BOTH of my U.S. Senators voted YES. Shameful.
Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->
By a vote of 76-23, S 1071 passes the motion to proceed to the motion to concur. Won't know who voted for this until the roll call is uploaded, but safe to say it passed with the support of at least 24 members of the Democratic caucus. (Rand Paul probably voted nay and Steve Daines has been absent).

Somehow my number got on a MAGA list. Now I get texts from Trump, his son, Turning Point USA, etc. Every text costs them a little $ so I don’t stop them. It is fascinating, these texts read just like the ones I get from the Democrats. Hyping fear, survival, and “our values”. It’s all bullshit .

As many of you know, I am a registered voter who is unaffiliated with any party. Today I received this in the mail from my local BoE asking me to choose Dem or Republican. WTAF? I choose neither!!

Update: HEAP reopened on Monday, & she was approved immediately. But, the oil company can't deliver the oil for 9 days! It's never-ending. Meanwhile, she is being provided respite care from hospice where she can be warm, & her home can be cleaned so she can get the 24 hr aides she needs to be safe.
I’ve got a friend who’s 65 y.o., lives in a mobile home home in a rural area. She has Parkinson’s and is on home Hospice. Went to visit her. She has NO HEAT, it was so cold in her home. Due to shutdown, no HEAP assistance until January. I will get her a months worth of oil. How cruel the Rs are.

Holy shit, this administration is openly stating they will only follow legal. orders with which they agree. Will SCOTUS even care? They’re fine with the Executive Branch defying the judicial branch?
When a judge issues an order in any case, that is literally the law in that particular matter

Full stop

It can be appealed, reversed, stayed or amended-but until that happens (if it ever does), all parties MUST follow the ruling

So-Kristi Noem just admitted to contempt

There must be consequences
KARL: Did you know about the judge's order when you issued your order for the planes to continue?

KRISTI NOEM: This is an activist judge. We comply with all federal orders that are lawful and binding.

This is the most important op-ed you'll read this week. The Trump administration is about to get rid of the birth-dose of hepatitis B vaccine. That is a deadly choice for many families. @helenouyang.bsky.social tells her story. Now call your member of Congress. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/01/o...

You won't see Democrats putting Venezuelan flags in their profile next to the Ukrainian flags because they agree with Trump in ending the sovereignty of socialist nations.
Also the victims aren't white.

This mailer being sent out in #NY17 is WILD.

All of the wording about Mike Lawler is technically accurate, but hoo-boy the design choices here are something to behold.

Definitely zoom in and read for yourself.

I can't live if living is without you. I can't give. I can't give anymore.

And there's no letting go
So let me be the first to say
I'm lost without you

Go away

Stop. The. Killing.
On Friday, our confirmed count of Russia’s war dead passed 145,000. We noted a sharp rise in the number of teenagers killed at the front, fueled by new laws allowing 18-year-olds and criminal suspects to be recruited from detention.

This is exactly correct.
Assume all the yes and no votes from Dem senators are strategic and not sincere votes. The party caucus made a decision. No way to know how many were in favor. Then the caucus decided who would vote yes and no based on what would protect each of them politically the most. That’s how this works.
