    So the Texas GOP may be caught in their own Heffalump Trap with their redistricting.

    And for some reason Box-wine Jeanine has a fondness for dressing up like a Holstein. Or is that a Halloween costume?

      190. SNAP WTF? A very quick explainer on why Justice Jackson issued an “administrative stay” in the SNAP case late on Friday night, and on what’s
      likely to happen next https://www.stevevladeck.com/p/190-snap-wtf
      Steve Vladeck Nov 07, 2025

      Justice Jackson temporarily blocks SNAP benefits order to allow appeals court to rule DOJ asked SCOTUS for a stay as USDA said it was completing its process for making full payments. Update: Jackson’s order came a little past 9 p.m. https://www.lawdork.com/p/trump-admin-goes-to-scotus-to-try

        [THREAD] KBJ [circuit justice for CA1] threaded the needle thanks to CA1’s unfinished business.

        -if she denied the admin stay, the full SCOTUS woulda stepped in to override her.
        -if she immediately referred the case to the full Court, they coulda dragged feet.
        -instead she boxed them in to act quickly once she does refer the case. [THREAD]

        I thought that was a excellent explainer by Vladeck, although I might be hard put to convey the gist of it to my neighbor…

      Ok, thanks. Normally I avoid facebook but I remembered this hilarious video from years ago and this was the only copy I found to share.

    Turns out my younger brother and Nicole have the same birth date (not birthday, birth-date!). Here’ the limerick I sent him that morning:

    Happy 66th birthday to Marty,
    Hope you have a tumultuous party!
    If it doesn’t pan out,
    That’s no reason to pout:
    Just grab a tumbler and a fifth of Bacardi!
