Backstage at The Orpheum with the Junior Senator and the Last Jedi.

VoteVets' MG Paul Eaton (Ret) blasts GOP Senators for rejecting Senator Tim Kaine's War Powers Resolution. He says Trump is waging a "criminal and unconstitutional" war and betraying the principle that Americans shouldn't die without having a say in the matter, through their elected representatives.

On September 23, Adelita Grijalva won a special election to represent Arizona in the House of Representatives in a landslide, collecting 69% of the vote.

Forty-three days later, House Speaker Mike Johnson has not sworn in Grijalva.

Might start using this picture of our foster dog Goose to respond to information I find surprising, bewildering, or intimidating.

(Goose, who we don’t think has lived in a house before, is perpetually surprised, bewildered, and intimidated.)

This is a real photo today.

This is the Current Occupant of the White House showing everyone how awful he is.

Bruce Lee shifted the U.S. zeitgeist, and author Jeff Chang maps out "how Kung Fu became American" in his newest book.

Watching RFK jr run away from someone collapsing feels like a harbinger of things to come

Rep. Yassamin Ansari has set up a table and this sign outside Speaker Johnson’s office.

I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.

Warning to the feds: if Trump sends soldiers to NYC, we have very varied sandwich options at our disposal. You will encounter a fusillade of bahm mi, BEC, gyro, chop cheese, BLT, doubles, lox bagel, croque-madame, torta and döner.
Hell, half a Katz’s pastrami on rye could wipe out a couple of guys.

Thank you...

Election Night wasn’t just a Blue Wave — it was a Blue Tsunami. And the color that made it all possible was Black.

Study compares heart risks of COVID-19 infection and vaccination, and the results may surprise you The risk of children developing rare but serious heart complications is higher after a COVID-19 infection than after vaccination, according to a new study.

Buried in the article:
“Over a period of six months, researchers estimate that COVID-19 infections led to 2.24 extra cases of myocarditis or pericarditis per 100,000 children, while vaccinations led to 0.85 extra cases per 100,000.”

The scare tactic of the headline is what’s wrong with media today

I had a run in with ICE snatching a man out of his car while walking my children to school this morning in NW DC

I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents.

I am in contact with @dcmigrantmutualaid.org with the full video.

Details matter.

By this time next week, the estimated deaths due to the illegal destruction of USAID and the shuttering of its aid efforts will breach 400,000.

Swear her in, swear her in!!!

Now do that in the Senate...

HAPPENING NOW: Judge McConnell is sharply rebuking the Trump administration for what he said was defying his order to make full SNAP payments by Nov. 5. He has ordered USDA to make the *full* payment to states by tomorrow.

Judge scolds Comey prosecutors for ‘indict first and investigate second’ approach — The Washington Post U.S. Magistrate Judge William E. Fitzpatrick described the Justice Department’s approach to James B. Comey’s prosecution as “highly unusual.”

So the DOJ decided to charge first, think later? 👀.

A federal judge just ripped into prosecutors over their “indict first, investigate second” approach to the Comey case calling it “highly unusual.” That’s not justice, that’s politics. #Comey #DOJ
