Today, November 25th 2024 is the day we officially learned that justice in America, in fact, does NOT matter. #sad

So let me get this straight.

If you apply for a job at a grocery store, you have to undergo a background check.

But, if you apply to be Director of National Intelligence, you don't?

Got it.

About to drop $525 to get this guy to make a video denouncing sexual assault and send it to Pete Hegseth.

Wish me luck.

Paws up! Police find shoe thief at a kindergarten is actually a weasel. Police in southwest Japan installed cameras after nearly two dozen children’s shoes went missing from Gosho Kodomo-en kindergarten in Fukuoka. The culprit? A weasel.

It would be nice if Republicans cared about women being sexually assaulted as much as they pretend to care about women’s bathrooms

It’s really something to watch the Party whose supporters poop on the floor in the Capitol and wipe their feces on the wall tell us which bathrooms to use.

We're entering year 10 of the Library of Congress project. It's been a gigantic, wonky, surprisingly successful experiment of academic/federal research collaboration.

Opinion | Enough To suggest we should yield even a little to Trump’s odious politics is unacceptable. Even if we did, it would never be enough.

For the @nytimes.com I wrote about how Enough is Enough with the incumbent president and his cabinet of folly and let’s stop coddling Trump voters and be real clear-eyed about what lies ahead. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/17/o...

The baller move for the Democrats here is to openly publish the Gaetz report on Xitter, and make Musk decide whether or not to censor it. It will quickly get out anyway. But it would put him in a deeply uncomfortable spot with Trump.

No, we can't agree to disagree. This isn't sports. This isn't us rooting for 2 different teams and the winner of the game has no impact on your life, my life or our kids' lives. You support someone who promises to hurt me and people I love. As Charlie Chaplin said, "I don't shake hands with Nazis."
