here comes the red naughty rhino

It's so cool that everything you can order at a bar or modest restaurant costs five dollars more than it did a year ago. I love to make confused faces at menus.

stub your toe this morning? guess who did that?? 🫵 illegals 🫵

you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric

petro is so beast

BREAKING ANALYSIS: Congress Releases Cherry-Picked Emails From Epstein Files To Falsely Incriminate Trump In Sexual Abuse Of Young Girls!

lol

Trump’s first nominee for Attorney General of the United States

She was 17 and a high school junior in Florida. She was working at McDonald’s. And she was living in and out of a homeless shelter. Hoping to save up to buy braces to fix her teeth, she falsely advertised herself in 2017 as 18 years old on a website that matches men looking for “companionship” with young women looking to make money. What followed would set off a chain of events that would have a dramatic impact on her life and help upend the political career of one of the men she would encounter, Representative Matt Gaetz, the Florida Republican.

The woman whom the House Ethics Committee determined Matt Gaetz paid for sex when she was 17 years old was living in a homeless shelter, working at McDonald's, and needed the money for braces www.nytimes.com/2025/11/13/u...

"she needed money for braces"

it's really hard to overstate how fucking evil these people are

Being a conservative woman isn't worth it. There's not enough money. There's not enough fame. At the end of the line you'll be saying "actually it's ephebophelia" while your 14-year-old daughter watches and your last real hair follicle withers away in a pool of bleach.

This pedophilic regime has got to go.

Elected officials, media, corporations, judges, universities … need to see this administration for what it is—a sinking ship full of rats.

We have the power to pressure the people in power.

The Kremlin disguised a nearly $100 mn payment to Trump in the form of a brokered real estate deal... and both Jeffrey Epstein and William Pulte were involved in the deal. That's very interesting.

We do this constantly in Britain, usually by saying: “My new book is coming in April! ‘Travesty of Horseshit: How everyone was lying about the catastrophic events, and we all knew but repeated their drivel and kept quiet for five years about the bad stuff’, at all good bookshops RRP £14.99”.

Wes Streeting has received £225k from private healthcare donors in the past year and I just don't think my morals could be bought for the price of half a London flat. I don't know if I have a number that would make me sell my country's health service down the river but Wes and I are different.

The fact that this person remains Health Secretary is objectively one of the most significant British political scandals of the post-Covid era. But because he's doing something the media barons like, everyone has decided it's fine.

The Epstein story gets a something that is tearing at the heart of the electorate: elite impunity. The idea that wealthy and powerful people can do terrible things *at scale* and face no consequences for them. Whatever political party actually stops it could rule the country for a generation.

What in the Sam Hill

Bari Weiss wants to take down ‘too much power’ CBS News Standards unit: sources EXCLUSIVE: Internal rumblings within the newsroom come after the S&P head resigned and the network disbanded its vaunted Race and Culture unit.

“I’ve been hearing that standards will be eliminated or severely cut back. Bari has told people that she wants to get rid of standards and is shocked that they have so much power. She also asked openly, ‘What’s the point of standards?’” one CBS source said.

ALASTAIR CAMPBELL O @campbellclaret X.com The real weakness of the BBC, as exemplified by recent events, is its failure to stand up to ludicrous claims from the right that it is somehow hugely biased to the left. Listening to Telegraph journalists bleat about a biased BBC, or Reform MPs enjoying more platforming than any minority party in history, underlines that. This is the work of right wing journalists and owners working hand in glove with right wing forces inside the BBC to undermine it. The Labour government needs to help the BBC stand up for itself and clear out those forces that want the BBC to fail.

Incredible shit here: the man who provided the template for stomping on the BBC when it displeases malicious actors in politics, complaining that malicious actors in politics are using his template for stomping on the BBC for displeasing them.

you guys just don't get it. chuck schumer and the democrats are giving up your healthcare and making no demands on purpose. once we get nothing and reopen the government then the republicans will feel so bad that they will take pity on us

I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time. Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again. An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next. Understand what it is to pray in Chicago.

Okay yeah the House caucus is pissed.

They lost their retirement savings on Trump’s crypto and NFTs. They blame Democrats.

ICE showed up at the Hidden Oaks apartment complex in Argay in Portland on 11/7 and 11/8 around 8 am. Residents made “ICE is here” signs, some handwritten and some copied, and taped them around the neighborhood.

Witnesses did not see any arrests either day, but ICE did not return this morning.

Hello from outside the Portland ICE facility.
