I have to admit, the first snow of the season always has me a little keyed up in a good way. I work at home tomorrow so I can go out and do snow angels if I feel like it.

I probably won't though.

It's funny that one thing brings them all together.

New: Hillary Clinton will be speaking at an event hosted by Israel Hayom (Israel's most read newspaper, run by Israeli-American billionaire & Trump megadonor Miriam Adelson).

She'll join John Fetterman, Eric Adams, Trump UN Ambassador Mike Waltz, Biden official Amos Hochstein, and Israeli officials

Looking at crazy rush hour tomorrow morning in Pittsburgh as we get the biggest snow in years (just 2-5 inches) and people forget how to drive. Luckily I'm working at home tomorrow.

They're going to sell out the Ukranians the same way Chamberlain sold out the Czechs at Munich.
🇪🇺🇺🇸🇺🇦 EU warns US against pressuring Ukraine over peace plan, - Bloomberg.

Kallas warned that US attempts to persuade Ukraine to a peace deal would encourage Russian aggression.

There is a risk that the US will expect concessions from Kyiv in order to quickly end the war.

The Queen of Lies.
It's legal because we say it's legal. If you don't believe us, so what? What are you going to do about it? Our base believes all the shit we shove at them and that's all that matters.
REPORTER: Does the administration deny that that second strike happened, or did it happen and the administration denies that Hegseth gave the order?

LEAVITT: The latter. Secretary Hegseth authorized Admiral Bradley to conduct these kinetic strikes. He worked well within his authority and the law.

It's not JUST Rogers, it's the horrible Steelers playcalling.

The rot is from top to bottom with this team.

1-5 from here and clean house.

Oh, OK, stop me if you don't know what happens next - Rudolph's first pass is an interception!

Hopeless. But necessary to finally force Rooney II to make changes.
Right out of the lockerroom Rogers gets clocked by Joey Bosa and gives up a fumble touchdown to the Bills.

Rudolph the redshirted backup comes in to do his usual mediocrity.

The Steelers are hopeless.

I have to watch the Steelers on CBS Sports so I have to see all the promos for the shows on the Copaganda Broadcasting System (CBS). The dialogue is getting so wild that one of the female lead's lines sounded like it was coming right from Kristi Noem. I know that's on purpose. It's the aud they want

Yes I see the problem - it's late stage capitalism.

But as long as Americans are brainwashed to regard anything that smells of SOCIALISM!!!! as being demonic, nothing will change.

We choke on our own stupidity in America.
Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

But if she asks him "how can you just lie like that?" He gets up and leaves, she gets fired, and CBS has to pay Trump $20 million for anyone from the administration to be on the network's news shows again.

I mean Bari Weiss would absolutely have a SNIT!
Number of states where average gas prices are below $2:

Zero.

Number of states where average gas prices are anywhere NEAR $2:

Zero.
HASSETT: Gas prices dropped below $2 a gallon in a lot of places

CORDES: Gas prices on average are still at $3 a galloon

HASSETT: For a few states they got below $2

Aaron Rogers couldn't hit my dead mother's gravestone in the cemetery from thirty feet.

Steelers situation: hopeless.

Only way we get rid of Tomlin is a complete later season cratering. And theoretically, they could lose all their remaining games with the possible exception of Cleveland or Miami

This is a continuing concern and danger to anyone who opposes what Trump wants. It's government via gangsterism.
A new post by a Republican state Senator in Indiana, saying she will "not cave" on redistricting as she shares that she was just the target of a pipe bomb threat to due "DC political pundits."

Being a former Clevelander living in Pittsburgh I was hoping to see the Browns on TV today but we get the Colts-Texans game. I guess CBS thinks this is an important game since they have the Iron Eagle calling the play by play.

Steelers at 4. Win or it's (almost) over.

On the day after his inauguration in 2029, President Newsom will address the American people: "I know that there are many of you who seek retribution and prosecutions for what has happened the last 4 years. But we must move on . . ."

You know it will happen.
November 30, 2025 at 3:48 PM
Legally? Wait, are you telling me we still have laws, because right now all I see is this admin doing as they please. First, it's careerism since these admirals and officers know they will be fired, second, it's the threats that their families will most assuredly receive for their "disloyalty."
Mark Kelly on the Trump/Hegseth boat strikes: "If orders are illegal, not only do they not have to follow them, they are legally required not to follow them."

On one hand, you have the horrors of people being beaten up and kidnapped by ICE and then you have these pardons of crooks who robbed many of their life's savings leaving them destitute. And then somehow, his supporters say Trump is a man of the people.
He scammed over 1,000 people, most of whom were not wealthy - veterans, farmers, teachers, nurses, small businesses owners. Some lost everything. But he’s a rich Republican, so Trump let him get away with it. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/29/u...

Republican John Kennedy declared, “Attacking Mark Kelly is attacking the Constitution itself. A president calling for the death penalty for his political opponents — that’s not democracy. That’s the first brick laid on the road to fascism.”

My wife has finally fulfilled her destiny as a West Side (former) Clevelander. Today she not only bought her first bowling ball but a custom bag to go with it.

I pointed out that all she needed to do was to monogram her initials on the bag and she would have the full Cleveland.
