I'm feeling all weird and icky inside today... I found myself nodding along with Tillis and John Kennedy.
True, but the poor is a large part of his base. What am I thinking… these nitwits don’t think in terms of consequences, and sure as hell don’t care about the working class.
For the life if me, I cannot understand the logic of some of this administration’s actions and policies. It’s like they want Americans to die. Real question: How can this possibly benefit their agenda?
DOJ use of force policy.
He broke the law and murdered a US citizen. Full stop.
Hey, CBP isn't allowed to do any of the stuff it's doing in Minneapolis even within the confines of its extremely ridiculous "100 miles from any border" jurisdiction. It's 300 miles from Canada and 160 miles to Lake Superior. They're breaking the law standing around, let alone beating up protesters.
Please take 15 minutes to watch, then share this. Unforgivable.
It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Wow, you really nailed her 1000 yard stare. She’s every bit as creepy as Miller, and I feel like those eyes can see into my soul.
If you missed the 2025 @isbscience.org Virtual Microbiome Symposium (theme: how microbial metabolites influence the brain, the immune system, & metabolism), the videos of the talks and the panel discussion are now available here:

Thanks to all who helped make it happen!
Heard this song before, but somehow the record scratch sends us right back to the beginning.
I haven’t laugh/snorted to a comment in weeks.
Comparisons to our country resembling 30s Germany are appropriate, but I’m seeing an awful similarity to 1780s France. I don’t recall that ending well for aristocracy, and especially for the king.
I’d watch Idris eating cereal while reading the Sunday paper, but he was a weak link in an otherwise good (and terrifying) movie.
Speaker Mike Johnson's halloween costume:
Weenie waiting for the Rapture

A friend’s new substack is great at taking a longer, more thoughtful view of issues; something we’ve lost in this age of digital immediacy and verbal bomb throwing.

“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings
This rules - @raskin.house.gov straight up called out Roberts to his face.

Democrats are right to remind people that when Trump falls there will be accountability.
I also think we should start issuing criminal referrals to DOJ. While they won't be acted on by our corrupt Attorney General it puts Congress on record against lawbreakers.

An email headline from one of the news sources I subscribe to:
"Vance's crackdown on left-wing groups"
No- should be:
"The unconstitutional actions of the VP of the United States"
News orgs, do better.
Listening to this exchange again is infuriating. Trump’s bombastic claims that he will fix everything, while Kamala drops truth bombs about Putin’s intentions for Europe, starting with Poland.

Trump announces new Dept of Education guidelines for protecting prayer in public schools.
A reminder:
Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day.
Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day.
It's not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.
"Trump says he’ll seek ‘long-term’ control of DC police and signals he’ll target other cities next"

I just hate-watched this press conference, and my god you’re accurate in your depiction. Especially Hegseth. How I wish you had less material to work with…
What a bunch of tools.
Hello. The president's continued insistence that the BLS numbers are rigged, political, or otherwise manipulated is a lie. Please stop saying 'baseless claim.' Thank you.
Every document coming from RFK Jr. and his minions should be written in comic sans.
These are not serious people.
There's always a tweet.
Oh really? 🍿
