Today, the Boston Herald targets multiple vulnerable people, not one of whom is guilty of any wrongdoing. Each of the Herald’s targets, whomever they are, are trying to get by in life without being harassed by people, likely some of whom are inspired by the Herald’s disgraceful lead.

Texas cannot use a new congressional map drawn by Republicans in hopes of securing the party additional U.S. House seats, a panel of three federal judges ruled. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton vowed to appeal the decision to the Supreme Court. on.nbcboston.com/NTuLPIR

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk? But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession. But that's just me

If you have plans to escape the cold this winter, now is the time to take a look at your passport. With routine processing times of 4-6 weeks and a suggestion to allow an additional 2 weeks on both ends for mailing, time is running out for routine processing before the February school break.

US citizen Maria Greeley, a Latina who was adopted, was walking home from work downtown when masked agents zip tied her. They said she “doesn’t look like a Greeley.” This is how the government treats people under current deportation policies. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/15/l...

Farm workers in King City are harvesting lettuce going as fast as possible so they can finish before the rain begins. A strong rain could physically damage the plants and also increase food safety risks. To harvest rapidly, workers are bending down and barely stand up. #WeFeedYou

On Saturday, goons broke a window of Willy Aceituno’s pickup truck outside the Pollo Campero restaurant in Charlotte. Aceituno, a U.S. citizen for approximately six years, reported the incident.

How about instead of selling "bearista" cups, Starbucks bargains a fair contract with its unionized baristas? No contract. No coffee. Don't cross the picket line. Solidarity with @sbworkersunited.org ✊

The Republican president is a pedophile who has doubled my healthcare costs and let scores of violent criminals out of jail. But a Democratic mayor-elect wants to make busses free in a city I don't live in. I have never felt more politically homeless.

The British press doesn’t mince words. 🇬🇧

A convicted felon who had also been found liable for sexual assault and committed additional crimes in plain sight was close with a notorious child sex trafficker and likely participated in some of those crimes too got elected with much of that known and spent his presidency railing against “crime.”

LOS ANGELES: Spotify is doubling down on its decision to help recruit for ICE, so we're turning up the volume on our campaign to Cancel Spotify until they stop running ICE ads. Join the protest at Spotify HQ in the LA Arts District today and tomorrow at 12p PT: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

Spotify is running ads to help ICE recruit more agents to infringe our rights and terrorize our communities. We’re calling on users to stop paying for or using the app until Spotify stops streaming fascism: indivisible.org/cancel-spoti...

Are you paying attention? MAGA Republicans are stealing from you! The vote to reopen the government includes a multi-million dollar payoff a QUID PRO QUO to 8 senator conspirators who colluded with Trump during the January 6th insurrection.

Trump said he would release the Epstein files—until he realized he was in them. We are watching a cover-up in real time. There needs to be accountability. The victims deserve justice.

So where was all this information last year when it could have preserved our democracy? @manmet80.bsky.social #epstein #mapoli www.bostonglobe.com/2025/11/12/n...

Absolutely damning. Release the files. Nobody is above the law.

If you have even a second to spare today, call these Senate Dems and demand that they don’t cave! (Maybe threaten to support their next primary opponent if they cave 👀) bsky.app/profile/marc...

Do not cave! @warren.senate.gov @elizabeth-warren.bsky.social @markey.senate.gov @edmarkey.bsky.social

DO NOT CAVE!

@schumer.senate.gov and the rest of the Dem senate cowards who back this effort.

Hey Chuck, don’t fucking cave.

Folks this is not a candid shot of the man at 11PM on a weekend, this is what he was doing while sitting in the middle of an internationally broadcast major press conference in the Oval Office He is cooked, get him out of there ASAP—before we find ourselves in the midst of a second Great Depression

yesterday, I saw a long food line just outside of Boston. it was a devastating sight, and another reminder that even in one of the richest cities of one of the richest states, we are not insulated from the depraved, regressive policies of this regime. if you can, consider donating to www.gbfb.org

If we had the same cheap, instant access to rooftop solar systems, not only could we power the homes of 18.2 million families, but we could also save $1.2 trillion in the process 💸 🔗 Read the full Permit Power report here: permitpower.org/resources/as...

🤯 This new @permitpower.bsky.social report reveals that if we cut down on red tape for solar installations, we could unlock solar power for almost 20 MILLION families across the U.S. 🇺🇸 If it’s already working in countries like Australia & Germany, why can’t it work here? 👇🧵

Trump costing all of us middle and poor class more, while he pays zero taxes.

THIS is all Republicans care about right now - protecting pedofiles in the Epstein files. It has been SIX WEEKS since Adelita Grijalva won her congressional election and she has STILL not been sworn in. Johnson is delaying until Van Epps, if he wins in the TN special election, can cancel her vote.

Thank you, New York City. Together we made history. Now let’s get to work. transition2025.com

Now you know why Trump and the GOP are so focused on undermining free and free elections in 2026. Please, stay informed and take action. There is no better way to start than by signing up for Democracy Docket. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Our latest report on redistricting finds that independent commissions produce maps that result in higher voter turnout than those drawn by courts, legislatures, and legislature-appointed commissions. bit.ly/3WrW7qo

Jeffries: "The Trump administration and Mike Johnson are running a pedophile protection program. That's the reason they refuse to swear in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva."

SC Rep Nancy Mace reportedly told airport police this is no way to treat a “fucking US representative,” at a US airport Friday. She also called TSA “fucking incompetent,” even though she showed up late and not as prearranged w/ police. www.wired.com/story/nancy-... #demsabroad #GovernmentShutdown 🧵

When I read the full transcript of the interview, I realized there had been no pushback, no corrections, no challenging follow-ups. The entire interview had been an open-ended opportunity for Trump to tell rambling lies, only to have them cleaned up into a more polished product.

Donald Trump endorsing Andrew Cuomo is like Jeffrey Epstein endorsing Harvey Weinstein.
