Good morning in the woods of northern Minnesota.

Passing through a small, northwest Minnesota town and came across an anti-Trump protest calling for SNAP benefits to be restored and no ballroom. Didn't catch the other signs. Never would have expected that in this region.

Not winning? Just starve your opposition.

Per independent experts, layoffs last month were over 153K — the worst October in 22 years.

Over 1 million workers have been laid off this year, partially because of AI and chaotic mismanagement of the economy.

Welcome to Trump's "New Golden Age."

So Mamdani's win in NYC was so powerful Tuesday night that Trump has become a socialist too?

After the Democrats’ good night, is the tradwife movement having a moment?

I knew X was a cesspool, but good god.

Seeing a lot of this after Mamdani's win from the right lol

US Army Tells Soldiers to Go to German Food Bank, Then Deletes It The initial 'Shutdown Guidance' for the US Army Garrison Bavaria included instructions to go to German food banks.

NEW: The US Army website for its bases in Bavaria, Germany told its soldiers and employees that it might need to obtain free food from the German government during the US government shutdown.

The Army later altered publication to remove a list of food banks, but we have the original text here:

Hat tip @wilsonar.bsky.social for this! 🤣

Getting new details on this now:

As the arrest unfolded, teachers pleaded with the agents telling them the teacher had a work permit. The agents went into multiple rooms looking for teachers while children were present. One teacher hid with a child in her care while the agents stormed the facility.

This would have been better in Comic Sans

If the sandwich don’t split, you must acquit

I can't wait to vote my rep out of office next year.

Most productive? You haven't been working for a month.

The Trump administration has killed IRS Direct File, the program that let you file your taxes for free. Direct File will not be operational this coming tax season.

The only person who has been seizing private companies through the power of the state is Trump.

Amazing how upfront and unfiltered he is about his ongoing authoritarian project. The goal is to make sure the opposition can never win, and he flat-out says it.

Feel slightly more positive. A lot of work to be done yet.

Nobody will ever match the Simpsons’ perfect summation of America’s indefensible two-party system.

They replaced him with somebody, the press got behind her. Oh, they were so behind her. But eventually she failed because she couldn't speak. She wasn't a very intelligent person, in my opinion. But she couldn't speak properly. She could not speak. And actually 60 Minutes paid me a lotta money. And you don't have to put this on, because I don't wanna embarrass you, and I'm sure you're not-- you have a great-- I think you have a great, new leader, frankly, who's the young woman that's leading your whole enterprise is a great-- from what I know. I don't know her, but I hear she's a great person. But 60 Minutes was forced to pay me-- a lot of money because they took her answer out that was so bad, it was election-changing, two nights before the election. And they put a new answer in. And they paid me a lot of money for that. You can't have fake news. You've gotta have legit news. And I think that it's happening. I see-- NORAH O'DONNELL: Mr. President-- PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: --I see good things happening in the news. I really do. And I think one of the best things to happen is this show and new ownership, CBS and new ownership. I think it's the greatest thing that's happened in a long time to a free and open and good press.

Oh, look at this portion of the Trump interview that 60 Minutes didn't air tonight -- it features him boasting that "60 Minutes was forced to pay me a lot of money," saying Bari Weiss is a "great person," and that David Ellison buying CBS is the "greatest thing that's happened in a long time."

I dug the mariachi anthems for Dia De Los Muertos.

Nancy Mace is one of those people who is deeply miserable yet not as miserable as she deserves.

Bowl has been cleaned out for the first time since we moved in 5 years ago.

Fair amount of trick or treaters roaming the neighborhood, seems like more than the last couple of years. Took our daughter out for her first one
