During his two decades in the New Jersey Senate, Tom Kean Jr. consistently opposed paid sick leave for his constituents.

Tom Kean Jr. sought help for depression. He hasn’t made it easy for others to do the same.
The lawmaker spent nearly two decades voting against paid leave.

In a 5-4 decision, the Supreme Court has ruled that states CAN count absentee ballots that arrive after Election Day (as long as they are properly postmarked). Roberts and Barrett joined with the liberals.

The Court ruled 6-3 along partisan lines. Roberts, who delivered the opinion, wrote: "Although it is up to the Senate to decide whether to confirm those with whom the President would prefer to work...Subordinates who exercise the President’s power are subject to removal by him." Full story:

I cannot understand why any country would ever agree to negotiations with Trump, who routinely violates every agreement he makes. Whether it is violating newly-made trade agreements or violating his own Iran cease fire agreement. Trump began threatening Iran within 60 seconds of agreeing not to.

Congrats to Julie K. Brown! She was awarded a #Pulitzer Prize special citation today for her groundbreaking reporting in 2017 & 2018 for the Miami Herald exposing Jeffrey Epstein's systematic abuse of young women and the justice system & powerful network of associates that protected him for years.
A powerful narrative portrait of Julie K. Brown, the Miami Herald investigative journalist celebrated for her "Perversion of Justice" series, which exposed the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein and led to her 2026 Pulitzer Prize special citation. Brown sits in the heart of a newsroom, leaning forward with her hands clasped over the back of a vibrant lime-green chair. Her expression is steady and resolute, a faint, knowing smile playing on her lips. She has shoulder-length, strawberry-blonde hair and wears a crisp, white short-sleeved linen top. Her look is punctuated by bold, artistic accessories: a long necklace featuring large, multi-colored geometric beads and matching statement earrings. The background is filled with the tools of her trade: Dell computer monitors and large wall-mounted screens displaying blurred news segments, including one featuring her own likeness. The composition is balanced and centered, capturing a mood of quiet authority and tireless determination. This image stands as a tribute to Brown’s historical significance in journalism, marking her as a champion for victims whose reporting forced a global reckoning on power and systemic failure.

Trump's decision (two weeks into his ill-considered war) to bomb Iran's Kharg island makes no sense at first, but if you think about it, there is a reason to the mad king's actions. By destroying a major oil terminal, Trump is ensuring that Putin will continue to enjoy massive inflows of cash.

I don't think you have to Nostradamus to figure that bombing Iran might raise oil prices. And it seems pretty obvious that buying oil in advance of causing an oil price spike might just save Americans a lot of money. But... ...maybe there wasn't much planning?
