Trump Vetoes Defense Bill.  In last-ditch effort to save the names of those Confederates on government installations.  None (Rethug variety) dare call it insanity.

Trump Pardons More Miscreants.  Virtually all of whom have some ties to Trump:

Of the 65 pardons and commutations that Mr. Trump had granted before Wednesday, 60 have gone to petitioners who had a personal tie to Mr. Trump or who helped his political aims, according to a tabulation by the Harvard Law School professor Jack Goldsmith. Although similar figures do not exist for previous presidents, legal experts say that those presidents granted a far lower percentage to those who could help them personally and politically.

Sen Ben Sasse said it best:  “This is rotten to the core.”  Here, learn about Kushner’s dad.  No less than Chris Christie called Kushner’s crime ‘loathsome’. It was.

Trump Sorta Threatens To Veto Covid Relief Bill.  He wants $2000 checks. Now. Rethugs in disarray.

Raffensperger Caves On ‘No-Excuse’ Absentee Voting.  Once a Rethug, always a Rethug.

The Blackwater Massacre Of Iraqi Civilians.  As told by survivors.  Trump just pardoned these killers.  The worst of America.  As is Trump’s killing spree. A report on the last-minute executions he is carrying out.

LA’s AG Eliminates Cash Bail.  Usual Suspects Recoil.  It’s still gonna take some time.

Massachusetts Enacts Police Reform. Police Recoil.  It’s still gonna take some time.  Hopefully, not too much time:  OhioSouth Carolina.

There will be no open thread tomorrow since experiences teaches us that hardly anyone reads it on Christmas Day.
