Taking advantage of the rare snow in south Alabama, we made a nonbinary Turkish snow person.

Don’t ever be lulled into thinking that ‘pro-choice’ states are immune from doing scary shit. And boy oh boy is this story scary.
Excerpted from my newsletter:

Bill Clinton banned assault weapons in 1994; mass shootings dropped by 43%.
George W. Bush and the GOP let the assault weapons ban expire in 2004; mass shootings increased by 245%.
These numbers tell the whole story.

#Quebec just started unionizing the Amazon warehouses.
So Amazon is closing them so they can subcontract to gig worker delivery companies.
Those Canadians were on their way to stable, dignified jobs.
Now Amazon is there holding up the decapitated head of Quebec workers, waving it around for other jurisdictions to get a look at.
It's time for government intervention.

Trump lifted sanctions against Israeli settlers in the West Bank. Within hours, Netanyahu launched a new invasion. https://theintercept.com/2025/01/22/trump-israel-settlers-west-bank-sanctions/
My cat's not such a bad guy. He rescued this little fellah from the snow and cold and brought him in the house.
So we have gotten a record snow fall here in south Alabama. While it's no big deal to Yankee defectors like me, so many people here have never seen snow before.

My daughter just pointed out that, according to the White House's gender definitions, we are all female.
Went out for a short walk. None of the neighbor kids have ever seen snow before.

A snippet from Marc Elias’s newsletter:
“ Donald #Trump is not clever. He is not smart. He is not playing chess or even checkers. He was the kid who stewed over the fact that he lost at tic-tac-toe. He is just a particular type of liar who excels at giving his supporters the lies they want.”

Reupping: I laid out a LOT of what would be in Jack Smith's Volume Two. Cannon claims there's a lot more that hasn't been released (but she's misrepresenting that DOJ said they would redacted a lot).
It sounds like there's a lot of surveillance footage.

Everything.

Newsmax's Judge Napolitano says #Trump's executive order to end birthright citizenship is "a very troublesome thing he wants to do," adding "if he can nullify that portion of the Constitution, what else can he nullify."

Capitol police should resign en masse.
I know that's not an easy thing, but how do you continue to work for people who don't value your life? I couldn't do it.
Private security should be a booming industry right now.
Snow on the Gulf Coast. Just enough to remind me why I left the north.

@dukepaaron There is no ethical framework that could justify such actions from an individual who claims to have morals.

Among the #ExecutiveOrders #Trump signed today was an order restoring the federal #DeathPenalty — although President #Biden commuted the death sentences of all but three of the prisoners who were on the federal death row. Trump’s order also #mandates the use of the death penalty in any case where someone is convicted of murdering a law enforcement officer [unless it’s Brian Sicknick apparently] or if an #undocumented migrant is convicted of a crime that is eligible for the death penalty.
I don't remember the last time I stayed up this late, but Ohio State is making it worthwhile. Go Bucks!
