GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered? GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now THOMPSON: What does that mean?

“To put it frankly, old white people have a lot of time, and they’re really angry,” Stauss said. “Having somebody that looks like your grandmother out there, shouting ‘shame’ or out there blowing her whistle, is really important.”

Somehow, even with deadlines & such, it is ~100% certain this is not how the Paper of Record would cover the TN-7 election result if it were the reverse in a D+22 district 🧐🤔

Our new research shows many of The Home Depot’s top suppliers are still using PVC in their packaging. Seriously?! #PVC doesn’t make our homes better; it threatens our health, safety, and the environment. 🌎 The Home Depot can and must do more to phase it out of all packaging on store shelves.

Oh hello North Korea. These people do know it’s a week before a major fall travel holiday and that the entire fashion industry is putting out sleepwear as aviation wear this year, right? Guess they have strong feelings about how we plebes look. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/21/t...

They only like immigrants they can profit from. Everything is about enriching themselves and their family and friends. All the culture war issues are to keep us distracted and divided as the oligarchy sucks up more and more and more money.

Sadly, Island Press has been bought. But you can find lots of good deals on their going away sale.

Never ever heat food in plastic. That includes coffee making (cough, pods, cough). Not only does the break up of plastic into ever-tinier particles that can get into our bodies happen more at high temps, but also what about all those chemicals used to make plastics? time.com/7331064/coff...

PFAS-laden sewage sludge spread on superfund site to encourage plant growth. Sewage sludge is still spread on farmland across the US, despite our knowledge that most of it is contaminated w/ PFAS. I can't stress enough that we need to be turning off these toxic taps. www.eenews.net/articles/epa...

The USDA has funding set aside to keep food assistance programs running during emergencies. Trump just won’t release it. 440,000 Minnesotans - and millions more Americans - will pay the price.
