Day 1771 – Nov. 25, 2025 ✨ "Standard negotiation."

incredible photo that's definitely worth at least 1,000 words from Andrew Harnik of Getty

Ken Levy, a tenured law professor at LSU, was suspended for criticizing Donald Trump in the classroom. Hear his disturbing story on Books and More. #freespeech #firstamendment #Trump democracyinamerica.substack.com/p/interview-...

"US Marshal shot during immigration enforcement in LA" * article explains he was shot by an ICE officer whose weapon discharged when he used it to smash a car window

He’s really going to make this happen, isn’t he???

the president has destroyed the east wing of the white house without so much as a word of input from anyone else to build a royal ballroom paid for with bribes

Trump & Republicans are quietly trying to disenfranchise millions of Americans. Submit a comment to the EAC to stop their scheme and protect voting rights: act.standupamerica.com/letters/eac-...

would love to hear more congressional democrats say "should we win power next year we are going to treat every one of these as bribes and act accordingly" arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

Don’t believe a word the liars have to say. This fight is about the healthcare of the American people.

Trump to generals: "America is under invasion from within. We're under invasion from within. No different than a foreign enemy, but more difficult in any ways because they don't wear uniforms. At least when they're wearing a uniform you can take them out."

Did he just declare war on four American cities?

The endgame for all of this is constructing a military that will obey orders when ordered to fire on citizens. That's the throughline to half of what Trump is doing.

The generals aren’t applauding Trump’s partisan speech because they are strictly apolitical. But I imagine their silence will only feed Trump’s animus against the generals. The generals should never have been put in this untenable position.

If Joe Biden's speaking cadence was a major news item that the press saw fit to opine about for days, why are we not hearing a peep about the noticeable slur coming from Trump in this speech? Don't tell me, I already know.

He's telling us what he's doing. Using the military to suppress protest. At some point the opposition needs to listen to him and adjust strategy.

“The oath says enemies foreign and domestic… well, we also have domestic.” Trump tells the generals he plans to use the military against Americans

The whole “it’s the left’s fault the right supports censorship” bullshit is rubes and propagandists trying to save face for being useful idiots or willing accomplices for the greatest censorship campaign since the red scare. Otherwise they’d have to admit to being wrong bsky.app/profile/jeff...

Hey remember when the CDC dropped 6 of the 8 foodborne illnesses from the nationwide monitoring system in July and one of them was listeria? Mentioning for no particular reason www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

America’s military leadership has more important things to do than listen to lectures on character from an unqualified drunk who assaults women. Any soldier who was as careless as Hegseth was with war plans would be fired if not prosecuted. And everyone in that room knows it.

WHATEVER YOU DO, REMEMBER NOT TO CALL THE PRESIDENT A FASCIST THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

At the Nuremberg trials, Karl Dönitz was convicted of war crimes for the sinking of civilian vessels. This is not a complicated question, it's been illegal for centuries.

I've been trying to understand why this isn't generating as much fury as it should, and i think it's because there is a fundamental belief among many americans that the military can pretty much do whatever (which isn't entirely inaccurate.) that said, what the actual fuck.

Murphy continues to be a really clear voice

Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension makes plain that, as long as Donald Trump continues to abuse his executive power, the titans of American capitalism can’t be relied on to push back.

Should be good.

RIP Robert Redford....

Would be great if there was a famous actor who wanted to elevate important political stories right now. RIP Robert Redford

Don't ever forget. #ResistTrump

“Militant, nationalistic, white supremacist violent extremism has increased in the United States. In fact, the number of far-right attacks continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism.”

The thing about lying is that it snowballs quickly. So, when you’re trying to lie to an entire nation, there’s infinite ground you have to cover. It is simply not possible to not get caught. The Trump regime is wrapped in its own web of lies, one it will keep tripping over until it’s stuck for good.

In the 80s, a fact checker found that an unedited issue of The New Yorker contained 1,000 errors. (This figure itself wouldn’t survive a fact-check, but never mind.) Zach Helfand delves into the history of the vaunted department.

A nonprofit wants to turn Willa’s Books & Vinyl, a bookstore dedicated to Black history in Kansas City, Missouri, into a public archive. Founder Willa Robinson wants young Black readers to see themselves in what they read, and she fears that such books will be banned.

Shivers down my spine. What a set of ghouls and charlatans. Thanks to Amy Schoenfeld Walker and @lazarogamio.bsky.social for this. These people want to take away your vaccines. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Trump has threatened to expand his military campaign to Baltimore. But the city's mayor and Maryland's governor are pushing back. www.npr.org/2025/09/16/n...

The attack on Charlie Kirk is disgusting, vile, and reprehensible. In the United States of America, we must reject political violence in EVERY form.

Oy. I read the story. Awful. Don't want to see the video. This is terrible. We need gun control now. Once hate and violence are empowered, no one is safe

Putin is ready to claim victory now. “He can say: ‘Look, you have tried to isolate me, but I am meeting with the American president while you, Europeans, have to crawl on your knees and call him ‘Daddy,’” said Sergey Radchenko, a Cold War historian at Johns Hopkins University.

So far, the National Guard in DC seem to be mostly taking photos with tourists. What a colossal waste of human resources and money.

Why read books? Because there's a book for EVERYONE out there. And once you find the right book - reading will change your life forever! #literacy (Art: Charles M Schulz)
