Defendant: Ms. Pogoatty is the devil your Honor! She's persecuting me! She's Satan! (3rd time he said this.)
Me: So pay your child support before I lay your soul to waste.

Himes must not have that warrior ethos that Kegsbreath says the military needs. Kegsbreath needs to go, along with all the psychophants that follow him.

Well no kidding. Interesting that at least a Republican was able to figure that out and say it out loud.
GOP Rep. Mike Turner: "This activity that's happening in the Caribbean where they are hitting these boats -- these individuals if they were captured and tried and convicted, they would be guilty of criminal activity for which they're not subject to capital punishment. These people are being killed."

What's up with the two bandaids? Is he getting intravenous fluids? That would certainly explain the bruising on his hands.
Shitposting till dawn to distract from the Epstein Files is, apparently, exhausting.

When this Admin and the Majority want to move a priority, they have accepted hundreds of billions of dollars of deficit spending. Yet they’re trying to force disabled veterans to pay for these $7 billion in benefits. This is false scarcity at its finest. Veterans shouldn't stand for it.

Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars.
She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

An update on the fight over health insurance premiums:
Republicans have basically stopped negotiating. Trump is more focused on his ballroom than these cost hikes.
Later this month, Senate Democrats will force a vote on this - one last chance for GOP to do the right thing.

RM @repmarktakano.bsky.social supports expanding veterans' benefits. But there is no reason that disabled veterans should have to pay for them by losing the benefits they've earned through their service and sacrifice.

Coming back from vacation to some good news!
The first baby whale of the 2025-2026 North American right whale calving season was spotted Nov 28 near South Carolina.
Mom is Champagne (ID #3904) and its her 2nd documented calf. What joyful news for a species with 384 whales remaining.

The Republicans’ problem is that their entire health care plan has been to be against stuff: Medicare, Medicaid, Affordable Care.
Their “plans” are an incoherent grab-bag of billionaire-funded policy junk that consumers will hate. Bring it on.
