I could be wrong about it. I’m wrong about a lot of stuff. But it seems to me like the folks who wanted less government are getting glimpses of what that’s like.

A 34 year-old mother of 4 from Guatemala was working as a cleaner in Indiana this week when she arrived at the wrong door of a home. The occupants, fearing a burglary, shot thru the door and killed her. If you guessed the name of the town as ‘Whitestown’ you would be correct.

FYI, I get the procedural strategy behind KBJ’s decisions, and that it was a compromise assuming the MAGA justices would have pushed thru a stay anyway & she’s hoping to speed up the timeline of a decision. My point is about SCOTUS in general and the destructive, Trump enabling force it has become.
We should start calling it the SSupreme Court-heartless bastards.

This is the same guy who went to a movie when his brother Fred Jr., was dying in a hospital so his lack of concern comes as no surprise.
If you were looking at a newspaper (or its website) this morning and didn't see this iconic photo, it was an intentional choice to pander.

It certainly defies all logic.
Tesla’s profit fell 37% in the third quarter. It's been in the process of laying off 14,000 workers. It had more cars impacted by recalls than any other brand in 2024.
Yet Elon Musk just got a pay package worth $1 trillion.
American capitalism is off the rails.

"it's a symptom of a deep and abiding dysfunction that Republicans, despite holding the presidency, the Senate and the House, can't fund the government and can't even get themselves to get together in a room to strike a deal."

Perfection. A dude possibly dying next to him and Trump standing there very clearly thinking only about himself.

From Lawrence O'Donnell: SCOTUS heard oral arguments on the Tariffs. The Regime lawyer admitted that Tariffs are taxes that WE THE PEOPLE pay and not the counties and that Congress has the authority to regulate Tariffs not the President. There is a good chance for them to rule against the Tariffs.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Great job, Illinois!
One of the big ones.
The Illinois legislature had passed the “Illinois Bivens Act,” allowing people to sue ICE agents in state court. Just waiting for Pritzker’s signature.

Louisiana — the red state that Mike Johnson nominally represents — has the second highest percentage of residents enrolled in SNAP in the nation.
They’re pushing this fantasy about these being “Democrat programs” used only in blue states but that’s a PR fantasy divorced from reality.

Mike Johnson: "These blue states have abused the SNAP program just like they've abused Medicaid and so many other government programs."

If it was anyone else, they would never have gotten out of the 2016 primaries but the media obsession with him and what he did for their ratings, did this to us.

Let me put this as simply as possible: If the 60 Minutes editorial team cuts out most of their interview with Trump to make him look his best, and he still comes across as completely demented, then it is extremely likely that Trump actually is completely demented.
