Rev. Al Sharpton announced that he is organizing a rally in Washington on Jan. 20, coinciding with both the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump and the Martin Luther King Jr. federal holiday. The outspoken Trump critic announced the rally on MSNBC earlier this week. “While Trump supporters will be on one side of Washington watching him take the oath of office, I will be at the nation’s capital working to keep the dream alive,” Sharpton said. “There has never been a more important time to peacefully organize and mobilize.” In 2017, the largest anti-Trump rallies in Washington were held one day after his inauguration.

Over $2 billion and counting. Or around $2 million for every person they murdered on Oct 7.

After spending four months in federal prison for snubbing a congressional subpoena, conservative strategist Steve Bannon had a message Tuesday for prosecutors in cases against him and President-elect Donald Trump.
“You wait. The hunted are about to become the hunters,” Bannon said outside a New York court where he’s now facing a state conspiracy trial as soon as next month.
He stepped into a waiting car without elaborating on what “the hunters” intend to do.

to stop shoplifting without annoying honest customers 17 replies
Walmart is testing technology which would allow customers unlock secured display cases with their cell phones.
In the past few years, Walmart and other major retailers have increasingly locked up items in-store in a bid to prevent shoplifting.
The move has been controversial, with many customers complaining about having to wait for an employee to unlock the shelves in order to retrieve their items.
To speed up the process, Walmart is testing tech in a few hundred stores which allows cases to be unlocked using a cellphone, rather than by hand, Bloomberg reported.

students clears Ohio Legislature, heads

The Ohio Senate on Wednesday approved a ban on transgender students using bathrooms that fit their gender identities and sent the measure to Republican Gov. Mike DeWine.
The Republican-backed bill applies to public K-12 schools and institutions of higher education. It requires the schools to designate separate bathrooms, locker rooms and overnight accommodations “for the exclusive use” of either males and females, based on one's gender assigned at or near birth, in both school buildings and facilities used for a school-sponsored event. The legislation would not apply to school employees, emergencies or people helping young children or those with disabilities.

phone and computer after he predicted
Trump win 16 replies
The FBI has seized the CEO of Polymarket's phone and electronics after the election-betting platform successfully forecast Donald Trump's win.
Shayne Coplan, 26, was targeted at his Soho home during a dawn raid on Wednesday, sources told the New York Post.
The insider blasted the seizure as 'grand political theater at its worst'.
'They could have asked his lawyer for any of these things. Instead, they staged a so-called raid so they can leak it to the media and use it for obvious political reasons,' the source said.
Coplan was reportedly not arrested or given a reason for the raid, but it is thought to be linked to his accurate predictions.

Senator-elect Adam Schiff (D-CA) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that President-elect Donald Trump wanted to use the U.S. military against him.
Host Jake Tapper said, “President-elect Trump repeatedly called you the enemy from within. You and Speaker Pelosi specifically. And he said this about his enemies from within. Take a listen. On Fox News, Trump said, “I think the bigger problem are the people from within. We have some very bad people. We have some sick people, radical left lunatics, and I think they’re the and it should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by National Guard or if really necessary, by the military
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that “America deserves better” than President-elect Donald Trump’s cabinet picks.
Host Kristen Welker said, “I want to ask you now about that report that the House Ethics committee was set to vote on to release into former Congressman Matt Gaetz, of course, President-elect Trump’s pick to be the next attorney general. Speaker Johnson is now saying that the report should not be released. What’s your reaction to what Speaker Johnson is saying?”
Jeffries said, “Of course, it should be released. And that’s not just Democrats saying that. You have repeatedly seen Senate Republicans
It’s high time to shatter the myth of Nancy Pelosi as a master strategist. Nobody deserves more blame than the ridiculously self-titled “speaker emerita” for the Democrats’ $1 billion electoral collapse.
Under her ruthless leadership, her party lost the White House, the House, the Senate and the popular vote. You can’t say that enough.
Voters rejected the Dems coast to coast, even in Pelosi’s deepest-blue home city of San Francisco, which saw a 7-point swing to Donald Trump.
She’s the only speaker in history to have lost control of the House twice.
She’s finished.
Sarah Palin appears to be venting her frustration over not receiving one of Donald Trump's coveted cabinet spots after supporting the President-elect throughout his campaign.
The former Alaska governor and GOP vice-presidential candidate, an early and vocal supporter of Trump since at least 2011, made a series of cryptic posts to social media with screengrabs of other users who were questioning why she had not been drafted into his Cabinet.
Leftists have a master plan to ensure that President-elect Donald Trump’s economy tanks: They are not going to buy anything.
Leftists across the country are still reeling from Trump’s historic comeback victory, which saw him sweeping all seven swing states, garnering 312 electoral votes and also winning the popular vote after making historic gains in traditionally blue areas.
There was a sizable shift in the electorate and a clear mandate for change, but some leftists ardently disagree and have a plan to tank what everyone anticipates to be a strong economy under Trump’s leadership.
Leftwing “Morning Joe” hosts and vicious Donald Trump critics Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski revealed Monday they had a “personal” sit-down with the president-elect in Florida to “restart communications” — after conceding that voters overwhelmingly made their choice.

The Obamas Get Their Comeuppance
25 replies
The one person who knew that the Joe Biden presidency was something other than “Obama’s third term” was Barack Obama. If Obama had any illusions about his control over events, he was rudely disabused of them on July 21, 2024. This was the Sunday on which Biden dropped out of the presidential race and endorsed Kamala Harris.
The announcements caught Obama flatfooted. Biden had not consulted with his former boss either on his decision to drop out nor on his decision to endorse Harris. At 12:46 p.m. EDT, Biden posted on X his intention to withdraw.
Senator-elect Adam Schiff (D-CA) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that he did not overstate President-elect Donald Trump’s collusion with Russia during the 2016 campaign.
Host Jake Tapper said, “I’m looking at these nominees, Tulsi Gabbard to be director of National Intelligence possibly Kash Patel to be head of the FBI. Gaetz at DOJ, RFK Jr. at HHS and others and obviously he is bringing a group of people to disrupt. I mean, that is what Speaker Johnson said. I’m wondering about how much anybody in Washington is is being introspective at all about why there is this kind of opening for disruptors, if not necessarily these individuals.

Democratic lawmakers are admitting that they may have missed the mark in the 2024 election and are calling on their colleagues to stop 'preaching down' to Americans.
And Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (R-N.Y.) says that her party could learn a thing-or-two from Republicans after their sweeping wins this election cycle that will see the GOP with a trifecta in the House, Senate and White House next year.
Asked why Democrats lost, Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) said his party needs to stop 'canceling' people that might disagree with them on something.
Business is booming at a historic New York City bakery after Whoopi Goldberg claimed it refused to fill her order due to her political views, which the owner has vehemently denied.
On ABC’s the View last week, Goldberg accused an unnamed bakery of declining to deliver an order of “Charlotte Russe” desserts for her birthday, but received them anyway after sending someone else to pick them up:
(X Video) “My birthday dessert today was one of my mom’s favorites from when she was a kid, she talked about these all the time, they’re called Charlotte Russe. It’s a sponge cake with whipped cream and a cherry on top.
After a decade of assuring their viewers Donald Trump is “Hitler,” Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski announced Monday that they have already goose-stepped to Mar-a-Lago to kiss Orange Hitler’s ring.
The satisfaction this must have given President-elect Trump must rival only the satisfaction of his triumphant reelection. Because a Vichy needle is not easy to thread, the married quislings read their bombshell news from a carefully worded statement and rationalized it this way…“We didn’t see eye-to-eye on a lot of issues, and we told him so. What we did agree on was to restart communications,” said the very same people
