How Government Shutdowns Leave Polluting Legacies Previous pauses in EPA enforcement indicate that a lack of federal oversight can embolden polluters.

The near-complete halt of inspections and case processing activities is likely to have significant implications for the EPA’s enforcement work.

Turnout was down 75% in Middle TN U.S. House special election, particularly in GOP strongholds • Tennessee Lookout Turnout in the special election primary for Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District race was down compared to the 2024 General Election.

If you are a Democrat in the Tennessee 7th, you have a chance to do something incredible starting tomorrow as to the special election on December 2nd

The Republican Party appears to be collapsing there, perhaps in part because it is trying to starve everyone

Brazil cuts reliance on Russian diesel amid new US oil sanctions The development comes as Brasília tries to mend relations with Washington

“Brazil has paid Russia $13.4 bn for diesel since 2023, trade data shows. Brasilia was the largest importer of Russian diesel, with Moscow accounting for 60% of Brasilia’s diesel imports…

Yep. Keep capitulating to this monster. Don't worry, he'll change for you. You can change him. He's only 80, a convicted felon, and an adjudicated rapist with 67 sex-crime allegations on him. Just keep rolling over. If you roll over enough maybe we can have the whole fucking world in flames by 2028.

More than 10,000 flights delayed in worst day of disruptions since shutdown More than 2,800 flights were canceled Sunday, while Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy said the shutdown’s impact on airports is “only going to get worse.”

This and the airline industry lobbyists are what did it. Not Americans starving and paying twice as much for healthcare.

Politicians complicate things. But this whole issue of why the House has closed down for the past 5 months and why Adelita Grijalva isn’t sworn in yet likely isn’t complicated at all. The answer is likely pretty damn simple: Trump is most likely a pedophile, and Speaker Johnson knows it. That’s all.

No. I was unemployed for a minute and used it to job hunt. That’s why I’m on a roll. I don’t care for linkdin.

Folks this is not a candid shot of the man at 11PM on a weekend, this is what he was doing while sitting in the middle of an internationally broadcast major press conference in the Oval Office

He is cooked, get him out of there ASAP—before we find ourselves in the midst of a second Great Depression

Another thing that broken.

About 300 employees of a nuclear facility in Russian Ulyanovsk region have gone on a massive strike because they are not paid any salary.

"At the moment, the salary delay has reached two months. Lunches have been canceled, there has been no food provided for a long time.

I didn't get fooled by the fake Sean Duffy quote, but many did—and I can't blame them for it

Why?

Because surely you've noticed that members of the Trump administration say shit this stupid every single day?

Distinguishing yesterday's incomprehensibly stupid shit from today's fake quote is *work*

Anyone else “on a roll” on LinkdIn? Just me?

The Washington Post Has Become Right-Wing Even Faster Than I Thought It’s not going to happen. It’s happening: The mainstream media is becoming right-wing. What are wealthy liberals going to do about it?

Tonight, over 240,000 Venezuelans will lose Temporary Protected Status.

The Trump administration is dismantling our core humanitarian protections, leaving hundreds of thousands at risk of detention, deportation, and harm.

Congress must protect TPS holders and pass a pathway to citizenship now.

What Does It Feel Like to Be Older and Hungry? Trump Doesn’t Care. Living on a fixed income is hard enough without having to worry about what Trump and his cronies plan to take away next.

Seniors make up an ever larger American demographic that’s being made ever more unsafe in the richest country in the world. Social Security, healthcare, even access to food, not to speak of general well-being are all under threat. Trump doesn’t care.
