Sheesh! That 1st Amendment is a stubborn bitch

Bari Weiss just sent this Christmas Eve email to the CBS News staff about "building trust," which includes her tripling down on spiking the CECOT piece "to make sure it's comprehensive and fair." One CBS staffer tells me: "She really has no idea how insulting she comes across."

"All that you touch you change. All that you change changes you. The only lasting truth is change. God is change.” Octavia Butler

We need to rethink the whole idea of letting politicians appoint boards of regents.

Very good news— an important limitation on presidential power.

I bought one day old chicks on June 26. The 3 Australorps lay in Winter, which is why I got them. The 4 Americauna hens lay blue eggs. Got the first of those today #Chickens

I’m sure it’ll be redacted before the tarp comes down 😉

But they didn’t, I say, I say they didn’t redact Trump’s name on any of the buildings he is on.

Today’s reporting from the Times — Finally showing some guts on this issue. Trump helped fuel Epstein’s rise.

More math classes please!!!!

The issue at stake in 1686 was whether the king was bound by the law. How are we back here again?

There’s a joke here somewhere

The song “Graze Realities” by Martilly, where my daughter Sarah Matilda Krulder shows off her ethereal voice and excellent guitar skills alongside beat boxer Marvelin. Hit the closed captions button. Matilda also wrote it! youtu.be/-qHK_1lBZks?...

Another “shock and awe”? Look how that turned out. Oh, yeah. I was there, USN vet.

Things are pretty bad right now. One way to make them better: run for office! A group called @leadlocally.bsky.social has put together a 6-part training for folks who want to run for office with a climate focus. Walks through all the steps. Super helpful. Don't boo, run!

Speculating here, come Friday when the Epstein files release deadline is reached, those too will be deemed a national security risk and be blocked from publication.

Let me understand you correctly, governments can care that people are being murdered?

A thought… it’s OK to make money, but not more than the Earth is old, which is roughly 4.74 billion years. If you have more than that, pay a wealth tax. Don’t like taxes, play the philanthropy card again and again.

Not all of us can afford backyard chickens which harkens back to a time when most of America was rural (pre 1920). Capitalism is killing the chicken industry, and those last two words should not be together. #Chickens

"For the first time, a majority of Americans believe billionaires are a threat to democracy. A remarkable 71 percent believe there should be a wealth tax. A majority believe there should be a cap on how much wealth a person can accumulate."

Important thread. Please read.

“Critics aren’t buying it. The progressive veterans advocacy group VoteVets called the planned cuts ‘outrageous,’ adding, ‘It is abundantly clear that Republicans and the Trump administration want to strangle the VA until it all gets privatized.’” www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

This gives credence to the right wing legal theory that voters “make mistakes” and should be overturned or ignored usually when they don’t vote right wing - which is a trend that has dominated red state legislatures for at least a decade if not more

Nate Silver is to relevant as napalm is to jungle growth

Tyson is shutting down its Lexington, Nebraska plant in January 2026. That’s 3,200 workers gone in one shot, the largest plant shutdown in company history. Blame Trump’s tariff chaos and the lowest cattle inventories in decades. Tariffs jack up costs. Supply shrinks. Plants close. Towns hollow out.
