Reporter: You received a letter from AG Pam Bondi making several demands….

Walz: I would just give a pro tip to the AG. There's 2 million documents in the Epstein files we're still waiting on. Go ahead and work on those

JACK SMITH: β€œI have seen how the rule of law can erode. My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it.”

COLBERT, on the so-called β€œBoard of Peace”:

Jens-Frederik Nielsen, Prime Minister of Greenland: First of all, nobody other than Greenland and the Kingdom of Denmark have the mandate to make deals or agreements about Greenland and the Kingdom of Denmark without us. That’s not going to happen.

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

Seems like that Gmail thing isn't true but maybe there's a lesson here about what happens when you keep turning new features on by default and you make it difficult or impossible to turn them off, and also what happens when you lump useful machine learning in with forced slop under the "AI" label

The image is a Facebook post by Billy Bragg. The post is dated November 7 at 3:23 AM. It discusses the appearance of a trans woman on a quiz show called "Only Connect" and the subsequent backlash from anti-trans activists on social media. The post criticizes the actions of these activists, who attacked a contestant for her gender identity. The post elaborates on Victoria Coren's response, describing it as a subtle yet powerful vendetta against critics. The author emphasizes that the issue isn't about protecting women from men in vulnerable spaces but rather about eradicating trans people. Furthermore, the post argues that the involvement of trans women in such shows should be normalized and that the outrage from critics is overblown. The author encourages support for trans rights, reflecting on historical support given to the gay and lesbian communities in the past.

The image shows a text excerpt discussing Abigail Spanberger, a Democrat candidate, who won the governor race in Virginia. Despite her opponent criticizing her support for LGBTQ and trans rights, she secured over 50% of the votes. The text mentions other local races where anti-trans and anti-LGBTQ candidates lost, including school board races in Texas and the election of Pennsylvania's first openly trans mayor. Additionally, 30 out of 31 anti-trans β€œMoms for Liberty” candidates were defeated. The message concludes with a hopeful sentiment for trans and non-binary individuals, emphasizing togetherness in overcoming homophobia and transphobia.

The image shows a Twitter exchange between Graham Linehan and Victoria Coren. Graham asks Victoria if "Emily" should be allowed in women's sports and spaces, questioning the safety of female-only shelters and crisis centers. Victoria responds firmly, stating that nothing will appease his persistent questioning and urges him to stop. She mentions their previous friendly relationship and acknowledges the brilliance of his writing, yet asks him to leave her alone. She emphasizes that if Graham continues, he should stop, as he must be better than this. Victoria's reply has received 1,600 retweets and 14,000 likes.

Billy Bragg taking a stand for common sense and basic human decency. Be like Billy.
Billy making the point that angry men think nothing of harassing women in the name of *checks notes* women's rights.

Mike Johnson continues to deny them representation because their duly elected representative has pledged to sign the petition to release the Epstein files.

Rep. Rich McCormick dismisses a Washington Post poll showing Americans are blaming Republicans for the shutdown: "Polling is not very accurate because the pollsters generally get out of it what they want. I don't trust those polls."

Today, I'm signing legislationΒ to safeguard our elections and the voice of every voter.

It's now illegal to use contests or payments to get people to register to vote.

And in the 2026 election, voters have the chance to repeal our state's ban on the public financing of elections.
