#1 Gross Bari, but I don't watch CBS for the most part anyway.
#2 As we have a crisis with men behaving badly, we have women enabling.
We had this in the 80s too...and 90s, but it seemed to get better for a while.
Am I nuts? Did I imagine it getting better?

What do you think about children being detained by Trump in facilities where they have to fight for clean drinking water?

Where the water is cloudy, smells & upsets stomachs & the soap for showers causes rashes & they have to sleep on concrete floors?

More broadly, officials across ICE say Noem and Lewandowski have directed them to use a $170
billion infusion of cash from Congress to launch splashy ideas that have proven ineffective or impractical.
Among the examples some ICE officials have cited: A few weeks ago, the pair ordered ICE officials to buy 10 737 jets from Spirit Airlines that they said would be used to boost deportation flightsβ€” and for their own travel, according to people familiar with the matter.
Some officials warned the pair that the effort would be prohibitively expensive compared with hiring more flight contractors, the people said.

Once the officials looked into the proposal, they learned that Spirit, which filed for bankruptcy for a second time in August, didn't own the planes. The planes also don't have engines, which would need to be purchased separately.
The project has since been put on pause, though DHS recently purchased two Gulfstream jets for $200 million, according to Democrats on the House Appropriations Committee, who were notified by the department.
A spokesperson for Spirit didn't respond to a request for comment.

A post from No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen (@NoLieWithBTC) with a picture of Representative-Elect Adelita Grijalva. The text says,"This is Adelita Grijalva. She was elected 43 days ago. Republicans still refuse to swear her in because she is the final vote needed to release the Epstein Files."

Mike Johnson has a constitutional duty to swear in Adelita Grijalva. Americans are demanding Congress release the Epstein files.

This is your daily reminder that:

1. Republicans shut down the government;

2. to make sure that 15 million Americans lose health care and 20 million Americans’ health care premiums double;

3. all so that billionaires get tax cuts.

It’s that simple.
