Enjoying the Palouse.
Done just before he revoked the tariffs, I'm sure, lowering inflation and thereby interest rates and boosting the price of bonds. I'm no "hide your money in the mattress" guy, but investing in stocks and bonds now means betting against people who create the inside information that they trade on.
BREAKING: Donald Trump has just disclosed new trades.

He bought at least $20 million in bonds and at least $1 million in the bond ETF $SPHY.

Thanks for the tip! Mercifully, my youngest turned 18 a couple of days ago, so I am now out of the woods, but I can really see the benefit of calling 988 ahead of time.

It's all in the framing. The New York Times didn't say, "Mamdami Moves to Keep Campaign Promises." Instead, it's www.nytimes.com/2025/11/05/n...

NEW: A JAMA study finds that "between August 2022 and December 2024 ... Idaho lost 94 of the 268 OBGYN physicians practicing obstetrics."

Just 20 new OBGYNs moved to Idaho in that time, "and 114 of the 268 baseline obstetricians" stopped practicing, left the state, or retired.

What the actual hell was CBP looking for? This suggests a very specific pre-existing investigation that was done in coordination with the FBI to target him in particular.

Coeur d'Alene has the highest concentration of right-wing white nationalists of any area in the country. Here is why today's terrorist attack on firefighters was probably carried out by liberal Democrats.

As someone who has been on the business end of nationwide injunctions that I thought were improper, I find the question of what rules we should adopt for them to be genuinely hard. But yesterday's decision deserves massive criticism, for at least two reasons. (Thread.)

I’ve reached full retirement age and applied for benefits. Historically the review took up to 30 days (per website when I applied). It took 60 days to process my application so, yes, time was doubled.

I barely survived puberty in an era of no language, knowledge, or resources. Thankfully my attentive mom saw my misery, and my note.

If I’d lived in a time when there is language, knowledge, and resources? But told you cannot have them? I would not have survived that.
every trans adult was once a trans kid. it was hell growing up in a closet i wasn’t fully aware of. can’t imagine how much worse it would be to know exactly what you need and be told you can’t legally have it.

my heart is absolutely shattered.
