Stupidity or political theater? 🎭
Either way, TX continues to crash and burn under this governor.

I’m not forgetting that every sitting democratic senator voted to confirm Marco Rubio. He’s just as responsible for all the USAID deaths as Elon.

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

Line chart showing cumulative homicides by calendar year for 2001 through 2025 in Chicago. The line for 2025 is highlighted, showing that we're on trend to have relatively few homicides this year.

As of Halloween, annual homicides in Chicago are the lowest since 2014 and the second lowest since at least 2001.

No amount of murder is acceptable, but a 50% drop from the pandemic spike is pretty remarkable. And there's still a chance that we'll hit a 25-year low by the end of December.

After voting to give billionaires tax breaks and making health care more expensive, Derrick Van Orden has refused to hold a town hall to talk to the voters he works for in a face-to-face conversation. So, I'm heading to Wisconsin to help give the people he's supposed to represent a voice.

What the fuck are we doing.

What to know about the nationwide FAA-mandated flight reductions The FAA has ordered a 4% reduction in operations at 40 major airports starting Friday, which will ramp up to 10% by Nov. 14.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy wants air traffic controllers who are not being paid to "show up because it's their job." How about Congressional Republicans show up and do their job by ensuring all federal workers are paid, travelers are safe, and our healthcare is protected? seiu.co/482c2SH

MattY writing in defense of global warming on the basis that people prefer to live in Phoenix rather than Minneapolis

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

Farewell to the International Space Station - NASA confirms that it will fall into the sea and that they still don't know who will be its replacement It has been orbiting the Earth for three decades, but the International Space Station (ISS) is getting ready to say goodbye to outer space.

This sucks. Now space stations will be privatized and profit driven. What could go wrong?

Newsom: They want to bring us back to a pre-1960s, maybe 1860s world. And you’re seeing it not just on voting rights—you’re seeing it on civil rights, on women’s rights, on LGBTQ rights. They’re censoring historic facts. They’re on a banning binge—Bud Light and Big Bird

Meanwhile, CEOs make 280 times the typical worker today.

The system is rigged.

Senate Dems, do not cave. Ensuring healthcare premiums don’t surge is an 80-20 issue. They want to gut the ACA because their disdain for Obama far outweighs their concern for anyone’s health.
