New York City went 12 days without a murder in November / December. That's tied for the longest stretch in history, according to the NYPD. As someone who was here when there were 6+ murders per day in this town, it continues to amaze me how safe the place is.

This week, Trump quietly released his National Security Strategy.

It totally abandons the idea that we should stand up for freedom & human rights around the world.

Instead, it lectures our European allies & embraces authoritarian leaders who enrich the Trump family & their billionaire friends.

The White House’s new anti-media website includes denunciations of:

-ABC, which bribed the president
-CBS, which bribed the president and moved away from fact-based journalism trying to appeal to him and his fans
-WaPo, which spiked a Harris endorsement and tilts coverage in Trump’s favor

Fools.

Genuine question: has any GOP member of house or senate spoken out about the Dept of defense and Hegseth threatening sen Mark Kelly with lawfare? Beyond disturbing

Especially any veterans?

We have 500 op-eds about how Democrats should somehow ensure no one in the country with lefty vibes ever says anything that's not strictly on message. It could alienate voters!

Meanwhile, the President of the United States, God-Emperor of the GOP, just said "quiet, Piggy" to a reporter on camera.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

I hope this ceasefire holds & I am glad the hostages are free, but this is Trump’s *actual record* so far.
