David Ellison's Paramount is once again set to pop bottles with the Trump administration this weekend, where the company will host a brunch ahead of the White House UFC fight. @passantino.bsky.social has the details: www.status.news/p/paramount-...

lol the ACIP committee let Aaron Siri speak for some 90 minutes and cut off CDC experts and scientists off after two minutes (sometime yelling at them to shut them up). Incredible stuff.

We’re gonna run out of countries soon. 🤡

I wrote back in 2022 that if Trump is reelected, democracy will not fail all at once, but in red-state pockets, one step at at a time. Like, say, this place in Idaho. www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...

I referenced this the other day at an event and got the sense that most people had never heard of it, but looking to be ahead of its time! www.youtube.com/watch?v=0aUt...

In 2016 the NYT ran multiple front page stories page about the grave national security risk of Hillary Clinton's server. Today's front page, and nary a mention of the successful "plutocratic coup" (said by a sitting House member) or "constitutional crisis (said by a sitting Senator) unfolding

I think it was the inevitable outcome of millions of people not understanding and not caring how their own government works

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren is pressing Commerce secretary nominee Howard Lutnick on connections he and his firm Cantor Fitzgerald have with a company that’s the go-to cryptocurrency of the criminal world

If Joe Biden misspelled the name of a country in a press release announcing sanctions against said country, Lou Dobbs would rise from the dead to join Sean Hannity’s around the clock special coverage

Feel deep in my bones that the backlash to all of this is going to be enormous. Not sure how it will manifest and when it will explode into view, but confident it’s coming.

Tulsa Massacre Was a ‘Coordinated, Military-Style Attack,’ Federal Report Says

Happy felon #FAFO day! Even though this sentencing won’t have much teeth, the fact that he will go down in history as a felon burns his biscuits. And I am here for it!

A man in North Carolina who fired a rifle inside a Washington restaurant in 2016 because he wrongly believed an internet conspiracy known as Pizzagate was fatally shot by the police in North Carolina over the weekend when he pulled out a gun during a traffic stop, the authorities said.

weird scenes on Fox News as Trace Gallagher is interviewing US senators about Trump's "bold agenda" live from the CA wildfires

It’s funny Zuck says “I started building social media to give people a voice” when in fact, he started building social media to publicly rate the hotness of undergrads.

I don’t actually believe this, some part of me is convinced that God is going to punish us with another plague. www.cnn.com/2024/12/18/h...

When the NYPD went after the CEO killer, they quickly released a photos of the suspect's face taken away from the scene and a detailed trail of their route for days up to the crime. None of this happened in the case of the Capitol bomber, which remains unsolved. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/the-big...

lol this headline

Washington Post editorial board scolds people for celebrating murder of insurance exec, says "we’re skeptical that this particular moment lends itself to nuanced discussion of a complicated, and heavily regulated, industry," then proceeds to argue that we can't really have a better system.

Just to be clear: the incoming Trump administration is going to war against their own Republican senate majority and the constitution's advice and consent provision so they can make a man investigated for ***sex trafficking a minor*** into the most powerful law enforcement officer in the country.

The Bible-thumping Speaker of the House is working overtime to cover up credible allegations that Trump’s unqualified AG nominee committed sexual misconduct. We’re already plumbing new depths of depravity.

Pete Hegseth, Donald Trump’s pick for secretary of defense, was involved in a police investigation into an alleged sexual assault in 2017, local officials in California confirmed

Also he never did graduate studies, he dropped out of his bachelor program. He liked to create these rumors he was a grad student though

I'm pretty sure that anywhere in the continent of Africa would be on Trump's list of "shit hole countries". Shouldn't this illegal South African immigrant, who broke the law be deported whence he came?

Can’t USCIS yank citizenship if they find out you lied on naturalization forms?

Welp. "...Elon Musk worked illegally in the United States as he launched his entrepreneurial career after ditching a graduate studies program in California, according to former business associates, court records and company documents obtained by The Washington Post."

Federal officials said on Friday that a video showing mailed-in ballots in Pennsylvania being destroyed was a fake, created by Russia as part of Moscow’s efforts to influence the U.S. presidential election.

Deport him now.

Exclusive: South African-born Elon Musk worked illegally in the United States as he launched his entrepreneurial career after ditching a graduate studies program in California, according to documents obtained by The Post.

Feeling my sanity slipping away as more and more (genuinely awful) stories about what Trump said or did accrues. Because: HE PLOTTED AND ATTEMPTED TO EXECUTE A VIOLENT COUP ON LIVE TV! HE ATTMEPTED TO END THE REPUBLIC! HE'S THE BIGGEST TRAITOR TO THE CONSITUTIONAL ORDER SINCE THE CONFEDERACY!

Liz Cheney: "I'm a conservative. I know that the most conservative of all conservative principles is being faithful to the constitution. And you have to choose in this race between someone who has been faithful to the constitution, who will be faithful, and Donald Trump."

The Hollywood company behind “Blade Runner 2049” sued Elon Musk for copyright infringement on Monday, accusing him of illegally using imagery from that film to promote Tesla’s new “robotaxi.”

Trump pretty clearly called Elon Musk “Elanya” today.

I'm in the liminal space where my book is basically done but I have to wait until January until it's out in the world and I'm a wildly impatient person and it's driving me a bit batty. sirenscallbook.com

I’d humbly ask you to watch and share! youtu.be/o-rNxvt0TcQ?...

I’ll just reiterate that if Republicans had to win the popular vote they actually couldn’t run like this in national presidential elections.

It's very funny they keep calling it a "leaked" indictment. It's literally a public document. No one leaked it! It's just there, in the public domain now and forever.
