Radical idea: The next Dem nominee should run on making bribery actually illegal. In every way.

A freedom-loving people will not stand for the corruption and the power grabs we’re witnessing daily in our country. That's why millions of Americans took to the streets a few days ago, and it's why elections like the Virginia governor race will show the path to a better future a few days from now.

Included is this screenshot of CBP commander Greg Bovino allegedly “throwing tear gas into a crowd without justification.”

Just to be clear, #SCOTUS has done nothing to indicate any interest in this case besides calling for a response—something that a *single* justice can request, and that is *not* remotely predictive of a cert. grant.

Everything else is standard practice for *all* cases filed in the Supreme Court.

BREAKING on MSNBC:

The federal prosecutor in charge of investigating whether Sen. Adam Schiff should be charged with mortgage fraud has told her bosses in Washington she did not think the case was strong enough to move forward — via @kendilanian-nbc.bsky.social @carolleonnig.bsky.social

One month after her Election Day and Rep.-elect @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social still hasn’t been sworn in.

All because Speaker Johnson would rather have AZ-07 constituents go without a representative in Congress than for Americans to know what’s in the Epstein files.

If you're lucky enough to be financially stable and have a few bucks to spare, now would be a really good time to donate to America's food banks. They've already lost a ton of funding this year and with SNAP on the line, more are going to need them in the coming weeks.

USAF has positioned B-1 bombers near Venezuela, signalling an escalation in military pressure, the WSJ reports.

Reporter: Any more details on the president's Walter Reed visit? The doctor mentioned advanced imaging. What procedure was he referring to? 

Leavitt: Advanced imaging is something that presidents receive and people receive when they go to the doctor.

MORE: Plaintiffs in this lawsuit just filed notice of an alleged violation.

They say they did so w/out conferral out of concern the feds are “simply ignoring the court’s TRO.”

Trump says he’s making military decisions based on what random “friends of mine” tell him about crime.

Boom

He’s always seemed like a terrible person to me. Will never forget that awful speech at the awards show. That was the real Jordan.

I am begging the mainstream media to talk less about the East Wing & more about the loss of SNAP funding for the next few days.

The East Wing is gone. We can’t change that.

We *can* help people prepare for the loss of SNAP.

We can urge folks to donate to food banks.

We can give them warning.

I was interviewed on the Kill Switch podcast about @iceblock.app, the mutual aid group @norcalresist.bsky.social, and the insane situation we’re in where Apple and Google are collaborating with Trump to censor apps at will podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/k...

ROSENBERG: “.. The share of the country in expansion mode these past six weeks, at 18%, is the lowest share since May 2020.

.. The reality is .. at least qualitatively, the economy is in a mild recession -- stock market doesn't see it, but the bond market does.”

I was scared for him the whole time. I think the inflatables and folk singing are a better tactic.

During this Republican shutdown, groups across the country like @foodlifeline.bsky.social are stepping up to the plate to keep food on the table for workers missing pay.

This is such critical work – but it shouldn’tbe necessary. It’s time for Republicans to come to the table and end this.
