So James Comey has been indicted for testifying, in essence, that he didn't authorize Andrew McCabe to be an anonymous media source about the Hillary Clinton email investigation—which McCabe disputes. But a DOJ IG report examined all the circumstantial evidence and concluded McCabe was lying.

thune is offering a handshake deal that republicans *might* discuss ACA subsidies in the *next* round, that’s a deal that isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on, thune has reneged on previous deals, he doesn’t have any credibility to offer one now

look it's OBVIOUS that punitive tariffs on trading partners result in MORE BUYING of US products by those partners. It's just basic economics. Farmers' livelihoods will IMPROVE as they ONSHORE their wheat fields. Everyone gets three cows. two in urban areas.

Good news for those just barely scraping by: thanks to Trump’s catastrophic spending bill, you can write off the entire purchase of a racehorse in a single year. You can’t afford food or childcare or rent or healthcare, but … www.cnbc.com/2025/09/25/r...

Study of 2.5M children *assessing siblings* "Acetaminophen use during pregnancy was not associated with children’s risk of autism, ADHD, or intellectual disability in sibling control analyses. This suggests that associations observed in other models may have been attributable to confounding."

thank you @scalzi.com for an immensely entertaining event Sunday at the Denver Tattered Cover. I have a guess about where the very engaging Chapter 1 of your in-progress novel is leading, but we'll All Just Have To Wait To Read It.

Since this is going to be headline news tomorrow… The highest quality research has shown Tylenol use in pregnancy is NOT at all associated with autism risk. To suggest otherwise is to be an amateur that cherry-picks data points from decades ago. What we discussed 2 weeks ago remains true today ⬇️

"why is housing so expensive?" I had to buy some shingles last week. Previous time I bought they were $15/bundle. Now, $50 (Home Depot both times.) Completely unclear why this product has gone up so much - local US production, oil prices stable.

I helped run the Dem booth at our (small rural red) county fair, just after the 4th of July. Our booth had a copy of the Declaration of Independence to sign. The Republican booth had a Joe Biden punching bag and was raffling off an assault-style weapon. bUt BOtH pARTieS aRE tHe SAmE!!
