Really wish I had gotten a better shot of this but holding a phone that says “who else was just ‘following orders’?” up to a riot cop is hard as hell

Pope Leo's least favorite movie: "Eight Men Out"

Written by first-time NYT contributor, Shuck Chumer

Have you called your reps yet? Time to get Schumer and Durbin out of leadership.

Then primary them.

Name them.

“The United Kingdom is no longer sharing intelligence with the US about suspected drug trafficking vessels in the Caribbean because it does not want to be complicit in US military strikes and believes the attacks are illegal, sources familiar with the matter told CNN.” www.cnn.com/2025/11/11/p...

Will Bunch nails what I have been trying to say about the Dems folding. It's not just the fight, but the spotlight on the fight, a light that just went out...

Great stuff

Gift article "The Angus Kings, John Fettermans, Jeanne Shaheens, and Chuck Schumers will be remembered by the history books as craven appeasers, and nothing more. They do not deserve one moment of peace until good people can force them off a platform they do not deserve." share.inquirer.com/k64tKZ

Vichy Dems could learn a lot from the good everyday folks in Chicago.

I’ve said it a million times, the courage and virtue needed to stand up and say “no, this is wrong” is found all but exclusively among ordinary people like us. It’s far from ideal, but it might be enough.

“The Angus Kings, John Fettermans, Jeanne Shaheens, and Chuck Schumers will be remembered by the history books as craven appeasers, and nothing more. They do not deserve one moment of peace until good people can force them off a platform they do not deserve.” Amen.

In Chicago, the courage of good, everyday folks getting in the face of ICE/BP and fighting back is restoring my faith in America In DC, the cowardice of Senate Democrats has undermined it, again America needs a government as good as its people. My new column www.inquirer.com/columnists/a...

Who did it better @nydailynews.com or @nytimes.com ? NYT editors are entrusted by their readers to prioritize what’s important. Their editorial decisions such as layout of the #FrontPage contribute to public memory. Democracywashing the multifaceted coup attempt and subversion of 2020 election👇

I saw a report that Greg Bovino and his wretched goon squad may be leaving Chicago for their next stop on their Destroy America tour. I'm thinking Boston or San Francisco or Mamdani's NY, maybe Portland although the immigrant community is smaller there. Or Memphis. Philly a dark-horse contender.

This Washpost oped is every bit as awesome as its headline

Haverford College in Philly's suburbs is a Quaker-founded bastion of progressive thought, home to the brilliant 1960s-70s radical prof Bill Davidon, among others Now it's produced Howard Lutnick and Palantir's Alex Karp. So much for "liberal indoctrination" www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/o...

If you think Trump is bad now, wait until 2026 Great Depression II Trump

Still desperate for a good question. I probably confused everyone -- the mainbar of the newsletter is largely about the Democrats on Capitol Hill (and the history lesson is Dick Cheney) so maybe something else Please

Conor Lamb would, it turns out, be a huge upgrade over turncoat Fetterman, but the Pennsylvanian I'd love to see in the Senate is Rep. Summer Lee. No, I have no idea if she's interested in running in 2028

Happy Tuesday to Birds fans and everyone else, which means it's time yet again for the Will Bunch Newsletter and the Ask Me Anything feature I'm guessing there'll be some questions about the Democratic Party, but please fire away

Update: The NFL app trick from the comments WORKED!!! (Thanks Bluesky!!)

My view of the Eagles-Packers game, courtesy of the billionaire assholes at Google and Disney (via SiriusXM Radio)

I for one love to not be able to watch football because the $3.5 trillion company can’t get along with the $201 billion company

I guess this YouTube TV subscriber is going to be running the car and listening to the Eagles on the only terrestrial radio I own, so when I die of carbon monoxide poisoning, fellas it's been good to know ya

That old metaphor about the frog and the boiling water isn’t true: If you put a frog in a pot of water and slowly raise the heat, the frog will jump out before it gets boiled to death. The question now is whether American journalists are smarter than frogs. My Stop the Presses newsletter.

Trump has executed six more civilians in a small boat. The death toll now stands at 76.

The least most politically engaged people I know are texting me before 8am to say, “we won’t forget.” So I don’t know man.

What Did Sheriff-Elect Danny Ceisler’s Victory and Bucks County Democrats’ Blue Wave on Election Day Teach Us? | @cmychalejko.bsky.social speaks with Malcolm Burnley, staff writer @thephilacitizen.bsky.social, about Tuesday's Blue Wave and whether Dems can ride it to more sweeping victories in 2026.

The model of holding individual senators responsible is broken here. The retirees clearly agreed to take the fall. Which is why the nos should get no credit for voting no unless they move to oust Schumer

Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

The CPL Final is in the middle of a snowstorm in Canada, true North American soccer heritage...how could it get any better? HOW ABOUT A FREAKIN' BICYCLE KICK EQUALIZER!!!

Make D.C. and Puerto Rico states... ...and kick out New Hampshire

Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

they're taking the heat for colleagues who agree with them, but don't want to get primaried

BROOKLYN WE ARE GOING TO CHUCKS! Join us across from 9 PPW at 8:30 *tonight* Bring pots and pans, let’s make some noise about Chuck folding (again). Not another #SchumerSurrender @indivisible.org @riseandresist.bsky.social @50501newyork.bsky.social @handsoffnyc.bsky.social

I am amazed by the people who don't think this is going to further radicalize the left. Talk about not reading the room at all.

Senate Democrats are about to sell us out. Remember that when they text you for money.

Schumer will vote against the deal, but that does not matter. Either he gave the moderates nodding approval to their actions, or he is unable to keep his caucus together. This is his failure. @schumer.senate.gov should resign tonight (at least as leader) if this deal goes through.

Instead of No Kings, I hope the next protest is No Caves that gets 7 million people to surround their offices Primary every one. No $$$ for them or any committee that funds them. Boo them in airports. Make their existence hell on earth

I will not only blame the Senate Democrats who are caving. I will blame them all. They needed to keep their ranks in order. If this happens, it's the most spineless political retreat imaginable and it will harm millions upon millions of Americans. Chickenshit, self-neutering nonsense. Cowards.

Virginia’s new corporate Dem Governor says she won’t support attempts to repeal “right-to-work” in the state! www.wric.com/news/virgini...

imagine thinking he'd have a friendly crowd among middle class to upper-middle class Marylanders & northern Virginians
