The President doesn't want you standing up and speaking out against him, so he's coming after me to intimidate all of us.
But I won't back down — and neither should you.

And yeah, I could've brought up "New Testament Covenant was established with the Resurrection of Jesus" and cite the dream of Jesus as evidence, but it's officially Sagittarius season & I felt like tapping into my Chaotic December Sagittarian bag

So the older brother tried to pull the "pork is unclean" bit for not eating any of my mom's greens, saying he'll "Let us take that up with the most high"
Me- You're talking awfully big for someone in a poly cotton blend. Not supposed to wear blended fabrics either.

Let's all just skip the "Mary Did you Know?" discourse this year? YES, she knew, Gabriel told her. YES, the song was meant in a rhetorical/metaphorical manner. YES, that's also man-splaining (something Mark Lowry didn't know about when he wrote it) NONE OF THIS will make me delete it off my Playlist

Apple pie is bad. This is not really debatable. So is key lime pie, while we’re on the topic. Pecan pie is the 🐐 tho.

Such classic gaslighting it's an instructive moment. The question is not whether generic is better or worse, it's that a list with more expensive brand names is not the same as a list with cheaper generics. Perverting that truth into an attack on those calling it out is Manipulation 101.
Hassett: "On one of the Sunday shows, the anchor criticized the fact Walmart said the Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper by about $10. Then he said, 'Oh yeah, but they substituted generic stuff,' as if having a generic something is a crime for ordinary folks! It shows how out of touch these people are."

So, maybe they wouldn't land well in 2025, but given all the things going on (and maybe I'm not looking for the right places to find them), but why are there no more "Cause Songs"(We are the World, We're All in the Same Gang) for modern events? Not even a "Sun City" for g @ ž a?

Wow.
U.S. District Judge Cameron McGowan Currie ruled Lindsey Halligan's appointment unlawful and the prosecutions against New York Attorney General Letitia James and former FBI Director James Comey therefore invalid.
Both indictments are dismissed without prejudice.

The Secretary of Defense is threatening Democratic Senator Mark Kelly with court martial for his messaging reminding servicemembers that their oath is to the Constitution and they should not obey unlawful orders.
