You can’t tell me that in a world as small as DC no one but Ryan Lizza knew what was going on. And none of them said shit about it because they all like Trump and wanted to help him win. Complete elite failure and betrayal.

So let me get this straight, Biden was hounded for being "old" because someone who thought fucking RFK, Jr was a good idea said so?

I just feel awful for the National Guard troopers caught up in this. They’re just standing around looking bored all the time, but they have been made into a deliberate symbol by the Trump admin and that may have made them a target for this gunman.
BREAKING: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the Trump administration would send hundreds of additional National Guard soldiers to the nation’s capital after two soldiers were shot in the city Wednesday.

DC is volatile right now. Keep at least ten feet between you and any federal agents, including Park Police. If they tell you to step back, do it. Don’t let them close the gap. Stay with a buddy and check in and out with friends. ❤️

AND supporting your local library is super important! If you actually DO want books to be available to everyone, the library *already exists* and is staffed by the people who are deep in the trenches of fighting censorship! Supporting the library is doing actual good for your community!
TAPS SCREEN

For like the zillionth time: Libraries are FREE for you, but WE still get compensated for our work!!
Just saw someone claim that authors who want to be paid for their work are "class traitors" because we "only let the wealthy" read our books, and I think I need to go into the woods to scream into the night for a bit.

It's $5, not your first-born child! I need that $5 for health insurance!

The Lions offensive line just got a lot better, as one the game's greats will return -- Center Frank Ragnow is returning. Sounds like he's in shape and ready to roll sooner, rather than later.

Happy Thanksgiving to the Lions.

Oh yeah totall a custody battle. "self-deport so you never see your child again."
“After Ferreira was detained, Dos Santos Rodrigues said Michael Leavitt Sr. and his father, Bob Leavitt, reached out to her.”

“‘They just kept saying, ‘Tell her to self-deport,’” she recalled. “Self-deport to where? Brazil is not her home.’” www.bostonglobe.com/2025/11/26/m...
‘Brazil is not her home.’ Mother of Karoline Leavitt’s nephew, brought to US as child, detained by ICE. - The Boston Globe
Bruna Ferreira, 33, was brought to the United States as a child in 1998. She is now in removal proceedings in Louisiana.

Olivia Nuzzi wrote an entire story based on unnamed sources about Biden's decline, reinvigorating calls for him to leave the race -- and the whole time, she was working on RFK Jr.'s behalf, according to her ex-fiance. newrepublic.com/article/2035...
Olivia Nuzzi’s Real Victims
More than her fiancé, or fellow female journalists, the public will pay the price for these misdeeds. RFK Jr. will see to that.

Haven't received as many contributions as usual for this year's lists--could be many things, but one aspect is surely that our ability to get this in front of people is much diminished. If you know folks whose stuff should be on here, please suggest it! contingentmagazine.org/yearly-pub-l...

A roundtrip LAX-JFK flight in the late 60s was around $3K in today’s dollars. The people who wore suits on those flights were the people who regularly wore suits. Complaining about informally-dressed fliers is complaining that the wrong sorts of people are flying today.

At my usual lunch place. Thry started pouring my tea as doon as I walked in

When the server delivered my burger he said "We don't do pickles on the side anymore."

Me: as long as there's pickles I'm good."

I think I even got extra pickles.

It’s worth reading this article in full because it points out how while Epstein had a lot of friends, Thiel was one of the few he actually invested with.

Tis the season for holiday teas. And therefore this helpful warning is necessary. Many of these holiday flavors have barley in them. If you have to be gluten free, check the ingredients. Many a celiac has been taken down by a holiday tea.
