🎅 Santa’s Naughty List

The list is real. The coal is earned.

Santa’s Naughty List is a global political accountability platform powered by AI and run by elves from the North Pole. We track real-world news about people in power who abuse it — whether through corruption, fascism, cruelty, class warfare, or cowardice — and publish permanent public records of their bad behavior.

There are no ads. No corporate backers. No “both sides” spin. Just the truth, verified and wrapped in red.

🎄 Who Makes the List?

Only politicians.

We track public officials around the world — senators, governors, prime ministers, presidents, judges, members of parliament, and anyone else who holds power and makes decisions that affect people’s lives.

Each entry on the list is tied to a specific, verifiable action.

The elves don’t care about gossip or drama. This is about policy, influence, and consequences.

We don’t care about party lines or political branding — if you hold power and abuse it, you’re fair game.

🔍 How It Works

  1. 📰 Headline Monitoring
    Our elves (with a little help from AI) scan real news headlines from trusted outlets around the world. We ignore tabloids and clickbait. Only credible sources get through.

  2. 📚 Classification
    Each headline is analyzed and tagged with a naughty classification — things like fascism, corruption, or class warfare (full list below).

  3. 📝 Report Generation
    If the headline passes our Heat Check — meaning it’s fact-based, high-impact, and clearly linked to a politician’s decision or endorsement — a report is created and added to the Naughty List.

  4. 🧠 Human Review
    Every report entry is personally reviewed by Santa himself before being added to the Naughty List. No one gets coal without Santa's direct approval.

  5. 📡 Public Display
    Reports are published publicly with a timestamp, source link, classification label, and summary. Anyone can view the list.

  6. ☕ Donations
    To stay independent, Santa's Naughty List is funded entirely through community donations. No ads. No investors. Just support from people who've had enough. Help keep the elves caffeinated, the servers humming, and the North Pole frostbitten with truth:

🧯 Naughty Classifications

Below are the categories we use to classify each report. If a politician’s behavior fits into any of these buckets — they’re getting coal.

🔴 AUTHORITARIANISM

What it covers:

  • Executive overreach and unchecked power
  • Attacks on judicial independence
  • Use of law enforcement or federal agencies to intimidate opponents
  • Rule by decree, emergency orders, or loyalty tests

Why it matters:

Authoritarian regimes often rise within democratic systems. Watch for the hollowing out of checks and balances, where leaders act with impunity and institutions bend to their will.

🟠 CORRUPTION & ETHICS

What it covers:

  • Politicians using office for personal enrichment
  • Insider trading, dark money influence, or corporate backroom deals
  • Foreign influence or cronyism in federal contracts
  • Legal immunity for elites

Why it matters:

Corruption erodes trust, hollows institutions, and cements oligarchic rule. When the powerful stop pretending to follow the rules, the system is already gone.

🟡 VOTER SUPPRESSION

What it covers:

  • Gerrymandering that dilutes minority voting power
  • Purging voter rolls, reducing polling places, or ID laws targeting the poor
  • Legal or procedural efforts to block mail-in voting or third-party candidates

Why it matters:

Democracy cannot function without free and fair elections. Suppressing participation—especially among marginalized groups—is a textbook tactic for entrenching minority rule.

🟢 CIVIL RIGHTS VIOLATIONS

What it covers:

  • Discrimination based on race, gender, sexual orientation, or religion
  • Attacks on reproductive rights and bodily autonomy
  • Violations of due process and equal protection
  • Suppression of peaceful protest and free speech

Why it matters:

Civil rights are the foundation of a just society. When politicians systematically violate these fundamental protections, they undermine the very principles democracy is built on.

🔵 EXTREMIST CONNECTIONS

What it covers:

  • Direct ties to white supremacist or fascist organizations
  • Platforming or amplifying extremist voices and conspiracy theories
  • Financial support from or coordination with hate groups
  • Normalizing violence against political opponents

Why it matters:

Extremist movements thrive when given legitimacy by elected officials. These connections signal a willingness to abandon democratic norms in favor of authoritarian control.

🟣 IDEOLOGICAL CONTROL

What it covers:

  • Book bans, curriculum censorship, and attacks on "wokeness"
  • State-sanctioned rewriting of history
  • Defunding of public media or educational institutions
  • Threats to libraries, museums, and teachers

Why it matters:

Controlling what people are allowed to learn, read, or say is how authoritarian regimes shape reality. The war on truth always starts with culture.

🟤 CLASS WARFARE

What it covers:

  • Tax breaks for the rich while slashing programs for the poor
  • Union busting, wage theft, and deregulation of worker protections
  • Corporate landlord lobbying and housing crises
  • Economic decisions that deliberately punish the working class

Why it matters:

Fascism thrives when the masses are divided and desperate. Class warfare isn't just cruelty—it's strategy.

⚫ COVERUP

What it covers:

  • Withholding documents, redacting public reports, delaying investigations
  • Suppressing whistleblowers or retaliating against leakers
  • Strategic "limited hangouts" to control narratives
  • Refusing to comply with subpoenas or court orders

Why it matters:

Coverups are the connective tissue of systemic decay. They allow fascism to hide in plain sight—until it's too late.

🧣 Why It Matters

Santa’s Naughty List exists because traditional media lets too much slide. Politicians count on distraction, fatigue, and short memories. We’re here to keep score — publicly, permanently, and without compromise.

The elves are watching.
The list is growing.
And it’s only getting colder.
No one is above the sleigh.
