The Trump administration is REALLY allowing Qatar to build an air base in the US after they did a $5.5 billion golf resort deal with Trump and gave him a jet.

MAGA can take their ‘America First’ flags and wipe their asses with them. He is Trump First, and you are suckers.

From the Nobel press release. Full thing worth a read. Packed with diplomatic barbs.
An antidote to trump

It really feels like they’re trolling our autocrat.

I like how they gave the Nobel Prize to someone fighting for democracy in Venezuela, instead of someone sinking fishing boats off their coast.

“Oh my god… I have no words.”

Listen to the emotional moment this year’s laureate Maria Corina ( finds out she has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

Kristian Berg Harpviken, Director of the Norwegian Nobel Institute, shared the news.

What a despicable little man who is lying through his teeth to try to incite violence against Americans who will be peacefully assembling to protest the Trump regime’s anti-democratic rule.

Everyone who isn’t nuts should unite around saying “anti-fascist” in full every single time the term ever needs to be used. Correct anyone who says “antifa.” Force the right to have to start saying “Anti-fascists are terr0rists.” Make the cognitive dissonance hurt.

Picture how big the Hoover Dam is. An absolute unit. The Hoover Dam has a power capacity of 2 gigawatts (GW).

The solar farm that the Admin just cancelled could have produces 6.2 GW of power. That's more than 3 Hoover Dams.

María Corina Machado wins the Nobel Peace Prize for her work promoting democratic rights in Venezuela

Happy Nobel Peace Prize day to all who celebrate! 🕊️

In a brilliant and well deserved move, an (1) antifa (2) Latina (3) woman, María Corina Machado, wins for her work promoting democratic rights in Venezuela.

Do they have a prize for blowing up boats in the Caribbean and then bragging that people who made their livelihood fishing there for generations are now afraid to go out on the water?

Judge blocks Trump from deploying troops in Illinois for now Officials in Oregon and Illinois had challenged the Trump administration’s push to dispatch the National Guard in both states.

Judge Perry: “I’m trying to put this delicately. There has been evidence submitted that the very presence of federal agents, that the way they’re interacting with the populace, is itself the cause of violence.”

we told you, vivek.

Thou shalt not shoot pastors in the head with smoke bombs. I shouldn’t have to say this.

“I’ll declare war on you if you don’t give me the peace prize” is an incredible bit

The guy in charge of our health thinks babies grow inside of placentas.

BREAKING: Trump Admin 'Seriously' Considering Using the Insurrection Act, Reports NBC President Trump is "seriously" considering invoking the Insurrection Act in order to more easily deploy National Guard troops to major cities as part of crime crackdown, NBC reported on Wednesday

Nothing remotely resembling an insurrection is happening anywhere in the country. Any violence associated with protest has been isolated, mild, and, in nearly every case, instigated by federal law enforcement. If we let Trump get away with calling dissent an insurrection, our republic is over.

Apart from helping Comey's selective prosecution defense, this also means the president of the United States uses direct messages on Truth Social to communicate with cabinet officials.

I didn't know that, but we can be sure intelligence agencies all over the planet already did.

Good morning, Pam Bondi ☕️💅🏽

Holy crap. Trump will make the FCC crucify Jimmy Kimmel for this.

Trump: "We took the freedom of speech away because that's been through the courts and the courts said you have freedom of speech, but what has happened is when they burn a flag it agitates and irritates crowds."

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

Federal Agents Storm South Shore Building, Detaining Families and Children Families were woken by flashbangs and helicopters as hundreds of federal agents raided their homes. Days later, neighbors are still searching for the missing.

Good reporting on the South Shore raid from South Side weekly here.

Confirms one thing I was told but didn't put in my own piece because I didn't have a second source and it seemed too insane: border agents segregated arrested residents by race

Guys, every person you see on Fox News in a mask is just Robert O'Neill, retired Navy Seal and occasional Fox News contributor. He's the former Antifa, former Gazan, former gang member. His eyes are very unique.

Their outrage always seems to skip the actual predators.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
