Like dictators before him, Trump’s road to tyranny is paved with hate.

We will not succumb to the ravings of a venomous president who wants us to hate each other. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-the-bigot-in-the-oval

My law firm is currently litigating 11 redistricting cases in 10 states. We are also litigating an additional 54 voting and election cases in 27 states.

This is as many cases as we typically handle going into the final months of the election. 2026 will almost certain be a record breaking year.

Ahem

He doesn’t have immunity for illegal acts unless we let him!No one is above the Constitution not the President and not the 6 MAGA Justices on the Supreme Court!
Stop making stupid statements!

The president is a political cartoon of corruption come to life, a gaudy grifter who is selling off pardons and lining his pockets, building a golden ballroom and protecting his fellow sex predator elites, all the while regular Americans are suffering and struggling to make ends meet.

Run on *that*

The US has no authority over Venezuelan air space‼️ FDT‼️

Agree or disagree?

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

“The universe is a unity. Every material thing is in all things.
All things come from all, and all is in all things.”

Today the #independent newspaper is bleating about “why are the pensioners a special case” when they should be asking “why are millionaires a special case”

😄

Some in the Democratic Party want to you think we must choose between social justice and economic populism.

Rubbish.

The only path forward is embracing both.

Mark Kelly: "This president, when he says things like 'third world countries,' what is he really saying? I think what he's saying is he doesn't want brown people in our country. And that's disturbing. It's un-American."

Robert Reich A Warning from 1994 of a Two-Tiered Society | Robert Reich

31 years ago this month, I warned that America was becoming a two-tiered society composed of a few winners and a larger group left behind, whose anger and disillusionment could be easily manipulated.

I took a lot of heat for this speech. Watch and tell me if I was wrong.

What he said: 💯 🎯

Turkey Day With a Turkey President Trump’s fixation on personal flattery feeds his authoritarianism. It makes for bad diplomacy, too.

Our 250 years of preserving liberty isn’t some nice holiday story that we recall dimly through the mists of time. It’s real. It can reassure and educate and inspire us. It’s something from which to derive hope and for which to give thanks. lnk.thebulwark.com/3Krlaaz

NOW! MAGA is silent. The National Guard shooter, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, entered the U.S. in 2021 and was granted LEGAL ASYLUM by the TRUMP ADMINISTRATION in April 2025.
No tweets. No rallies. No outrage. Just crickets.

When the facts hit their hero, the narrative vanishes. Hypocrisy on full display.

I remember when everyone had her on their show because she was friends with Trump’s daughter. I not impressed with trust fund babies!

Violence has no place in America. Michelle and I are praying for the servicemembers shot in Washington, DC today, and send our love to their families as they enter this holiday season under the most tragic of circumstances.

I don't see how Tesla's Model 3 can survive if Benz can offer an alternative EV this cheap, with this kind of performance, on top of the 15% tariff that it's charged in the US.

Imagine what this model does to Tesla in Europe, where Benz pays no tariffs.

YouTube video by The Ring of Fire Hegseth Tries to BAN Scouts from Military Bases

Kegbreath doesn't want the scouts to be around the military because they are not masculine, too woke, & they allow co-ed troops. He said they are DEI.

Didn’t the FBi pull a lot of personnel from anti terrorism to put them on deportations?

Actually the whole security establishment pivoted

Breaking News from CNN: The GA Prosecutor has killed the Election interference case against the Convicted FElon & his allies.
What the Fuck‼️This is a bunch of bullshit. Once again the Convicted FElon got away with more crimes.

The maniac’s response to the tragedy today, he’s sending 500 more Nat’l Guard troops to DC.

Borrowed because he’s distracting attention away from the Epstein Files.
