It’s pretty wild that the most rabidly anti-immigrant administration in recent memory is comprised of a President married to an immigrant, a VP married to the daughter of immigrants, an assistant AG in charge of Civil Rights who’s an immigrant (Dhillon), & it was all funded by an immigrant (Musk).

This administration lied about the people it sent to an overseas torture prison. It lies about the people it’s deporting. It lies every day to gain political advantage. Not a chance in hell they won’t lie about huge swaths of people they suspect might vote for the other party.

Russia’s biggest secret: it’s failing in its war against Ukraine
Putin does not want you to know this:
At the start of the full-scale war, Ukraine controlled 23 regional capital and special-status cities.
It still controls all 23 today. Russia hasn’t managed to take a single one. 0/23!

They actually went ahead with this at a moment when antisemitism is rising.
The Coast Guard “quietly” enacted a policy downgrading swastikas to “potentially divisive.” And for an extra kick in the nuts, they downgraded nooses too.

25 years ago today, SCOTUS elected George W Bush president of the United States by blocking completion of a voting canvass in Florida. A subsequent canvass by the Associated Press showed that Bush's rival, Al Gore, had won the race in Florida—and thus the contest for the presidency—by 700 votes.

Russia does not want peace and will always find a way to derail it.

Mom. The term this Malaysian activist and "commander" are looking for is Mom.
It’s clear from the video this woman had just come to the park to play with her child. She said as much and was upset that there were masked men with guns in the park.
Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino calls the woman an “activist” and Andy Ngo says the woman was using her child as a “human shield.”

Russian alcohol prices spiking in 2026, civil unrest likely.
The Kremlin is clearly desperate for money to risk this. For 0.5L bottles, price jumps are:
🔹Vodka: 17%
🔹Brandy: 28%
🔹Cognac and Whiskey: 16%
Expect a lot more angry posts from AlcoMedvedev next year.
