I'm being harassed by the federal government because they decided my student loan repayment plan is illegal now. I have a liberal arts degree. I went to a state school, not a private college. I am gainfully employed in my field.

In 2022 I started feeling too afraid to take my son to Pride in my town. There were so many protestors and trucks and I truly felt like we were targets. This year there was a full Drag Show. Our community has come so far in the past few years.

Tim Snyder: The term that I came up with… is superpower suicide. I just can’t see an example of a major country losing so much power so quickly as the United States under Trump. We’ve encouraged our enemies and we’ve made our allies not trust us.

Just a reminder that these Haitian immigrants in Springfield -- who came here legally, did everything they were asked to do and more -- became a target of federal crackdowns because the white nationalist vice president shamelessly spread racist lies about them.

I will never forgive or forget a single Republican Senator who voted yes on RFK Jr.’s confirmation as HHS Secretary. But as you know I hold especial contempt for Bill Cassidy (R, Invertebrate) for greasing the skids for RFK Jr. and for the destruction of U.S. public health.

Literally the reason they created Fox was so what happened to Nixon could never happen to a Republican again. And it’s worked brilliantly. We’ve gotten Reagan, Bush and Trump, all plagued by scandals that would have sunk a legitimate presidency.

My local Democrat party had a booth at the festival today. They were handing out pocket constitutions. I haven't seen hopefulness like that in 20 years. Do I think West Virginia will vote blue? Probably not, but maybe a few districts will get adequate representation

One of the biggest political changes in the last two years is Democrats' belated recognition that they don't have to feel guilty about this stuff. John Roberts is bad, and he should feel bad.

Man, imagine you're minding your own business, getting kind of drunk with your friends at a picturesque brewery in Maine, when suddenly John Roberts walks by and you get to start heckling him. Must have felt incredible. That's the dream. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/01/u...
The chief justice used to preside over a Supreme Court whose members were afforded more privacy and freedom than many other public officials. Once, years ago, Mr. Lipson and the chief justice found themselves up the peninsula from Port Clyde without a car, Mr. Lipson recalled in an interview. So he stuck out his thumb by the side of the road and a pickup truck pulled over. He and the nation’s top jurist hopped in the back and hitchhiked back to town.

Now, Mr. Lipson said, he is cautious about introducing his friend to strangers. This year, on an outing to nearby Monhegan Island, people recognized the chief justice as he walked by a brewery and started to chant: You should be ashamed.
