In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

I admit that I'm a little creepy for being slightly excited the marathons for "Homicide for the Holidays" have started.

Trumps cut to Continuum of Care grant criteria, cuts funding for permanent supportive housing by 50%. 170,000 people could become newly homeless. This is an outrageous attack on the most vulnerable of populations.

From time to time, I wonder what Roger Stone is up to. He's the most conspicuous villain missing from Trump's first administration and coup attempt.

Greene's departure represents another political notch in Trump’s belt, the retreat of another would-be Republican rebel. But the defiant nature of her video announcement hinted at the fissures now dividing the president’s movement. Lisa Lerer @reidepstein.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/11/22/u...

In Rhode Island, ICE arrested an intern who worked for a court, and then a judge intervened to say they had the wrong person.

All leading to a scene where ICE agents surrounded the judge's car and "threatening to smash in the windows if they did not comply." www.wfla.com/news/judge-i...

Today was one of *those* days. You know, the ones where nothing goes right. You stub your toe as soon as you get out of bed in the morning and the rest of the day is like stubbing your toes again... and again... and... then, I spend some money I shouldn't to get high and it's all manageable again.

Donald Trump called for violence against members of Congress.

It’s wrong — everyone must condemn threats of violence.

We must have their backs.

NEW: Mississippians still have not received their full SNAP benefits more than a week after the government shutdown ended due to problems with a 40-year-old computer system running on COBOL.

And there is no guarantee they'll get them before Thanksgiving—or even by December.

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

How are we supposed to dispose of our expired credit cards now? Mine resists my scissors and it doesn't seem to respond to the technique of folding until it breaks. I don't have a shredder. This has gotten ridiculous.

Sometimes, I don't feel like I belong on social media. I like catching the news right from the horses mouths, so to speak, and I like reading others' opinions or takes on the news. I'm not interested in building real relationships here, though, and my comments feel useless most times.

This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

Zohran Mamdani doesn’t make me, an American Jew, feel unsafe.

Having the Coast Guard, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, decide that a swastika isn’t really a symbol of hate? That makes me, an American Jew, feel pretty damn unsafe.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) says someone showed up to her D.C. office today and made white supremacist threats. Capitol Police had to intervene.

This was hours after Trump said Democrats in Congress should be executed.
