We’re all a little hyper sensitive right now. We’re going through trauma. Together. As a nation. It’s understandable to see this coup and blame. However, we must get through #Midterms together. Together! Our focus must remain steadfast while still staving off this traitorous reich regime,…

Now do the graph on University tuition. Is that NIMBY too?
Baby boomers benefited from low university tuition, lower education requirements for entry jobs, cheaper housing, higher minimum wage… then they pulled the ladder up behind them.

Yes, they have, and that's a problem. But there are a lot of reasons for it that people don't wanna hear about (including the effect of cohabitating two-income couples that began in the late 80s, and liberal NIMBY policies).
But yes, you could find a cheap flop more easily in the 80s than now.

NEW: Dems easily flipped the sheriff's office in Pennsylvania's Bucks County, a big swing county in the Philly suburbs.
So? The incumbent GOP sheriff had contracted with ICE. His Dem challenger promised to end the contract.
Now he wants other swing-state Dems to look at his victory as a lesson:

Recount confirms that New Hampshire Republicans very narrowly came out on top in Tuesday special election for state House. Democrat Corinne Cascadden netted 9 votes but still lost by 5 to Republican Marc Tremblay. Trump won it 52-48 last year.

This is an absolutely insane administrative process. Within the space of a week, states were told by judges/White House
*no SNAP benefits
*half benefits
*full benefits
*pause provision of benefits.
Result is chaos, uncertainty, and uneven access to benefits depending on where people live.

NEW: The Trump admin told states it must immediately "undo" the work to provide full food stamp benefits, or face penalties. The feds sent this in a late-night memo, only adding to the chaos and confusion around SNAP. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/09/b...

I don’t need to explain why it’s wildly unacceptable for the military to be illegally privately financed by the president’s wealthy allies, right?
New: The Pentagon confirms to CNN it will funnel $130M from an anonymous Trump “friend” toward military pay.
