It should be illegal for insurance companies to leave people in the lurch when disaster strikes. It's absolutely INSANE.

I’m sorry but the fact that Congress is about to throw immigrants under the bus at the very same time that countless immigrants in California are risking their lives to protect neighborhoods many of them could never aspire live in is breaking my brain in a whole new way.

1. IMPORTANT. The National Weather Service says that the winds in the LA area from Tuesday through Wednesday necessitate a designation of a “Particularly Dangerous Situation.” This is a very specific designation the NWS uses for weather events that pose a serious threat to life and property.
Alt-text for the image:

A weather alert graphic titled “Particularly Dangerous Situation (PDS) Red Flag Warnings” in large pink text at the top. Below the title is a bold section labeled “EXTREME RISK – Take Immediate Action” in white text over a purple background. The image warns of extreme fire danger and urges immediate precautions.

Key details include:
	•	PDS Timing: Tuesday 4 AM to Noon Wednesday.
	•	Precautionary Guidance:
	•	Do not do anything that could spark a fire.
	•	Have multiple ways to receive evacuation information.
	•	Visit fire.ca.gov/prepare to develop a wildfire action plan.

Fire Weather Information:
	•	Peak winds for the event will be weaker than those experienced last week but still strong enough to cause potentially explosive fire growth.
	•	Expected weather conditions: wind gusts between 45–70 mph, locally damaging; relative humidity at 8–15%.

Map Description:
The map focuses on Ventura and Los Angeles Counties and shows three “PDS Areas” outlined in magenta:
	1.	Ventura County Area: Includes the area near HWY 118 (Fillmore region).
	2.	Northern Los Angeles County: Along the I-5 corridor and near Santa Clarita.
	3.	Western Santa Monica Mountains: Near Thousand Oaks and extending into Woodland Hills, Porter Ranch, and San Fernando.

Cities marked include Ventura, Camarillo, Oxnard, Thousand Oaks, Woodland Hills, Burbank, and Pasadena. Major highways I-5, I-210, and HWY 126 are labeled.

A small bar at the bottom left shows a color-coded fire risk scale:
	•	Yellow: Low
	•	Orange: Moderate
	•	Red: High
	•	Purple: Extreme (indicated in this warning).

Additional Notes:
A red footer at the bottom states: “Important: Red Flag conditions (though weaker winds) are expected in other areas of Southern California.”

	•	The alert was issued by the National Weather Service Forecast Office in Los Angeles/Oxnard, CA, updated on Sunday, January 12, 2025, at 1:30 PM.

NYC firefighter unions that supported Trump and Republicans are furious at the Republican-led House of Representatives' decision to strip funding for the 9/11 healthcare program.

The Syrian revolution and the Ukrainian invasion are two of the subjects where the Nazis, Trumpers and Tankies can't tell each other apart and hold the exact same position.

The Trump ordeal has made one thing clear. Too many of our checks and balances rely on norms, traditions and the honor code. It works when those elected into power are people of honor and integrity who respect our norms and traditions. Elect a lifelong criminal and it all goes sideways.

Twitter didn't gain relevance by being the biggest platform, it gained relevancy through the quality of the content and individuals. The main goal for everyone here should be to encourage global defender, media, and establishment accounts to transition to #BlueSky. That'll provide legitimacy.

Donald Trump waits until Friday night to dump all these wildly unqualified cabinet appointee notices so the media doesn't freak out about them. That should say it all.

Enough senators were willing to stand up to Trump and oppose Gaetz to tank his nomination as AG. A small sign of hope for our country? www.nytimes.com/live/2024/11...

Matt Gaetz Withdraws From Attorney General Consideration
Mr. Gaetz has consistently denied the allegations of sexual misconduct and drug use, but his prospective nomination ran into trouble in the Senate.

At this point, democrats have to concentrate on stopping the ones that will do the most damage. Forget the distraction nominees. Focus on the serious threats. Gaetz, Gabbard and Hegseth remain the most problematic.

Based on recent scuttlebutt, it appears the Trump Crime Syndicate isn't confident they can suppress the Matt Gaetz Ethics report. They're now focused on pressuring the Senate to ignore it and confirm him anyway.

I’ve been trying to wrap my head around this feeling, this heaviness. I think it’s something like: we all know life is hard and we expect it to give us difficult challenges to face. It’s just so fucking deflating that now the life or death challenge we have to face is coming from our own government.

The New York Post editorial board on their meeting with RFK Jr: “When it came to that topic his views were a head-scratching spaghetti of what we can only call warped conspiracy theories, and not just on vaccines…In fact, we came out thinking he’s nuts on a lot of fronts.”

A lot of the positions people like RFK jr. take (anti-vax, anti-pasteurization etc.) get described as “controversial.” They’re not. There is no controversy. This is long-settled science. The correct term is “stupid.”
