Extraordinary courage from Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim, 43-year-old father of two, who bravely risked his life to save his neighbors celebrating Hanukkah.

Praying for his full & speedy recovery.

And so deeply inspired by his example.

I am sure it's just sunspots and the Earth's orbit changing, and we should burn all the coal and oil we can, as quickly as we can. There's no way [all the research ever done] can be right.
The EPA has removed references about humans causing climate change from its website.

Remember those photos of women in Iran before the theocrats took over?

I suspect that's how we'll look back on photos from 2020, if we're allowed to see any.
I wrote about right-wing media's escalating attacks on women, from pushing for birth control restrictions to pressuring young women to leave the workforce. A new hire at The Heritage Foundation, Scott Yenor, exemplifies this trend, but it goes far beyond him. New at @mmfa.bsky.social

This is deliberately made hard to read, but basically they are declaring a triumph because some manufacturing moved to South Asia rather than being all in China itself. Not sure how that helps any Americans. The GOP's plans for mass deaths from disease and ICE camps will probably hurt China more.

It is dispiriting to realize that most Americans would be fine with losing civil rights and bringing back slavery, if the economy was doing well.

Trump’s unpopular because prices went up and in towns ICE has attacked.

All those murders and kidnappings? No worries until ICE is in *our* town.
