There is virtually NO reason to believe this and several pieces of evidence to suggest she was trying to achieve the opposite. Had she denied the admin stay on Friday night, the full court almost certainly would have overruled her. She set tight deadlines for the First Circuit and SCOTUS then.

Listen to this BS from Duffy. (Whose aviation-world experience = zero.) I know 1000 times as many controllers as he's ever met. OK, maybe only 100 times as many. This is offensive beyond belief.

Seems clear that Pulte 1) broke the law while going on fishing expeditions for baseless mortgage fraud claims 2) immediately removed everyone who tried to investigate that wrong-doing.

He and Trump wanted them to come to work during a shutdown when they're sick, exhausted, worried about their childcare, overwhelmed and broke. What could go wrong? It's not as if they have a stressful job or anything.

Wow, a Long Island jury awarded $112 Million to 674 immigrants who were unlawfully held by county police so they could be handed over to ICE

Groceries are cheaper if you do it the right way. First go to the oval office and give the president a fake award and tell him he's very strong and handsome. He will then call the grocery store and threaten them until they give you a discount. It's called the free market

Sincere question: Do Democrats not understand how the ACA works? Do they not understand they are bankrupting people Maybe the GOP was never going to fully cave on extending the tax credits but the “deal” the Dems settled for is worthless to most ACA users!

"The Pentagon has begun sending conventional ground forces to Panama to train in the jungle there, returning U.S. soldiers & Marines to a three-week course once called the "Green Hell" because of its similarities to Vietnam." Nothing says just winnable war like "cuz of its similarities to Vietnam"

First they came for reproductive rights. Then they came for vaccines. Now they’re coming for mental health. There is zero evidence SSRIs cause mass violence. You know what does? Guns — and the fact that anyone can access weapons that kill hundreds in seconds. #GunReformNow

The identity of Sarah Kendzior, researcher on authoritarian states, and Sarah Kendzior's content discussing authoritarian states are...not really easy to separate. So I'm struggling to see this as a response.

Presumably a mistaken suspension of a journalist who is a very anodyne poster over here, @aaron.bsky.team and co. What's the best way to reach the team who can look into it?

The funniest part is that Trump Tower’s retail space is at 0% occupancy. It has literally never had a tenant. blockclubchicago.org/2025/08/11/w...

Unlike you, I can read and that’s why I know what the constitution says.

One of many costs to US murder (sorry, no better word for it) in Caribbean: "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."

No one will ever sum up Bari Weiss's career more succinctly than "what's the point of standards"

I think, of all the slides in this report, this is the most important -- it's really worth examining closely. This illustrates why the triumph of electrotechnical is inevitable.

California likes to think of itself as a nation — and this week, it’s acting like one. Gov. Gavin Newsom, top state officials and legislators are leading a delegation to the United Nations’ 30th Conference of Parties this week in Belém. bit.ly/3LVPo5N 📸 Wagner Meier

Yes people can sometimes confuse concepts when they use the same measurement unit (degrees of temperature for example). For example 3 degrees of warming doesn’t sound bad but if a human body’s temperature increases by 3 degrees then the human will die instantly. Planets are similar.

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...

The plight of Dreamers used to be emblematic of the obvious failures of our immigration system. Now, they’ve become targets— "betrayed by the only country [they have] ever called home.”

Nothing illustrates the arseholery of the IOC and the British Press more than the use of the image of a not-Trans woman to illustrate a story about trans women being banned (because there are no current trans women competing at this level)

On this Veterans Day, more than any before, let us remember the valiant service of Black, Hispanic, Navajo, Japanese and other non-white Americans who fought bravely for the ideals of a country that failed to live up to them, and whose legacy a racist GOP is desperately trying to erase.

Republicans constantly attack their Congressional leadership, and they remove leaders who fail to achieve the objectives desired by the base. This 'infighting' hasn't been a 'distraction' or 'weakness' for them, it has produced victory after victory, including control of all three branches.

Think about buying a car, a fun, stress-free negotiating process that everybody loves. Now imagine that if you don’t buy a car you die and if you buy the wrong car you also die

:: getting burned in effigy by an angry mob :: okay wow, so your anger is very valid and I want to start by acknowledging that

This is my favorite part of this cycle we've been repeating for my entire adult life: when they sit backwards on the chair for some real talk and explain that you're a fucking peasant who doesn't understand how things work.

I have to hand it to them, it's an incredible bit to publicly lose a game of chicken, admit that's what happened, and then spend the next day lecturing everyone about courage and tenacity

a new genre of photo in the last year is federal agents working for ICE pointing guns directly at photographers

I can't stress this enough as a super volunteer for the Democratic Party and Democratic candidates. This should prompt you to get MORE involved, not less. Show up and use the existing infrastructure to make it work for all of us. In my neck of the woods, we've seen a ton of local victories this way.

one time I pointed out that elon musk followed no women on twitter and he immediately followed caity weaver

“Rather than taking over the Democratic Party the same way the right took over the Republican Party, we should take the easier route and just start up a new party ourselves!” I’m about to fill my pockets with stones and walk into the sea.

BREAKING: We won! Today the 3rd Circuit Court ordered the @post-gazette.com to restore our contract it illegally tore up 5 years ago. That’s our health care, PTO, right to a 40-hr. work week, short-term disability and so much more we’ve struck for 3+ years. pghguild.com/2025/11/10/p...

Pretty fitting that Trump's "electors" receive pardons that are just as fake as they are.

joyce carol oates and menswear guy should tape a special together

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work." The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting. And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it. Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

history will ultimately decide this but i think joyce carol oates might have just landed the most devastating burn in human history. like the death star trench run of posting

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

THEY PEPPER SPRAYED A BABY THEY PEPPER SPRAYED A BABY Please read this entire excellent piece by Caroline, which points out that a judge ordered the Feds (again) to stop doing **this exact kind of thing** and they are still continuing to do it all over Chicago

Tim Kaine is on MSNBC accusing Katy Tur of "overdramatizing" the way he and some other Democrats caved. "This is by far a minor-league issue within the Democratic Party," Kaine said. He's completely out of touch, or just lying.

If Durbin weren't retiring, he would be primaried, and he would lose.

The Senate Dems’ actions are so demoralizing that even @pkrugman.bsky.social has (temporarily) thrown his hands up. From his newsletter today: No Post Today Temporarily shut down by Team Cave #teamcave Never forget.

“I swore an oath to the Constitution, not a person," she says. "I just really, really implore my peers and everybody outside looking in, to just think about that. Really think about that, and think about what that means. And if there are questions, ask them. Keep talking."

You can tell that Senate Democrats know they made an awesome deal because they sprang it on us on a Sunday afternoon and then raced it through that same night.
