Mark Cuban: "James Talarico. Let's go. I'm a big fan. He's honest, trustworthy, he cares. He'll do the right thing as opposed to the politically expedient thing. To Texans, do what's best for Texas. You've been voting for Republicans all these years, what have they done for you?" #momsky#sheshed

Just asked Victor Wembanyama if he’d ever consider promoting a sports betting company. “Absolutely not. I will never do that. Honestly, I think it's very sad to see some players promote it. .. Everybody does whatever they want, but without me.”

You literally can’t even understand the words he’s saying, he’s slurring so much through this. He sounds like he’s got some kind of significant disability

TALARICO: What they're doing in TX is they're redrawing the lines in middle of the decade, which is unprecedented. It's like changing rules after halftime bc you're worried the other team is going to win. It's cheating CHARLAMAGNE: More politicians should say that T: That they're cheating? C: Yes

Paxton has his aide step and doesn't answer when someone asks him "how come on a government salary you own over 15 houses?"

This is a devastating interview. Scott Pelley tells the NYT that Bari Weiss directly put a “thumb on the scale” for Trump over the killing of Renee Good. Here’s his explanation of exactly what happened.

On its third attempt tonight, Marblehead Town Meeting approved an “MBTA Communities–compliant” district largely centered on the 125-year-old Tedesco Country Club, meeting 3A requirements on paper while all but assuring no new housing would be built. This comment says it all.

The DOJ not only indicted the group @splcenter.org that infiltrated the KKK, they indicted them because they infiltrated the KKK. I’m donating today to the Southern Poverty Law Center, of which I want half to go to help fighting racists and half to fight the KKK’s legal dept, aka the DOJ and FBI.

hey do you want to watch a financial expert that is paid a ton of money for that expertise argue that 3.3 is a smaller number than 3.0?

Joe Kernen comes close to having a coronary on air as Pete Buttigieg dogwalks him all over the Squawk Box studio about Trump's economic mismanagement and inflation

Every time I open a news app or site and this story isn’t being discussed or featured prominently I feel like I’m losing my mind. Do not look away.

Breaking News: New video adds to evidence that a U.S. missile likely hit an Iranian school where 175 people, many of them children, were reportedly killed.

It's hard to believe that you could be the trade representative for a major power and not know that tariffs are regressive. My econ 101 students know what the word regressive means, and that tariffs are regressive. Many could even cite studies on the subject.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trade Representative Jamieson Greer on tariffs: "It's not regressive. Most consumption in America is done by the wealthiest people. So the idea it's somehow regressive is just wrong."

Anyone currently involved in federal immigration enforcement, every officer, every bureaucrat, every lawyer, every judge, is a member of the most evil group of people this country has seen since Reconstruction. Darkness personified, every one. Doing this to children is beyond depraved.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast. The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me. But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

TRIGGER WARNING, because here is a US Marshal from Trump‘s Gestapo Force in Memphis kicking a puppy today in the Whitehaven neighborhood and breaking its rib. They were serving a warrant and I guess BIG MAN got scared of the schnauzer. (I didn’t take the video, the dog’s person did)

I do not make this comparison lightly.

"In my few days in Minnesota, I’ve been witness to countless scenes that remind me of moments I’ve seen during previous trips covering conflicts around the world," photojournalist @cengizyar.com writes. "The wars we’ve carried out as a nation abroad have come home." More: https://propub.li/4acxEeY

A brief, recent history of the Washington Post: 1- Trump wins in 2024. 2- Bezos and minions make series of Trump-friendly changes to paper. 3-Readership tanks. 4- Bezos and minions fire tons of employees while telling them the audience just doesn't like what they're doing.
