Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:

Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.

If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.

Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

TRUMP [after spending 5 minutes with Zohran]: surplus value, it’s a very wonderful thing, very wonderful, and they’re stealing it. Can you believe that?

We’re going to be looking very strongly at the bourgeoisie, what they’re up to

Piggy, horse face, dogs..... this is what he calls women who stand up to him. He's got no other weapons besides insults, because he can't debate with them, he can't communicate with them, he can't out do their achievements. He's not smart enough, so name calling is all he's got

We're all paying the price in lost jobs, higher energy costs, sound pollution and more. AI farms should be heavily taxed and fund the poor and middle class.

This idea that #metoo was a temporary piece of insanity that happened because America was too woke...

Fuck you. It was a temporary moment in time when people decided, for the first time, that 20 women were finally equal to one man.

El agravio por la inseguridad es real y legítimo.

Entonces... ¿por qué quienes oficialmente convocaron a la marcha decidieron inventarse que eran la Gen Z en vez de simplemente representar ese agravio?

Hoy reflexiono sobre sus razones:

La política del engaño a la Generación Z
La marcha reflejó un agravio real, pero fue manipulada por convocantes sin conexión genuina con la ciudadanía.

More of this calling their bs please!
KARL: The president claims that Thanksgiving costs are down 25%. Does he know that's not true?

HASSETT: Well if you look at Walmart--

KARL: Wait a minute. I've gotta stop you. The Walmart package this year contains much less than the one last year. That's why the price is less.

The bill to reopen the government sneaks in three changes that will cause harm:

A stricter ban on abortion nationwide

An end to FDA food safety regulations

A near total ban on hemp products that will outlaw THC and remove another pain control option from the market

They want to cause pain

This is a core element of conservative philosophy: If a single "undeserving" person is getting a government benefit, the answer is to take it away from millions.*

Never forget the same people defending pedophilia have spent years trying to convince the public that drag queens and trans people are a threat to children.

It’s all smoke and mirrors to allow the real predators to roam free.

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.

So much work remains to be done.

Listen Kaine, Hassan, King, Cortez-Masto, Durbin, Shaheen, Rosen, and Fetterman. You're NOT gonna take away my 2025 election joy. We voted in that election for folks to FIGHT for us. That doesn't include YOU.

YOU are what we voted AGAINST last Tuesday. So I'm gonna hang on to that.

🚨 Tim Kaine is saying the quiet part out loud - underscoring why anyone shouldn't be satisfied with any of the "no" statements or posts from Dem Senators.

If Dem Senators are truly disgusted with this save they should be calling on #SurrenderSchumer to step aside as the Leader immediately.
