Kristi Noem is guilty of crimes against humanity and needs to face justice.

📌 She made the final call to defy a court order to halt deportation flights, sending people into the hellscape of CECOT, a place the UN has compared to a torture chamber.

Prosecute her and everyone involved.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a heteromultivalent nanogel capable of killing some of the most dangerous bacteria known to medicine- with over 99.9% effectiveness against P. aeruginosa. It also showed strong antibacterial effects against other major threats, including E. coli and MRSA.

This is a win for due process.

The Trump administration was keeping immigrants with ZERO criminal records locked up in detention for weeks and months on end. A judge just ruled that these individuals must be entitled to bond hearings. abcnews.go.com/Politics/tho...
Thousands of immigrants could be eligible for bond hearings, striking down DHS policy: Judge
The decision could potentially allow thousands of immigrants who have been subject to mandatory detention to be released.

ICE pepper spray disabled woman using a cane—directly at her face from point blank range.

Agents then shove her down hard to the ground—after she was already incapacitated and stumbling backwards.

This is second incident of excessive force in St. Paul, Minnesota this past week.

I'm going to assume that Leavitt is a sister-in-law? Why did Leavitt 's brother marry this deportable woman? Inquiring minds want to know...
I'm sure she's fine with this—as if she's anything else, or takes any action to interfere in this situation, she needs to resign today. America can't have government officials who adopt one policy for their friends and family and one for strangers. She either needs to say this is fine or quit today.

Lib Dem leader Edward Davey calls for a national investigation into Russian political interference in British politics:

"Given Reform won't, he must. So will he know launch a national investigation into Russian infiltration into our politics?"

I had just published a deep dive 🧵 on X today when the transcript of the insane phone call between Steve Witkoff & Yuri Ushakov leaked today.

It did not come as a surprise for me, as I had been working on this thread for a few days already.
It’s very clear who Witkoff is.

Trump can't cancel US observance of World AIDS Day, New York Times. He can only tell the White House that they can't use money for it. Bad headline.
SCOOP: The Trump administration has instructed employees and grantees not to use U.S. funds to commemorate World AIDS Day — because the observance was started by the World Health Organization.

If you’re wondering why there’s a lull in the Epstein files discussion, it’s because the law that just passed gave Pamela Jo 30 days to release the files. So we’re all waiting to see how she tries to sabotage it. The discussion will pick back up in earnest on December 20th.

"Anyone making more than 700 percent of the federal poverty line would no longer be eligible for the subsidies."

THIS was the caveat?? The poverty line is $30,000 for a family of four. 700% is $260,000! In one of the most expensive states to live in, Washington, that's TOO high!

Poor Trump. He just can't handle the idea that he's getting old. That women won't want him anymore for his bod (I doubt they ever did). And that death is far closer to him now than his youth.

Welcome to reality, Trump.

Oh, that's right, he still lives in a fantasy.
