Muting a Black woman to claim the vote was unanimous is so incredibly on the nose
The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

The USA is a lowkey war zone and places like schools, malls, and movie theaters are outposts that need to be fortified.
Trump on Brown University: You would really have to ask the school about that because this was a school problem. They had their own guards, their own police, their own everything but you would have to ask that question to the school and not to the FBI.

We are experiencing a more severe than usual flu season and COVID rates are starting to rise. If you want to reduce your chances of getting sick, one of the most effective things you can do is wear a high quality mask. 🤫

It won’t stop with brown ppl. Those private prisons aren’t going to fill themselves.
🎯 CIVIL RIGHTS LAWYER @oliverma2026.bsky.social: “The detention centers are run by private prison companies (like @CoreCivic) — they make millions PER PERSON… that’s why they’re looking for anybody brown, so they can keep stealing from taxpayers.”

BREAKING: Billionaire threatens non-billionaire Americans with sub-standard health insurance. Doesn’t appear to know how health insurance already works in the world.
For all Universal HC/Single Payer/M4A advocates.
What do the biggest, expensive hospital chains do. Do they opt out and only serve the rich ?
Who in the USA gov runs the program?
R U ok with having to see a primary care doc before you can see a specialist ?

I can hear future high school students asking: "They couldn't find four GOP members of the House to switch parties?"
Republican leaders on Capitol Hill are moving decisively away from extending key Obamacare tax credits that help more than 20 million Americans pay for health insurance — following direct cues from Trump while also stoking ire among many in the GOP who fear severe political repercussions.
GOP moves to let Obamacare subsidies expire as Trump promises ‘money to the people’
As the president rails against insurance companies, other Republicans say allowing a subsidy lapse is “not acceptable.”

The December Comfort Watch series continues today with Albert Brooks' Defending Your Life, which posits one of the most interesting afterlife scenarios ever -- and once helped me get a big damn raise at my newspaper job.

If you haven't watched "Call Me Lucky," which is a documentary about Barry Crimmins, now's a great time. It deals with difficult themes and life events so be careful.

Okay - I read the report of the Lizza report of RFK Jr's sex poems and all I see is slut shaming of Nuzzi and kink shaming overall and Lizza can go to hell. (I'm no fan of RFK Jr. He's a monster.)

Yes, the Dems gave in but they’re dealing with psychos. If you want to blame anyone, blame any four Republicans in either chamber who won’t switch parties and end this catastrophe. They are telling you they know the midterms will not matter.

How can anyone see what the GOP is doing and not believe that their goal is to crash the US economy?
NB: The shut down would have never happened if the GOP had agreed to make insurance at the ACA marketplaces slightly more affordable by not letting existing subsidies run out. That's it.

If OpenAI were to fall on hard financial times now, who exactly would be hurt? In other words, is it possible for OpenAI to figure its own shit out now (albeit painfully for some) before it becomes a too-big-to-fail vampire squid burdening the US economy? I think we're at a crossroads.

The Dems have offered a one-year extension of the subsidies that make health insurance at the ACA exchanges less expensive. That's down from infinity to one and if the GOP doesn't take that deal, it'll be because they want the gov't shut down. The Dems need to make everyone understand that.

re: the Douthat column. It's 3 people with good vocabularies & clear agendas who know a little about a lot of things (lots of those things are wrong) & who dissemble their way through a conversation that requires so much fact checking that it’s not worth anyone’s time.
