She's shit. Are you still going to defend her anyway?

Backers of the bill overcame a filibuster on Wednesday with the exact number of votes needed — 33 — thanks to the support of a Democrat in the officially nonpartisan Legislature, Sen. Jane Raybould of Lincoln.

Raybould, whose family owns several grocery store chains in the state, was also the main sponsor of another bill that sought to restrict a voter-backed minimum wage law. That bill suffered an unexpected defeat earlier this session when a freshman lawmaker failed to show up for a vote on it. Raybould’s attempt to attach it to the paid sick leave measure on Wednesday also failed.

By a nearly 3-to-1 ratio, Nebraska voters in November approved a ballot measure that requires all Nebraska employers to provide at least some paid sick leave to their employees.

If that happens - he needs to give himself the nickname Justice. That way he can be Supreme Court Justice Judge "Justice" Reinhold.

TRUMP TRAIN NO BREAKS [SIC]

The next time there's space - Trump could put Kid Rock on the supreme court if he wanted to. There are no prerequisites.

whomever Trump found entertaining on Fox News this week.

I can imagine convos like the following. Our scene begins at breakfast time. A spouse is talking to their husband who is a judge.

"Honey, you know how often tell you that you could shave your mustache and get more... um... fashionable glasses?"

Irritatedly "Yes. And I've told you that I like my mustache. And my glasses."

"But you'll probably get interviewed on Fox News next week... And... Well...Trump will probably be watching."

"So?"

"So... He hates mustaches and I don't think he'll like your glasses either."

"Surely my record stands for itself. Are you actually saying I should focus on trivialities to improve my judicial standing?"

Standing their ground "Trump makes the decisions. He's very interested in how people look and that people look that they came right out of central casting. And if you want something better - you had better appeal to him."

They have a big fight. The judge says he doesn't want a bite of the "nice breakfast" and he storms out of the house in a huff. After about ten minutes as he's driving to work for his job which is clearly beneath him - he thinks that might it could be time for the mustache to go. And - what the heck - maybe it's time to get new glasses too. Looking the part might help him get the judgeship he deserves.

Whatever the democrats spend - isn't the chance of them taking the senate in 2026 absolutely remote at best.

I saw a lot of post threads with comments on Bluesky that where basically "I ride the subway and it's not perfect but..." or "I take the bus and I've seen some stuff on it but...". A lot of libs can't just say public transportation is good.

Ukrainian platoon commander: "You - British cannon fodder morons. Run forward and try to take that ridge. You're gonna die but at least it's gonna be funny."

The elderly Brits have no idea what he said because - as usual - he was speaking in Ukrainian. They look to a seemingly kindly Ukrainian chap who knows some English. "He said 'Take that ridge. It is risk but he thinks you can do.' "

There are smiles all around and the those-about-to-die pensioners start to move forward.
