"...a female Bloomberg reporter at a press gaggle aboard Air Force One November 14 asked him if there was anything “incriminating” in the Epstein files, he pointed a finger in her face and said: “Quiet! Quiet, Piggy.”
We know his natural inclination is to dismiss women.

Kash ordered a team of FBI agents to go through the Epstein files many months ago to redact Trump’s name based on FOIA exemptions 6 and 7. It is highly unlikely they are going to be unredacted before they are released. ONLY victim info should be redacted, but much more will be.

My nephew eventually ended his own life. We know this played a part in that, too.
My wildland firefighter son got Valley Fever from fungus released during a prescribed burn in the Sierras. He was miserable, missed work (unpaid), and his private contract company refused to cover his medical expenses. Some sort of respiration protection is urgently needed.
Senators propose bill to require PPE for wildland firefighters, but some have reservations

Tonight Aaron Rupar of Public Notice wrote: “I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here[?]”

Political strategist Simon Rosenberg commented: “If Trump wags the dog in Venezuela it is going to do enormous damage to his already degraded brand here in the US. Zero support for this in the public. Will be seen for what it is—[a] transparent attempt to rescue his flailing Presidency.”

Cruelty is the point: President Donald J. Trump did not want the shutdown to end this way. He was trying to use the pain he was inflicting on the American people to force Republican senators to end the filibuster and pass a series of measures that would essentially have made him a dictator.

A cool quite: ... CNN asked Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy “how many Americans will not be able to be with their families for [Thanksgiving] because of this,” Duffy answered: “I think the number is going to be substantial.”
Obviously, once again, the cruelty is the point.

From the letter: Abha Bhattarai of the Washington Post reported, U.S. employers have announced 1.1 million layoffs so far in 2025. That number rivals job cuts during the Great Recession of 2008 and 2009.

A good read as always, with so much critical information we need to digest. And here, finally, we find some hope.
"But in fact, today voters resoundingly rejected Trump and Trumpism, and tomorrow, politics will be a whole different game."

The President is openly defying a court order just to rip food away from starving families. So much for the rule of law. So much for basic humanity. This cruel, lawless man is hell-bent on inflicting pain on the American people—because that’s all he knows how to do.

I just can't get enough of cool reflection pictures at Mounds State Park in Indiana. Fall colors in Indiana have been delayed as we're in a drought. But finally there is some color happening.
Let's see more recent fall pictures!
