CDC Data Indicates We’re 2 Months Away From America Losing Its Measles Elimination Status
We've talked a lot about measles throughout this year, which is particularly frustrating given that America officially eliminated this disease from its endemic state back in 2000. How we got here is a very simple story: too many people refused to vaccinate themselves and/or their children, giving the virus a foothold which it had been deprived for nearly a quarter of a century.

No the Democrats in this video aren't "implying" anything. Members of the armed forces ARE required to refuse illegal orders. This is simple. Not controversial at all. And it's super revealing that MAGA is so worried that troops won't carry out an illegal order from Trump.

JD Vance and Peter Thiel are running a sustained operation out of the White House designed to acquire Greenland, either voluntarily or by force. Thiel has laid out plans for what he intends to do with the island nation in past writings. It doesn't entail the consent of the Greenlanders for anything.

Elon Musk is not only an immigrant, his brother spilled the tea that Elon was in the US illegally.

And as this tweet shows, he is also a dipshit with absolutely no self-awareness.

Bruce Hornsby turns 71 today.

Of “The Way it Is”, he said: “I grew up in Virginia, and you could still feel the old lines — racial lines, economic lines — running through everyday life. The lyrics came from seeing those things .. I wasn’t trying to preach; I was just writing down what I saw.”

AG Catherine Hanaway publicly announced she has referred the state’s grassroots referendum campaign to ICE, claiming without evidence that canvassers are “employing illegal aliens” to collect signatures to overturn the mid-decade redraw.

Houlahan points out that courts have found Trump has taken at least 150 unlawful actions since re-taking office, "so yes, those kinds of things are going on. Just because you are the president doesn't mean everything that comes out of your mouth is lawful."

A revived “public charge” standard directs officers to deny visas to people with disabilities, chronic illnesses and age-related conditions—echoing the exclusionary policies of the early 20th century.

Trump and Rubio's “public charge” standard denies visas to people with disabilities, chronic illnesses and age-related conditions. Eugenics, anyone?

Dang - how bad was the Border Patrol invasion in North Carolina?

None other than Thom Tillis himself is blasting DHS for gross overreach, and demanding lists of those detained, property damage caused by CBP agents, and their plan for restitution.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

Andrew Jones’ death is one among a string of jailhouse fatalities that have been linked to allegations of abusive jail conditions that haven’t been reported to the federal government.

Ten years earlier, at the same jail, Albert Graham died from heart problems.

Astonishing to stop and realize that, at any given moment, bands of masked men armed to the teeth are storming churches and daycares, terrorizing entire communities—and that most of the country's political establishment barely blinks.

Folks: Lindsey did not just cross out the no-billed charge, tho she epically fucked up the docketing in another way.

There are actually THREE versions of document:

The no-billed indictment as originally docketed. (The fucked no-bill.)

It really is disgusting that Trump can insult, berate, single out, threaten, and demean female reporters on a daily basis for asking fair and legitimate questions and you can’t find a single Republican woman in Congress to say it is inappropriate behavior.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Former first lady Michelle Obama said the U.S. has “a lot of growing up to do” to be ready for a female president.

“There’s still, sadly, a lot of men who do not feel like they can be led by a woman. And we saw it,” Obama said. https://wapo.st/48kepjO

This is unacceptable -
NEW: Trump is waging war on his own party in Indiana — threatening to primary any GOP lawmaker who refuses to gerrymander the state’s maps ahead of 2026.

His attacks have already had consequences, with one lawmaker he singled out later being swatted.

In Abrego's civil case, govt suddenly claimed on 11/7 that Costa Rica, where Abrego was willing to go, will no longer take him. Only Liberia. It cited a sealed affidavit by an ICE official. Just now, Judge Xinis strikes that affidavit unless the official will testify Thursday.

While we're waiting for denouement of Comey let's rate how big the lies that Lindsey the Insurance Lawyer submitted last week. 1) "There was no additional presentation, interaction, or discussion with the grand jury outside of what is reflected
in the transcript."
