Comey, James cases dismissed as judge disqualifies interim US attorney Lindsey Halligan A judge concluded Halliganโ€™s appointment violated laws that limit the ability of DOJ to install top prosecutors without Senate confirmation.

Whatโ€™s next now that a judge has dismissed indictments against Jim Comey and Letitia James? Iโ€™ll discuss with Rachel Maddow at 9:40 pm ET on MS NOW.

Making literature of any kind illegal is one step towards being able to manufacture evidence that your perceived enemies are much more vast and dangerous than they are .

This is a floating signifier of sorts that will be used to target anyone the fascists see as a threat to their power.

This is often how personalist regimes work -- dozens of guys close to the leader compete for power and influence, backstabbing and out-maneuvering each other for the leader's attention/ignorance.

Heartbroken family of trans teen speaks out about how bullying led to his death The family of trans Iowa student Miles Phipps has spoken out about bullying following losing their son to suicide.ย He was just 15-years-old.

A trans teen in Iowa completed suicide after severe bullying by classmates and teachers.

"Milesโ€™ death came a day after a substitute teacher refused to use his preferred pronouns."

It's the type of bullying @thefireorg.bsky.social and @aricohn.com support.

It's always hard to pick a worst day politically, but today the president called for the death of members of the opposition party, and the administration decided that people were being too hard on the swastika

Maybe, lol! ๐Ÿคฃ I think itโ€™s because he knows Mamdani won big and has significant political juice right now. Trump is a whore for winners. Thatโ€™s pretty much it. Republicans didnโ€™t win shit, so went with the biggest Dem winner and great young talent in the Dem party to suck up to. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

Like what are we supposed to take away from Mamdaniโ€˜s meeting with Trump like is it Donaldโ€˜s kink to be called a fascist by handsome men?

I am legitimately asking as a confused queer person

women will go to a hangout with a guy and things will be going well until the girl casually mentions she finished this book and he'll go home and start posting stuff like "Our future is ruined because of wokeness and women with fake degrees" meanwhile the girl went home to play video games with a bunch of weird discord transsexuals and she named her character "beegirl" and she keeps saying stuff like "i'm beegirl" and the discord transsexuals ask what kind of bee and she talks about carpenter bees for 10 minutes and everyone loves it and learns a lot

Thatโ€™s awesome, Laura!! Sorry we missed you! Do you have any Thanksgiving recipes? I asked the group earlier. Iโ€™m being all domestic this year and trying to do the whole meal for Mom and me and two friends here in Nebraska so any cool recipe suggestions would be welcome! ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š

I didnโ€™t get a chance to say it before, but have (had) to miss #HATM tonight. BUT I promise it was for good reason . . .

(The reason was John Oliver and Seth Meyers! @lastweektonight.com @latenightseth.bsky.social)

No worries, Alison! In Nebraska, Iโ€™m just in the Mountain time zone by 10 miles or so. The Central and Mountain time zones basically split the state in half. In fact, the Central Time Zone borders my home county on not only its eastern border, but also its northern and southern borders. ๐Ÿ‘
