I simply don’t understand the minds of people like Bari Weiss

how fucked up do you have to be to spend all your time pretending you’re a Real Journalist and then you get put in charge of a huge media outlet and immediately do propaganda

yeah, yeah, the hypocrisy is the point, but fucking hell

O'DONNELL: Why did you pardon Changpeng Zhao?

TRUMP: Are you ready? I don't know who he is

O'DONNELL: His crypto exchange Binance helped facilitate a $2b purchase of World Liberty Financial's stablecoin. And they you pardoned him.

TRUMP: Here's the thing -- I know nothing about it

Most innings in a single World Series: 75 (1912)

Most innings in a decisive WS Game 7: 12 (1924)

2025 would beat *both* records if it makes it to the 13th.

“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy—they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess...”

Trump is at the Halloween party at MAL

“Official theme is Gatsby and ‘a little party never killed nobody’, we’re told.”

That a federal judge had to block the Trump administration from pushing millions of Americans into hunger says everything about this President and the party he leads.

Grateful to our Attorney General for being on the frontlines of this fight.

In a major victory, a court ruled the Trump administration must use emergency funds to provide food stamps to Americans.
 
No one should choose between paying bills and buying groceries.
 
We'll continue our lawsuit to fight for our families and the services they deserve.

The top three things Jesus was on about were feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and welcoming the stranger. Rich men have convinced so-called Christians to starve the hungry, gut health care, and deport the stranger to enrich themselves. It’s astoundingly anti-Christ.

Powerful and moving interview with Virginia Giuffre's brother Sky and sister-in-law Amanda:

"He's just Andrew. He's no longer a prince... This normal girl, from a normal family, has taken down a prince. We are so proud of her."

"She was extraordinary. She did the extraordinary."

FACT: In July, Marsha Blackburn voted for the largest cut to SNAP in the history of the program.

Now, 700,000 TN children, seniors & people w/ disabilities are going to miss meals and she’s pretending to care b/c she’s running for Governor.

She thinks your too dumb to remember

Donald Trump is trying to normalize authoritarianism. We cannot let that happen. We cannot take the bait that normalizes things that are fundamentally wrong.

Vladeck: Even if you accept the predicate that these drug cartels are foreign terrorist organizations, that still doesn’t get you anywhere close to legal authority to use military force. They’re trying to blur and sort of collapse the distinction between two regimes we have…

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

apparently in an early version of the game, every once in a while, if you had enough open doors in a straight line, you'd be able to see a shadowy figure watching you from several rooms away. it would always vanish before you could reach it.

In response to the Washington Post defending Trump’s bulldozing the East Wing of the WH, I canceled my subscription to the paper I’ve read since growing up in Northern Virginia.

Millions of Americans are already learning that their health insurance costs for 2026 are going way up.

I want to hear from you so we can make this impossible for the GOP to ignore the consequences of their policies.

If your premiums are going up, reply below and please share your story.

What I wrote on Saturday: "For my part, I don’t simply assume Trump will try to run in 2028; I expect Trump to try to run in 2028."

What Trump said today: "I would love to do it. I have the best numbers ever. Am I not ruling it out? You'll have to tell me."
