This is brilliant. If I could stomach it, it would be the basis for tonightβs drinking game.
For the first time in league history, the WNBA generated enough revenue in 2025 to trigger revenue sharing with players. Players will receive $8 million.
The union will also pay out $9.25 million from revenue generated from its group licensing program.

A blue background with white and orange text on it that reads, βNew Jersey has a chance not only to restore the protections stripped from the federal Voting Rights Act, but to modernize them, strengthen them, and tailor them to the stateβs unique needs. βPassing A1715 will cement New Jerseyβs status as a national leader in advancing the right to vote and will make our democracy freer, fairer, and more inclusive.β The ACLU-NJ logo is in the upper right corner and the quote is attributed to Liza Weisberg, Supervising Attorney at the ACLU-NJ. Her headshot appears.
THIS JUST IN: The John Lewis Empowerment Act has passed the Assembly State and Local Government Committee!
There is a green box with white and orange text that reads, "βNew Jersey can join other states in standing with immigrant communities and ending its role in the federal detention and deportation system. βWe call on the Legislature to vote yes on A4070/S3522 and to amend A4071/S3521 to ensure due process protections, and build on the stateβs commitment to creating a fair and welcoming community for everyone who calls New Jersey home.β The ACLU-NJ logo is in the upper right hand corner. The quote is attributed to ACLU-NJ Campaign Strategist Ami Kachalia and her headshot appears next to her name.
GOOD NEWS: The immigrant protection bills S3521 and S3522 have passed the Senate Judiciary Committee!
We're calling on the Legislature to pass these bills and build a fair and welcoming community for everyone who calls New Jersey home.

π¨ Epstein survivors release this powerful PSA in advance of the Super Bowl demanding answers from the Justice Department. This is the Super Bowl ad every American should see. Spread it everywhere.
This temporary restraining order is just the first step in restoring funding for the Gateway Tunnel Project.
We will continue fighting to hold Trump accountable and get the project up and running again, and New Jerseyans back to work.

I am not going to repost the vile and racist image that Trump posted last night of President & First Lady Obama because it is beyond disgusting. Trump is a vile racist as is every Republican that continues to support him. I donβt want to hear mumbling from Mike Johnson or stoic silence from Thune.
Today, work on the Gateway Tunnel Project goes "shovels down" as Trump illegally withholds funds for this critical tunnel.
This is about thousands of jobs and over 200,000 commuters. There's no time to waste on this project.

Good front-paging.
With his ultimatum that Ukraine surrender to Russia, Trump finally wins a prize:
The Neville Chamberlain award for betraying peace, freedom, and justice.
This is definitely worth 20 minutes of your time to learn about our tax system.
This helped me understand the reasoning of the stay.
A federal judge says the Trump administration "overplayed its hand" by inserting partisan language into workers' out-of-office autoreplies. n.pr/47wPCJg
As far as I can tell (Propel data), no benefit money has been outlaid 11/1-11/4.
Only $90M in federal outlays to SNAP went out on 11/4. Lowest single day outlay in 3 years (as far as the tracker goes back).
