BREAKING: Democrats have flipped a conservative state House seat in Georgia in yet another upset. It's a 14-point overperformance *and* the 25th legislative flip of the year for Dems. Republicans? Zero. Read our complete writeup here -->

It really seems like this administration is trying to eliminate the field of public health. MPHs and DrPHs will no longer be considered "professional degrees" by the DOE and, therefore, will face limits to accessing federal student loans. aspph.org/department-o...

A federal judge refused to block the government’s overhaul of a DHS immigration status database into a national voter verification tool, even as she questioned its legality. The new GOP-backed database is aimed at purging noncitizens from voter rolls. https://bit.ly/48ig3Cx

Michael Knowles: "Merrick Garland was a complete political hack." Brian: "If Merrick Garland was a political hack, do you think Pam Bondi is a political hack?" Michael: "I think Pam Bondi is doing a very good job."

Montana’s amendment doesn’t aim to overturn the Citizens United ruling. If passed, it would merely render the ruling ineffective within Montana because businesses operating in the state would have to abide by its definition of corporations.

"I’m told that Mamdani’s team and other New York officials have already begun quiet but urgent preparations for hostile deployments from ICE, the National Guard, or both." Read about it in the latest edition of Huddled Masses from @adriancarrasquillo.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/after-zohr...

Today at the White House: questions ignored, reporters rushed out of the Oval, and an emergency meeting called in the Situation Room. But, yea —Trump is innocent. 😇 #BlueSky #NewsSky

"Convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein" is a phrase that first appeared in newspapers in March 2011 and appeared regularly from that point onward. it is INCONCEIVABLE to me that this many people were still associating with him!!

This!!!!!!!!!!!

Congress is moving quickly to pass a funding package that would end the longest federal shutdown in the nation’s history. Here’s what’s in the bill, based on summaries provided by Congress: https://cnn.it/4qVFT6N

Amendment which strikes section which “allows senators who were legally subpoenaed during the January 6 criminal conspiracy investigation to get millions of dollars deposited into their bank accounts at taxpayer expense” voted down by Republicans

WATCH — @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social : “My amendment would redirect that $40 BILLION from Argentina to fund the ACA subsidies for two years… a far better use of taxpayer dollars.” Why do we have money for Argentina while our own people lose their health care? How does this make us great?

Clark: So what are we doing here today? You have already voted to dismantle medicaid, the largest health care program in America. A program that covers 40% of all births in this country. 40% of children in this country. 40% of disabled people in this country.

ICE pours large canister of pepper spray directly into family car, hitting 1-year-old baby. "They were simply shopping at Sam's Club," said Matt, who filmed this video. "ICE agents drove by and sprayed pepper spray directly inside, where their baby and 16-year-old sister sat." #BlueCrew #ProudBlue

No matter how hard I try, and no matter how long it goes on, I just can't get used to the president of the United States routinely promoting lies of the most imbecilic and easily disprovable nature (or in this case mistaking satire for reality). truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT...

Trump’s illegal and erratic actions are creating a mass hunger crisis and an unsustainable burden on Food Banks. Trump’s indifference to the suffering of others is matched only by his personal greed and drive to become all powerful.

Convicted sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell's prison emails show she is 'happier' at the minimum-security Texas facility the Trump administration transferred her to. "The institution is run in an orderly fashion which makes for a safer more comfortable environment." www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

In a reversal, the USDA now tells states that issued full SNAP benefits they should "immediately undo" distributions or potentially face future cuts.

www.nytimes.com/2025/11/08/o... "...all Trump has to do is restore the American aid that was estimated to be saving the lives of more than a quarter-million Nigerians each year."

Frogs! #PortlandWins www.nytimes.com/2025/11/07/u...

KBJ threaded the needle thanks to CA1’s unfinished business. -if she denied the admin stay, the full SCOTUS woulda stepped in to override her. -if she immediately referred the case to the full Court, they coulda dragged feet. -instead she boxed them in to act quickly once she does refer the case.

For everyone wondering. Jackson ruled on the immediate request because she handles emergency appeals arising from the First Circuit by default.

Isnt she blocking the maga judges from helping trump by telling the 1C they have 48 hours to finalize and release their decision? @kenwhite.bsky.social

Yes, 1st circuit hasn’t ruled

She wants an order from the First Circuit upholding the trial court. That would give the liberal minority a foothold to argue the Supreme Court should do so as well. a strategic stay to increase chance of restarting SNAP benefits.

This is Adelita Grijalva. She was elected 43 days ago. Republicans still refuse to swear her in because she is the final vote needed to release the Epstein Files.

Mockler: Throughout my youth, I've watched Donald Trump normalize a type of extremist rhetoric that the U.S. has never seen before. Now, that is manifesting in the GOP…

Mockler: The way that Donald Trump speaks about the democratic party, the way that Donald Trump speaks about people who disagree with him, has normalized his extremist rhetoric. He said that we were gnats who need to be taken care of in front of the military.

Last night was a thumping from coast to coast. Across the country, voters rejected chaos and cynicism – and chose leaders who are focused on the cost of everyday life.

The study looked at electronic health records from about 130,000 adults with insomnia over five years. It found that people who had used melatonin for at least a year were more likely to later be diagnosed with heart failure or die from any cause. Sounds worrying, right? But here’s the catch 👇

You may have seen scary headlines linking melatonin and a higher risk of heart failure. But when you look closely at the research behind those headlines, it’s much less alarming. Let’s break down what the study actually did, and what it didn’t. 🧵

Reminder - this guy is NOT a doctor, NOT a scientist and had had part of his brain eaten by a worm … can we not!! people.com/cheryl-hines...

It’s also worth noting that so many SNAP recipients are veterans, with the national guard and reserves, and active duty U.S. military members.
