“The fight for fish, family, freedom is clearly a fight worth having…” -Mary Peltola (D), Senate Candidate, Alaska

I bought a Kindle copy of the two-volume Mueller report. Read the whole thing, highlighted passages, attached notes, rebuttals to online trolls. But I also wished that the man who made his bed everyday in Vietnam had been less by-the-book this time. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/21/u...

I was curious about the new reporter introduced on CBS News, Matt Gutman. He was suspended from ABC News - 2020, incorrectly reporting that all four of Kobe Bryant's children had died in the crash - 2021, violating Disney COVID-19 approval policies before visiting an LA hospital

A CBS News staffer told me this after Tony Dokoupil kicked off his CBS Evening News tenure tonight with a lengthy Pete Hegseth interview: "If this is what Bari and Tony’s CBS Evening News is going to look like, then the we may as well just call ourselves Trump Administration State TV. Pathetic."

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @mluckovichajc)

Reporting on the ICE raid on Kauai. This was in my neighborhood. Of course, the pretext of Tren de Aragua, which the article parrots the administration by calling it a “terrorist organization”. kauainownews.com/2025/11/05/k...

ICE raid down the road nearby. Drove by while they were still there. www.hawaiinewsnow.com/2025/11/06/i...

ICE on Kauai. Looks like targeted raids since they can’t profile, which would result in almost the whole island.

From Hawaii. The blood moon eclipse really is red.

If members of Congress—like Rep. Grothman —are this clueless about what the man who is dismantling our government is saying and promising, they don’t deserve to keep their jobs! This woman is in his face, begging him to wake TF up—and he just walks off. Pathetic.
