Mark Kelly: "The message he sent a couple days ago was he declared that loyalty to the Constitution is now punishable by death. Those are serious words coming from the president. He's trying to intimidate us. But I'm not going to be intimidated."

George Harrison, known as "the quiet Beatle," embraced Hinduism and the Hare Krishna movement, significantly influencing his life and music.
George Harrison releases “My Sweet Lord” 55 years ago today.

“I’ve met so many listeners across the years who said it made them feel peaceful for 3 minutes,” he said. “It made spirituality feel like something you could sing along to while driving a car or washing dishes. That’s all I ever wanted.”

The Trump Effect ?
Obviously I Underestimate U.S. Influence On The Rest Of The World ?

"The annual United Nations climate conference has ended with an agreement that urges action to address global warming, but falls short of endorsing a phase-out of fossil fuels."

Multilateralism refers to an alliance of multiple countries pursuing a common goal in international relations. It is based on principles of inclusivity, equality, and cooperation, aiming to foster a more peaceful and sustainable world.
LULA: “.. [Trump] is trying to preach the end of multilateralism, trying to strengthen unilateralism. I think multilateralism will win.”

Monotheism —the belief that there is only one deity—is a foundational tenet of the Abrahamic religions, which alike conceive God as the all-powerful and all-knowing deity [1] from whom Abraham received a divine revelation, according to their respective narratives.

Abraham Accords, series of agreements to normalize relations between Israel and several states with Muslim-majority populations.

The name of the accords was given in reference to the biblical Abraham, whom Jews and Arabs consider as their common ancestor, and as an expression of brotherhood.

“It was one of the worst things ever,” she told police

In accordance with one of the core tenets of their church, the matter was resolved. It was forgiven. It should now be forgotten. If she spoke of it again, she would be guilty of having an unforgiving heart and the sins would become hers.
One Minnesota pastor's idea of forgiveness was forcing kids to hug their abuser, then keep quiet.

By ignoring mandated reporting laws, he allowed the abuser to find "hundreds" of victims.

It's a horrifying story.

solar power and wind power have become cheaper than coal and natural gas for utility-scale electricity generation in most areas, in large part because the fuel is free.

The total global power generation from renewable sources saved US$467 billion in avoided fuel costs in 2024 alone.

The announcement comes after Greene publicly skirmished with Donald Trump over the release of the Epstein files. Trump has responded by calling her a “traitor,” a “lunatic,” and “wacky,” saying he’ll refuse to take her phone calls, and that he’ll consider supporting a primary challenger against her.
November 22, 2025 at 2:10 PM
Greene called the fallout "one of the most destructive things" for people who fought to hold a "corrupt government accountable."

And Honestly Believed Trump Was The Answer ?
Who Could Be That Delusional ?

The Epstein files are just the latest fracture in Trump's MAGA coalition
