The Politics Thread
Military officials discussing how to respond to illegal orders under Trump Officials at the Pentagon are having informal discussions about what to do if Donald Trump were to give an illegal order, such as deploying the military domestically, CNN reports. They are also preparing for the possibility that he may change rules to be able to fire scores of career civil servants. On the campaign trail, Trump has mulled sending the military after his political enemies, and also to turn back migrants at the southern border. US law generally prohibits active-duty troops from being deployed for law enforcement purposes. There are also fears he could gut the civil service in the Pentagon, and replace fired staff with employees selected for their loyalty to him. Here’s more, from CNN: https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/08/politics/pentagon-officials-discussing-trump/index.html Trump has suggested he would be open to using active-duty forces for domestic law enforcement and mass deportations and has indicated he wants to stack the federal government with loyalists and “clean out corrupt actors” in the US national security establishment. Officials are now gaming out various scenarios as they prepare for an overhaul of the Pentagon. “We are all preparing and planning for the worst-case scenario, but the reality is that we don’t know how this is going to play out yet,” one defense official said. Trump’s election has also raised questions inside the Pentagon about what would happen if the president issued an unlawful order, particularly if his political appointees inside the department don’t push back. “Troops are compelled by law to disobey unlawful orders,” said another defense official. “But the question is what happens then – do we see resignations from senior military leaders? Or would they view that as abandoning their people?”

DAYS: Head Writer Ron Carlivati Departing Peacock Soap After Seven Years
Nov. 8, 2024: Stephanie Sloane for TVInsider interviews Ken Corday: https://www.tvinsider.com/1160938/days-of-our-lives-future-peacock-changes-2025/ Regarding Carlvati, Corday notes, “I just felt it was time for a different look at the show, a different foundation for the show, and a different story push. Our previous head writer had a wonderful, long run, but change is a constant and sometimes change is called for and this was a case where it was clear to me it was.”

Y&R: November 2024 Discussion Board
I post IGs at SON with the "embed code". I don't see the bleeding on this page of this thread. The costume designer's embedded IG isn't bleeding through to the next SON post. But I have seen the bleeding occur at other times on other SON threads, even recently, as mentioned on the support thread regarding this issue. But I cannot pinpoint a pattern as to why or when it happens. It's not a cache issue. it's a real thing. I'm on a Windows P.C. Maybe it just doesn't happen on your device. It previously happened for me when *reading* SON on my ancient Windows 7 P.C. with old out-of-date browsers. But not all the time. Now it happens for me when *reading* SON on my brand new Windows 10 P.C. with current updated browsers. But not all the time. We could discuss this further on the support thread. Back to @Faulkner's question above. It seems that the costume designer's IG embed works to quote without breaking the SON thread. Don't know why but it works fine.

https://apnews.com/article/pennsylvania-house-2024-election-frank-burns-johnstown-1fb3477611874bb4e4409c6452681e5f Pennsylvania state legislature: Democrats retained majority control of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives on Friday by holding onto a Johnstown area district, giving them just enough votes to keep the speakership and determine the chamber’s voting agenda. The win by incumbent Rep. Frank Burns is the final House race to be called in a year when none of the 203 districts are changing hands. It gave Democrats a 102-101 margin and dashed Republican hopes of returning to control after two years in the minority.

The thing is, the "bleeding IG" situation sometimes happens even if the post isn't quoted. Sometimes the original SON post containing an embedded IG will bleed into next post.

Oh, you want to quote a SON post that includes an embedded IG, but avoid this happening: (Link to issue described on support thread) Well gosh, I don't know. At the top of *this page* of this SON thread, I posted Mandi Line's costume closet reel instagram post... and under Mandi's IG reel, I included me typing out the text that's already within her IG, (all of that within my same SON board post). On the fourth post of this page, @Liberty City quoted my SON post and it worked okay. At least it seems to be displaying okay. Perhaps it worked fine because of all the typed text I included in my own SON post. Perhaps it worked fine because LC posted a great deal of their own commentary words underneath their quoting of my SON post. So even if something was going to overlap, maybe all the typed text from both of us stretched out LC's post to avoid it? Or maybe the weird "IG bleeding into following post" is a random thing and we don't know when/how/why it happens.

https://www.instagram.com/mandiline/p/DB5g2wkOqf1/ mandiline (costume designer Mandi Line) November 2, 2024 I heard #soapoperas were huge.. and ALOT of work… nothing could be bigger than my “huge episodic shows” I said to myself ….. I had to shoot what one day looks like on @youngandrestlesscbs ! All of these clothes are what works this upcoming episode. Had to share, maybe to share joy and hope, and to all those in this sad climate of no work I get it I feel you I lived it and this is no cake ride… and still just surviving, we all are. I had to share how hard we work. What I also didn’t know was how amazing this show would be. How special the cast is and how hard working my team is. We do not stop, this train does not stop. These actors do up to 80 pages a day! and also do not stop. I barely know them yet I’m so blown away by each one of them. I’ve never seen a cast learn so many lines.. then again and again. They do fittings again and again… and DO NOT COMPLAIN. Yep… and they’ve been doing this for twenty years or more. Such great role models they are. I never thought in 30 years I’d be teaching and learning so much and how grateful am I. And how I get to do what I do best… bring the fire the modern and the aspirational. My body is dead 😆 but heart is happy. Here we go team…. It all starts again Monday! @youngandrestlesscbs can’t wait for TUES… COSTUMES WILL SHINE (literally) it’s that time of year! 🎉 #youngandtherestless #soaps #soapoperas #costumedesign- The Politics Thread

It will be up at this link tonight or early tomorrow morning. You'd need a VPN from outside Canada https://watch.globaltv.com/series/32666602 You'd want to wait for episode labeled "Nov/07/2024" to be uploaded. That's the one that airs Nov. 7 Canada and Nov. 8 USA.- The Politics Thread

I watched that youtube before it was deleted. Some of the Bronx voters had changed from voting for Biden in 2020 to voting for tr*mp in 2024. The video showed citizens of one Bronx district/neighborhood discussing their reasoning.- The Politics Thread

Washington Post claimed they weren't endorsing a candidate, but we all knew it was due to corporate greed. Jeff Bezos tweeted this at 10:29am EDT on the morning after the election. Screenshot of his tweet is behind the spoiler tag because I felt that it was too offensive to post outright -- Bezos is congratulating tr*mp very enthusiastically. https://x.com/JeffBezos/status/1854184441511571765- The Politics Thread
Interview with a psychologist about the very real feelings of grief and anger we are experiencing about the election results, honoring those feelings, we shouldn't have to "get over it", that these feelings will continue, and how to not be paralyzed by it, but instead take real action. My description isn't doing it justice, so just read: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/election-grief-is-real-heres-how-to-cope/ (edit to add: they give a variety of interesting examples of "action" and "activity", including small simple-yet-meaningful personal actions of kindness, stretching one's limitations/perceptions by doing things differently, as well as larger political action. I found their list helpful, as I was too paralyzed to think of most of it.)- The Politics Thread
@TEdgeofNight we're all suffering here. no need to cast aspersions on anyone's hopefulness. put the blame where it belongs, on tr*mp and his ilk- Your daily (or nightly) thought
