An underappreciated aspect of Democratic leaders' 'age problem' is the shame of aging in a society that equates worth with productivity. That shame is shaping who stays, who steps aside, and who steps up, and it’s already altering the political landscape ahead of 2026.

Oh, Tish James case dismissed too. Now Miss Hannigan has to start her orphanage. www.cnn.com/2025/11/24/p...

Ian Miles Cheong: Everyone must go back to the country where they are born. Please don't tell people I'm living in Malaysia, where I was born, but spend my entire life complaining about America. Ian Miles Cheong: *has been secretly living in Dubai this whole time*

You absolutely have the constitutional right to record ICE, Border Patrol, or any law enforcement officer in public, and with everything happening in Charlotte right now, people need to understand that clearly.

Correct Answer

This is the video that enraged Trump so much that he called for these Democratic lawmakers to be hanged. They served our country, and now the President wants them dead because they said something he didn't like. We cannot become numb to these disgusting calls for political violence.

arstechnica.com/science/2016... You need to read this article. There was a test in the 40s to determine the "personality type" of those that fall prey to authoritarianism. It still holds.

🤮 I doubt anything trump & russia cook up can end 🇷🇺's war of aggression & genocide in 🇺🇦. They do not understand that 🇷🇺 needs to be held accountable= 1. unconditional surrender by 🇷🇺 2.🇷🇺 leaves all of 🇺🇦 3.🇷🇺 returns kidnapped 🇺🇦 people 4.🇷🇺 pays reparations & to rebuild 🇺🇦 5.🇷🇺's responsible go to ICC

The dog ate my jobless and inflation homework!

As President Trump's call for National Guard deployments rings out across the U.S., a small contingent of Ohio guard members is quietly expressing concern in an encrypted group chat. n.pr/3JS8YPS

Wow!

/2 1. Real human beings will suffer from even a brief stay. 2. The government's position is transparently dishonest and in bad faith. 3. The Supreme Court has lost any benefit of the doubt. They have lost the mandate of the heaven that is the rule of law.

/3 I think this is likely strategy by Justice Jackson -- she likely believes this route (rather than the stay being considered by the whole court) results in the shortest stay. But few will listen to that because of reasons 1-3, and I can't really fault them.

My kids have measles and my SNAP benefits were cut. But at least those cashiers at Walmart aren’t writing “they/them” on their name tags anymore.

Hey Democrats: Schumer wouldn't even endorse Mamdani or say who he voted for. Maybe, just maybe, stop letting him lead the Senate Dems?

This article as someone with a christian upbringing is amazing. It's basically going down the end times prophecies one by one and pointing out Trump fills every single one. www.benjaminlcorey.com/could-americ...

@kenwhite.bsky.social How come people aren't freaking the fuck out about the proto-proscription list published? Zero pushback means they will take it further. www.whitehouse.gov/articles/202...

Democrats should demand any spending resolution also have a rider to release the Epstein files.

How long before Trump deploys the National Guard to Utah?

Dear @awscloud.bsky.social what is the point of requiring me to log in to the aws console with the user and pass, then again with the passkey?

In the shower I had a brain zap. Post Bruen, we're left in basically right and definitions of words locked to c 1791.

you’re so close

No lies told here.

The hell you can, fuckface

Much of the regulations at USDA have been removed; consume anything at your own risk.

@elienyc.bsky.social Wtf? I had no idea Alito was made a foreign noble. How is he not DQd? How did he not get impeached even once since then? Is our representatives completely useless?

@joncooper-us.bsky.social Ran the numbers. Alligator Alcatraz hits dangerous temps daily in July & Aug. Used Miami Int’l +3°F for inland swamp heat—high humidity, no wind. At 80°F WB, even unknown health issues can trigger sudden death.

It's called [moving hands around] Stagflation. Ok? When I heard that I said wow, what a word. You have stag and flation and they're coming together like you've never seen. But we'll be eating beautiful toothpaste sandwiches and our teeth will be stronger than perhaps ever before

A use for AI. My fat black blob of a cat figured out that he just needs to go to his skinny brothers feeder and just hold it open when he walks away and then he can eat all of his food. The solution: AI that shoots the fat black blob whenever it gets too close with a water hose.

This will have to count as my Supreme Court term review. I make that point that there's no point in reviewing what the Supreme Court has done because the rule of law is dead in this country anyway. My latest in @thenation.com

NC Const. A1S2-3: the people have the sole and exclusive power to alter/abolish the Constitution. A1S36: that power can’t be impaired. A2 only governs the legislature. Direct democracy isn’t barred. Why are we letting the GA gatekeep amendments?

@marcelias.bsky.social I’ve been digging into the NC Constitution and found language that might directly enable the people (not the legislature) to amend it. Do you know anyone who could sanity-check this?

#Citi customer: if you have authorized users, go check your records. Citi has scrubbed all historical data! You can no longer see which cardholder made which transaction. This is a massive violation. Support can’t fix it, but you can file a CFPB complaint for TILA / Reg Z / destruction of records.

Trump: ‘We Could Argue All Day About Who Is Or Isn’t A Child Rapist’

Anyone else ever try to open a jar so hard your skin tears? My ink well got stuck, ice and near boiling water didn’t work. Soaking upside down in water didn’t. Trying to force it through brute force didn’t. Probably out 25ml of ink and a really nice jar.

Years ago, I named a certain type of smirk "white man's war face" because the term seemed kitschy and I am Gen X and we Gen Xers live for that shit. I now call that little smile an "einsatzgruppen," named for the Nazi death squads that executed unarmed civilians. #ICE #Authors

I love Mr Mystal. He is magical with words. (Link referenced in screenshot www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202... )

How come no one has put signs over the Alligator Alcatraz signs to make it say Alligator Auschwitz?

@kenwhite.bsky.social Serious question: Why don’t pro-democracy circuit or appellate judges just ignore SCOTUS? They have equal Article III power, and SCOTUS can’t enforce anything without taking cert. Let them try to uphold their lawless rulings every time.
