Yes, who is more likely to regard the sacrifice of people as abhorrent than those who follow a religion centered on celebrating the sacrifice of a person?

Donald J. Trump, as West Virginia National Guard member Sarah Beckstrom drew her last breath. She had been placed in harm’s way only because of his disregard for the law and Constitution.

A reminder: if SCOTUS were not ruled by a band of MAGA operatives, Trump could never have gotten away with his crimes. They continue to work hard for him. Let’s see what they do with the TX gerrymandering case. It takes a village, people.

Joseph Stalin planned to expand Red Square by demolishing several historic buildings, including the iconic St. Basil's Cathedral. The primary goal was to create a vast, open space that glorified the authoritarian state and Stalin's personality cult. The architect who objected was put in a gulag.
Even the architect Trump hired to build his massive addition to the White House objects to the president's vision. The two have argued about the size of the 90,000-sq-foot project that would dwarf the mansion. @jonathanreports.bsky.social @ddiamond.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Trump wants a bigger White House ballroom. His architect disagrees.
The president and James McCrery had argued in recent weeks over the project’s size, with Trump pushing him to expand the ballroom.

To be clear, the FBI paid nearly $1M in overtime over a FIVE DAY PERIOD last March. And yes, part of it was to find and redact Trump's name. I spoke to sources who reviewed the files for the FBI and DOJ and wrote about it here: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-epstei...

No human ear would repair itself without scarring and a significant part of the ear destroyed. The blood was not blood and the splatter pattern is ridiculous. I can go on but this is tiresome. The shooting was staged. A man is dead. We know jackshit about the shooter or the investigation.

Donald is so stupid he thinks a "permanent pause" is a logical, real thing. To pause is, by definition, not permanent. To cause something to cease, on the other hand, is permanent. No wonder he had to pay someone else to take the SAT for him.

Homeland Security doesn’t grasp the fact that the first Thanksgiving was about making “room at the table” for European “invaders.”

A country where the president can ask election officials to 'find' another 11,780 votes and not be prosecuted, while citizens are brutalized for exercising their constitutional rights is not a nation of laws.
THIS IS WHAT FASCISM LOOKS LIKE.

The Pilgrims Were Doomsday Cultists
The settlers who arrived in Plymouth were not escaping religious persecution. They left on the Mayflower to establish a theocracy in the Americas.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
In this time of growing Christian Nationalism, it is important to remember the *real* history of Thanksgiving. The Puritans didn't just come to the New World to flee persecution, they came here so they could be the ones doing the persecution.
