Now #SteveWyckoff 's mispronouncing Nobel as noble. Got stupid virus from Karoline Leavitt ? I suggest a mnemonic to help them deliver their obsequious sycophantic lines 2 ingratiate with insecure pathologic narcissist in chief @donaldjtrump-maga.bsky.social
No way in Hell
Will Trump get a Nobel
No way in Hell

#ShermichaelSingleton - Nobody should be on any panel on TV who doesn't realize an MRI is not part of any routine physical & isn't the ultimate test.. better for some problems than others. Only a near comotose person wouldn't know what body part was being scanned.

@cnn.com Harry Enten I don't care what polls shows. It isn't the Olympics. The Nobel committee evaluates the entire person. SO I will repeat the mnemonic I created for #SteveWitkoff & idiot #karolineleavitt who mispronounce as noble. 'No Way in Hell, Will Trump Get A Nobel'

How long before the rest of the world or at least the rest of the civilized world designates US As a terrorist nation? I'm feeling terror.
The United States will designate Cartel de los Soles, which the US alleges is led by Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and other high-ranking officials, as a foreign terrorist organization this month, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced. https://cnn.it/4o3nPFl

@pamelabrowncnn.bsky.social with Ag Sec Brooke Rollins. She said SNAP, which pointed out states are responsible for running, is broken/corrupt. Asked for Stats & 27 mostly red states responded, 'she' found 186,000 dead people. All that proves is red states are really lousy / corrupt admins.
U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins claimed on Fox News that SNAP "increased almost 40%" in "just a couple of years under the Biden administration." She didn't specify what she meant, but the data show her claim is inaccurate regardless. www.snopes.com/news/2025/11...
Did SNAP benefits increase almost 40% under Biden administration? What we know
While the secretary did not elaborate on what, exactly, about SNAP increased by 40%, her claim doesn't make sense no matter how you look at the data.

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find:
- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

With enough solar, energy is free.
So much for the lies that renewable energy is expensive.
Plus, this smart plan encourages energy use during the free hours, which lowers costs by lowering demand in the other hours.

Australia to offer three hours free solar per day to millions
Australia will offer at least three hours of free solar power every day to households including those without solar panels under an energy-saving programme that is expected to go live in 2026, energy minister Chris Bowen said on Tuesday.

Nancy Mace consistently follows “as a survivor…” with some bullshit that is not consistent with being a survivor.
I’ll give her the benefit of the doubt that she’s not lying about being a survivor, but she’s never shown any support or empathy for other survivors; only made it about herself.

House Republicans are back from their taxpayer-funded vacation.
But they do know how to work hard: when billionaires need a tax break or Argentina needs a bailout, they’re all over it.
It’s only when working Americans need health care that House Rs are nowhere to be found.

Are there any watch dogs he hasn't gotten rid of?
Why did Trump Admin get rid of the top watchdog at the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA)?

While Trump and Republicans refuse to protect health care for millions, I’ll keep fighting in Congress to lower costs & fund ALS research.
