In a breathtaking reversal of reality, Trump uses a taxpayer funded website to whitewash the history of Jan. 6, blaming Capitol Police, Democrats and Pence -- everyone but himself and the mob that stormed the Capitol. @lukebroadwater.bsky.social @alanfeuer.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2026/01/06/u...

Affordability is the story for 2026

Maybe the cost of eggs goes down, maybe it doesn’t

But-since ACA subsidies weren’t renewed-if you now can’t afford health insurance and are bankrupted by treatment or prescriptions, what does it matter

Democrats tried to fix it

Republicans weren’t interested

1) Trump takes 4X the usual dose of aspirin because “I want nice, thin blood pouring through my heart,” he tells WSJ.

His “skin is so delicate that Pam Bondi caused his hand to bleed when she nicked him with her ring while giving him a high-five”

Trump also threatened to return to major Democratic-led cities and states.

“We will come back, perhaps in a much different and stronger form," he wrote on Truth Social. "Only a question of time!"

BREAKING: Trump said he’s ending his National Guard deployment in Los Angeles, as well as his attempted military takeovers in Chicago and Portland. The move comes a week after SCOTUS upheld a lower court ruling halting his efforts to deploy troops in the Windy City.

IF THE SHOE FITS

Justice Brett Kavanaugh isn’t happy that his name has become synonymous w/racist immigration enforcement.

ICE’s policy of detaining people based on ethnicity is called a “Kavanaugh stop,” named after his ruling that allows it. He’s afraid the name will ruin his “legacy.” Too late!

You can watch the 60 Minutes piece (with a link in my story) about the abuse & torture migrants received in the El Salvador gulag after being deported by the Trump regime without due process & lies about their criminality. This horror is what Trump apologist Bari Weiss didn’t want Americans to see.
Bullseye from 60 Minutes journalist Sharyn Alfonsi in response to Bari Weiss: “If the administration’s refusal to participate becomes a valid reason to spike a story, we have effectively handed them a ‘kill switch’ for any reporting they find inconvenient.”

Catholics represent fewer than 20% of U.S. adults, however, they make up 61% of the population at risk of deportation. Trump’s immigration crackdown is disproportionately hitting Catholic communities.

The Trump admin is again attempting to dismantle legal protections for migrant children that jeopardize their health.

These same protections were designed to prevent what we’re seeing: hundreds of kids held alone in inhumane conditions for prolonged periods.

This is a new low, even for Noem’s DHS.
NEW:

A Dec. 1 report from ICE indicated that about 400 immigrant children were held in custody for more than the 20-day limit during the reporting period from August to September. Legal advocates say the government is failing to safeguard children.

Every disturbing news report about a wrongful deportation or military-style raid of an apartment building should come as a reminder that the US government is using its prosecutorial discretion—it is choosing to normalize casual cruelty and overt racism.
