To all the weirdos defending Megyn Kelly: 15 year olds are underage, and that is statutory rape.

Pretty simple

Actually barely illegal, Megyn, but that is beside the point, you sicko.

Would you shrug if this were your 15 year old daughter raped by dirty old men?
@timmiller.bsky.social torches Megyn Kelly as she spins Epstein’s abuse of 15-year-old girls as “barely legal” types to protect Donald Trump.

I give Catholic bishops a hard time often for all the obvious reasons, but this is beautiful and loving, and I'm deeply grateful to hear it. This can change hearts and save lives.
Good statement from the US conference of Catholic Bishops

Sen. John Kennedy on Epstein: "I just don't think this issue is gonna go away until it's addressed and answered to the American people's satisfaction. And I may end up with a Sombrero on my head for saying that, but that's the way I see it."

Yet again, the administration chooses not to feed hungry Americans.

This is the very definition of callous. They could just follow the court order and do it.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

Cuz of EVs.

I think I saw there are 50 makes and models with 400 miles of range, most under $50K.

In US, there are 4 models available over 400 miles of range, all over $75K.
"Far from a peak, China's gasoline demand is estimated to have fallen 9% in October on the year to 12.5 million tons, with average daily use roughly flat with September..."

China's oil demand is entering structural decline.
EVs put an end to China's usual holiday surge in gasoline use
Tianyu Jiang took a 2,000-km (1,200-mile) road trip this month during China's national holiday week, driving in his electric vehicle from the southwestern Sichuan basin to Beijing for the first time.

On “JDVance’s bullshit politics.”
Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

It’s really remarkable how thin the bench of climate change deniers is and how deep the poverty of their arguments. They haven’t come up with anything new in decades and can only fall back on conspiracies to explain their lack of success.
Joe Rogan has one of the world's most popular podcasts. Unfortunately, like nearly all of the most popular online shows, his tends to spread climate misinformation. For @climateconnections.bsky.social I scrutinize his recent episode with octogenarian climate contrarians Lindzen & Happer 🧵 (1/11)

Whether you’re heading out for your first hunt or continuing a generations-old tradition, the deer hunting opener is a special time in Minnesota.

Great talking about the economic impact and Minnesota’s reputation as a deer hunting destination with hunters and conservationists.

CNN: Johnson and Thune have downplayed the elections results. Are they wrong?

MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I don't think they should downplay it. In Georgia we lost 2 very important Public Service Commission seats that were statewide races. I think that should be a big wakeup call.

How's this for energy abundance? Millions of Aussies will start receiving three hours of free power each day in 2026. This is what happens when you make rooftop solar less than a buck a watt!!

"Rooftop solar installations cost about $840 (U.S.) per kilowatt of capacity before rebates." 🤯

Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.
