.@MichaelSteele unloads on Republicans suddenly second-guessing Trump after the midterm wipeout, warning they can’t spend a decade enabling him and then pretend they had nothing to do with it: “Shut the fuck up; I don’t want to hear that shit from you.”

Russia is at war with Ukrainian kindergartens. This is what remains of a kindergarten in Kyiv after Russia’s overnight attack. 58 children will now have to be relocated to another facility. Ukraine’s children deserve more than sympathy - they deserve protection, and the world must not look away. We urge everyone to put more pressure on Russia now to save more lives in the future

Yesterday was a big win for America’s health. The following doctors and nurses won their elections: Senate • Dr. Annie Andrews (MD, pediatrician) - South Carolina • Dr. Abdul El-Sayed (MD, epidemiologist & former Detroit health director) - Michigan Governor • Dr. Amy Acton (MD, MPH, former Ohio health director) - won Ohio House • Dr. Richard Pan (MD, MPH, pediatrician) - California • Dr. Adam Hamawy (MD, surgeon) - New Jersey • Dr. John Cowan (MD, neurosurgeon) - Georgia • Mitchell Berman (RN, ER nurse) - Wisconsin • Kristina Knickerbocker (APRN-CNP, neuro-oncology nurse practitioner & Air Force veteran) - Ohio Plus reelected nurses Lauren Underwood (IL) and Sheri Biggs (SC), and several physician incumbents who held their seats. Health care professionals just got a much louder voice in our country.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ 🩺 🇺🇸

UPDATE—The ICE agent in this video violently attacking a U.S. citizen has been arrested for child sex crimes. Kent Blacklidge was charged with rape, sexual abuse, and incest involving a juvenile. His job for ICE was investigating child exploitation cases.
ICE wrestled Alabama worker to the ground & detain him for hours—he is a U.S. citizen. Young man was begging & shouting, "I am a U.S. citizen"—but that didn't stop ICE agents from dragging him off to a detention center. Not following due process hurts us all—and our economy. His family said that ICE agents did release him after he was finally given the opportunity to prove he was a U.S. citizen—but only after many hours. This construction site in Foley, Alabama was forced to shut down for at least the day. How many other businesses were affected? #DemVoice1 #wtpBLUE #DemsUnited

Sam Darnold suffered a cracked rib on the 2nd play of the game Monday night, according to Mike Macdonald. Here is Sam's second play (which was his first dropback).

Important people know the backstory of this ad. @patrickgaspard gave me the idea to take her inexcusable gaffe and do something edgy with it that could get attention. My content creator, @RyanSayles_ directed and edited it. He should be considered the breakout-star of this cycle. He’s going to be a giant in the media consultant game. He did GAME CHANGING work with SO little.
She done lost her damn mind.

In 1860, an enslaved man named Sheppard Peek was listed among the possessions of William Peek, a white man in Crawfordville. More than a century and a half later, Sheppard’s great-great-granddaughter has been elected governor of Georgia. ajc.com/politics/2026/11/kei…
