Federal Suit Seeking Names of Some Jewish Employees at Penn Sparks Backlash

Trump Administration bizarrely demands the University of Pennsylvania hand over "names, phone numbers and physical addresses" for anyone who "belongs to Jewish clubs or groups on campus, and anyone who works in the university’s Jewish studies program"...

Saturday morning someone sent me a screenshot of Google AI discussing the Cal-Stanford Big Game. It closed by saying that Cal had won it.

The game had not been played yet.

And when it was, Cal lost :-(

"Demand," my ass. No one wants their garbage.

James Comey Indictment Dismissed After Multiple Scandals The attorney handling the case was not lawfully appointed, the judge ruled.

Putin Handed Over $8 Billion In Contracts To His Russian Oligarch Friends Some Russian oligarchs are doing just fine despite sanctions.

And continued to award contracts on his own whims. Exactly what Trump is doing with Bezos and Musk. www.businessinsider.com/putin-gives-...

This is also how Russia got its oligarchs. Putin gave his friends control over state industries, after the fall of the Soviet Union.

This doesn't get mentioned nearly enough.

The Orbanization of the American press "The really unnerving thing is Trump using state power to influence who a company gets sold to," Matt Gertz tells us.

New in PN: @mattgertz.bsky.social on the Orbanization of the press

"Everyone just accepts that of course the FCC will only allow a merger if it goes to a person that Trump wants to own it. That’s a very precipitous decline in our broad public assumptions of how govt power is supposed to be wielded"

niner_times U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) will begin deportation raids in Charlotte as soon as Saturday, Nov. 15, says Mecklenburg County Sheriff Garry L. McFadden. According to details obtained by CBS, the operation is called "Charlotte Web" and may only last a week. McFadden said that CMPD will not be "involved with any measures regarding enforcement with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and CBP." It's unclear who exactly CBP will be targeting in these raids. "If we had absolute confidence that ICE was going to come here and they were going to go and find violent, dangerous drug traffickers and criminals and be targeted in their work, the city would welcome them with open arms," N.C. Governor Josh Stein said to the media on Wednesday. "We haven't heard from them, so we don't know what their plans are, but we have seen instances where ICE has gone after American citizens and detained them for up to days at a time."

They are giving the raids on Charlotte the name of a beloved children’s novel about disparate members of a community working together to save someone vulnerable 🤬

One sign of a bubble is when the major players do gimmicks to hide the cost of the bubble.

If the thing was clearly a good value, they'd just say "look at us investing in this valuable thing," rather than this obvious shell game to avoid booking the cost of building a data center.

DOGE investigations and prosecutions are already overdue

He just keeps claiming Biden's accomplishments.

This is from Oct 2:

Caroline Kennedy’s adult daughter Tatiana Schlossberg has terminal cancer. Here she bashes her cousin RFK Jr for slashing funds for cancer research and drug trials that could save her life!

A Battle with My Blood When I was diagnosed with leukemia, my first thought was that this couldn’t be happening to me, to my family.

While RFK, Jr. cut billions in research funding.

Tatiana Schlossberg, his cousin has been fighting a very resistant form of leukemia with bone marrow transplant and, recently, more innovative therapies.

She worries for others.

Her brave and beautiful essay here.

“I watched as Bobby cut nearly a half billion dollars for research into mRNA vaccines, technology that could be used against certain cancers.” Heartbreaking piece by Tatiana Schlossberg, President Kennedy’s granddaughter and RFK Jr.’s cousin.

Robber barons!!!!!!

It's worth remembering that the excesses of the robber barons led directly to the Great Depression. "…Doomed to repeat it," indeed.

FOX: During the Biden administration, there was a push for greater passenger rights. They wanted to have airlines compensate people if there was a delay or cancelation. But that is something the Trump admin has said they don't want to do

DUFFY: We took a more common sense approach to it

Good! Yes, they will probably be prosecuted for the many laws that they obviously broke harming millions of Americans. That is if we get people into power who enforce laws

Gaza hospitals running out of supplies as airstrikes continue, medics say ‘Severe lack’ in territory where Israeli strikes have killed more than 50 people and injured over 100 in recent days

Anyone remember that cease fire?

"Gaza hospitals running out of supplies as airstrikes continue"

Even better than a boycott

Genius

Meanwhile on Hellsite, who knew all the Elon bots were Nigerian? 🤡

Trump’s special envoy Witkoff put his hand over his heart when Putin walked in the room. Like he’s reunited with a loved one. That really tells you all you need to know.

Your mileage may vary, but in my experience Elon’s twitter has a lot of phony manufactured rage bait on it (based on posts I’ve seen shared elsewhere-I deleted my account on the hate-site years ago)

He went to Jared*

*who doesn’t currently hold any position in the govt??

Ian Miles Cheong: "Ian Miles Cheong lives in Dubai!!! He's NOT AMERICAN!" Wow what tipped you off? I've only said this about a billion times.
