The United States added only 22,000 jobs in August in a Bureau of Labor Statistics report issued Friday morning. The August jobs increase was the lowest for that month since 2010 in the aftermath of the Great Recession. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2025/09/08/r...

"DC is the testing ground and we need you to help them fail their tests," one speaker said.

Marjorie, I know the truth confuses you and facts ain’t your strong suit—so let me break it down real slow: George Floyd didn’t die from drugs. He died because Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for 9 minutes. That’s called murder.

The chief justice is shocked, shocked! to find there's gambling in Casablanca.

The Chief Justice helped create this disaster. He needs to help fix it.

According to Trump, U.S. kids only need one or two dolls and apparently he only needs one luxury private jet from a foreign government 🫶

"Under the annual appropriations act, lawmakers are permitted to enter 'any facility operated by or for DHS used to detain or otherwise house aliens.' The law is clear that members of Congress are not required 'to provide prior notice of intent to enter a facility'..." www.cnn.com/2025/05/10/p...

I'm at the library and I love it. You should go to the library.

I got no clues, but yeah?

I'm tired of all this winning.

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

"He has endeavored to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands."

"Stupid and dangerous" is a profound understatement. The problem with Hanlon's Razor ("never ascribe to malice...") is that it lets malice get away with disguising itself as stupidity.

"Bivins said that the database deletion is likely just the beginning of cuts that are to come if libraries are not fully funded."

Po. Lice. State.

Some good may come of it?

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

Great piece by Scott Woods in @matternews.bsky.social on the importance of libraries.

"It’s stunning, and this is coming at a time when the good work done to improve cybersecurity in the United States is under extraordinary pressures, both to limit the regulatory gains and insight, and also just the resources to go after this." A weaker US allows more Trump grift & corruption.

So the stock market has lost over $9 TRILLION in value since the Jan 20 inauguration. How's your 401k and your IRA doing? Ya know what hasn't lost ANY value since then? Your SOCIAL SECURITY account. Don't let them gut it. Don't let them claim privatizing it will somehow improve it.

Thank you Mina for speaking up and out when you have the platform!

I can’t believe this has to be said, but: You cannot tell the story of Jackie Robinson—as a ballplayer, serviceman, or human—without discussing our country’s history of racism. From Around the Horn:

The secretary of transportation went on Fox & Friends this morning and trashed air travel, portraying the current air traffic control system as a disaster, and then claimed taking public transit is "dangerous." I miss the DEI days when it was safe to travel.

i wonder if maybe we should stop writing post-apocalyptic fiction just until we're sure that's not where rich people are getting their ideas

“President i voted for you, but since then you've cut to many Gov jobs to fast. OPM has screwed up my wife's retirement momey after 30+ years of faithful service & we haven't gotten her retirement for a MONTH. What the hell is going on!!!” #LeopardsAteMyFace

I can’t think of anything that would hurt MAGA more. Especially their political pastors.
