Trying to think of some other policy areas where we should expect similar moves. *ever-more-brutal immigration enforcement *crackdown on nonprofit status of left groups *more press bans and FCC actions against news outlets *another round of tariffs *bogus charges in "grand conspiracy" case

They're holding up a major escalation in Iran and a crackdown on abortion until after the midterms to limit political damage. To the extent that the last two years have been a right-wing smash-and-grab operation, the next two will be worse.

“BE ASHAMED!” Chief Justice John Roberts Shunned By Maine Neighbors As Kayak Protesters Surround His Private Retreat!
Chief Justice John Roberts, known for his pivotal role in recent Supreme Court decisions, finds himself at the center of a growing backlash in his longtime summer retreat in Maine. Once warmly welcomed by the community on Hupper Island, Roberts now faces protests and social distancing from his neighbors, who are punctuating their discontent with visible dissent. For over two decades, Roberts has enjoyed the serenity of his coastal Maine home.

The average data center in Ohio or Michigan is over 200 acres. That's huge. Light and noise pollution is intolerable. Water usage is huge. And NONE of our 50 governors live next to one. No senators. No congressmen. There are no data centers next to Mar-a-Lago. They expect YOU to live next to them.

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

And so it continues... Our economic debates seem utterly disconnected from the reality. That reality: This is an economy mostly creating healthcare jobs, and it does so month after month, and everything else is just noise.
Line chart titled "Effectively all of the net job creation has been in healthcare and social assistance, and jobs are shrinking in the rest of the economy" showing change in non-farm payrolls since January 2025 through September 2026. Healthcare and social assistance added 998,000 jobs with consistent growth throughout the period, while the rest of the economy lost 222,000 jobs, meaning all net job creation came from healthcare. The rest of the economy showed particular weakness from May through August 2025 when losses reached 218,000 jobs. This striking divergence reveals an unusual concentration where one sector's growth of roughly 48,000 jobs per month has offset persistent contraction across all other industries combined.

The Trump administration's scare tactics ahead of the midterms have hit a usual refrain: "migrant caravan." In reality, it's about 600 people (mostly families) who are 1,000 miles from the border. Just when gas prices keep climbing, Trump world is looking for a distraction. This is their attempt.

For instance, they had to try on clothes over their clothes, put on protective covers when trying on hats, or weren't allowed to make returns once they brought the clothes home. These policies stemmed from racist fears that white customers would refuse merchandise previously worn by Black shoppers.
Department Store, Mobile, Alabama, 1956

By Gordon Parks

Promised gift of The Gordon Parks FoundationJoanne Wilson, one of the Thorntons’ daughters, is shown standing with her niece in front of a department store in downtown Mobile. The pair is impeccably dressed in light, summery frocks. The jarring neon of the “Colored Entrance” sign looming above them clashes with the two young women’s elegant appearance, transforming a casual afternoon outing into an example of overt discrimination. Notice the fallen strap of Wilson’s slip. Though this detail might appear discordant with the rest of the picture, its inclusion may have been strategic: it allowed Parks to emphasize the humanity of his subjects.

Today's jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy. What's required is investment in working people — and better wages. When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs. Remember this.
