@cbsnews.com , since Barrie Weiss took over, your news is suspiciously warped by condescending to Trump's wishes. The last minute cancellation of a 60 Minutes episode is the latest example. I've tuned you out and will encourage others to do so. We need independent journalism.

@alexkelloffco.bsky.social I'm an unaffiliated CO District 3 voter, but dislike MAGA Republicans. A Democrat can only win this district if they generally adopt some Republican policies. They must reject immigration sanctuary laws, gov't RIF and the extreme transgender agenda, for 3 examples.

This does NOT show rapid evolution. It shows the complexity of gene networks coding for beak shape. They took millions of years to evolve. That network includes genes evolved to somehow "read the current environment" and redirect beak shape accordingly.

They came here illegally. After a proper hearing, a judge denied their request for asylum. The father's fears were not credible. They must be deported. In the far distant future, I hope we humans can live without national borders, but not anytime soon.
