I'm tired of responding to bad-faith MAGA outrage, which always distracts corporate media, centrists, & those who feel they must indulge their temper tantrums.

They're blaming all of us now for the National Guard shooting.

Just say:

"Fuck Off, Release the Epstein Files, and Happy Thanksgiving."

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

One woman said her father called in June to say he was going to be paroled after serving 20 years for car theft.

Then in September, she got another call: He was instead being transferred to await deportation.

It was the last time she heard from him.

Louisiana Made It Nearly Impossible to Get Parole. Now It’s Releasing Prisoners to Deport Them.
Gov. Jeff Landry eliminated parole for prisoners arrested after Aug. 1, 2024, and tightened eligibility rules for those already in prison. Then he set all of that aside for one group: undocumented imm...

Nuzzi is like Trump in this sense: the worst thing about America is not that someone that awful exists, the worst thing is that much of the press promotes and normalizes it for clicks.

Unemployment has been rising “a tenth of a point here, a tenth of a point there.” That feels small month to month, but as it has added up month over month, we've silently shifted from a very tight market toward a noticeably weaker one. Slow drips still fill the bucket.

A sad irony in Washington, D.C., where West Virginia National Guardsmen were shot today. Six days ago, a court ruled their deployment was illegal, but stayed the order pending appeal. My heart goes out to these public servants and their families. oag.dc.gov/sites/defaul...

Don’t forget that *Trump’s own lawyer’s argument* to the Supreme Court in the immunity case was that the check on the President using his immunity to order criminal acts was that those under him would not follow illegal orders. Now it’s a crime for lawmakers to remind servicemembers of that?

Despite what your annoying uncle might say, turkey is not going to make you fall asleep. It would take about 20 servings of Thanksgiving turkey to give you enough tryptophan to equal a single dose of a sleep aid supplement.

This is a horrible and unfathomable tragedy. Kathy and I join Wisconsinites and folks across our nation in praying for the Guard members, as well as their colleagues and families. Our hearts break for them. We must continue to keep and hold them close today and in the days ahead.
