#ProudBlue The deadly fungus behind the real-life disease aspergillosis is spreading—and scientists say global warming could make it a worldwide threat in the coming decades. Just what we need as our ignorant, evil authoritarian leaders gut our healthcare & research departments.

The Trumpites are on the warpath about Biden's "autopen" — that he didn't actually sign orders. Trump has no idea what he is signing. Anyone who has dealt with declining relatives knows the way you could amuse them by letting them think they are doing big things. The difference in this case ...

NEWS: Labor Party has won Australia's national elections today, defeating their conservative opponents. So Labor will continue leading the country for a second term. The right was leading in the polls in 2024 and early 2025, when the lead reversed — in part due to Trump, just like in Canada.

New in PN: Arresting judges is a 5-alarm escalation "It’s not just that Dugan was arrested, but how she was arrested. The whole point was to cause a scene. There’s no allegation she was attempting to evade arrest, but the FBI still forced a sitting judge to do a perp walk at her place of work."

Last weekend in Chicago, 1500 historians gathered for the Organization of American Historians' conference where leading scholars discussed little things like, oh, the fate of democracy. I guess if we add some horny Nazis next year maybe CNN will come out and listen to what we have to say?

The President’s unprecedented Executive Order yesterday targeting Messrs. Chris Krebs and Miles Taylor for nothing but the exercise of their First Amendment rights is the President’s most constitutionally corrupt Executive Order to date.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

Oh good, we have troops deployed to take “back” the Panama Canal from the Chinese who don’t actually control the Panama Canal. Because the Panamanians do. Just another day of “winning” in the upside-fucking-down.

The House made it so privileged resolutions to cancel the February tariffs were no longer privileged, but they didn't do it for all national emergencies used to impose tariffs. So House Dems could introduce this one and expect a vote in 18 days (for now).

Buying a president is a good investment when the return is so high on the back end. We have to get money out of politics or working people will keep getting SCREWED.

To explain: A 10 percent tariff is levied on imports from all countries in the world, and additional duties apply to the 60 "worst violators." By the way, the russian Federation is not on the "additional" list; it is subject to a 10 percent tariff.
