Kudos to Mayor Mamdani.

This is what economic justice looks like.

And it's a reminder of how we can fight corporate greed at the state and local level. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2026/01/mamdani-ice-delivery-workers-settlement-backpay-uber-gig-workers-million/

Europe may begin selling U.S. assets in response to a new conflict with the USโ€”a move that could trigger a dollar collapse, Bloomberg reports. Deutsche Bank analysts warn Washingtonโ€™s key vulnerability is living off global financingโ€”and Europe may decide it no longer wants to bankroll the U.S.

U.S. Attacked Boat With Aircraft That Looked Like a Civilian Plane

Breaking NYT:

The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter.

The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status.

That is a war crime called "perfidy."

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are whatโ€™s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

FYI: Judge Ellis (Chicago ICE case) noted in November that video evidence shows ICE "brake-checked other motorists in an attempt to force accidents that agents could then use as justifications for deploying force."

I think itโ€™s important to point out: ICE does NOT have the same authority as a police officer. They do NOT have the power to enforce laws, only to engage in their specific tasks.

IE: they donโ€™t do traffic, etc. impeding traffic is not a penalty ICE can enforce against

Her vehicle's right front panel cleared the ICE agent who didn't open fire until after he was at the side of her vehicle. He used deadly force on a fleeing individual, which is against DHS policy. This is murder. He needs to be arrested.

Those observing Christmas are celebrating a family of asylum seekers. If there is indeed a "War on Christmas," it's being waged by those trying to make our country less safe for the poor, for the marginalized, and for refugees.

This is sinister. If you're wondering why so many people don't report sexual assault, this is why.

What weโ€™re being told is that a guy who is an adjudicated rapist, who was credibly accused of sexual assault by dozens of women, who paid hush money to a porn star, who cheated on all his wives, who is mentioned hundreds of times in the Epstein files, couldnโ€™t possibly be a sexual predator.

Letโ€™s hope the shift continues and that Massie and Greene are not the only (R)s with the guts to be vocal about the depravity of the goddamn U.S. President real soon.
