Incredibly frustrating conclusion on this article. Academia is going to make the same mistake it did with Wikipedia. This prof couldn't come up with a way to teach his students to use ai because he refuses to use it himself

Photographers / videographers: has anyone talked about the "Maga lighting" trend? Conferences, fern talks, speeches, official portraits -- they all look like the were lit by an open refrigerator door.
the back of Trump's hand looked gnarly again today

Okay yeah, they are't coming back until January at least
And there it is…..

Announcement is made that the U.S. House will be out of session AGAIN next week

Two full months since their most recent vote

What's unique about this particular lie is: not even cognitive dissonance can combat it. Everyone knows it's not true! Everyone buys groceries. Everyone buys stuff from Amazon. We all have to buy stuff just to live, and it's all way more expensive than it was at the beginning of the year
Trump: "If you look at affordability, which they campaigned on, they lied. Because they talked about 'Oh, prices are up' -- no, prices are down under the Trump administration and they're down substantially."

Trump and Musk share a commonality of somehow being both quite clever and extremely dumb which I (and others) have found confusing.

I have a model that has been working.

I think they’re both clever guys with extremely narrow worldviews.

You haven't had representation since mid september!

It's official: Speaker Johnson just cancelled all votes in the House next week.

The next scheduled voting day is 10/27; the last time the House was in session was 9/19.

Trump moving around your tax money on his whim as congress sits on its hands. The rest of the country now knows what its like for DC to not have voting representation in congress. Time to bring back its motto nation-wide: no taxation without representation.

FYI: with the previous No Kings in DEC a few months ago, they barely acknowledged it existed. Full blast counter-programming this time. What changed? 🤔
Rep. Pat Harrigan: "This No Kings rally -- that's the blue hair, anthropomorphic experiment that's gonna happen up here in Washington DC."

Stuff like this makes me think more and more this is a "yes"

Q: Why are you keeping the House out if you have a lot of other work to do? Are you saying you can't work on appropriations while the govt is shut down?

JOHNSON: Republicans have been very busy in their districts helping constituents navigate this crisis that's been created by Schumer and the Dems
October 13, 2025 at 6:02 PM
Hrmmm.. 🤔 This got me thinking. We aren't waiting for the Dems to make a deal. We're waiting for a house member to agree to withdraw their name from the Discharge Petition.
So no Military pay until at least the 20th. While the military will continue to show up, I predict all those newly minted ICE agents are going to suddenly catch a flu next week.
What a work schedule. The Republican speaker of the House grinds hard

It's important to note that Democrats attempted to gain recognition in the House today to pass a bill to pay the Military. The Speaker did not recognize them

Dear, DNC: be the Party the GOP thinks you are.
Thune: "If the Democrats had won the majority, they probably would've tried to nuke the filibuster. And then you'd have four new senators from Puerto Rico and DC, you'd have a packed Supreme Court, you'd have abortion on demand ... "
October 10, 2025 at 5:46 PM
I'm beginning to think the House may never go back in session
Q: In past shutdowns though, there have been ways to guarantee that members of the military get paid. There are over 100 Republicans who have signed on to a standalone bill to pay these military members. So at what poin--

MIKE JOHNSON: We have already had those votes. We've done that.
