I think it is interesting that Bernie's position has always been strong border protections, as a form of labor rights protections and a race to the bottom as far as working conditions in general. It's really wild watching people not realize this has been his position for a very long time.

For those unaware the right appears to be breaking into two factions right now. MAGA/Trump vs "AmeriKKKa First" (which is to say Fuentes, Carlson, Owens, etc) So just know when congresspeople vote to release the files, it does not at all signal their lust for authoritarianism ended.

One of the real revelations of the Epstein emails is that Epstein himself was not especially bright, dispelling the "genius" tag that had always seemed ill fitting. It's almost like there was some other reason rich and powerful men were drawn to him, some other skill he had. Weird.

Trump’s new “affordability” push is basically reversing the tariffs he said would never cause un-affordability. @nytimes.com 🤡 www.nytimes.com/2025/11/13/u...

"NYPD has used facial recognition and selective enforcement against certain NYPD critics." "[T]wo men were wrongly targeted by facial recognition at the [2019] New Year's Eve celebration [..] for not dancing and speaking a Middle Eastern language." #NewYork #USA #Policing #Surveillance #Technology

The government's intelligence gathering apparatus is literally "I saw this snuff film on X" now and I have no idea why people haven't realized this or still post there regularly like you're not feeding a government surveillance firehose.

Priorities.

It’s not about your girlfriend. It’s about you wasting taxpayer money.

Wtf

Does @scottjenning.bsky.social know he's a lolcow and if he does, is he happy getting paid to be one because he has a humiliation kink? He's absolutely one of the biggest reasons @cnn.com struggles to have any credibility given all his OANN POV takes and in ability to recognize factual reality.

Fact-check: true 😕

OMG it took them less than 24 hours to get into the debate of what the dictionary definition of pedophile is. HAHAHAHAHA Does Megyn not know "barely legal" means 18... not 15... One is a perverted thing and the other is a criminal thing and both can be abusive and unfair power dynamics w/ victims.

Attacking a federal district judge as an “activist” for issuing a lawful ruling is an assault on judicial independence. A democracy cannot function when executive agencies denigrate judges for doing their jobs.

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find: - NONE of the arrested were criminally charged - NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists." - ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

So dark. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/13/u...

About half of what it was going to cost to fully fund SNAP in November during the shutdown.

I have no idea what my stress level would of been if I had been struggling to feed a new baby..on my own. I was fortunate. and I stayed home. Did it hurt my family financially, yes, but I was dumb about money..

REP. JOHN ROSE (R): "MARSHA BLACKBURN is planning to put millions of dollars in her own pocket at the expense of the American taxpayer." (@repjohnrose is running against @marshablackburn for governor. Senator Hagerty is also guilty of this shameless self-dealing.) #MarshaMoneyGrab

Well well well

In Bovino's upside down world, there is no difference between an armed gang member preying on others in his community and a guy working 12 hours a day washing cars, flipping burgers, or installing sheetrock to feed his family — and he wants you to hate and fear both men equally.

Damn.

It is never too late to disavow the terrible people in your field of endeavor that you had been defending. First rule of holes: put down the shovel.

Looks like JD Vance is going to need to change religions again.

Important developments discussed here. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Massie is a piece of shit and while I'm glad to see him not supporting his party supporting pedophiles, I would also guess this, like MTG has a lot to do with wanting to have a career post-Trump

Wasn’t expecting the Epstein scandal to blow up the New York Times but sure, why not

Correct. He, and they, can't help themselves.

Wow so she was AG of Florida that whole time Epstein is going buck wild down there huh

The GOP’s coalition is holding on by a bare thread and when Trump is gone it will fall apart. Our task (and it’s not easy!) is to build a Democratic Party capable of picking up the pieces.

This isn’t even the stuff they’re trying to actually stop from getting out.

FITCHBURG, MA: As agents detained his family, a father holding his baby went into a seizure from stress. The child cried in terror, trapped in his tightening arms while their mother was taken away, reaching helplessly for her baby. #ICEWATCH

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Anyway, though all this seems bad for Trump, I think we have to consider the gains he will make in the modern Libertarian Party

“.. Grocery prices. Gas prices. Prescription drug prices. Overall prices. Over just three days, Trump made false claims about all of them. “.. As of September, the year-over-year inflation rate had increased for five consecutive months.” @ddale8.bsky.social www.cnn.com/2025/11/10/p...

It is incredible — the blind spots you develop when you’ve never, ever been poor.

Oh that sounds fun. I’m always looking for *more opportunities to talk to insurance providers.

Trust was gravely harmed @whitehouse.senate.gov and you can say we need to unite but at the same time you're saying our only resolution to this will be a vote that will fail and the possibility of another shutdown that will cause more pain and more destruction. This wasn't the answer.

@schumer.senate.gov is either complicit in the defector's plans OR he's absolutely and entirely incapable of leading, or both. The end result is the same, he must resign. I get people want to spin this into a win for Democrats, but they got nothing & making the GOP look bad is ineffective politics.

Angus king is a weak little bitch. Quitter, loser, traitor.

Newsom: "It's not about rule of law anymore. It's rule of Don. He's choosing which court decisions he agrees with. He's quite literally running an extortion racket. He's doing it with some of the most powerful corporate leaders. What does everything have in common? Tariffs. They're about leverage"

This isn't working together, this is you telling Republicans that if they do the absolute worst things you will capitulate to their every demand eventually no matter how grave the harm they cause or consequences the American people must suffer. @shaheen.senate.gov You won nothing, protected no one.

She has a guaranteed vote by a guaranteed date with no guarantee that they don't just vote no or turn it down. She also has no guarantee of anything in the House, not a vote, not a date, not a gaseous fart.

This shit is why people don’t trust the Democratic Party.

So the Dem #CaveCaucus aren't even getting a real vote out of their surrender: ♦️Without a House vote, any Senate vote is meaningless. ♦️And without at least 4 GOP crossovers, a Senate vote is meaningless too.

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous
