Reminder that "firing on the shipwrecked" is literally THE example used in the DoD War Manual of "a clearly illegal order"
“Leavitt told reporters at the White House press briefing that Hegseth authorized Adm. Frank Bradley to carry out the second strike, which reportedly killed two people who were hanging onto the burning vessel after an initial strike.” Wow. 12/1/25 thehill.com/homenews/562...

They're not hiding it, folks—straight up neo-Nazi advertising, from the font to the language to the 11 stars for the Confederacy. Then you have the DHS openly using white nationalist language of "remigrate", which means ethnic cleansing.
This is who MAGA is now.

I really appreciate that @pbsnews.org ended the interview with this graphic.
It captures, in the simplest and starkest terms, the brutal arithmetic driving this country's homelessness catastrophe.

The Boston Globe identified the companies in Massachusetts that employ the most SNAP recipients. A key stat: "In Massachusetts, 74% of working-age recipients of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program are employed, half of them full-time."

“The American Revolution," the latest documentary series from Ken Burns, begins this coming Sunday on PBS. I can’t think of a better time to learn about the founding of our country. #democracy #US #history #PBS @kenlburns.bsky.social
Burns: The Old Testament says there’s nothing new under the sun. On July 4th, 1776, there was. Everybody up to that point had been under authoritarian rule. It was in the interests of their rulers that they be uneducated, that they be superstitious, that they be distracted by conspiracies…

It’s the 50th anniversary today of the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. Gordon Lightfoot’s song is haunting. It reminds me of the perils faced at sea by relatives and ancestors, some of whom were shipwrecked. It must have been terrifying. #Maine #Genealogy

A barn owl swooped down in front of my windshield on the way back from Keene one moonless night on a dark road. They're such magical looking birds! #birds #owls #wildlife #NH
Ah why not? Here's another Barn Owl picture I have taken. This beauty was flying right towards me.

Sanders: Let’s be clear… If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are going to see at least a doubling in their premiums… if resolution is passed tonight, we are on a path way to throw 15 million Americans off of medicaid and the affordable care act, 15 million.

“The good thing is that the surrounding area is part of the Netherlands. We can place new panels at the entrance and add some panels about rising racism and exclusion under the influence of populism and nationalism.” #Margraten
Het fijne is dat het omringende grondgebied van Nederland is. We kunnen bij de ingang nieuwe panelen plaatsen, en enkele panelen toevoegen over toenemende racisme en uitsluiting onder invloed van populisme en nationalisme.
Terwijl 12,5% van de Amerikaanse militairen in WOII zwart waren en een speciale rol in het leger vervulden, is de regering Trump niet te beroerd om die rol uit te wissen door twee gedenkpanelen op de begraafplaats van #Margraten te laten verwijderen. Schande!

87 years ago today, the Kristallnacht burned. 36 years ago today, the Berlin Wall fell.
Whether from the darkness of 9.11.1938 or light of 9.11.1989, the lesson for 🇩🇪 in 2025 is clear: Fight for freedom. Stop fascists. #StandWithUkraine. Their fight for freedom & peace is ours.
