I don't actually care if Schumer resigns. The whole Senate Democratic Caucus is terrible. All of them.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

The dems in leadership are idiots.
Trump just celebrated Schumer's cave by pardoning 75+ co-conspirators including Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, and Sidney Powell, for their efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

The Dems I voted for are literally voting to confirm Trump’s fascists. So this argument doesn’t hold water anymore.
Staying at home is a vote for the fascists…

Much like 2024, Democrats seem to think there’s a binary choice in the 2026 election between voting for Republicans (evil) and voting for Democrats (feckless).
They rarely acknowledge the third option which inevitably harms them the most: staying home.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.
Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.
This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

Probably true, but today I felt awesome as Malcom and I were out and about.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

I missed the Packers game, because of rehearsal. Probably a good choice.
Then I made an even better choice, rather than watch, I played a board game with my kid while listening to The Church's "Starfish" for the first time in 6 years. Very good choice.

In Chicago, a Halloween weekend of immigration arrests and violence
Over the weekend there were violent clashes between federal agents, witnesses and protesters. Locals say the festivities were muted this year, and fear more violence is in store for the city.

I am seeing way too many people wanting the Packers to move on from McManus for Lucas Havrisik. Havrisik was awesome for 2 weeks, but in his only prior kicking experience he was 75% on FGs & 86% on XP. 2 games is way too small of a sample for me to rely on at this point

This is a sad day for news in America. John Dickerson has been consistently steady, truthful, and insightful.
It'll be really interesting to see if John Dickerson is leaving CBS News voluntarily or if he was pushed out

Family size around the world is dropping. That choice by couples is triggering a population shift that's sending shock waves through economies.
