I don’t say things like this about judges often, but if you’re criticizing KBJ on appellate procedure, you better have some kind of qualifications beyond just being a poster
If you can’t count to five, please don’t jump into my replies telling me how you could have handled this better than Justice Jackson.

This right here.
Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

This is not a deal — it's an empty promise.

Trump and his Republican Congress are making healthcare more expensive for the middle class and ending it for working families.

Time for Democrats to stand tall for affordable healthcare. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...
Senate reaches deal on ending the shutdown

I called my senators before I left the house but now I can’t call Schumer - someone get on the phone for me.
So, listen, call Schumer’s office no matter where you live, no matter if you’re registered to vote. Leave a voicemail that says if Senate Dems cave without an ACA premiums fix, you will never vote for or donate to another Senate Democrat as long as he is Leader
Call them:

Schumer (NY)
202 224-6542

Booker (NJ)
202 224-3224

King (ME)
202 224-5344

Hassan (NH)
202 224-3324

Durbin (IL)
202 224-2152

Ossoff (GA)
202 224-3521

Shaheen (NH)
202 224-2841

Gillibrand (NY)
202 224-4451

Masto (NV)
202 224-3542

Warner (VA)

Could someone else's imaginary friends please kidnap Chuck's imaginary friends the Bailey's and hold them hostage so Chuck can give in to the pretend people's pretend kidnappers and have a spine with the shutdown.
Y’all need to leave Chuck Schumer alone, he checked in with Joe and Eileen Bailey and they wanted a deal.

So for ~reasons~ I want to point out that although graduate students at the Paleontological Research Institution receive degrees through Cornell,

PRI/THE MUSEUM OF THE EARTH ARE NOT A PART OF CORNELL

Donating to PRI does not support Cornell, PRI hasnt ever been given monetary help from Cornell

Throwing away all your political capital after a historic off year election for a 1 year continuation of ACA funding is absolutely pathetic.
SCHUMER is on the floor now making this offer to end the shutdown:

Clean CR
Bipartisan "minibus" of approps bills
1-year ACA funding extension
Bipartisan cmte to negotiate on health care

"This is a reasonable offer that reopens the government, deals with health care affordability."

I say this as someone who had a great experience with Cornell: they must become a pariah for it. I know the faculty didn’t choose this but it has to cost admin in reputation & money. Every uni that falls makes the next admin feel like it is ok & normal.

They are anathema to any good in academia now
BREAKING: Cornell caved.

Here is the settlement agreement, signed today by the university's president, Michael Kotlikoff: statements.cornell.edu/2025/documen...

The fascists are not inevitable. They're not unstoppable. They're not all powerful. They want you to think that, but millions turned out last month to call their bluff. And millions turned out today to claim our power. We will win.

More people really need to understand/reckon with the fact that everyone working for and loyal to this administration is a mask off fascist, firmly believes any opposition to them is a "threat," and that it's their right and duty to suppress that opposition.
Overnight court filings seem to be giving us a peek at what U.S. Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino said in his deposition so far (it apparently continues today):

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Yeah, that’s not a thing.
Attorney General Pam Bondi says she has retroactively appointed former Trump attorney Lindsey Halligan as a "special attorney" for DOJ and has "ratified" all of her actions to date, including her presentations to the grand juries that indicted Trump's foes.
