Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

I know that at this point it's a subplot in the Epstein files drama, but I feel compelled to point out, once again, that Larry Summers HAS NO BUSINESS teaching students at ANY university ever again!

My latest cries into the abyss, in @thenation.com

Why Is Larry Summers Still Employed?
The revelations about the economist’s attempts to pressure a women into a “relationship”—with guidance from Jeffrey Epstein—should finally disqualify him from teaching students.

"I just say, ‘You know, it’s hard for me to care about Riley Gaines tying for fifth when my swim coach is accused of raping my teammates.”

Gaines never talks about her teammates who were raped by her coach that she supported.

Symone: How is MTG going to “atone for her role in the toxicity of our politics?"

Trump’s push to block the release of the Epstein files has sparked a dramatic break with Marjorie Taylor Greene. @symonedsanders.bsky.social and @cmgreer.bsky.social discuss what the rupture reveals about the GOP.

When I was pregnant, I tried to eat well, stay healthy & protect myself from undue stress because the baby could be affected.

For this reason, ICE had a long time policy not to detain pregnant people.

But now they are detaining them, brutalizing them & denying medical attention.

Trump snapped at an NBC reporter for debunking his claim that Walmart’s Thanksgiving dinner will be cheaper this year than last. In reality, the Thanksgiving bundle he has has repeatedly touted actually contains less food than last year's.

‪Here’s the rub regarding any shutdown deal, Tennessee has a special election for House seat TN-7 and the Senate Democrats who caved just likely screwed this candidate. We need that seat to flip but all that positive energy from the election will be dampened by mistrust and doubt.‬

The 60 Minutes interview, in which Nora O’Donnell let Trump blather on with lie after lie without fact-checking him or pushing back, is a reminder of why we need journalists who will hold him accountable rather than just giving him a platform to spread lies.

Members of Congress will still receive their $79 meal per diem allowance while allowing SNAP recipients to lose their $6 per diem allowance.

Thanks to government food assistance, JD Vance had food to eat as a kid.

Now he's an elitist MAGA prick who wants to strip food assistance from kids like him.
