This is awful news. Shame on RFJjr once again, too. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

What a rare development! The Trib’s paywall has irritated me for years.

It sounds like an old-school fairy tale; the dark, scary kind. She’s a modern day “Thinderella.” I hope she gains strength and recovers. The dad and stepmom and step siblings sound like monsters of ignorance. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

I lost respect long ago for the Post editorial board, but this spot on. MTG is just a gold digger - she gets out as soon as she gets it. wapo.st/4oin3UV

Some happy #hippo related news! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The #InternetKittyOfTheWeek is announced, and it’s Penelope! She approached confidently in a parking lot and has moved right in with one of @proleftpodcast.bsky.social ‘s adult children. She is a sweet panther. Happy #CaturdayEve to all! www.patreon.com/posts/144054...

“Argle Bargle” reminds me of a footnote in “Bored Of The Rings” (the old National Lampoon parody). So I guess we’re in the reign of Argle Bargle II, the Mad King of Queens. @colbertlateshow.bsky.social www.texasobserver.org/loon-star-st...

Welp, as a consequence of going on long-term disability (coverage I paid for thru my… former company), I’m not only terminated but my healthcare coverage ends 30NOV25. Doesn’t matter what I just enrolled in a week ago, I’m going on COBRA first and Medicare on 01/01/2026. Probably an Advantage PPO.

pResident Piggy tRump says what now? #Evergreen

One consequence shall be that he will be called "PIGGY" from now on.

He’s going to get people killed. He’s unhinged, he’s off his head. Via #NPR - Trump calls video by Democratic veterans in Congress 'seditious behavior' www.npr.org/2025/11/20/n...

If Halligan pulled a grand jury switcheroo, and did not inform the court, this could be her deepest trouble yet.

I suspect the name of a certain "prosecutor" in EDVA will soon become a verb.

Senate passed the bill to release Epstein files via unanimous consent. Trump claims he will sign it. So now it remains to be see if Pam Bondi won't release the files due to an 'active investigation.' I'd guess yes. www.bbc.com/news/live/cv...

First off. Not my govt. Second I know how it works. Senate already passed it with unanimous consent when I posted. It's done.

It will not go to the 5th Circuit. By law it goes straight to SCOTUS. Ron DeSantis is a moron. For accurate information, analysis and opinion about voting rights and elections in the courts subscribe to Democracy Docket. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Trump: "You don't have to embarrass our guest." Also Trump........

Keep 'em coming That's a twofer for #Texas today

BREAKING: Texas Republicans just suffered a HUGE LOSS. As a result, if this decision stands, Democrats will pick up 5-6 seats in the House next year because Texas could not gerrymander. www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9KC...

RIP Jamal. You deserved better.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered. He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here : www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/glo...

She simply quoted US Intelligence, it’s not ‘fake’ question, but triggered him so hard he had a 5yo temper tantrum! Trump is in a downward spiral. She’s a hero! Say her name Mary Bruce from ABC! 🏆

Sarah Matthews: "We want transparency for the American people and the victims of Jefferey Epstein." The House just voted to release the Epstein files; now it is time for the Senate to do the same. Follow us @ofthebraveusa.bsky.social and join the fight!

This. There is a lot that happened around the continuity of the funding that made it feel like someone broke the database and they were covering it up. This is just fuel for the fire. The other idea being they've misplaced the actual money.

Meanwhile, it’s so disorienting when Republicans are actually frank and truthful. (Futurama .gif - Fry looks suspicious of dubious claim) crooksandliars.com/2025/11/mass...

Yeah, it’s a sham, and he gobbled lots of media eyeballs when he “truthed” (lied) to us that the House GOP should vote to release the files (that the Senate won’t pass, and that he won’t sign if they do). talkingpointsmemo.com/morning-memo...

"She began to record the agents as they spoke to the landscaper in Spanish. After the agents noticed her phone, they got back in their vehicles and drove away..." www.nytimes.com/2025/11/15/u...

Grandpa D(eflecti)on wants to shi(f)t something on the House GOP. He’s always had the power to release them; just clack cankles 3 times, resign, and await Pres. J Davenport Vance’s pardon. “In a shift, Trump says House Republicans should vote to release Epstein files” www.npr.org/2025/11/16/n...

Utah Legislators are having a hissy fit over having to follow the law and Utah’s own constitution This is what happens when a legislature’s legal brief is FoxNews horseshit

So true.

He’s not pulling them out of his hat, for sure.

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.

Consensus:

Happy anniversary, @weratedogs.com #WeRateDogs You are 15/10 in our extended family!

Okay, can’t stand MTG and find her sudden threetoe-turn baffling (as opposed to a traditional heel turn). But what are the Guardian photo editors thinking? Cropped the image on this headlines summary; she’s engulfing that mic, is it named Bubba or something? PS? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

She will be missed, sad loss. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Meanwhile, have filed a claim that was a really long, long document. Going forward, less stress in the coming year trying to get doctors to sign forms each month.

Release the Trump-Epstein files.

He served his time, he has PTSD, and a Purple Heart. Deported at 4am this morning Arizona time to Mexico. This is how we treat veterans www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Oh, dear. #ALTTEXT A Venn diagram of two intersecting circles labeled “darkest times” and “dumbest times.” The intersection is labeled “you are here.” The circles are superimposed over a cartoon Trump ass. We are literally in deep doo-doo. mockpaperscissors.com/2025/11/14/b...

Happy #Caturday Eve! Miss Catty Lavelle is warming up for tomorrow’s events with her schmousie. Her hoomin catdad offered it to her as a replacement, as she had been playing with some bits of yarn that were a choking hazard.

This is a really tragic and infuriating story. We need to do better by our veterans who weren’t born citizens, who were promised citizenship but didn’t receive it without a struggle. There’s a Spanish language version of this story, too. chicago.suntimes.com/other-views/...

We’re fired up and ready to elect @aftynbehn.bsky.social to Congress! Early voting has started in #TN07, so make some calls to help get out the vote. Phonebanks are especially important in special elections — please sign up for a shift to flip this GOP district: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

Got some news today. I have been on short term disability from work ever since I had my happy fun ball stroke on the right side of my braaaaainsss in mid-May. It was getting harder and harder to get the files the STD team required, multiple doctors, multiple charting systems, every month. 1/X
