This summer, I worked with colleagues across the aisle to send an ‘SOS’ call to Save Ocean Sensors—and we WON! These critical sensors are essential for managing our fisheries, forecasting weather, and understanding climate change, and we saved them!

The story is always about CBS 'News' but the second Colbert flipped the switch on his last show, I removed CBS from my tv guide. I'm grandfathering in Elsbeth and except for an occassional special, I'm done with CBS. Period.

Saturday's episode was better than the premier but since the premier was so bad, I don't blame people for not tuning into Saturday's.

You may have just sparked a new activity for me during the upcoming cold, wet, dreary winter months. I always make a big deal out of me cooking or baking something new and I always feel so proud of myself after. Thank you for the ideas! 😊

Jim Bakker, the TV preacher brought down by sex and financial scandals, has died at 86. He and his then-wife, Tammy Faye Bakker, built a televangelism empire that ended in a spectacular collapse of greed, scandal, and excess.

Trump's people are using blue curtains to hide empty seats at this evening's rally in Grand Island, Nebraska. Those accurate reports of poor turnout in Ohio and Alabama *really* got under his skin.

Just a reminder: Tillis persuaded the woman Hegseth allegedly raped to come forward with her story, and told her that if she did, it would sink the nomination. She did. At great risk to herself. Tillis then cast the deciding vote for Hegseth. Because he’s a goddamned coward.

What will the Court do to us this term? It’s already taken away Roe v. Wade, given Trump a pass from prosecution for January 6, and permitted partisan gerrymanders. How much worse can it get? This term, there are some distinctly unpleasant possibilities. joycevance.substack.com/p/the-week-a...

THIS is why you vote early, folks. Things happen, often unexpectedly. You never know if you are going to be sidelined on Election Day by an illness, a death in the family, a surprise work shift, or a flat tire. So vote early. And let’s all wish Bill a full and speedy recovery.

AI isn't reliable enough to get even a hamburger order right, but reckless Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is pushing to expand artificial intelligence across the U.S. military, including AI-enabled targeting. "Would you like fries with that obliterated girls' school?"
