This Christmas Eve, let us remember that it wasn’t the CEOs and billionaires who saved us during COVID-19. It was the janitors, nurses, cleaning crews, grocery and food workers with their hard, often invisible labor.

The rich and powerful don’t get their wages garnished when they default on a loan. They declare bankruptcy and end up paying pennies on the dollar, if anything. Like Trump did many, many times.

So they were undocumented immigrants who survived with the help of the very indigenous people whose descendants ICE is now harassing because they look brown?

Good for Alfonsi. More of this resistance, backbone, and principle.
🔥WOW— Sharyn Alfonsi to her @60Minutes colleagues: “Bari Weiss spiked it without a call to discuss… a political decision… we have effectively handed Trump a kill switch… we go from an investigative powerhouse to a STENOGRAPHER FOR THE STATE… corporate censorship…”

More than $2.9 billion in reconciliation funds was allocated to beef up troop housing allowances. Now it’s being used for $1,776 checks.

Trump is taking money out their housing allowances approved by Congress and giving it to them in a “bonus” so it looks like it came from him. It’s just a shell game with military pay from the ultimate con man

January 6 was like a much dumber version of Hitler’s Beer Hall Putsch and yet a plurality of American voters were like, Yeah, let’s give that guy the nuke codes again. An absolutely world historical debacle of societal ignorance. I’ll never understand it.

Daniel Dale would be better off listing the claims that Trump made that are actually true, but then I guess he'd be out of a job. CNN could get no ad revenue from a blank page. www.cnn.com/2025/12/17/p...

I don't think Trump even mentions drugs here, which is supposedly one of the reasons for American aggression toward Venezuela
Trump on Venezuela: "Getting land, oil rights, whatever we had -- they took it away because we had a president that maybe wasn't watching. But they're not gonna do that. We want it back. They took our oil rights. We had a lot of oil there. They threw our companies out. And we want it back."
