$40B of your money to this guy, so he can dance at CPAC at Mar-a-Lago while Americans wait for their paychecks, hoping the money actually comes.

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice. It doesn't have to be this way.

HAPPY FOUR SEASONS TOTAL LANDSCAPING DAY TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE

In non-political news, I have learned how to reliably produce a very satisfactory sourdough loaf.

“Behind the rhetoric about ‘lazy freeloaders’ lies a stunning truth: America’s largest corporations depend on food stamps to prop up their low-wage empires...” hartmannreport.com/p/the-snap-s...

Here’s a writeup about the hearing from earlier today. Please note the statement from the University of California, notably not a plaintiff in this suit. It’s laughable. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/06/u...

Brother Warnock lays it plain.

This is Donald Trump: "‘..and a man, about 80 years old... he fell off the stage. So what happens is, this guy falls off right on his face, hits his head, and I thought he died. ‘And you know what I did? I said, “Oh my God, that’s disgusting,” and I turned away." uk.news.yahoo.com/donald-trump...

For real, if you can knit, whip up a Portland Frog hat or similar. I wore this it out this morning and the looks of joy on the way, especially from one of the construction workers. It's a small thing to say someone's paying attention to what's going on. #DHmakes swatch.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

"Europeans recognize his vision about free public transit and universal childcare. We expect our governments to make these kinds of services accessible to all of us,” said Verbeek. “We pay higher taxes and get civilized societies in return."

And a highly abridged list of the times men have taken credit for women's accomplishments...

“The destruction of U.S.A.I.D. [caused] public man-made death. And the cruelty and lethality will only grow as the Administration expands its rollback of public-health advances to the homeland.” www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

The conservative justices don't want to acknowledge this. This is their whole opinion—all jargon and boilerplate. By including the substance they omit, Jackson is making clear to people the gross things the Court is doing that the Court would really prefer no one know about.

This photo expresses a simple truth: Donald Trump is not the person you can count on when you need help.

This is like the 2-6 Cleveland Browns saying they're going to start printing playoff tickets

"Abandoned and failed projects, ca. 1998-2025: an incomplete, chronological list" -- worth your time, from Adam Smyth, who lists all the stuff he dropped or which didn't work adamsmyth.substack.com/p/abandoned-...

Good news! -- a bunch of housing is about to open up!

I am no longer employed so I'm not blogging Zohran tonight but I can just repeat exactly what I said in June :-) he won on the back of a pro-migrant, pro-trans, pro-working class campaign. and also: Dem pundits are full of shit

He WON, Democrats. What’s your excuse?

THe only possible point is cruelty Is this what YOU voted for?? www.notus.org/trump-white-...

Here's a YouTube link:

FACT-CHECK: “The @60minutes Trump interview showcased everything wrong with 🇺🇸 political interviews— deferential tone. lack of prep. Failure to ask follow-ups. inability (unwillingness?) to fact-check in real time.” zeteo.com/p/factchecki... @mehdirhasan nails it.

Kash Patel in 2023: “I’m just saying Chris Wray doesn’t need a government funded G5 jet to go to vacations. Maybe we ground that plane. $15,000 every time it takes off. Just a thought.”

This video is one of the most horribly blatant, anti-Christian, anti-human, blasphemous insults AGAINST Christianity and decency I think I have EVER seen.

The beginning looks like Hegseth getting ready for a sobriety test

I looked it up...over 48,000 of those SNAP households are in Clay Higgins' district. That's around 126,000 of his constituents, or 16% of the entire population of LA-03.

Kristi Noem is flat-out lying when she claims no U.S. citizen has been arrested in her violent crackdown. Do a web search on “immigration citizen arrested” and you’ll see. Here’s one of the many documented reports we found.

If you look at the White House demolition story and your first reaction is "no one gives a shit about this, they're worried about their bills" and not "this is the easiest proof point ever that the GOP doesn't give a shit about your bills" I'm afraid you have failed a fairly easy political IQ test

man, it sure looks like republicans are using threat of federal government force to try and silence journalists

Trump: "I haven't been watching it too much, the World Series. I'm disappointed they didn't put Pete Rose in. And with all the gambling you see now -- I mean, gimme a break."

It’s good to recap: “After $2 billion transaction with Trump cryptocurrency, convicted felon receives pardon” “Pentagon awards major drone contract to company linked to Trump Jr.” “Trump seeks $230 million payment from Justice Department officials he appointed” open.substack.com/pub/populari...

Not seeing much about the massive anti-Trump pro-Gaza protests are we? Funny, that. (Instead our media shows us Trump’s embarrassing dance moves and red carpet treatment)

"Tzefardea Tzedek" (Frog of Righteousness) As soon as the Portland Frog became a meme, Jewish social media blew up with jokes about the 2nd Passover plague - tzefarde'a (frogs) - and the Rabbinical commentary around it. I knew I had to make a calligraphy piece encompassing all of it. (more in alt.)

Boat strikes put US service members in legal jeopardy: "Some junior officers have asked military lawyers, known as judge advocates general or JAGs, for written sign-off before taking part in strikes .... It does not appear that such memos were furnished, said one of the people."

So incredibly corrupt. Shout out to everyone who complained endlessly about Hunter but says nothing about this. @RepTimBurchett @MarshaBlackburn @AndyOgles @RepFaison techstartups.com/2025/10/24/t...

Halloween at my house

it's dizzying to me that stories like this -- a corrupt grift built on democracy-wrecking lies that culminated in a coup attempt -- barely breakthrough anymore. they're just daily background noise now.

After securing $1 trillion in cuts to Medicaid earlier this year, Trump is now demanding a $230 million payday from the government.
