MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

JUST IN: Mike Johnson plans to swear in Rep.-elect Matt Van Epps on Thursday — less than two days after he won the TN-07 special election. As a reminder, it took Johnson 50 days to swear in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva.

ATTN GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES: The VA sent out an announcement with a link for employees to self-report their disabilities. I wouldn’t do this if I were you. They’ll likely use it to discriminate against you.

Community notes don’t get much more brutal than this

Time to spend all day watching movies! Alien (1979) An absolute classic, one of my favorites. Scifi Horror at its best. HR Giger's design is awe inspiring, Weaver is powerful force. Wonder and terror awaits. We're watching all of them today though. Join me, won't you? Who else is a fan?

My health insurance premiums will more than double in January. I pay a little less than $500/month for my current silver plan. I just reapplied and my new premium will be $1062/month. And don’t forget: I still have a co-pay for every visit and pay for prescriptions.

Except that’s what everyone on the right was doing before we learned it was the Trump admin that granted him asylum - and most are still doing it. If only Republicans would blame the shooters more often instead of trying to use deranged acts by individuals for political gain.

In the richest city in the richest country on the planet, the thing we can’t afford is to forget those who are left hungry.

If a phone still works fine, it’s not “device hoarding” to keep using it. It’s common sense.

Real power is being able to cut them off from their revenue stream.

BREAKING: new emails CONFIRM my reporting that there are TRAINING VIDEOS instructing FBI personnel on how to review the Epstein Files. Plus, a lot more…

New York City helped my mother become the artist she is today. The next generation deserves a City Hall that lifts up tomorrow's artists as well.

I've heard worse ideas.👀

The movie listed at #1 is so incredibly misplaced that it calls into question the veracity of the entire list. It belongs on the list, yes, but SO MUCH further down. An absolute, credibility-wrecking flub. Boo, @variety.com! Boo! variety.com/lists/best-c...

Name one.

Finland uses “Russia-gauge” rails. They are going to move to European compatible rail gauge for their own resilience. This is what we should be thinking about for moving to open social away from American platforms: it should come with significant spending commitments & is absolutely necessary.

Oh, man. One of cinema's most reliable weirdos, and I mean that in a highly complimentary fashion. RIP. variety.com/2025/film/ne...

I had the privilege of going to the oldest continually operating pharmacy in Europe! I also checked off an unexpected Bucket List when I got to see a perfectly preserved plague mask! These are so rare and I’m still dancing from the emotional high of seeing this critical part of world history!

It’s this simple. 👇

Elizabeth Warren on Colbert's show: "We don't think one corporation or one man named David Ellison should be able to buy up all the shows and buy up all the sports and buy up all the news and decide who watches what and I'm gonna stay in that fight."

ICE agents in Queens, New York break down a bedroom door and point guns at a mother & her four US citizen children They dragged the mother out by her hair while yelling at the kids to “put your hands up, stupid!” This is tyranny These kids are traumatized It was warrantless and no ID was shown.

But but but it’s not true

CNN: What if there are more names connected to the Democratic Party that come out in the files? CHRIS MURPHY: So what?

In related news, the claim ‘the Tooth Fairy does not actually take lost baby teeth from under pillows’ is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that magical beings are secretly thieving teeth in the dead of night…” www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

I posted Trump’s unhinged screed announcing he’s signed the Epstein files but it contains so many lies that I deleted my post and will just tell you that Trump announced on social media he has signed the Epstein files

Personalized gold bars from the Swiss. Used jumbo jet from Qatar. Huge amounts of $$$ from crypto. The amount of corruption in the White House is at unconscionable levels. We need some real serious ethics across the federal government.

Coinbase donated to Trump's $300 million White House ballroom project as an appeal to the administration, Emilie Choi, the cryptocurrency exchange's president and COO, said at Axios' BFD event today.

This is funny. Gov. Greg Abbott delayed in scheduling the #TX18 special—which is taking place under the old lines—and almost certainly did so to keep a Dem seat vacant. The court cites that still-ongoing special as proof that reverting to the old lines would not be disruptive. Oops!

Breaking: An Epstein survivor just silenced press conference attendees when she delivered the following remarks: “Today we stand in a moment that will decide whether our government belongs to the American people, or to those who prey on them.”

LMAO -- Ted Cruz is on Fox News talking about running for president in 2028

Told you she was (and is) the most important SF/F writer of our generation

I’m still struggling with the fact that ICE “brown shirts” went to a taco shop and thought they would get served. F that!

Gotta love how Jon Karl and ABC News had this graphic ready to go *the very moment* that Hassett rolled out his Walmart anecdote.

The Powerball lottery continued climbing after a lucky winner in Georgia won the Mega Millions jackpot valued at $980 million on Friday.

My New Pet Project To Distract Me From The Really Stupid Timeline We Find Ourselves Living In: I'm reading the original novels that were the source material for a few of my favorite movies. And how are all of YOU coping these days....? 🤯

Massie: "The president has been saying this is a hoax. Well, he's just now decided to investigate a hoax, if it's a hoax. And I have another concern about these investigations he's announced. If they have ongoing investigations, those documents can't be released. So this might be a big smokescreen."

The fact that Megyn Kelly minimized raping 15 year olds and wasn't immediately canceled from every platform, including @siriusxmprog.bsky.social and YouTube, tells you EVERYTHING that is wrong with right wing media and this country in general.
