Behn: My biggest pet peeve in politics is when people who don’t live in the South say, “You get what you voted for.” I didn’t vote for the highest maternal mortality rate in the country. I didn’t vote for the highest inflationary cost of groceries in the country.

My ship, the USS Point Defiance (LSD-31), was anchored in Hong Kong Harbor on November 22nd (23rd in Hong Kong, though) and I was the petty officer of the quarter deck watch. It was a bitterly cold day. At 0700 hours, the 1st liberty boat pulled away from the ship.

KARL: The president claims that Thanksgiving costs are down 25%. Does he know that's not true?

HASSETT: Well if you look at Walmart--

KARL: Wait a minute. I've gotta stop you. The Walmart package this year contains much less than the one last year. That's why the price is less.

THAT'S LITERALLY HOW THE SUBSIDIES & ACA EXCHANGES WORK ALREADY.

CONSUMERS ARE INFORMED BY COMPARING POLICIES ON THE ACA EXCHANGES, THEN THEY PURCHASE ONE AND THE GOVERNMENT PAYS SOME OR ALL OF THE COST OF THAT POLICY.

I'M TEARING THE LITTLE HAIR I HAVE ON MY HEAD OUT.
Cassidy: "The president is proposing that we take the $26b that would be going to insurance companies if we just do an extension and give it directly to the American people in which 100% of the money is used for them to purchase healthcare on their own terms. That makes them an informed consumer."

Now in the courtroom of District Judge Sara Ellis in Chicago for the start of a scheduled status hearing in the class action accusing federal immigration agents of abusing press, clergy and the public in the Chicago area.

Ellis entered an injunction order limiting feds' use of force last week.
Ellis sets a status hearing for 3 pm next Thursday, Nov. 13.

More issues to be covered then, including how to handle possible court order violations plaintiffs have already raised.

Devastating to hear about Rachel Cooke, a generational talent whose writing was often an inspiration, especially her political interviews. So much more she could have written.

Note: The pastor being thrown to the ground and arrested here while protesting outside an ICE facility here — who police single out — appears to be Rev. Michael Woolf, a Baptist pastor (he’s ordained by both American Baptist Churches USA and Alliance of Baptists).
at one point, i watched a cook county sheriff’s officer (who appears to be in charge) point out a priest in the crowd.

he and a couple officers then went into the crowd , dragged him into the street, and arrested him.

situation is still tense as crowd jostles with police to get into the street.

As a Wall Street CEO, Frank Bisignano cashed out to the tune of $500 MILLION — and his former company faces questions about its financial reporting.

Now, he's Donald Trump's head of Social Security.

Did Bisignano mislead investors and Americans?
I'm pressing for answers.
