Nothing better than being back home for breakfast with the family after a busy few weeks in Washington. Hope you’re all able to spend some time with family this holiday season, too.
For the guy who thinks "low ratings" is the worst thing you can say about someone, this must cut @realDonaldTrump, co-producer and star of this year's Kennedy Center Honors, to the core! (Though you'd think his polling numbers would have the same effect.)
Bruce and I named Bailey after George Bailey from It’s A Wonderful Life.
We had hoped that our Bailey would be as kind and loyal as the fictional George Bailey—and that he would stand up to Big Bank executives too.
Our family is wishing you a happy, healthy, wonderful holiday.
BREAKING: “PUT TO SLEEP” — Trump calls for Stephen Colbert’s head in late-night meltdown.
Last night, after CBS aired the Kennedy Center Honors, a pretaped special hosted by none other than Donald Trump from the freshly rebranded — and legally questionable — “Trump Kennedy Center,” Donald Trump had a full-blown public mental breakdown.
For once, his target wasn’t a prosecutor, a judge, or a foreign leader. It was Stephen Colbert, America’s most relentless late-night satirist, who once again got under Trump’s skin so badly that the emotionally unstable Commander-in-Chief erupted online in an explosive late-night rage.
After CBS aired a rerun of The Late Show, Trump went into a rampage on Truth Social, calling Colbert a “pathetic trainwreck” and demanding the network “put him to sleep.” Yes, that’s the phrase Trump decided to use. Not cancel. Not retire. “Put him to sleep.” Like an unwanted pet.
Unfortunately, the rant didn’t stop there. Trump accused Colbert of having “no talent,” mocked his ratings, and declared that CBS — along with ABC and NBC — should have their broadcast licenses revoked for daring to air criticism of him. He then capped the tirade by wishing everyone a “Merry Christmas,” as if threatening media figures were just part of the holiday cheer.
The meltdown came just days after Colbert skewered Trump on-air for his ego-driven takeover of the Kennedy Center and his obsession with being seen as a cultural icon. Colbert mocked Trump’s hunger for applause, joking that the former president wants to run Broadway like a personal vanity project. The jokes clearly landed — and Trump clearly couldn’t take it.
Even by Trump standards, the outburst was unhinged. Calling for the silencing of comedians, invoking violent imagery, and demanding government punishment for speech he doesn’t like isn’t just thin-skinned — it’s authoritarian.
CBS has already announced The Late Show will end next year, citing industry economics, not politics. But Trump’s response revealed something deeper: a fixation on revenge, an inability to tolerate mockery, and a willingness to use government power to punish critics.
This wasn’t about ratings. It wasn’t about comedy. It was about a man who cannot stand being laughed at — and who wants to make sure no one ever does again.
Trump can try to rename the Kennedy Center after himself, but — at this point, at least — he still cannot cancel the First Amendment. And every unhinged post just proves Colbert’s point: the jokes about the infinitely mockable Alzheimer’s patient in the White House are not cruel, they are documentary.

The DOJ is redacting the names of possible Epstein co-conspirators and at the same time exposing the names of survivors.
Why are we protecting people who harmed and abused women and children?
The Trump administration is full of shit. According to Dems review they’ve released less than 40,000 pages many completely redacted since the deadline on December 19. When they say they’ve released hundreds of thousands it defies credulity.
Anti-abortion extremists will stop at nothing to ban abortion and block women from getting abortion pills.
Their latest tactic? Hijacking environmental laws & claiming mifepristone is **poisoning the water.**
It’s as crazy as it is dangerous.

Holy shit. Dude, you lost. 30 Dem judges said so. 32 Republican judges said so. SCOTUS said so twice. Dozens and dozens of election officials and Republican governors said so.
85 million Americans said so.
You. Lost.
Shocker: Donald Trump is lying again. 🙄
He didn't lower prescription drug prices — he sided with Big Pharma, rolled back cost-lowering efforts, and left families paying more.
He knows the truth. He just doesn't care.
.@POTUS: I’m speaking to you as a soldier. 13 of my brothers who did not return home from war are on my back. They did not die for THIS.
I gave this country 24 years of service. I won’t sit silent while you aim the weapons of war inward on American soil.
REMEMBER YOUR OATH!
Another brilliant idea by the Trump WH to put the ‘Rapid React’ campaign ‘own the libs’ juvenile delinquents in charge of DOJ comms. Very professional.
There are now more people in ICE detention than ever before — 68,440 people.
Most have never committed a crime. Many are being held in facilities with horrific conditions. It’s cruel and inhumane, and it must end.

Holy shit, this Republican-led Congress set a dubious record for the LOWEST legislative output of a 1st year of a new presidency.
Republicans are a major failure.
2026 is coming.
