The seafood will rock your world. There are Michelin starred restaurants in every major city AND in Doolin. Also don’t turn your nose at pub food: Guinness stew is fantastic. Fish n chips? Heck yes. I’m a foodie. Ireland rocks for food.

Life hack: Travel overseas on Thanksgiving. It’s glorious. Tickets are cheaper than domestic; European countries are full into Christmas; and YOU DONT HAVE TO COOK. 10/10. Our new routine is heading to Ireland every Turkey Day. 🇮🇪❤️🦃🚫

I'm old enough to remember this. When we moved to Texas in 1973, my mom stayed married long enough to get the mortgage, and then divorced her abusive husband. She later went to law school, by the way, as did I. But she was forced to stay married to him just so that we would have a place to live.

Democrats, keep holding townhalls in red spaces. Our Republican Reps do not come home. They do not speak to us. They do not care about us. I know this, but I need my Republican neighbors to realize it. Come talk to them. Show them. Reach them. Rural Dem organizers on the ground can help.

3 facts that should drive the news: 1) DOGE has committed, rather than found, fraud. 2) A bunch of antisemites are using a claim to police antisemitism to take over universities. 3) In spite of claims they're cracking down on China, Trump's FP & financial policies have vastly helped China.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

The best case scenario is that this is a stock shorting scheme, and in a week, there will be masterful (non-existent) "dealmaking" that removes the tariffs after the billionaires buy the dip causing a massive transfer of wealth. That's the *best* case scenario.

Tweet from David Woodruff
@dmwoodruff.bsky.social
A very old Soviet joke, from an especially dark time:
Foxes are fleeing the USSR in droves. Q: Why are you running away?
Fox: The Soviets passed a new law that they're going to arrest all camels. Q: But you're foxes!
Fox: Yeah, why don't *you* try proving to the NKVD that you're not a camel.

Under that: 
Timothy Snyder @timothysnyder.bsky.so... 3d If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.
