"According to Pratt's account, as described by the sources, Pratt told Trump he believed Australia should start buying its submarines from the United States, to which an excited Trump -- "leaning" toward Pratt as if to be discreet -- then told Pratt two pieces of information about U.S. submarines: the supposed exact number of nuclear warheads they routinely carry, and exactly how close they supposedly can get to a Russian submarine without being detected."
@hapbt Trumpization of Congress, We, I blame #Trump but he is just the catalyst, the symptom of the disease that has infected the National body. Many of us feel that Democracy no longer serves “Me”. Consequently, Congress is suffering an infection of Fool’d Ya patriots, giving lip service to the Constitution, while knifing it and Democracy in the back, hoping you don’t notice, or are in on the conversion to the #MAGA white supremacy, fascist fantasy.
NEW: Alabama will have a new congressional map for its 2024 elections. Black voters in the state, for the first time, will have the opportunity to elect representatives of their choosing in two districts (2 and 7). https://www.lawdork.com/p/alabama-new-congressional-map-order
The Big Q&A With Ruth Ben-Ghiat, by @GeorgeTakei https://open.substack.com/pub/thinkbigpicture/p/big-questions-answers-ruth-ben-ghiat
Excellent and disturbing reporting this morning on #NPR about the sad history of #ClimateChange and our inability to cope. First there was decades of the denial, but now recognized as a real issue, threatening us and the planet, we face hard core resistance to any effective solution, even death threats to scientists who tell it like it is. Locked into our economies, and refusal to face reality, makes me very sad. I think we have fucked ourselves. 😢
@RollingStone The final #GOP straw for the #GOP dropped in 2016 when they managed to elect a professional crook and sociopath as POTUS. Their bid to hold power and push effectively a death wish for the Democratic Republic known as the #USA. 😢

This is #ThanksgivingWeekend in #Canada. Deeply grateful to live in a beautiful, bountiful country. Thankful to those who harvest, to those who gently care for our lands and communities, to those who distribute to others in need, and who just care for one another.

#Trump and classified Sub Secrets. So reckless and damaging 1) Should be disqualified from holding any Federal position.. The man is a freaking Russian mole. 2) Any military person who acted so cavalierly would be locked up and labeled traitorous.
3) The US is a country that specializes in double standards especially when prominent assholes are accused.

@samlitzinger The mentioned standard, a great opportunity for the average disgruntled citizen to go out in a blaze of infamy. 😳
@samlitzinger Does it prevent concussions? 🤔
#Mexico President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador rejects the Biden administration's plans to build new sections of wall at the border, telling reporters: "This authorization for the construction of the wall is a step backwards." He is to hold talks today with Secretary of State Antony Blinken and other senior US officials in Mexico City.
