Are those "MANY GREAT LEGAL SCHOLARS" in the room with you right now, Piggy?

Republicans said for months they had plenty of time to figure out what to do about Obamacare subsidies expiring at year’s end. During a 6-week government shutdown that ended last week, they said they’d talk about it after. Now, with five weeks to go before New Year’s, they’re scrambling and divided.

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

"She’s not trying to rebuild her reputation as a journalist—she’s building a different kind of brand entirely, one where being interesting matters more than being ethical, where attention is the only currency that still spends." The best thing I have read about her. www.mediaite.com/opinion/the-...

Perfect.

Here is Trump's full 28 point plan for Ukraine. It would destroy Ukraine as a sovereign state and leave it helpless to face a Russian attack in the future. It would also give Putin full vindication and immunity from prosecution. www.axios.com/2025/11/20/t...

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Yes, ridiculous and ignorant. Despotic regimes calling themselves "socialist" doesn't make them so - any more than naming your repressive dictatorship the "Democratic People's Republic of Korea" means they're a democracy.

Huh. #ElectionFraud really is a thing. "Smith voiced support for a Republican-backed review of the 2020 presidential election in Maricopa County that ended without producing proof to support Trump’s false claims of a stolen election...[and] had been a senior director of Turning Point Action"

Kelly: "I never expected after serving 25 years in the Navy flying combat missions over Iraq and Kuwait, flying the Space Shuttle, that now I've got to worry about my personal safety and that of my wife, Gabby Giffords, who was already nearly assassinated, because of something the president said."

I have a daughter in her first year of a MSW program. She’s often told me I’m too political. She’s triggered now. It’s not lost on her that, for the most part, these are degrees primarily pursued by women. Republicans might have regrets about this decision.

"We enter a period more dangerous than the last months of Nixon. The Trump presidency won’t end well. The question is whether harm to the nation can be contained. All honor to Slotkin, Kelly, Crow, Goodlander, Houlahan, and Deluzio for trying to limit the damage." www.thebulwark.com/p/brace-your...

In the richest city on Earth, 40% of NYC families can’t afford weekly food costs, and food prices are up 33% over the past decade. It’s time for a city government that puts affordability at the top of the agenda.

Objectively speaking, I’m not so sure religion as an experiment is working on this planet. At best, the results are decidedly mixed for those who claim faith. As often as we are the peacemakers, we have been the warmongers... johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/i-think-im...

Maybe Putin does have those Bubba photos after all.

I imagine Mitch McConnell is feeling pretty damn good right now about stacking SCOTUS and his vote to not impeach. He really did us a solid, huh?

The President has called for the arrest, trial, and execution of 6 Democratic members of Congress. This is beyond the pale. He is inciting violence against political opponents - all of whom served our country in the military and intelligence communities.

Trump is reclassifying a ton of degrees to no longer be professional degrees. This will create changes to student loan eligibility, hurt educational institutions & devastate middle-class & economically challenged students & their families. Call Congress: 202-224-3121 share.google/IdOhzeYwLhHT...

"attorneys have to parse the language" -- for WHAT? to determine if you can murder Democrats? this sanctimonious clown is the worst

If you're interested in this topic you can watch this interview I did on Substack or read this (co)author's book: The Power of Us: Harnessing Our Shared Identities to Improve Performance, Increase Cooperation, and Promote Social Harmony asharangappa.substack.com/p/class-48-h...

It's important to understand what this ad does and why it is so threatening to the Trump admin. It gets to social identity theory, which posits that we have many identities, and the one which is salient in a given context will dictate how we think/behave in a particular situation. 1/

Someone just figured out that threatening a member of Congress with murder is a prosecutable crime, even under the recent Supreme Court immunity decision.

Earlier this morning, President Trump threatened me and a group of service and veteran Members of Congress with arrest, trial, and death by hanging. Here’s my response:

Trump didn’t “criticize” Democrats. He called for them to be prosecuted for sedition. This is not politics. This is regime behavior. F*CK THAT! 😡👇 www.jackhopkinsnow.com

For what it’s worth, as a commander and officer it was my duty, moral obligation, and legal requirement to first question and then to not obey any illegal order I was given. The same is true for everyone who swear their oath. Hope that clears things up.

This is the bad place.

In the final hours of his first term in office, Trump pardoned the operative who recruited Jonathan Pollard to spy against the US for Israel. There’s no way Trump didn’t know about this meeting.

Ought to be front-page headlines.

Trump calls for the arrest of several Democratic members of Congress who are military vets who issued a video urging service members to follow their oath to the Constitution and USMJ.

A billionaire Trump pal is plotting to buy CNN and fire journalists the president hates. This is banana republic stuff. They are not even hiding their plan to turn media into a propaganda arm.

i don’t think i’ve seen GOP congressional reps vote in numbers with democrats in about thirty years.

As we said in our article today, Robert F. Kennedy MUST GO. This man is more dangerous to the health and lives of the people of the U.S. than any other cabinet member.

To recap: My law firm represented Black and Latino voters in striking down Texas' new congressional map. The dissenting opinion mentions George Soros 17 times and me and my law firm 3 times (all about how connected to Soros I allegedly am). I have never seen anything like it.

VACCINES DO NOT CAUSE AUTISM, YOU FLAMING SHITBIRDS. THE LAST TIME HHS, AS CURRENTLY OCCUPIED BY RFK JR., CONDUCTED A “COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT” OF THE CAUSES OF AUTISM THEY BLAMED TYLENOL AND THEN, BECAUSE IT WAS BULLSHIT, HAD TO WALK IT BACK.

⏰⚖️ I’m quoted here talking about James Comey’s case which is getting wilder by the minute. www.notus.org/courts/legal... #comey #halligan #grandjury

CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”

There is something seriously wrong with this man. #Trump

PLEASE SIGN! I'm a physician who has cared for agricultural workers in the San Joaquin Valley. They have been neighbors and friends who are among the hardest-working people I know. Denying them jobs is unconscionable and will slash the income of all farm workers, no matter where they were born.
