Last night, when I picked up my pizza, the burly guy handing me my boxes offered me dinner theater. After we exchanged musical snippets from West Side Story, he did a delightfully lengthy rendition of Officer Krupke as Punk 2. This is what America should always be like!

I’d like to know who’s catering this event, because it’s gotta be a hefty contract.

You want to know what a couple of decades of standardized testing has done to literacy rates?

Rep. Ted Lieu is so good at this.

The image is an X post by Rep. Ted Lieu (@RepTedLieu
) from 3 hours ago, with the caption "Hmmm... weird." The post includes a meme with three panels. The first panel, labeled "Republicans when they have to vote on the Epstein files," shows an empty hallway with an American flag. The second panel, labeled "Republicans when there's a government shutdown," shows an empty conference room. The third panel, labeled "Republicans when it's time to cut taxes for billionaires," shows a group of people clapping and cheering.

Democrats are rejecting a 7-week “band-aid” that delays the fight—because waiting means 20M face higher premiums ＆ 15M could lose Medicaid.

Better to fight now than abandon families later.

Miller’s apparent elevation to shadow president and his seeming intent to declare an end to the constitutional order would, in any other administration, be treated as a executive branch meltdown that was immensely embarrassing for the president and requiring Miller’s immediate removal

In response to Noem’s threat, foreign tourist should avoid the Superbowl and ALL sporting events including FIFA and the Olympics in the USA. Scratch that — they should avoid the USA all together until we have a new administration.

Nobody was answering the phone at my local affiliate so I submitted this photo to the “Chime In” section where folks upload their sunset photos etc.

Disney: produces Andor, a show about the hard-fought resistance to a dictatorial, authoritarian regime.

Also Disney: cancels a comedian/late show hosts’ show because it’s what an authoritarian dictator has wanted for years.

So Disney can publish Andor, but they just can't understand it.

according to an immigration attorney representing several arrested workers, ICE agents chose to arrest the Korean workers to fulfill the quota of 3,000 daily immigrant arrests set by Stephen Miller www.forbes.com/sites/stuart...

Stephen Miller’s Quota Likely Drove Korean Arrests In Immigration Raid

When ICE agents arrested over 300 Korean workers at a Georgia battery plant, a daily immigrant arrest quota was likely on their minds.
