Brazil’s former Dictator Bolsonaro will begin serving his 27 year prison sentence for plotting a coup in his country.

If only Merrick Garland had gotten the job done when we had the chance and sent the orange felon and his insurrectionists to jail where they belong. Scumbag.

Schiaparelli’s 1937 evening coat represented true artistic collaboration. The illusory, surrealist motif was designed by artist Jean Cocteau, the embroidery was undertaken by Lesage and the garment was the vision of Schiaparelli herself #VandA #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

i am willing to compromise by just insisting on prison terms for ICE employees. that is the moderate position.
if there's a reason to keep up the "tribunals for all involved" discourse one such reason it is to put in stark relief how far away some of the Dem politicking is from the mood on the ground
eric swalwell said on msnow that a major goal of a dem majority after the midterms would be for ice masks to come off and badges to come out, this is insufficient

Religion is what you do with it.
NEW: Churches in Charlotte are hosting trainings on how to response to ICE agents — with *hundreds* filling pews.

At one training, a child led those gathered in "This Little Light of Mine" — but changed the words to “All around Border Patrol, I’m gonna let it shine" religionnews.com/2025/11/20/a...
As ICE descends on Charlotte, faith leaders draw on other cities' actions to aid immigrants
(RNS) — As many as 500 people, a mix of clergy and other volunteers, have appeared at the training sessions on how to counter ICE.

Lest there be any insinuation that Dems spared their own. It would be tough for Kathy Ruemmler—Obama’s WH Counsel from 2011 to mid-2014—to come off looking worse in these docs the committee Dems released. oversightdemocrats.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

The thing about Mamdani is that he’s a talented politician but not otherworldly or one in a billion, he’s just a competent guy with popular ideas who ran against an entitled piece of shit and to me it’s a lot more optimistic to imagine 1000 campaigns like his than to view him as a unique phenomenon

This is the last day before major US elections, so as of tomorrow it's about one year to the 2026 midterms, which means we're about to get plunged face-first into aggressive voter suppression strategies.

Remember: it's cheaper and easier to hack the electorate than the election

Our world is at its hottest in around

CO2 levels their highest in MILLIONS of years.

We’re looking at tipping points, 4C & a billion deaths this century.

It’s not unreasonable to demand politicians work flat out tackling this, instead of serving the corporations profiting from it.

The rabbis acting like Mamdani is a generational threat to American Jews seem to believe that if he loses, growing anti-Zionism in the US can be stopped. If anything, I think the opposite is more likely - the anti-Israel candidates who come after him will be much less sensitive to American Jews.
