“Ticking Time Bomb”: A Pregnant Mother Kept Getting Sicker. She Died After She Couldn’t Get an Abortion in Texas. Walker is one of several women ProPublica found with underlying health conditions who died when they couldn’t access abortions.

One that I rarely see mentioned, but that I enjoyed is The Package. It’s set in France, because the characters are on a package tour. It has beautiful scenery, low angst, and just 12 episodes.

Of all my posts, this is the one that I wish would be shared widely. I hope people will donate to Bryan's legal defense, but even if you don't, it's important to be aware of the human rights horrors that are going on around us on a daily basis.

Ever since I read Letters from the Editor — the collected letters of The New Yorker’s founding editor, Harold Ross — back when I was starting out in journalism, I’ve had this more full understanding of E.B. White, so, yeah. Not on my watch.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.

Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

1/ I’d like to share what’s happened since Sept. 30, the night of the most dramatic raid of the Trump administration’s Operation Midway Blitz in Chicago. Under the cover of darkness, 37 immigrants were taken from an apartment complex …🧵

The Trump family is chasing another real estate deal in Saudi Arabia.

And the Saudis want a mutual defense agreement and access to U.S. nuclear technology.

Looks like Trump and the royal family will both win, with our national security for sale. The only losers? The American people.

Tom Petty and more on the story behind Prince’s “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” solo – and the mystery of the disappearing guitar “Everybody wonders where that guitar went, and I gotta tell you, I was on the stage, and I wonder where it went, too.”

I have heard this from several ex-Walmart employees

Disney has hiked prices and laid off hundreds of workers this year.

Yet Disney paid its CEO $41B in 2024. It just reported a 36% increase in net profits for parks and streaming. And it plans to double stock buybacks next year.

Remember this as Disney turns to AI.

BREAKING:

There are NOT the votes in the Indiana Senate to support Trump’s and Vance’s election-rigging (in advance) scheme!!

An amazing coalition across party lines made sure this happened.

Way to go all!!

Never stop fighting for democracy!!!

If you want to stop grown ass men like Gaetz from sexually exploiting children, you have to have strong institutions that materially support people.

I signed up for AVCX Crosswords a few weeks back, and it’s swiftly become a top favorite of mine. The puzzles are very fun, beautifully constructed and clever, and they’re doing great things. Supporting quality work, getting a quality product, good stuff all around.

Kristi Noem sits on a horse wearing a cowboy hat. In the background is Mount Rushmore.

NEW: We’ve uncovered the first known example of taxpayer money flowing from DHS to businesses controlled by Kristi Noem’s allies and friends.

It’s part of a money trail that’s been shrouded in secrecy—and involves $220 million, a mysterious Delaware LLC & a horse named Gill.

There are no actual plans because they aren’t interested in trying to do any of those things.

A bad thing is unfolding at NIH this week: It looks like the Trump administration is trying to replace key civil servant scientific leaders, the Institute Directors, with political hires. These directors control the NIH budget, tens of billions.

A bit of a video explainer here: 1/ 🧪

Kids, this is state TV in action:

This is going to be very nuanced and very divisive. I hope you will do me the courtesy of reading the whole thing and digesting it before commenting.

Okay?

Good, here goes:

I think many people in our party misunderstand what a congressional leader is.

I mean have you experienced the US

I’m not sure if they’ve been mentioned yet, but The Bitter Southerner @bittersouth.bsky.social and Flaming Hydra @flaminghydra.com are two good ones.

Did you know that the government funding bill has a provision that forces the DOJ to give millions in taxpayer money to at least 8 Republican Senators investigated after the Jan 6 insurrection? Not exaggerating. And when I proposed an amendment last night to stop it, House Republicans voted it down.
