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?”

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.”

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

Susan SH re: Body and Soul - we had some laughs and we had some cringes. Yeah you can tell that they're both definitely glad that's over with!

"Body and Soul is done and I think that’s what sent Ron away." ^ Quotes from this Fairman interview:

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.

Here's an article that describes exactly what was in the video: https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/donald-trump-bronx-new-york-city-immigration-inflation/

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.

In Roman Catholic Ireland, abortion is legal. Ireland recently had a gay leader. The problem in the USA is the unChristian definition of Christianity.

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

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.)

@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

Excerpts from Kamala's speech today (sections bolded by me) So let me say, my heart is full today. My heart is full today. Full of gratitude. For the trust you have placed in me. Full of love for our country. And full of resolve. The outcome of this election is not what we wanted. Not what we fought for. Not what we voted for. But hear me when I say, hear me when I say. The light of America's promise will always burn bright, as long as we never give up, and as long as we keep fighting. Now, I know folks are feeling and experiencing a range of emotions right now. I get it. But we must accept the results of this election. Earlier today I spoke with President-Elect Trump and congratulated him on his victory. I also told him that we will help him and his team with their transition. And that we will engage in a peaceful transfer of power. A fundamental principle of American democracy is that when we lose an election, we accept the results. That principle, as much as any other, distinguishes democracy from monarchy or tyranny. And anyone who seeks the public trust must honor it. At the same time, in our nation we owe loyalty not to a president or a party, but to the Constitution of the United States. And loyalty to our conscience and to our God. My allegiance to all three is why I am here to say, while I concede this election, I do not concede the fight that fueled this campaign. The fight, the fight for freedom, for opportunity, for fairness and the dignity of all people. A fight for the ideals at the heart of our nation, the ideals that reflect America at our best. That is a fight I will never give up. will never give up the fight for a future where Americans can pursue their dreams, ambitions and aspirations, where the women of America have the freedom to make decisions about their own body and not have their government telling them what to do. We will never give up the fight to protect our schools and our streets from gun violence. And America, we will never give up the fight for our democracy, for the rule of law, for equal justice, and for the sacred idea that every one of us, no matter who we are or where we start out, has certain fundamental rights and freedoms that must be respected and upheld. And we will continue to wage this fight in the voting booth, in the courts, and in the public square. And we will also wage it in quieter ways. In how we live our lives. By treating one another with kindness and respect, by looking in the face of a stranger and seeing a neighbor. By always using our strength to lift people up, to fight for the dignity that all people deserve. The fight for our freedom will take hard work, but like I always say, we like hard work. Hard work is good work. Hard work can be joyful work. And the fight for our country is always worth it. It is always worth it. To the young people who are watching, it is ok to feel sad and disappointed. But please know it's going to be ok. On the campaign I would often say, when we fight, we win. But here's the thing, here's the thing. Sometimes the fight takes a while. That doesn't mean we won't win. That doesn't mean we won't win. The important thing is don't ever give up. Don't ever give up. Don't ever stop trying to make the world a better place. You have power. You have power. And don't you ever listen when anyone tells you something isn't possible because it has never been done before. You have the capacity to do extraordinary good in the world. And so to everyone who is watching, do not despair. This is not a time to throw up our hands. This is a time to roll up our sleeves. This is a time to organize, to mobilize, and to stay engaged for the sake of freedom and justice and the future that we all know we can build together. Look, many of you know I started out as a prosecutor, and throughout my career I saw people at some of the worst times in their lives. People who had suffered great harm and great pain. And yet found within themselves the strength and the courage and the resolve to take the stand, to take a stand. To fight for justice, to fight for themselves, to fight for others. So let their courage be our inspiration. Let their determination be our charge. And I'll close with this. There's an adage an historian once called a law of history – true of every society across the ages. The adage is: only when it is dark enough can you see the stars. I know many people feel like we are entering a dark time. But for the benefit of us all, I hope that is not the case. But here's the thing. America, if it is, let us fill the sky with the light of a brilliant, brilliant billion of stars. The light, the light of optimism, of faith, of truth and service. And may that work guide us even in the face of setbacks toward the extraordinary promise of the United States of America.
