It’s indescribably amazing that these union members hung together for so long. This is was solidarity looks like! ✊✊

Furious House Republican Warns More ‘Explosive’ Resignations Are Coming After Marjorie Taylor Greene “Morale has never been lower,” the senior lawmaker said.

Am I the only one holding on to this little bit of hope like grim death?

"More explosive early resignations are coming. It’s a tinder box. Morale has never been lower. Mike Johnson will be stripped of his gavel, and they will lose the majority before this term is out.”

A white man wearing a black jersey with the number nine and gold pants holds a football and screams at the camera.

I have to say, photoshopping a guy with 16 allegations of sexual misconduct into the jersey of a beloved and legendary QB is certainly a choice.

HA! She probably spent it all on giant gold earrings, circa 1987's "The Young and The Restless."

In sum, the text, structure, and history of section 546 point to one conclusion: the Attorney General’s authority to appoint an interim U.S. Attorney lasts for a total of 120 days from the date she first invokes section 546 after the departure of a Senate-confirmed U.S. Attorney. If the position remains vacant at the end of the 120-day period, the exclusive authority to make further interim appointments under the statute shifts to the district court, where it remains until the President’s nominee is confirmed by the Senate. Ms. Halligan was not appointed in a manner consistent with this framework. The 120-day clock began running with Mr. Siebert’s appointment on January 21, 2025. When that clock expired on May 21, 2025, so too did the Attorney General’s appointment authority. Consequently, I conclude that the Attorney General’s attempt to install Ms. Halligan as Interim U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia was invalid and that Ms. Halligan has been unlawfully serving in that role since September 22, 2025.

For those put off by all the discussion of congressional intent and procedural history in Judge McGowan Currie's dismissal of the indictments against James and Comey, it all comes down to these two grafs.

All the independent journalists out there need to save this opinion. It gives you a road map on how to handle denied or ignored FOIA requests if you don’t have access to a legal department to do it for you.

I don’t know how we’re supposed to expect members if the military to know the difference between a lawful and an unlawful order when military bases have spent 20 years pumping them full of FOX News propaganda.

I generally put them 1 and 2, but no argument here.

Henry Cuellar (TX-28) Jimmy Panetta (CA-19) Don Davis (NC-01) Chris Pappas (NH-01) Laura Gillen (NY-04) Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (WA-03) Jared Golden (ME-02) Josh Riley (NY-19) Maggie Goodlander (NH-02) Pat Ryan (NY-18) Josh Gottheimer (NJ-05) Kim Schrier (WA-08) Adam Gray (CA-13) Eric Sorensen (IL-17) Marcy Kaptur (OH-09) Tom Suozzi (NY-03) Susie Lee (NV-03) Gene Vindman (VA-07) David Min (CA-47) George Whitesides (CA-27)

These 20 House Democrats just joined Republicans in voting to fully repeal DC's police reform laws.

Wiping off the books critical laws on use of force, transparency, and preventing violent cops from getting rehired.

They think that they should have more say over DC police than the people of DC.

I put Rogue One ahead of ROTJ and maybe ahead of ANH, but pretty solid list for his age group (I acknowledge that the youngins view the prequels differently than Gen X does).

Whoever at Vanity Fair thinks we want this needs to be replaced.

ICE Sent 600 Immigrant Kids to Detention in Federal Shelters This Year. It’s a New Record. Under a zero tolerance policy, the first Trump administration separated immigrant children from their families at the U.S.-Mexico border. New data suggests separations are happening all over the count...

ICE has sent more immigrant kids into the federal shelter system this year than in the previous 4 years combined.

Under Trump, the average stay in custody is ~6 months, up from a month under Biden.

Eye-opening story from @micarosenberg.bsky.social, @marioarizabaez.bsky.social + ProPublica team:

I’ve been going with Ashley Abbott from Y&R or the cast of Falcon Crest.

So I spent last night talking myself into taking some time off this week to get rid of this stupid cold and resting. Put my phone on silent and finally went to sleep.

Five hours later: Comey/James indictments dismissed.

Well said. That people are so willing to entrust their children to him is devastating.

Dressed for combat to go sweep up flowers. These people are so ridiculous.

In JGG (the original Alien Tort Claims Act case), Judge Boasberg orders submissions on "how the Court's inquiry regarding a potential contempt referral should proceed, including names of possible witnesses and dates for hearings," by tomorrow close of business.

The thing about Art Briles...I believe it is possible to grow & change for the better. A long period out of coaching followed by a return could be a redemption story. But in order for that to happen, one has to take responsibility, repent, & make amends. Briles hasn't done so.

Losing My Perspicacity, November 24, 2025 The Department of Homeland Security has BIG a credibility problem

Let’s hope the federal judiciary is starting to realize that DHS has a BIG credibility problem.

Whatever law says that every commercial on Sundays has to feature John Cena or some member of the Kelce Family, I object.

I agree. It's obscene.

Sorry all! I deleted and reposted because I forgot the alt text and I somehow screwed up the link in the process.

Cool shot.

Wow. Thanks for flagging.
