Sorry guys, I know I’ve been quiet this week, but I’ve been recovering from shaking too many hands

Whitehouse: Not only were the founders extremely interested in checks and balances but they were desperately concerned about corruption.

This Court has consistently taken the side of corruption against every device Congress has created to fight political corruption.

BILL BURR: “If someone’s working 160 hours a month and can’t make their rent, you’re not paying them enough. Maybe you should just be worth $900,000,000… How does a CEO take a f*cking 8 figure bonus and none of your employees have dental insurance?”

Mike Johnson views his primary role as Speaker to prevent as many votes as possible on things that would easily pass because a bipartisan majority favors them. That is exactly what he has done his entire tenure. He blocks things majorities want and keeps the House out of session for long stretches.

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

Koh: This is not about justice. This is about power. This is about a Secretary of Defense so drunk off alpha male bullshit that he's willing to take lives to get off on that power.

The Republican chairs of both the House and Senate Armed Services committees signed a letter yesterday stating that they requested specific info many weeks ago on these strikes and the WH & Pentagon have refused to provide it. If the story is fake news, then turn everything over.

I finally saw a Kinglet (maybe two?) yesterday. My Mom heard a theory that songbirds may be catching bird flu from domestic poultry, causing a lot casualties. Sadly, it makes sense.

I would call Pete Hegseth a war criminal, but we aren’t at war. He’s just a mass murderer.

This seems a significantly worse "tell" of derangement

-Sen Kelly has flown nearly 40 *combat missions* as a pilot.
-He's done 375+ carrier landings (Jeesh!)
-He's been in space as astronaut.
-He's flown 50+ different kinds of aircraft

And Hegseth and Trump are picking fight about valor with him?
The Department of Defense announces it's considering "court-martial proceedings or administrative measures" against Democratic Senator Mark Kelly.

Setting aside for a second the lunacy and authoritarianism surrounding the Trump/Hegseth threat to court martial Mark Kelly, it is also politically moronic. No military court or jury would uphold this, and you only do Kelly a tremendous favor by making him more popular than ever.

All of our backyard birds are more scarce than usual this year. Maybe it's the hawks, but I haven't really seen that many hawks either. It's always happy to be able to catch a glimpse of a wee Ruby-crowned kinglet. Alexandria, Virginia 11.17.2025 #birds

It's the Gulf of Mexico. It's the Department of Defense. He DOES NOT HAVE THE AUTHORITY to do these changes. If we don't refuse the little things, how are we supposed to fight the escalation?
