For those who asked, three things:
1. This is most likely just asking the currently engaged states to, cumulatively, send 500 more troops. Under the current agreements, that could be done.
2. The ruling from Judge Cobb is stayed by her, so it's not in effect currently. So, more troops could come.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Trump administration orders 500 more National Guard members to Washington after shooting, Hegseth says.

Horrified by today’s tragic shooting of two National Guardsmen near the White House. My thoughts are with their families, their fellow soldiers, and all who serve. We owe them a full investigation and accountability for whoever is responsible.

I was cycling near the White House as the security posture radically changed after 2 National Guard members were shot. @apnews.com reports they’re in critical condition, while a suspect is in custody after being shot: apnews.com/live/trump-n... Please: remember the rules of breaking news.

📣 Even as I'm typing this my son, who's in from college for Thanksgiving, is phone banking for @aftynbehn.bsky.social's campaign.

If he can do that, surely a few folks can chip in a last-minute buck or two to help her flip #TN07, right?

We are monitoring the situation in St. Paul and working to understand what unfolded. We received no heads up from federal authorities on this operation.

While we are always willing to work together on public safety, that is clearly not what this chaotic situation was about.

There are times Antonin Scalia thought diversity was important and necessary (when it got him nominated to the Supreme Court), and times when he thought it was ridiculous and illegal (when there were Black kids going to Harvard)
Antonin Scalia Was a Diversity Hire
The late justice spent his career ridiculing the notion that elite institutions had any interest in diversity. He might not have made the Supreme Court without it.

So IG fed me a video of a cyclist video-ing a driver sailing wildly in and out of the clearly painted bike lane in front of him, and, confusingly to me, the poster of the vid goes, "direct your anger at the cause of this: paint as infrastructure." Um I think driver behavior is also worth addressing?

"It’s especially ironic because the lecture is exactly about the ‘paralyzing cowardice’ of today’s elites." ⬇️
I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Axl Rose wore a "St. Louis Sucks" T-shirt on stage during Guns 'N Roses 1992 tour.

270 police officers responded to the chaos that ensued in St. Louis. It ended with 75 injured, with fans trampling fences, throwing seats at the stage, spraying fire hoses and uprooting trees.

Another benefit: using the draft folder for cooling off helps prevent social media forest fires.
Bluesky needs a 'saved draft' folder. Too many bangers get deleted because I don't want to hit publish...just yet. Need a place to keep 'em on ice until it makes sense to unleash to the world.

BREAKING: Judge rules Lindsey Halligan's appointment was not valid, thus, she had no authority to present the James Comey or Letitia James indictments and the indictments are dismissed without prejudice.
November 24, 2025 at 5:47 PM
>>2/ The dismissal is without prejudice, meaning the gov’t *could* refine the charges. But because the statute of limitations has run here, that’s complicated. The gov’t may try it under a savings provision, appeal Judge Currie’s order or both.<<

I know people are going to revel in the schadenfreude here, but this is really just an admission—given how close the House is split—that they’re just mad it didn’t work. Fewer than a dozen House GOPers could change America tomorrow. That they’re not proves this is just about losing, not principles.
