The Daily Beans There Goes My Hero (feat. John Fugelsang)
Friday, November 7th, 2025
Today, Sandwich Guy was unanimously acquitted by the jury in DC; Judge Ellis issued a preliminary injunction against ICE and CBP in Chicago finding the government’s version of events isn’t credible and that Bovino lied; the Border Patrol agent in Chicago who shot Marimar Martinez in Chicago is caught bragging about it in text messages; Nancy Pelosi announces her retirement from Congress; an appeals court gave Texas the go-ahead to enforce an anti-drag law; the Epstein Files are worse for Trump than previously known; the Supreme Court uses the emergency docket to allow Trump’s anti-trans passport policy to remain in effect during the pendency of litigation; a federal judge finds the Trump administration defied his court order and requires Trump to pay November SNAP benefits in full by close of business today; and Allison delivers your Good News.

Good Trouble
If your Representative or Senator is a Democrat, call them to thank them for continuing to work during the shutdown.
If you have a Republican Representative, call to let them know that they ought to be working AND Speaker Johnson needs to swear in Rep-elect Adelita Grijalva.
If your Senators are Republicans, call them to let them know that you agree with Donald Trump; they have the power to open the government. Either negotiate with the Dems or nuke the filibuster. Remind them that this shutdown is their choice.
