At the first stop on his affordability tour, Trump mocks affordability What was supposed to be a speaking tour to connect with Americans struggling with higher prices and stagnant wages was instead a greatest hits campaign speech.

😂😂😂 On his Pennsylvania "Affordability Tour," Trump was supposed to connect with Americans struggling with higher prices and stagnant wages. Instead, he mocked the word “affordability,” touted how high the stock market had risen and said Americans didn’t need so many pencils.

The sheer danger of Paramount winning the bid for Warner Bros. Discovery: It sounds like a bore on its face, but the ramifications are HUGE. It would mean an ultra right takeover of mass media...and news.

How a Cryptocurrency Helps Criminals Launder Money and Evade Sanctions

Cryptocurrency is a growing hotbed for Russian and other foreign criminal activity. And guess who's got his family's hands in this hotbed? Trump's corrupt Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, but of course. 😒

Heartbreaking. We can only hope Ukraine's strikes on Russian infrastructure are even more effective.

How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!!
No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

Mais oui, monsieur!

ICE Arrest Data Shows Many Immigrants With No Criminal Record In high-profile operations, more than half of those arrested had no criminal record, an analysis shows.

This is the utter shame (and sham) of ICE: In its high-profile operations in Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington, D.C. and across Massachusetts, more than half of those arrested had no criminal record.

And hopefully, as per the norm, the big city votes come in last...🙏

Putin pushes the envelope to make himself sound big and important. NATO should tell him to stop with his aggressive moves on Russia's neighbors and refocus his attention on his failing economy.

San Francisco Will Sue Ultraprocessed Food Companies

Whoa! Ultra processed foods comprise 70% of what we eat. Now the San Francisco city attorney will file the nation’s first government lawsuit against food manufacturers over this fare, arguing that cities and counties are burdened with the costs of treating diseases stemming from it.

Good point!

Someone else on this site pointed out that it's actually in Project 2025 to make Venezuelan regime change a priority and to capture supply chains in the region. I googled that and it's true.

Are you sure it's about a war on drug cartels or is it not, instead, a land grab to gain control of Venezuela's oil fields?

WOLFERS: “When a politician says: we’ll deregulate health insurance and send you a “freedom account” check, ask: freedom to buy what? If insurers don’t offer real policies or can cherry-pick only healthy people, that money is a coupon for a store that’s not open.” #MedicareForAllNOW

Europe ain't kidding around when it comes to Russia... #ukraine

C.D.C. Quietly Appoints Doctor Critical of Vaccines as Second in Command

While Trump's economy slumps, his second in command CDC appointee is known for being anti-vaccine and hating COVID shots. So...flu, anyone? Or how about measles? Or maybe polio...? 🙄

Judge tosses cases against Comey and James, rules prosecutor appointment unlawful The decision disqualifying Lindsey Halligan as interim U.S. attorney sets back Trump’s efforts to use the Justice Department to target perceived rivals.

Too bad, Trump. Comey and James are off your crooked hook. 😂

So well reasoned, and this shows a deep respect for a ceasefire and for the start of genuine negotiations.

24-point European counter-proposal in full: 1. End of the war and arrangements to ensure no repetition, to establish a permanent basis for lasting peace and security. 2. Both parties to the conflict commit to a full unconditional ceasefire in the sky, on the land and at sea. 3. Both sides immediately enter into negotiations on technical implementation of ceasefire monitoring with the participation of the US and European countries. 4. US-led international ceasefire monitoring by partners of Ukraine is introduced. Monitoring will be predominantly remote using satellites, drones, and other technological tools with a flexible on-land component to investigate alleged violations. 5. A mechanism will be created through which parties can submit reports of ceasefire violations, and to investigate ceasefire violations and discuss corrective measures. 6. Russia unconditionally returns all deported and illegally displaced Ukrainian children. The process will be supported by international partners. 7. The parties to the conflict exchange all prisoners of war (the principle of "all for all"). Russia releases all civilian detainees. 8. Upon ensuring sustainability of the ceasefire, the parties to the conflict take measures for humanitarian relief including family visits across the line of contact. 9. Ukraine's sovereignty is respected and reconfirmed. Ukraine is not forced to be neutral. 10. Ukraine receives robust legally binding security guarantees, including from the US, (Article 5-like agreement) to prevent future aggression. 11. No restriction imposed on the Ukraine Defence Forces and defence industry, including international cooperation. 12. The guarantor states will be an ad hoc grouping of European countries and willing non-European countries. Ukraine is free to decide on the presence, weapons and operations of friendly forces invited by the government of Ukraine on its territory. 13. Ukraine's membership in NATO depends on consensus within the Alliance. 14. U…

European counter plan to the Russian authored Trump Ukraine surrender plan.

If Nov 4th was any indication, it's like he doesn't fix the economy as promised AND he makes this cruel stuff his priority. Too much...

What we might be learning tonight. JD Vance is on the inside with lots of influence over Trump policy towards Russia/Ukraine, while Rubio is kept in the dark.

Vance, btw, might be the most pro Russian/anti Ukraine person in the administration (other than Trump perhaps)

What a shit show. Everyone could see this plan was written by the Kremlin. Adopted by Witkoff and Trump who demanded Ukraine accept it by this Thursday. After a firestorm of objections by Europe and Republican senators it appears Rubio wants to distance himself from it.

Finally! A federal judge blocked the IRS from sharing data with immigration enforcement officials, ruling that the tax agency violated federal law and the rights of tens of thousands of individuals while helping with Trump’s mass deportations.

And isn't their accusatory cry of "antisemitism" the reason Trump and his cronies went after universities across the country for tens of millions of dollars? If that wasn't BS enough then, it sure looks it now.

CDC in turmoil after agency backpedals on debunking vaccines-autism link Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-Louisiana), who voted to confirm Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. after he pledged not to remove language stating vaccines do not cause autism from the CDC website, condemne...

So the CDC's website was just updated to link autism with child vaccines - and the resulting meltdown's been swift. "The revisions show that the 'CDC cannot currently be trusted as a scientific voice.'" Now it's a national conspiracy spreader. Good God...

U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

So Trump sues universities for tens of millions as "punishment" for supposed "antisemitism" and racism but then nods approval for the Coast Guard to turn a blind eye to symbols of nooses and Nazi swastikas. Just...what the hell?

Family Affair: Commerce Secretary’s Sons Cash In on A.I. Frenzy

This is the type of corruption the Trump administration brings: Howard Lutnick openly boosting business for his sons. Never "in modern U.S. history has the office intersected so broadly and deeply with the financial interests of the commerce secretary’s own family." www.nytimes.com/2025/11/20/u...

Crypto is heading for the crypt. How apt.

You might not have caught what just happened on the Senate floor, but the Senate just “deemed as passed” the Epstein resolution.

That means as soon as it arrives from the House, it automatically passes the Senate (with no amendments) and heads to the President’s desk.

Wow.
