If you want to support independent journalism, but don't have anyone in particular to gift this to, consider gifting and letting Marisa choose a recipient who might benefit from the access! Everyone wins.

Trump claims “any document” signed by Joe Biden is “hereby terminated.”
He calls out executive orders later but obviously “any document” would be much broader and include legislation.
(He can’t legally do that but, as always, we get to watch how far he can push this without repercussions)

I need everybody to read this and understand what’s going on. These are spouses of US citizens in the country legally. They have entry clearance and green cards, they’ve passed background checks and have no criminal records. ICE is taking them anyway.

To be clear (since NPR isn't), the "joke" is premised on the fact that Trump is kidnapping people w/o due process and shipping them to offshore concentration slave camps in defiance of court orders, human rights accordances, the U.S. constitution, all tenets of common decency, and international law.
President Trump brought grievances to the Thanksgiving pardoning ceremony on Tuesday. He joked about sending the turkeys to a prison in El Salvador, and claimed that last year's turkey pardons were invalid. n.pr/48nUsYx

Welsh cookie baking day! My favorite holiday tradition. I bake hundreds of Welsh cookies (Welsh cakes I hear they're called elsewhere) and distribute to friends and family during the holidays. My grandfather was a baker and I learned it from him.
Heart feeling very full.

My 2025 car has a safety recall and when changing filters in our HVAC I discovered it was moldy, because both the UV filter and water sensor we had installed stopped working. And they're hard-wired. 😬

They caved in March so they could get a better deal now. They’re caving now so they can get a better deal in some indeterminate future. The better deal is always just beyond their reach, but continuing to cave will get them there. And if you don’t agree with that, you don’t understand Politics,

One of the talking points I keep seeing from Democrats is that part of the deal is that it will "ensure federal workers receive back pay" but that's the existing law!
That's not something you've won in negotiations. That's just the letter of the law. You don't get to claim that as a win.
