Victory Day (VJ Day) 1945. Baby abandoned. Fast forward, his daughter is my wife and Bob's your uncle. Everything is true, except the Bob part (unless you live in Canada). Pre-order now. This is an extremely cool story! 100% detective work. 100% labor of love.

The 5 Olympic ring dance number with the black plague basement characters from "Ghosts" has me confused. I liked the "arts" number. But this "rings" number is tedious.

On Jan 1 1984, AT&T was forced to divest as a monopoly. They were estimated to be worth $75B. That same amount, today, would be worth less than the net worth of Jeff Bezos and HALF of what Elon Musk is worth. When did we become numb to allowing this?

According to a 2025 SSA report, 79 yr olds have a 6% chance of passing in the next year, and a life expectancy of 87 yrs. Just putting that out there for those that like to wager.

NEW: Trump’s approval among Catholics falls to a historic low.

A rising movement of Catholics, emboldened by Pope Leo, is turning against MAGA.

With over 20,000 members, we are the fastest-growing Catholic group in America.

To the MAGA purveyors of cruelty and lies — we will defeat you.
Under Pope Leo XIV, American Catholics Are Uniting to Defeat MAGA Authoritarianism
Trump’s support among U.S. Catholics has plummeted to an all-time low of 39%, a stark decline over the year. This is no accident. Under Leo XIV, we're working to defeat Trump-Vance authoritarianism.

Just a reminder that our Nazi President - who is threatening the sovereignty of multiple nations, laying siege to an American city with his army of brownshirts and openly raiding the treasury to enrich himself - is also a sadistic and unrepentant pedophile.
Okay, so impeach when?

They refer to Minnesota-St. Paul as a "theater" which is a military term for a geographical area of war -- the European Theater of Operations and the Pacific Theater in WW2. That's the Trump regime mindset of how it sees the nation, as theaters of war against people. Ethnic cleansing theaters.
Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state?

HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down

CNN: How did we get to a place where we had Bovino having Border Patrol agents stopping citizens in interior of the country, asking them ID, creating fear? Who made the decisions to allow this kind of operation to proceed?

HOMAN: The reason for the massive deployment is bc of the threats & violence

Disgusting, authoritarian, fascist, misogynistic response. "Woman! Just stop making me mad, and I won't have to beat you! You know I love you. But you gotta stop making me mad!"
Homan: "I begged for the last two months on TV for the rhetoric to stop. I said in March -- if the rhetoric doesn't stop, there is gonna be bloodshed. And there has been. I wish I wasn't right. I don't want to see anybody die."

Every accusation is an admission.
Trump continues to lie and incite violence against Rep. Ilhan Omar: "I think she's a fraud ... she probably had herself sprayed, knowing her."

Meanwhile, Michele Tafoya's like, "Sign me up for this Nazi shit! I'm all in! My time on the sideline taught me authoritarianism, racism, misogyny, and how to be completely tone deaf."
Breaking: Republican candidate for Minnesota Governor Chris Madel drops out of the race.

“I can’t look my daughters in the eye and say I’m running as a Republican, when they’re pulling over Hispanics and Asians because of the color of the skin... I did not sign up for that.”

When do local police agencies, or National Guard, start rounding up murderous and complicit ICE agents? We need our "serve and protect" members to start serving and protecting citizens.
ICE attempted to order local police from the scene of the Minneapolis shooting, but the police chief refused and instructed his officers to preserve the crime scene.
