Good morning and Merry Christmas to everyone. Am delighted to report that people here hate Fat Satan as much as we do and they think he's a wanker. Also, disappointed I haven't seen any of these people IRL.

If you’re celebrating the mass deportations of distraught, exhausted human beings seeking refuge, you probably shouldn’t be singing sweet songs about a baby with “no crib for a bed.”

I worked for DOJ. I don't think people realize how dangerous it is for the White House to takeover the daily operations of the Justice Department.

There are a lot of files in this new dataset that have made me feel this way.

I’m still making my way through DataSet 8, but this is some vile shit.

I say “Happy Holidays” because I want to be a light to people, regardless of their religious worldview, and because simple kindness is rare in these dark days.

I say “Happy Holidays,” because I want to be like Jesus and not a jerk.

'Happy Holidays' isn't an Insult to Jesus. Christians Who Weaponize Christmas are.

DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar:

"Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

Jeffries: This is the same group of people who raced back to Washington so they could enact the largest cut to Medicaid in American history.

Phang: I call it the big bullshit bill.

Jeffries: You’re a little more direct than what we’ve been politely calling it—but you ain’t wrong. You ain’t wrong.

The only way we will ever see the true Epstein files is if they are leaked.

Someone deep within the DOJ or elsewhere needs to be a hero.

These are pedofiles. Lowlifes. Running around with no accountibility.

James Talarico: The Bible doesn't mention abortion or gay marriage, but it goes on and on about forgiving debt, liberating the poor, and healing the sick. The closest thing we have to the kingdom of heaven is a multiracial, multicultural democracy where power is truly shared among all people

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

It’s not just Gaza.

Netanyahu’s extremist government is supporting the violent annexation of Palestinian land in the West Bank. This is illegal and immoral, and decades of American silence have enabled it.

Just started this and it is pretty upsetting. I saw earlier suggestions that a Democratic congressperson should filibuster their chamber by reading this entire book into the record. Still seems like an excellent idea.
