Important thread
I served as our Ambassador in Ukraine for 3 years under Putin’s missiles and drones but resigned when Trump kept appeasing Putin. America does not bow to dictators. It’s not who we are.

Here's why this Trump-Putin so-called "peace plan" is a disaster:

It's not just nursing; they're going after Physical Therapy. These degrees take years to earn, and they want to cap higher education loans for these professions. Spread this far and wide so Trumpers get angry too. #nursing #physicaltherapy

In September 2024, the U.S. economy added 254,000 jobs. Today we learned in September 2025 the economy only added 119,000 jobs. BUT what are the corporate news headlines?! Below is ABC News that sums it up well. The corruption of corporate news is suffocating. They just want to please Trump

Doge dummies fired them and stopped training classes.
Just because they could. They destroyed the FAA and ATC.
They thought it was fun. Trump gave them "permission"
This is all on him.

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?

But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.

But that's just me

I know you're making final Turkey Day plans, but if you're hoping to cash in on home energy tax credits before they expire (thanks One Big Bill!) Dec. 31, you need to get on this ASAP! dontmesswithtaxes.com/claim-these-...
Claim these clean energy tax credits before OBBB ends them
The tax provisions in the One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB) Act also accelerate the termination dates for a variety of other energy-related tax credits. Many home-related ones end Dec. 31, 2025.

All of the individuals spoke to NPR on condition of anonymity for fear of retribution. They questioned the legality of the deadly strikes — many referred to them as murder — and expressed doubts that the new policy would be more effective at stemming the flow of illicit drugs into the United States.

Its incredibly tiresome, and infantilizing, that well heeled New York opinion writers talk about winning in the south as if its a matter of money and resources and not 'this state is full of Republicans because they like Republican shit'
as a white liberal with Southern roots, quite frankly, I think other white liberals from the South need to get the fuck over their oddly defensive attitude about what should be pretty blindingly obvious.
I understand why some white liberals from the Deep South want to insist that there isn't something distinct (and bad) about Southern political culture but the problem with this is that we wouldn't even have this idea of "The South" as distinct from the rest of the US if there wasn't a there there
