Why is that Trump campaign ad being aired on @nbcnews.com with the "paid for by the US taxpayer" tagline?

The Parti Québecois, a party whose hold raison-d'être is separatism, recently said they were putting all separation talk on the backburner for the remainder of Trump's term. Do you know how insane that is? Trump healed 200 years of Franco-Anglo tensions purely by being a giant asshole.

I'm watching the NEXO Championship on Golf Channel this morning. It's being played at the Trump course in Aberdeen, Scotland and every now and then the big, beautiful, offshore wind turbines are visible in the distance.

I miss seeing Colbert on late night. I know it “wasn’t a format contemporary audiences care about” and whatever but he never phoned it in and it was always a bright spot in my day to watch his monologue.

a bill to mandate a nationwide end to partisan gerrymandering would also pair well with a bit of jurisdiction stripping, given the court's own view that partisan gerrymandering is outside of their remit

I know my post up there is not especially collegial, but when you as a professor broadcast (to the New York Times!) that you are uncomfortable when people express their identities, you create a classroom environment in which people cannot learn effectively because now they're worried about you

We need the House to pass the funding bill that funds everything but DHS and severs DHS from the rest of the package. Otherwise we lose our leverage to defund ICE.

Let’s talk about abolishing ICE. Very few people who say “abolish ICE” mean “abandon all immigration enforcement.” Rather, they mean “the structure of immigration enforcement is irretrievably broken and needs to be reorganized, just like we did 23 years ago when we created ICE.” /1

You won't get an alert on your phone when a full-blown dictatorship arrives. It happens in steps. The traitor sends a mob to sack the Capitol, gets away with it, calls for "termination" of the Constitution, lies to get re-elected and unleashes a thug army on cities. Get active before it's too late.

Damn you @nbcnews.com for making this headline look like the covid vax kills children. You are complicit in causing unnecessary future deaths by showing this RFKjr propaganda & bullshit. People: read this from the previous (sane) Director of the CDC:
statnews.com
Covid-19 vaccines protect children from severe disease. Here is the evidence
“Over and over again, Covid-19 has shown it can cause severe disease in children, disease that is preventable by a safe and effective vaccine,” writes former CDC Director Rochelle Walensky.
