If you’re celebrating the mass deportations of distraught, exhausted human beings seeking refuge, you probably shouldn’t be singing sweet songs about a baby with “no crib for a bed.”

Christian, If You're Supporting ICE, You Shouldn't Be Celebrating Christmas
Christian, I’m trying to reconcile two things I’ve seen this season, maybe you can help me make sense of them…

Trump is so predictable. His Christmas posts were filled with hate and hostility. Almost word for word of the ones he posts every day. Americans know this is not normal or presidential. He has no filter or self control. Maga says he is being authentic, no, he just thinks he is invincible

This is VERY high up on my list of things we need to do better in 2026: Find a way to use the Admin's claim they oppose antisemitism to impose a cost for the antisemitism they routinely push out.
There's literally an EO forbidding federal funding for antisemitism!

Nöel Coward called his style of work ‘touch and Gauguin,’ and although this sounds pretentious, it was his way of describing the colours he used. The majority of his paintings are of Jamaica; he first visited the island with Ian Fleming, in 1948.

You know how Americans are surprised to learn that gun deaths are rare in most other countries, pedestrian-centered cities are normal, or everybody else uses metric? That, but discovering that the rest of the world moved to EVs.
It's funny how us parochial Americans generally seem to perceive that the EV revolution is stalling or reversing when in fact it's accelerating rapidly worldwide. 25% of cars sold globally in 2025 were EVs!

Ironically, Bari Weiss' version of "rebuilding trust" - making the news way more conservative and credulous toward Trump - would rebuild trust among the right. Once the big news orgs are completely captured by far-right oligarchs, they'll trust the news again! They just won't be doing journalism.

The right spent decades screaming "Everything the mainstream media says is a lie, don't trust them!" then even gullible well-intentioned journalists ask "How can we rebuild trust?" and they think solid reporting will do the trick. That completely misunderstands what brought us to this point.
Bari Weiss just sent this Christmas Eve email to the CBS News staff about "building trust," which includes her tripling down on spiking the CECOT piece "to make sure it's comprehensive and fair."
One CBS staffer tells me: "She really has no idea how insulting she comes across."
