Trump transition team signs White House agreement
Finally, the Trump transition team has signed a memorandum of understanding with the Biden White House, incoming chief of staff Susie Wiles announced on Tuesday — a move that clears the way for coordination with the federal agencies they will soon take over. The Trump team’s unprecedented delay in signing these agreements, weeks after being declared the winner of the election, had alarmed former officials and ethics experts who warned it could lead to conflicts of interest and leave the new government unprepared to govern on day one. Buddy, there is no way this government will be prepared to govern on day 700, let alone day 1.

Trump border chief threatens jail for Denver mayor amid deportation dispute
In a terrifying glimpse of how disobedience might be treated under the Trump II administration, the MAGA cult leader's deportation attack dog Thomas Homan threatened to JAIL Denver Mayor Mike Johnston after the latter vowed to resist any Trump team effort to deport his city's residents. “Me and the Denver mayor, we agree on one thing; he’s willing to go to jail. I'm willing to put him in jail," said Homan to Sean Hannity during a recent appearance on Trump's unofficial propaganda network.

Nancy Mace, now targeting transgender lawmaker, called herself "pro-transgender rights" in 2023
Republican Rep. Nancy Mace as recently as LAST YEAR called herself “pro-transgender rights” and said she supported children exploring gender identities with different hairstyles, clothing, and pronouns. In 2021, she even sponsored a bill to ban discrimination based on sex and gender identity. What changed? Oh, Republicans gerrymandered her district and she no longer had to appeal to Democratic voters...so time for those principles to go right in the trash!

Trump team claims credit for Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire – hours after Biden announced it
In predictable and pathetic fashion, Donald Trump has tried to claim credit for the Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire hours after President Joe Biden announced it from the White House. The Biden administration reportedly briefed the president-elect’s national security team — still a few months away from taking control of such matters — to inform them of the agreement and the commitments made, but Trump officials were clearly not directly involved in the negotiations. The deal, which marks a major breakthrough in the devastating conflict that has gripped the Middle East, was actually brokered by Biden who called it a “historic” moment for the world. “Today’s announcement is a critical step … and so I applaud the courageous decision made by the leaders of Lebanon and Israel to end the violence,” he said in remarks from the Rose Garden Tuesday.

Trump expected to name Kevin Hassett to lead National Economic Council
Great. Who the hell is this guy, you might be wondering? Well, he was Trump's chief economic advisor during his first term and now will be the point man on negotiating an extension to Trump's deficit-exploding tax cuts for the megawealthy. So glad to see him again.

Trump plots disastrous Day 1 attack on Biden legacy
350.org: A new POLITICO report shows that Donald Trump is planning to revive the destructive Keystone XL pipeline project as soon as he gets back into office — even though no companies are trying to build it anymore! This kind of short-sighted nihilism is exactly what we can expect from a Trump administration intent on extracting every last drop of profit out of the land, no matter how many people get hurt or how much permanent damage is done — which is why we need to start fighting back ASAP! Will you add your name to let him Trump know we won’t stand for the revival of the Keystone XL pipeline or the rest of his destructive, regressive fossil fuel agenda?

Senators rip US airlines for raking in billions in so-called junk fees
If you've been on a plane anytime recently, you'll have noticed that flying really sucks right now! Every possible aspect of the flying experience — from legroom to being able to sit next to your kid to the once-free meals to the ability to bring a fricking CARRY-ON BAG — has now been monetized in an effort to extort even more profits out of a captive populace who really don't have the time to drive three days to visit their aunt in Tulsa. All these indignities have proven to be wildly profitable for the airline companies, who have made $12.4 BILLION just on these extra fees in the past couple of years. "As we head into the Thanksgiving weekend," Sen. Richard Blumenthal stated, "we regret that travelers will be charged millions of dollars in fees that have no basis in cost to the airlines but simply fatten their bottom lines. Airline CEOs will be called in to testify.

What could get more expensive if Trump launches a new trade war with Mexico and Canada
Spoiler alert: it's everything.

Angry Rudy Giuliani argues with judge overseeing defamation payout: "I can't pay my bills"
Oh no! Poor Rudy, the notorious racist, pervert, insurrectionist, and all-around scumbag, is fast approaching rock bottom. “The implications you are making against me are wrong. I have no car, no credit card, no cash. Everything I have is tied up. They have put stop orders on my business accounts, and I can't pay my bills!" cried Giuliani at a hearing today. Why yes, we WOULD like a second helping of schadenfreude this Thanksgiving!

Gavin Newsom trolls Elon Musk over electric vehicles
The California governor doubled down on his state's commitment to green vehicles by promising to give a $7,500 rebate to Californians who purchase electric vehicles in the event that Trump cancels the federal tax credit implemented by the Biden administration. "We're not turning back on a clean transportation future — we're going to make it more affordable for people to drive vehicles that don't pollute." Newsom's plan just might exclude Tesla, however, instead offering the incentives to carmakers with smaller market shares. Elon Musk predictably called the move "insane," which more accurately describes his new best friend Trump's plan to tank the American economy for no f*cking reason.
