VOUCHER SCAM: “Welfare for the wealthy. We just gave $300 MILLION for private school vouchers.” MEMPHIS Rep. @justinjpearson.bsky.social on why he oppose the @WilliamLamberth @GovBillLee voucher expansion bill that passed the house tonight. (@repgillespie voted yes)

No notes.

"MAGA loves it. MAGA loves what I’m doing. MAGA loves everything I do," Trump said. "MAGA is me. MAGA loves everything I do, and I love everything I do, too." When the psycho-history of this era is written, this must be the epigraph.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply. I want to make sure this is very clear.

Really says it all, doesn’t it? Also, why didn’t Kash say there weren’t any? #TrumpEpsteinCoverup

So just to be clear — our economy is doing great and everything is amazing… but also it’s still Biden’s economy and next year is when it will finally get good? Do we have that right?

Well, well, well - looks like Trump's Justice Department is in violation of a law signed just last month by ... President Trump. Is it just me, or does the whole "in a couple of weeks" bit NEVER get tired? www.nytimes.com/2025/12/19/u...

So I guess everything's actually great, and it's all Biden's fault?

If releasing the Epstein files would end your presidency, then your presidency must end. It’s that simple.

I'm thoroughly convinced of three things: 1. Pete Hegseth really, really wants to kill people. 2. He's SeCrEtaRY oF WAr precisely because he wants to kill people so badly. Like, that's his whole thing. 3. Trump defends Hegseth because he also wants to kill people. A lot. A whole lotta lot.

This is absurd. 1st, it's just "phase 1" of a cease fire, not peace. 2nd, he threatened to obliterate Gaza unless they signed (and he agreed to build a Qatari airforce base in Idaho). Third, he's ordered the US military against its own citizens, after renaming the Defense Dpt. the War dpt. NO PRIZE!

The craziest thing about this fight between Trump and Elon Musk is that Republicans are trying to take away health care from 16 million people to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.

Happy Indie Bookstore Day! Independent bookstores are why I have a career.

Thirty-eight of 43 experts cut last month from the boards that review the science and research that happens in laboratories at the National Institutes of Health are female, Black or Hispanic, according to an analysis by the chairs of a dozen of the boards.

Sadly evergreen.

So if I’m understanding today correctly, the world’s richest person Elon Musk, whom no one elected, is taking over federal payment systems and employee data while the federal employees who investigate and prosecute public corruption are being fired en masse.

The weekend “ends” as soon as it begins it seems.
