On Nov. 7, we’re launching Stories From The States, a new weekly podcast designed to help you make sense of the dizzying swirl of news happening in our country.

🦅👀 Massive UAVs attack on Moscow region!

Turn of the century type sh. Time is a flat circle.

This is a bailout to the banks the farmers get their notes from. This isn’t seed money for next year it covers payment for this year. Ranchers are selling bulls and heifers. American Ag is getting cooked.

By 2035, $25 will be the $7.25 of today. Any other bright ideas from the over educated?

Jefferson is SPINNING in his grave

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days. The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens.

Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.

They’ve had their necks kneeled on.

🇺🇦 Zelensky: We are not losing this war and Putin is not winning. His army is in a weak position now. They could occupy 1% of our land, but they spent 1.3 million people.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

The system is broken.

I know I could get into trouble for posting the Antifa battle flag, but I'm gonna do it anyway.

The Trump administration is positioning the upcoming No Kings protests as an excuse for crushing dissent

If no violence develops, the Trump administration will move on and wait for their next chance. But if a conflict involving No Kings protesters breaks out anywhere in the country, then all bets are off.

Mad King Trump Seizes Your Money The president is doing almost exactly what Charles I did to touch off the English Civil War.

The way that Trump is moving money around during this shutdown without the approval of Congress is yet another way Trump is positioning himself as a king. @ryanlcooper.com and @ddayen.bsky.social argue Trump has all the worst qualities of the old English monarchs.

NEW: The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did.

We found more than 170 such incidents since the start of the second Trump administration. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes nearly 20 children, two of whom have cancer.

from wikipedia, a bronze medal with an image of Columbia crowned with stars and an eagle headdress over the word Freedom, with a red ribbon and a bronze palm.

The precursor of the Presidential Medal of Freedom was the Congressional Medal of Freedom, which was established in 1945 to honor civilians who aided the fight against fascism in WWII.
