Someone may have made tens of millions betting oil would fall right before Trump announced progress with Iran. If that trade was based on advance knowledge, this is not just a market story.

Trump was asked whether the U.S. would defend Taiwan in the event of a Chinese invasion. There’s a normal version of this answer: “U.S. policy toward Taiwan has not changed.” But telling the world that Xi asked, then framing the answer as: “Only I know,” makes it sound like it’s a negotiable point.

While Trump threatens to “blow up” Oman, muses about taking Cuba, and spends months trashing NATO allies and flirting with withdrawal, a Russian drone just slammed into an apartment building in Galați, Romania — a NATO member.

Trump runs foreign policy through family and friends instead of actual diplomats. America’s interests are no longer the priority.

People hate watching government become sponsored content while families are being squeezed at the pump and DOT is quietly lowering air traffic control hiring targets. That’s the part people can’t unsee.

The CIA’s job is intelligence, not helping a president’s media ecosystem manufacture revenge narratives against former officials and political opponents.

Over the weekend, the United States government hosted what could best be described as a prayer meeting on the Mall. This was a weekend that represented a negative change in the drive towards autocracy of the Trump administration.

“Corruptor in Chief”: This isn’t an “interesting coincidence.” It’s corruption in broad daylight. Trump isn’t just bending government toward his own interests. He’s turning the presidency into a family-run monetized access scheme.

The problem is not what Blanche used to be. It is what he is still doing. If you use the DOJ to serve Trump personally, the old title still fits.

Trump says he is holding Taiwan’s weapons package “in abeyance” because “it depends on China.” Then he calls it “a very good negotiating chip.” Taiwan is not a bargaining chip. It is a democracy facing an authoritarian threat.

Timberwolves coach Chris Finch on Jaden McDaniels: “He talked all series and he backed it up all series. That’s called legitimate tough. He not only led us tonight scoring wise, but Jamal Murray was 4-for-17. I don’t think he scored on Jaden the whole game. That’s what you want.”

@sascampaigns.bsky.social investigation revealed 204,000+ hours of illegal sewage spills occurred in English waters last year, with Scottish Water only monitoring 30% of overflows in Scotland. I asked the UK Government to take tougher action to ensure water companies are held to account.

“To protect and defend this constitution, you can refuse illegal orders. You MUST refuse illegal orders. No-one has to carry out orders that violate the law. Don’t give up the ship.”

Sonoma showed up on Dec 3 to call out the real “signs of fascism” — banning books, erasing history, intimidation, voter suppression. Our valley sees the warning signs, and we’re standing together. #Sonoma #WakeUpSonoma #DefendDemocracy

Found a black widow on the stove under the frying pan handle… I was gonna wash it… 14: when are we going to the store? Me: as soon as I kill this black widow. … 14: hope it bites you. Wha? I did not raise my kids to be like that. I’m about to tell him: I decided I’m not going to the store.
