Under late Biden a clip like this would have been a five alarm fire (rightfully!)
Trump: "For generations Miami has been a haven for those fleeing communist tyranny in South Africa. I mean, if you take a look at what's going on in parts of South Africa. Look at South Africa, what's going on. Look at South America, what's going on. You know, we have a G20 meeting in South Africa."

Grateful to spend two days on the Klamath watching chinook, liberated by dam removal, return to streams from which they’d been precluded since the Titanic sank. Fish are everywhere, in numbers that stagger the mind & locations that biologists figured would take years to repopulate. Too beautiful.

This absolutely sucks, Robyn is the best. Hire Robyn.
This is not the post I thought I'd be writing today but as of this morning my position has been eliminated and I was laid off from the National Audubon Society so if you're looking for someone who has a lot of experience writing to help make the world a better place: hi.

Quite the messaging by the administration two days before the elections!
TAPPER: Do you agree that the US is at risk of a recession?
BESSENT: I believe we are in a transition period here. I think we're in good shape, but there are sectors of the economy that are in recession

Your periodic tip sheet on how to tell downy and hairy woodpeckers apart. The downy (on the left) is smaller, but without a hairy nearby to compare, notice that it’s beak is about 1/2 as long as its head front to back. The beak of the hairy on the right is as long as its head.

The FBI director is flying his girlfriend around on private government planes while FBI agents go without paychecks and families prepare to go hungry as SNAP benefits are being suspended
Patel's girlfriend performed at Penn State last weekend. A government jet arrived at State College Regional Airport, according to its FAA registration, with an address listing the FBI HQ. The plane then flew to Nashville, where his girlfriend lives.
