Massive White House Protest Planned While Corporate Media Finally Defends A Journalist, and Swiss Lawmakers Push For A Serious Bribery Investigation Into Trump "Gifts"

This great news surely ruined Trump’s Thanksgiving

Scott Dworkin Nov 28

While Trump was holed up at his Florida bunker for Thanksgiving, I’m glad to have some great news for you today. I hope it gives you a break from the madness—even if only for a moment.

With just over 11 months until the midterms, we’re working full-speed ahead on all fronts—thanks to the support of this awesome community here on Substack. And right now we need all hands on deck. So if you haven’t yet, please invest in our journalism, and help us lead the resistance against Trump by becoming a paid subscriber today:

Let’s jump in.

A REAL PRESIDENT

Unlike the dumpster fire currently in office, it was nice to hear from a real president on Thanksgiving. Former President Barack Obama stated: “During this season of giving, let’s do what we can to give back to the communities that have given us so much. From our family to yours, have a wonderful Thanksgiving!”

WHITE HOUSE PROTEST PLANNED

There is a large protest planned in Washington, DC for December 13th. Organized by the group Refuse Fascism, their goal is to peacefully protest around the entirety of the White House grounds. Demonstrators will be delivering a “people’s indictment” of Trump, while calling for his impeachment and removal from office.

SWISS LAWMAKERS PUSH FOR PROBE

Two Swiss lawmakers are calling for a bribery investigation into gifts Trump got from a delegation seeking lower tariffs. The group gave Trump an engraved gold bar and a Rolex table clock. Around a week and a half later, Trump lowered the tariffs.

It’s great to see folks calling out this pure corruption.

ICE ARREST HITS CLOSE TO WHITE HOUSE

The mom of Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt’s godchild was recently detained by ICE, and is now facing deportation. Bruna Caroline Ferreira came to America as a child, and has been trying to get her green card as part of the DACA program.

Ferreira’s attorney Todd Pomerleau stated: “She didn’t commit a crime. She wasn’t breaking the law. She was following the laws Congress created for her to get a green card, and she got detained with no justification … That’s illegal.”

NYT STANDS UP TO TRUMP’S BROKEN BRAIN

Following an unhinged attack by Trump on one of The New York Times reporters who printed a revealing piece on his mental decline, the paper actually stood its ground.

They stated: “Our journalists [won’t] hesitate to cover this administration in the face of intimidation tactics like this … reporters like Katie Rogers … [help] the American people better understand their government and its leaders.”

Corporate media should’ve been defending reporters like this for the last decade. If they stood by their journalists more often, maybe Trump wouldn’t be able to bully them—and they might be willing to actually ask the hard questions.

A DOCTOR’S TAKE

When it comes to Trump’s broken brain, an analysis from reporters is one thing—but hearing it from an experienced doctor takes this to a whole new level. World-renowned Dr. Vin Gupta said this about Trump’s health: “It’s clear that there’s … cognitive decline. His response to somebody fainting in the Oval Office really conveyed that.”

Trump’s “confused a lot,” Gupta observed. “He sometimes mumbles sort of incoherent nonsense when he’s asked a question in the press pool, in the Oval Office.” Gupta said the White House is “worried” about his health, adding: “And frankly, as you piece this all together, there’s reason to be worried.”

Yet, with all of the evidence out there, the maga propaganda machine shows no sign of admitting the truth or slowing down. So we have to keep pushing back constantly, taking a sledgehammer to their lies. That’s why we work every day—even on Thanksgiving.

We’ve published our top-ranked news brief for more than 500 days straight. And our activism arm—The Watchdog Coalition—is helping to lead the resistance, just like we have for nearly a decade. We’ve reached lawmakers over half a million times in a year, while generating billions of impressions on social media to take on the Trump regime.

We do all of this without any corporate influence—no ads, no billionaires, no nonsense. But that means all of the fuel for our fight comes from our community here on Substack.

So if you haven’t yet, I hope you’ll back our movement against Trump by becoming a paid subscriber today:

Onward!

JUST A FEW COMMENTS: 

PLEASE NOTE: THERE IS NO SUPPORT FOR MAGA!
STAND UP & FIGHT FOR DEMOCRACY!

Discharge petitions, a fire hose of them, right now. Our Xmas present .

11 months until we elect a Democratic majority in Congress and finally remove these monsters from office.

Let the investigations begin!

I want a picture of Mikey's face when that happens.

Maybe we’ll be lucky and more GOP members quit before then.

Thank you Scott, hope your Thanksgiving or Thursday was great.

Sorry to hear about Leavitts relative. What I find more sorry, is she has done nothing to help, or own up to her. I guess one shouldn't expect empathy or anything else resembling humanity.

Thank you to the NYT for having their reporters back

Scott, the Leavitt situation is complicated. Karoline’s brother was seeking full custody of the child. One wonders if this action is a way for him to get it. I’m happy The NY Times finally did what it should have been doing since Trump’s Inauguration. It has hardly been the Iron Maiden.

That’s exactly what I’ve been thinking! When the estranged ex-fiancée of a prominent WH staffer’s BROTHER is plucked up by ICE…golly, it’s almost like an example of Trumpian retribution.

Reportedly, her ex-husband and ex-FIL have been encouraging her to "self-deport". To a country she hasn't lived in since she was six years old. I look forward to The Reckoning after the midterms.

That’s what I live for. Not retribution but the justice that has been delayed for far too long. I think Letitia James would sound great with Madam Attorney General of the United States in front of it. She doesn’t fuck around….😉😉

Gawd, Obama has a beautiful family! And they send such a humble, loving message. (I sooooo miss Obama!)

Yes, I also am thankful we had 4 years with President Biden after Trumps horrific administration. I could breathe. I saw empathy, integrity and intelligence from him and his administration!!!!

It was amazing - me, too! It was so nice to not wake each morning dreading the headlines about what the president had done to harm the world and planet and America during the night, and/or had done to humiliate someone else or America, what atrocities he’d committed, what insanely stupid and reactionary crap he’d said, etc etc!! I trusted the man at the helm with Biden and certainly Obama. It’s weird for me now, to genuinely abhor the POTUS and to know he sees me as the enemy and wants me dead. I’ve never felt that way before.

I feel the same way you do. President Biden brought us back after COVID. That is something trump could not have done

And unfortunately he has people surrounding him who probably know even less than he does if possible. Scott Bessent saying migrant cattle drives was actually a thing, for example.

I could not have said that better! Someone suggested the other day that if the orange blob tries to run for a third term, we will get President Obama to run against him!
