Expat!!

The iconic weeping willow trees outside the Kennedy Center have been cut down by Trump.

People are asking what else they can do. My advice is to drop your subscriptions to Paramount and Warner Brothers services and use that money to support as many independent media outlets as you can afford. Pick a couple and give them a try. It's critical we build a pro-democracy media ecosystem.

The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

Inexcusable, unforgivable, complicit https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2025/12/18/boat-strike-survivors-congress-inquiries/

Just a reminder: White supremacy is the reigning ideology of the American executive branch.

The press contact for FACE THE NATION is amanda.leonard@paramount.com if anyone wants to explain to them why people might care about a massive pedophile sex trafficking ring that apparently implicates the president and several other powerful men.

“Blending family and governance, Trump organization talks real estate deal with Saudis”— NYT headline “Raising corruption to new heights, Trump accepts bribes from Saudis”— accurate headline For shame, media. Normalizing the unthinkable.

I am beyond thrilled by the election results this week. But mark my words, they learn. They learned from the first term and they learned from their losses. There will be no free and fair election next year because they will not lose. Natl guard, ice and locals preparing for the troops.

Aboard the Queen Mary

Dropped my subscription to the Washington Post awhile ago but I have been reading the online headlines as a local. But even the headlines are now so gross and fawning to the regime that I am done. Horrible.

You. Are. Allowed. To. Insult. The. Police. It’s a core First Amendment principle. This is utterly lawless behavior, for which there will be no (short-term) consequences. That he does it so casually, as they are walking away, in front of cameras. Rightly confident in his impunity.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov 37 and Kedzie, East Garfield, Illinois. This is assault.

May I suggest that we all become familiar with Horst Wessel.

Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

WATCH: “Holy f*ck — They literally just shot her point blank… I live here…” @lapdhq shoot a woman trying to get to her apartment at point blank range with a rubber bullet. Alexandria’s page (the woman who helps her): www.tiktok.com/@labyrinthlo...

To be clear, he’s not bullshitting here. They threatened billboard companies, forcing them to remove the ads. They are banning the opposition party from political advertising. fox40.com/hill-politic...

Take a minute from your day and read this chilling story about how quickly we've gotten to where we are.

The Trump admin's proposed rule in the Federal Register could turn up to 50,000 civil servants into political appointees. There's a mechanism to fight the proposal, but first you have to notice. Then comment. Our latest, @www.AllRiseNews.com www.allrisenews.com/p/trump-purg...

Remembering how Newt Gingrich happily destroyed the House to take it over. Happy to make it a dysfunctional mess for power. Happy to destroy a decent man for his job. Same for America now. I saw Newt and Calista at the Rome airport last week and somehow restrained myself from assault…

Has anyone else noticed that making Canada a state would add a whole lotta white folks to the US population? Just a coincidence I am sure.

FINALLY one western nation is acting to root out Russian interference. Romania's investigations into Pro-Russian candidate Georgescu reveal another puppet of the Putin regime. $10,000,000 in cash, trips back and forth to Moscow, all the usual. Why can't other nations get serious about Russians?

Senate Democrats are considering voting NO or delaying every Trump nominee as retaliation for his overreach on ending USAID. Smash the RT if you SUPPORT this plan. ZERO votes from Democrats!!

Bravo, @anntelnaes.bsky.social. I guess the new slogan for the Washington Post ought to be: “Newspapers die in cowardice.” anntelnaes.substack.com/p/why-im-qui...
