Screw forgiving absolutely debilitating student load debt! Let's cap credit card interest so folks will hopefully spend themselves into more debt in a crappy attempt to generate some economy.
Trump: "AFFORDABILITY! Effective January 20, 2026, I, as President of the United States, am calling for a one year cap on Credit Card Interest Rates of 10%."

ICE are America’s Taliban. How they are acting reminds me so much of the intentional cruelty depicted in The Kite Runner.
Trump's Gestapo
“'The guy, I’m telling him like, "Please step off the school grounds," and this dude comes up and bumps into me and then tells me that I pushed him, and he knocked me down,' an official at Roosevelt High School said. 'They don’t care. They’re just animals. I’ve never seen people behave like this.'"

Pretty much a repeat of last night with football, couch, wiener dogs, and a cozy fire. Difference tonight is I’m hoping Rodgers completely falls on his face.

Couch, doggos, football, a fire, and even a bit of Baldur’s Gate 3 during halftime. It’s a good night.
Note: As a gay man, the night is always improved with a couple of wieners right in my face.

One of the most unbelievable things to me is how many folks actually believe that Democrats would be the administration of wars. Dems in Congress have supported things too much, but, in my lifetime...
Grenada - Reagan
Panama & Kuwait - Bush I
Afghanistan & Iraq - Bush II
Venezuela - Trump

Yes, Germany and Japan after WWII is totally the same as Iraq/Venezuela.
Veteran New York Times national security reporter David Sanger says what Trump is describing in Venezuela is an "American occupation."

Amongst ever other illegal and ridiculous thing about this attack, I think it being launched with the President at Mar-A-Lago and run behind makeshift curtains is probably not noted enough.
Imagine if Obama had run the Bin Laden operation from a resort in Hawaii.

at least part of everything this government does is to impress a handful of psychos on twitter
Several of the photos have Twitter up on a screen in the background but I can’t make out what search term appears

Wait, are they really running operations on that from behind hung-up, makeshift curtains?

Every reporter repeatedly for at least the next month should be asking Trump/Vance/Rubio if that means it's ok for Russia, China, Iran, etc. to launch a military operation to remove a sovereign countries leader and run it if they issued charges against them and feel they are a threat.
Ok, so Canada can indict Trump for bribery, bomb Washington DC, and send the Mounties to round him up. It's that how this works?
This is effectively might makes right by Vance. The US does not have sovereign authority over foreign leaders.

Vance pushes back and says this was not illegal, arguing "Maduro has multiple indictments in the United States for narcoterrorism. You don't get to avoid justice for drug trafficking in the United States because you live in a palace in Caracas."

Reminder that this is just days after Cankles McOrange (falsely) chastised Ukraine for targeting Putin, saying how horrible it was and that you don’t do that.

Reminder for regular gym goers for the coming influx of New Years resolution folks. You can approach this two ways:
1. You can grumble and complain about the busy gym, give dirty looks, laugh at their lack of technique, note how folks are going to quit anyway, and basically guarantee that outcome.

What I feel like someone should really write (and probably has) is how after being first to master the auto, flight, atom, and moon, giant corporations and billionaires influenced politicians to keep legacy tech in place while the world made better advances, and continue to do so.
Speaking as someone who just wrote a book on the Manhattan Project, I can assure you that refugee immigrants were the *entire* reason the US mastered the atom first. The most chilling part of writing my book was reading about them fleeing fascism … abroad. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/fleeing-on...

Can you believe mom made Christmas cookies shaped like dog bones but won't let us eat them cuz they're 'not for dogs?'
Isn't there a law that says if it's shaped like a dog bone, it HAS to be for dogs? If not, there SHOULD be. 😒
She gave us extra treats but we're still a little miffed. 🤣
