If only the entire Democratic Party spoke every single day the way Jamie Raskin is speaking to Pam Bondi right now.

As a dedicated record collector for many years, one of my most loved genres is black gospel; my preference is early, "real" stuff, which is always the best. Love the Savoy Records catalog, the funkier 1970s era, and the traditional Jubilee style quartets. I'm thankful recordings like this exist.

I just can't stomach the base glorification of the Maduro extraction by the media... "Daring" "Stunning" etc.... how about "Illegal" "Corrupt" etc...?

Is there anything more satisfying to a record collector than adding shelf space and then rearranging your records? Got two new shelf units off Marketplace tonight and already put them in the spot I had left, where they fit perfectly.

I lost my job, my kids have measles, and my town is flooded with cocaine now that Trump pardoned all the traffickers. But at least the State Department is using Times New Roman again.

On the plus side, does this mean that the House will have to come back in session to vote on opening the govt back up (approving the Senate plan), and could that mean they finally have to swear in Rep-elect Grijalva?

This is not a big beautiful bill–This is one of the cruelest bills we’ve seen in our country’s history, and it’s going to decimate Iowa. People are going to die because of this bill. But it won’t be Joni Ernst and her rich friends. It will be our families, our friends, and our neighbors.

I'd much rather talk about the terrible job our current administration is doing than discuss the health concerns of a former president. How about you?

It’s not just about blocking votes. Cory Booker’s filibuster forces the conversation into the spotlight. Whether you agree w/him or not, he’s using every tool available to fight for what he believes in—that’s exactly what leaders should be doing. Quite frankly, Schumer should have before the CR.

Corey Booker is at around 12 hours plus, now, on this speech. There are 17,000 viewers this morning. Don't say this doesn't matter, because it certainly does. Shifting sands have to start with a single grain of sand before they become a sandstorm, and this is a start. To what, we'll see.

If I was the Democratic Party, I would have planned to get one member at a time tossed out throughout this speech, until the chamber was only sycophants. Would have been a powerful symbolic message, unlike stupid stick signs. Would have also been a delicious distraction to the speaker...

Kevin Oliver @kevingoliver.bsky.social · 11/02/2025

Something I haven't really seen any analysis on is what will happen with all this government spending cut via shutting down various departments, grants, etc... People don't realize what a huge chunk of the economy the federal government is, and how much extra juice that injects into the numbers.
