free and fair election
Jonathan Turley is obsessed with me to the point that it's creepy. I suppose I can't expect more from a guy who is essentially just Mike Lindell with tenure.

Finland ended homelessness with a housing first strategy that gave people apartments before they secured employment

Now they’re proposing a 4 day work week and 6 hour work days

True work life balance

Meanwhile in the US, people work two jobs and can’t afford food or healthcare.

There’s a new organization called Leaving MAGA. It helps people “regain their humanity.”

Frankly, it sounds like an important organization that can help people a lot.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.
