I'm a rabbi in Tampa Florida. I'm also the Official Rabbi™ of the Poscast and Too Much Joy. I drum and golf badly but enthusiastically. I pursue mindfulness and justice. I swear more than most people think a rabbi should.
This is what happens — this is what you WANT to happen — when you place an incompetent, alcoholic sycophant with zero relevant experience as the head of our military.

Our Secretary of Defense is a war criminal. He should be treated as such.
Hegseth needs to be in jail for the rest of his life, and that’s the moderate option.
Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.

The Dora the Explorer float is on the Macy’s Parade, and I’m guessing that Cheetolini is about to order an ICE raid to shut it down

Now we come to that time of year when I ask Jesus to help me prepare for his coming by granting me the grace not to judge the wreaths on my neighbours doors or the trees in their windows.

Then again I probably would have made suggestions to Mary on how to better arrange the straw in the manger.

Coming out of a 5-day silent meditation retreat to find that, no, the world has not healed itself.

In any sane, reasonable world, this would be the biggest news story in years, and would bring down much of this administration.

In THIS world, most people probably won’t even be aware of it.
NEW: We’ve uncovered the first known example of taxpayer money flowing from DHS to businesses controlled by Kristi Noem’s allies and friends.

It’s part of a money trail that’s been shrouded in secrecy—and involves $220 million, a mysterious Delaware LLC & a horse named Gill.

Every time I hear that someone has “rizz” my immediate reaction is to picture Rizzo the rat in his letterman jacket and backwards hat, and then if I think whoever we’re talking about is at least as cool as that I go “yeah”

According to Fox News, if you are a racist Young Republican you are still a "kid" when you are 34, but if you are an Epstein victim, you are an adult when you're 15.

When you write the whole piece around the idea of “MeToo” as an adequate description of what caused specific men to lose specific positions, and when you do this incredibly weird cutesy business to avoid *mentioning what happened*, you do a disservice to readers.

"This is good work, I am doing important journalism here," I think, as I soberly discuss the important differences between sexually assaulting fifteen year-olds and eight year-olds.

And now, to open a internet browsing window and read what I'm sure are literally dozens of pieces reporting on the sweeping democrat victories, the obvious anti-Trump mood it represents, and how Trump should -- nay, has a *responsibility* to! -- compromise with the left on matters great and small.

Adam Sol is a professor of literature, a poet, a musician, a "rebbitz-sir" (a term he may have invented (?) for the husband of a rabbi), and an old high school and youth group buddy of mine. He has thoughts. Many. Some of them get shared here...

Nothing better than an Intentional Walk blowing up in their face by smacking a home run right after!

I’m mildly rooting for the Jays, but if you don’t love an unknown journeyman pitching 4 scoreless innings and a Freddie Freeman 18th inning walk off, then you just don’t love baseball.

It’s not complicated
There are no circumstances where human beings should be without food. There are no qualifications that make someone undeserving of access to food. If you are a human being, you should get food. I don’t care about ability, job status, legal status, or anything else. If people are hungry, feed them.

Never mind every other single abominable or corrupt thing to this miserable moment, the extrajudicial and unevidenced execution of 34 human beings by the U.S. Navy on the orders of a U.S. President acting in peacetime is sufficient for his impeachment and conviction.

If we were a republic, I mean.

Our President is bombing boats with no judicial process, but it’s his unauthorized work on the White House which is *really* getting people’s attention.

Rabbi Simcha Bunum of Peshischa says that Adam, the first human, was actually named after the Hebrew word for “imagination” (dimyon). He said that what makes us different from the other animals is that we’re the only ones who can think beyond ourselves, and our current situation.
