Clearly, the GOP today support autocracy with Trump. Expect the next 4 years to remind you of Pinochet, Franco, Mussolini, etc. The United States has been transformed into another banana republic via the Republican Party.

This is when kindness comes out. When togetherness, not division, should be #1. We've certainly seen that in Asheville with our devastation. It matters.

Like Mr Rogers said, Look for the helpers.

Our leaders should be helpers. Biden is a helper.
Trump? He's a taker.

Thank you to Canadian firefighters for helping the people of California fight the wildfires.

Don't mind Donald Trump. He's a loony old man.

11/In closing, DOJ comes as close to criticizing a fed'l judge as it ever does, rejecting the Defendants' request that the 11th Circuit send the case back to Judge Cannon & let her handle it. That, they write, will just lead to another emergency appeal to this court.

So much BS to wade through. More incoming.
Meanwhile the entire reason we are all effing here is because nine years ago Bill Clinton stopped on a tarmac to talk with the AG about *his grandkids* and that apparent “breaking of norms” started the whole ball rolling (Comey going rogue, etc. etc.). But of course this is fine. I give up
Justice Samuel Alito says he took a phone call from Donald Trump one day before the president-elect asked the Supreme Court to halt his upcoming sentencing, but insisted that the case was not discussed.

I wonder if @cnn.com will ever realize how much of their lost audience this clown Scott Jennings is personally responsible for?
Crockett: It was my ancestors that built the White House. If we have been good enough to build this country, we are good enough to serve in other ways. Stop trying to act as if only white men are the ones that are capable because you’re sitting with 3 very capable black women

ICYMI – Meta is shifting its trust and safety team from California to the red state of Texas.

Maybe they should also ditch the title “trust and safety”?

SEIU just joined America’s biggest federation of labor unions, the @aflcio.org. Together, we’re taking on corporate union busters and changing the rules so every worker who wants a union can have one. Let’s do this!

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.

He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.

Make sure everyone sees this cartoon. - @aaronparnas.bsky.social

I think it will still be attempted by needing veneer of congressional action. Danger in next two years. Dems v important. Calling Representatives & Senators still an option. They still have eyes on primaries, re-election. Weak tea, I know.
I'm not aware of any authority under Article II which would give a sitting president the ability to deputize a paramilitary group. So, there's at least no formal pathway to doing it.

I'm not sure the Next Occupant would want them under the color of law anyway, though. /1

Sadly, it wouldn’t have found traction. Too many want to deep-six all civil rights. White supremacy.
I reposted hopefully it will get to the right eyes. Thanks, would have loved to have seen before the election

US educators should take a lesson from Finland to improve citizenship.
While we’re banning books…

Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar.

Be. Like. Finland.

I’ve sent babies with pertussis to the ICU. They develop episodes of apnea (stop breathing).Babies are too young to be vaccinated or fully vaccinated. Herd immunity protects babies, when others don’t vaccinate, babies get sick. Vaccines are a group project, lives depend on your participation.
Antivaxers want to see what life is like without vaccines. I got you.

Whooping Cough in an infant.

96% of all whooping cough deaths occur in infants.

But no, do you...
