Extreme pro slavery southerners were not too fond of the Declaration it was a lie as Alexander Stephens put in his cornerstone speech. The longer argument is here: www.amazon.com/Counterrevol...

The incompetence of the Iran War rollout is just stunning.
Rubio says "Israel dragged us into this war! We had no choice!"
Trump says "I dragged Israel into this war! Regime change! Iranian people, rise up!"
Just bonkers.
Four people, with their hands up, standing behind 2 people sitting. The four people standing are US citizens who were detained, the two people are families whose family members were killed by migrants.
Jayapal is now introducing 4 US citizens who were detained for at least 6 hours merely for observing ICE.
Kristi Noem sent a much-delayed list of USCit detained by ICE yesterday. None of these four were on the list.
RFK Jr & McMahon wrote a vile letter to my medical school telling us we must stop generating a diverse medical workforce or they'd destroy us
🚨 He's also now forcing US medical schools to adopt HIS KOOKY CURRICULUM that "draws heavily on the work of Dr. Casey Means"

Actually it’s not that good in coding either apparently the amount of time checking it’s mistakes makes it pretty bad at coding. Only good for simple repetitive tasks! www.nytimes.com/2025/11/12/o...

It was just a misspoke you guys
(From @atrupar.com )
Randall on Mississippi: "One of the perpetrators of that fraud? Former NFL quarterback Brett Favre, who received $1.1m from the govt for speeches he never made. Congressional Republicans' response was to invite Favre to testify about how we should strengthen oversight of federal welfare programs."

But if the examiners have some point you fundamentally disagree with, stand your ground. Offer to better clarify it, but don't concede when you're right.

"People are tired of Bari Weiss’s conservative shtick that masquerades as free speech while bulldozing those she doesn’t agree with," writes @emotrophywife.bsky.social.

Seen in the bad place: Marco Rubio:
“That entire regime (Iran) led by radical clerics who don’t make geopolitical decisions. They make decisions on the basis of theology; their view of theology, which is an apocalyptic one.”
At CBS News, where staffers are apparently barred from reading history books, the hostilities between Iran and the US don’t begin until 1979.

It’s interesting that Talarico’s religious appeals are framed primarily as a reach across the aisle here.
In his particular case, I think that’s *part* of the effort come the general. But his slogan was “let’s flip some tables” — a theological argument aimed at the Democratic base, not Republicans.
“But the risk is real — whether by targeting desalination plants deliberately, or by accident due to a stray missile or drone. Oil is essential; but water is irreplaceable.”
Water, not oil, is Iran’s most precious commodity.

so Trump/Netanyahu may well be giving Tehran regime just the boost and cause it needed to renew and retrench with a popular cause and purpose — as @economist.com reports in its World in Brief newslettter (screenshot) & here on why the late Khameini chose martyrdom:

Talk about a U-turn:
(Bloomberg) - The Pentagon’s top strategy official acknowledged that the US operations against Iran are outside the scope of the Trump administration’s plans to have allies and partners pick up more burden-sharing of collective security.

I see outlets already getting stuff wrong, so: if you’re media trying to write about Bryan Betancur, I have way more information about his background than anyone else who can go on the record. DMs are open.

If you're voting in Texas today, I urge you to vote for @jamestalarico.bsky.social in the Senate primary. He would make an incredible Senator.
Jasmine Crockett is a great spokesperson, but she's in the pocket of the crypto industry. We don't need more Senators who are bought by crypto bros.
