Interstellar #comet #3I/ATLAS in the early hours of November 20 as seen from Crete, as the weather was favorable. A faint ion tail and anti-tail can be seen as the comet is past perihelion. Nothing out of the ordinary but cool to see such a bright interstellar object. #cometWatch

This is bad in politics and worse in business and ridiculous in sports where they are cravenly kissing ass for access.
i find it so off-putting when you watch journalists interviewing politicians and you can tell they’re friendly, all in a big club that doesn’t serve the public’s interests. access journalism is the opposite of accountability journalism.

Next they will bemoan the lost world of debutante balls where plantation owners sipped mint juleps handed out by slaves. Nostalgia can be a narcotic.

These guests need to call out Brennan as a suck up eager to appease her new right wing masters. She knows that was a bullshit question. Embarrass her.
The press contact for FACE THE NATION is amanda.leonard@paramount.com if anyone wants to explain to them why people might care about a massive pedophile sex trafficking ring that apparently implicates the president and several other powerful men.
Margaret Brennan to Tom Suozzi: "Can you explain the focus this past week in the House by Democrats on the Jeffrey Epstein files? Is this a tactic to distract from the failure to extract healthcare changes?"

The number of days until Boerbert or one of the other GOP signers backs off will be less than the number of days until they hold the vote to release the Epstein files.

We will see. My guess is they got one of the GOP signees to agree to back off.
BIG NEWS: Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva will finally be sworn in as a member of Congress tomorrow.

She is likely to be the 218th vote on the Epstein discharge petition, which would force a full vote to release the Epstein files in their entirety.

We should ban all private flights until the shutdown is over and air traffic control is fully staffed. And after that favor commercial flights. Private flights are mostly vanity and douchery.
SEE?!?!?!? THIS is what we need to do. There is an epidemic of private jets screwing up our airports. There is simply no room for commercial jets when we let every fat cat take up ATC time and attention with his social plumage private jet.

A deep disdain for empathy and decency? Amorality? Unquenchable greed? The ability to give hand jobs at kid's plays? You're going to tell us the answer, Maga Nadine, right?

We need a new word or phrase. Sycophant and toady and brown noser aren't cutting it. Maybe lickspittle? It's German but its evocative of how these Syco-toad-nosers debase themselves every day.

So would it be the the Dozy Don Stadium or the Convicted Felon Bowl? And will the corporate sponsor be Palantir or Binance? So many questions.

Love that "according to pollsters" is in rare lower case, as even he didn't believe it.
Mr. "I Don't Take Responsibility At All" thinks the MASSIVE BLUE WAVE was because he wasn't on the ballot, not
a Major Referendum on his 2nd Term.

Turns out folks prefer feeding the hungry over building expen$ive, tacky Ballrooms.

Looking forward to the midterms... 🌊

An "exododus" is when the dodos leave a place, so I think they got it right. And also this is sheer made up bullshit.
"exododus"
