The secretary of defense throwing a top military official under the bus to protect himself. A beacon of integrity.

If Admiral Bradley didn’t realize before that these cowards were setting him up to take the fall, he knows it now. Time to hire a good lawyer.

Sadly relevant today.

Fentanyl. Drug Overdoses, including Fentanyl, are not even in the top 20 causes of death in the USA. Cancer, Diabetes, Covid, Heart Disease all in the top 10, and all have had their research funding cut. They aren't murdering just Venezuelans. However they are killing us much slower.

Congratulations, Norm!!

Looks like Trump and Hegseth might be preparing to throw the military under the bus on the second strike. This is why you don’t execute illegal orders. Because you are responsible

These Karoline Leavitt "press conferences" are completely worthless propaganda full of shameless lies. They should be ignored by the media and all of us.

Reporter: You said that that second strike was in full accordance with the law of armed conflict but the Navy's own manual of law of war says that specifically firing on survivors from a wrecked vessel is an example of a war crime that's forbidden under U.S. Law and the law of armed conflict…

I'm 30. Growing up, my great aunt lived with me and my family. She lived to over 95. She was born in 1915... 2 years after Harriet Tubman died. Never let them tell you it was "so long ago". It's just a few generations back

They play music in the OR when I get ECT. I get to pick the music! At least, I *used* to. I have not been asked to pick my seizure music for the last 2 sessions. Was it because I only ever picked MCR and The Protomen to listen to while getting electrucuted? Did they finally get fed up?

What a bunch of shady creepers.

…and yes, I was part of the Epstein crowd.🔻

Two months ago I wrote about why my law firm is litigating 63 voting and election cases. Today it is 65 cases covering more than half the country. Eleven of them involve redistricting. Where are the big law firms? Why isn't legacy media covering this? www.democracydocket.com/opinion/why-...

Sen. Kelly: “This is about a president who doesn't want anybody to say anything that he does not like. I don't think he understands the Constitution. I think he is ignorant to the Constitution and the rule of law…This isn't about me. This is about what he will do next.”

The same people who i used to fight with in the GOP, who wanted to withdraw American troops from everywhere, are now the ones justifying the murder of two survivors. It’s almost like…. It was never about that

In case you needed even more motivation to vote in the Midterm elections... #AccountabilityIsComing

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

If your doctor decided you needed an MRI (indicating concern about something serious) and you claim that you didn't ask why or what part of your body he wanted to look at, you are: 1. Really stupid; or 2. Dangerously detached from reality; or 4. Lying; or 4. All three. 🎯

That’s rich coming from the architect. McConnell is just as responsible as Trump. He thought he could still control Trump and the senators, but he got older and Trump got bolder. #leopardsatemyface #Politics #News

The mountains kneel to hold this water, the beautiful blue. I came here to think but the lake swallowed my thoughts, gave me back only silence, only thirst, only the unbearable truth that I will leave and it will stay, blue and indifferent, forever.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​.... #photography #patagonia

I woke up this morning to find that my post about the Epstein files has over 1.3k likes.

The fate of the free world rests on someone who requires weekly MRI tests to monitor his advancing dementia. We can do better.

When is the 30 days to release the Epstein files up? This week?

Kylie Cheung at Abortion, Every Day writes about the future anti-abortion extremists want: "One in which we’re not just stripped of our most basic rights, but also deemed crazy for fighting back—even just for pointing out what’s being done to us."

Today is World AIDS Day, a day that reminds me of the decades-long fight for dignity, science, and compassion. We’ve come so far because activists, researchers, and communities refused to be ignored.

I just heard a promo for a podcast WITH Allison Mack. Not just about her. With her. And, like, I just watched a couple of docuseries about Nxivm and I responded with a full shudder and ick feeling. I can't imagine being one of the many, many victims and getting this ad fed to me randomly.

BREAKING: A federal appeals court has disqualified President Trump's former personal attorney Alina Habba from serving as the U.S. attorney for New Jersey.

Reposting this everyday until Pete Hagueseth faces justice for his crimes against humanity.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.

Community notes don’t get much more brutal than this

Each month, the Charlottesville Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee hosts and leads a walk through a different neighborhood in the city. For November the walk was in the Venable neighborhood. I took some photos of the group as well as some stuff we saw along the way.

Opening the door to throw Hegseth under the bus:

Thank you to all the volunteers! Rep. Aftyn Behn reported that more than 600 volunteers turned out and knocked on 13,000 doors. Let’s flip TN’s 7th District! And if you’ve got time, they still need help!

If you fall for a billionaire telling you to hate your neighbors, especially if you claim to be Christian, I don't know, man. That's pretty stupid.

The Citizens United decision has corrupted our government and is destroying our democracy. Here's a way to get rid of it. robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get...

No commercial has ever been less effective to my purchasing decisions than “Experience Abu Dhabi”. If someone gave me free tickets & accommodations, I’d try to cash in the tickets for credit to fly someplace else. If that failed, I’d let the trip expire.
