Why Small Business Owners Should Adopt a Back to School Mindset at All Times

Less than a week after it was taken off the air under pressure from the Trump administration, "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" will return to late night on Tuesday, ABC parent company Disney confirmed.

At the end of each day I think things couldn’t possibly get worse because I’m an optimist. But Trump always proves me wrong. bsky.app/profile/atru...

As someone who, in middle age, increasingly finds myself reaching for a word that I can't quite remember, I understand why at 79 he could't quite come up with "rubella" but also maybe don't just riff on vaccine schedules on live TV based off vibes?

This autism press conference is an insult to science and medicine. It is a bunch of shameless male quacks shoveling bullshit at pregnant women, families and people with autism. This is a historic embarrassment for America and it is wildly dangerous.

SCHUMER: “I hope and pray Trump will sit down with us.” BASH: “And if he doesn’t Dems will vote no?” @schumer.senate.gov : *suddenly seems to lose his hearing* He “hopes and prays”, y’all. 🤔 Hard to watch.

Consider the possibility that the main reason for the Trump regime's persecution of immigrants isn't to exploit bigotry to attract votes – it's to expand ICE's spending and thus create more opportunities for bribery in government contracts.

He allegedly accepted the money ***in cash*** "On Sept. 20, 2024, with hidden cameras recording the scene at a meeting spot in Texas, Homan accepted $50,000 in bills, according to an internal summary of the case and sources."

“Tom Homan, who was later named Trump’s border czar, was recorded in September 2024 accepting a bag with $50,000 in cash in an undercover F.B.I. investigation, according to people familiar with the case, which was later shut down by Trump officials.” www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/u...

The Disney & ABC boycott is WORKING 🔥 Let’s keep going! We the PEOPLE have the power. Sinclair, the broadcasting company that owns hundreds of ABC affiliate stations, has BACKED OUT of airing a remembrance of Charlie Kirk, posting a YouTube link instead. #BoycottDisneyABC #Sinclair #JimmyKimmel

Seem clear it was private but whenever he's caught he doubles down. He's ordering prosecutions of his enemies and also, in a stream of consciousness rant, taking credit for firing the US Atty and then once again demands prosecutions. This is obviously how he talks to Bondi and probably everyone.

Starring: Emil Bove, then at the DOJ and now a lifelong federal judge, who the article says pushed DOJ to be skeptical of the investigation

NYT: “Tom Homan, who was later named President Trump’s border czar, was recorded in Sept 2024 accepting a bag with $50,000 in cash in an undercover F.B.I. investigation, according to people familiar with the case, which was later shut down by Trump admin.” www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/u...

More than that. "The FBI ***recorded*** Tom Homan taking the money "after indicating he could help the agents — who were posing as business executives — win government contracts in a second Trump administration."

This is also the person driving Trump's efforts to censor art (i.e. erase Black and trans people) and rewrite American history in Smithsonian museums.

“We’re fine with corruption if comes with terrorizing brown people.” Really sums up the MAGA punditocracy.

Q: "Are you criticizing Pam Bondi for not going after your political adversaries?" Trump: "No. I just want people to act. They have to act. And we want to act fast...If they are guilty or if they should be charged, they should be charged. And we have to do it now."

Dear gestapo trash:

Remember the good old days when Bill Clinton bumping into AG Lynch for a few minutes at an airport was unacceptable? I don't think Pam Bondi is long for her job.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

This post has now been deleted. Suggesting it really was a DM to Bondi, violating presidential Records Act, and basically all national security protocols. But who cares. All the laws are for trampling now.

Patel has given a master class in how NOT to lead an investigation with announcement of suspect later released and public disclosure of evidence. www.npr.org/2025/09/16/g...

The NYT has a policy of not settling and if the admin had done this more quietly and slowly they could pick off individual publications and voices over time and a lot of people wouldn’t notice until it was too late.

Re: Trump’s NYT lawsuit and the admin threatening censorship of other publications and voices - I think it’s probably good that Trump, Vance, Bondi et al are doing this all at once and so blatantly bc it forces the issue in the courts.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. appears to be taking a victory lap, citing the CDC’s response to the Texas measles outbreak as evidence. But his version of events is misleading, Tom Bartlett writes:

Lord, won't you buy me a {M̶e̶r̶c̶e̶d̶e̶s̶-̶B̶e̶n̶z̶} Canadian passport

Ossoff on RFK Jr: "Absolutely he should resign. And he never should've been confirmed to begin with... in any normal Senate, he never would've gotten so much as a hearing. This is someone who throughout his public life has embraced just about every piece of quackery & pseudoscience he's come across"

About this Florida vaccine story: When they were little - 1 yr and 3 1/2 - my two older boys, who’d had all their shots, got whooping cough. We asked their pediatrician what would’ve happened if they hadn’t been vaccinated. “Oh, they’d have died.”

Best part of the Harvard ruling from today is when the judge repeatedly quotes Trump boasting over and over again that what he’s doing is exactly retaliation

Same with that Third Way bullshit
