He may look sweet, but I tried to drink my coffee this morning while he tossed a plant, played in the spilled potting soil, cleared the windowsill of collected rocks, wrestled with his uncle Murphy (to Murphy's annoyance). 6 month old kittens are the rebellious teenagers of the cat world. #caturday

Just a thought experiment...
Say the discharge petition passes in the House and Senate.
Trump vetoes.
Trump is pretty weakened at this point. Veto overridden.
He makes a deal with Vance to resign if he can be pardoned.
Vance says yes.
But does he?
Oh, and, Theil is in the files too.

It's a threat to NBC. But so was his threat to Kimmel and ABC. How did that turn out? NBC likes money too. And the great thing is MSNBC isn't part of NBC any longer. So we can watch Rachel torch her former network with out guilt we are breaking a boycott.

They're really dumb at this. No subtlety. Just wild noodle throwing everywhere. And they think we're gullible and will fall for it.
In normal times, it would be a major scandal for the President to direct his AG to criminally investigate his political opponents to deflect from his own involvement in a major scandal — and for the AG to immediately announce she is doing it. The Epstein scandal and cover up just got even bigger.

My daughter is 15, a child with a baby face whom I won’t even put in an Uber by herself. Just utterly disgusting from the same people who have spent years demonizing trans people as predators for daring even to exist. What are we even doing right now?

Starbucks workers this Thursday 11/13 are starting a long strike to win a first union contract

Senate Democrats are in an abusive relationship with Republicans. The shut down was a chance to stand up to them, but the Republicans showed up with wilted flowers and the Dems believed they are changed men, until the next time. And there will be a next time.

#GVerse DEMOCRATS,
11 "or more" Democrats are reportedly breaking ranks and preparing to vote for Trump and against their own party and country.
They are getting nothing in return.
Zero gain on ACA subsidies.
They are giving up everything for nothing.
Contact them ASAP. Please share.

Speaker Johnson has repeatedly said he won’t schedule a vote on extending the Obamacare subsidies. So what good is a Senate deal to end the shutdown that hinges on them promising a vote? It would be pointless.

While giving up seat on his bench to a republican senate? While giving up any opportunity to serve as a bulwark to this regime? So he can say what he wants? This is not courage, it's a contract clause for a book deal.
BREAKING: Mark Wolf, appointed to the federal bench by Ronald Reagan, writes that he is resigning as a judge to have the freedom to speak out against the president's assault on the rule of law.

My theory of the case...is Trump wants the shutdown to go into the new year, which is why he only wanted to use half of the reserve. Using the full reserve means he has to open things up in December or Scrooge McDon becomes another unfortunate misnomer.
Breaking: A federal appeals court just denied a last-minute bid by the Trump admin to temporarily halt some SNAP funding during the shutdown.

If you're not struggling, that doesn't make you better than anyone else and most everyone in America is one life changing event away from struggling themselves.

My plan? I will go to my local independent bookstore. I am also making a lot of presents this year. So I will have a day of making over Thanksgiving weekend. I am making cold kits--Lip balm, making tea blends from herbs from my garden, and hankies. I might add some local honey.
Let’s go!👊🏾
