Looks like Trump has tasked the CIA and other elements of the intel community to spy on the Vatican after their criticism of the Iran War. They're looking for kompromat on the pope in the best Soviet tradition. www.kenklippenstein.com/p/us-spies-o...

Unsurprisingly, Trump's sinking to another new low

The peace President with more bombings
Exclusive: The CIA carried out a drone strike earlier this month on a port facility in Venezuela, sources told CNN, marking the first known US attack on a target inside that country. This is the attack Trump has repeatedly alluded to in recent days. www.cnn.com/2025/12/29/p...

A dirty rat
I know there is a lot going on, but CIA agents were killed, captured, or compromised because Trump sold their names to our enemies.

Just thought I should remind everyone of that.

Trump doesn't care--they're just "suckers and losers" to him
"Exposing this information put people's lives at risk... We know people who have died serving their country this way. Compromising top secret material, especially the compartmentalized top secret information is a travesty"

The Twelve Dissents of Christmas: The Eighth Day
![]() |
| De-legitimatize, De-legitimatize... |
On the eighth day of Christmas:
Anybody else out there just a teensy bit curious why Michigan republicans sued to end the election recount because there was no voter fraud but are now trying to pass three voter suppression bills because of voter fraud? Anybody out there just a teensy bit doubtful of the Trump campaign's motive in vociferously denouncing all of the recount efforts? Anybody else wondering exactly what it is the CIA knows about Russian interference in our election that the Trump people are so afraid of the American people knowing about?
In the end, it might just end up being so much bluster (or not) but the questions are real, they're valid, and, as an added bonus, they further serve to de-legitimatize the Trump presidency. In the end, the questions about where President Obama was born or whether or not he was a Muslim proved to be a whole lot of nothing, but it didn't stop the press from covering it and it didn't stop the Obama administration from having to answer questions about them. And we should be more than happy to return the favor.
Welcome to our fucking world, republicans!
Never let anyone forget that Trump got slaughtered in the popular vote and that there are all kinds of doubts about the legitimacy of his electoral college "victory."
In the words of The Call, "...I don't think there are any Russians/And there ain't no Yanks/Just corporate criminals/Playin' with tanks...."
Fuck Donald Trump,

Nothing to see here
And it's a slippery slope that leads from beacon of freedom to despotic nation.
I don't know exactly how one changes the thought processes of Americans on a policy that not only stains our national image but shows a decided lack of empathy for human suffering, but I have to wonder how most Americans would feel if rectal feeding or waterboarding were used by suspected terrorists on our men and women in uniform.
I fear I may not like our response to that one, either.
Peace,
emaycee
