In 1862, a Union soldier found cigars wrapped in a piece of paper in a field of clover. The paper was a copy of Confederate Gen. Lee's invasion orders. The Southern sloppiness helped the Union stop Lee at Antietam.
It's unknown who lost the orders in the field, or if he was related to Pete Hegseth.

Yep. Schumer and Fetterman can rot!
Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

All of my feed is posts from news sites, which is better than spam or ads but why don’t any of the individuals I follow show up in my feed? Feels like a #bluesky bust.

Palestinian American filmmaker Cherien Dabis’ ‘All That’s Left of You’ follows a Palestinian family’s struggle after Israel forced them from their home in 1948—from the Nakba to the First Intifada. A deeply human story that is “beautifully textured & deeply moving.”
All That’s Left of You review – deeply moving epic of Palestinian intergenerational trauma
Cherien Dabis’s drama, spanning nearly 75 years in one Palestinian family, is a heart-wrenching, if sometimes blunt, portrait of displacement

Right now, even the most intellectually-sound, emotionally-grounded, spiritually-steadied, mentally-stable of human beings are wondering, “What the hell is happening here, how much worse can it actually get, and how exactly am I going to survive?”

Still not a Reagan fan but I think he would have endorsed Harris over Trump too. What happened to W ??
Ronald Reagan to Jimmy Carter, Jan. 20, 1981:
"Mr. President, I want our fellow citizens to know how much you did to carry on this tradition...You have shown that we are a united people pledged to maintaining a political system which guarantees individual liberty to a greater degree than any other."

Rest in peace President Carter. Thank you for so much, including your final act of service to the nation you loved so well (see comment). God comfort and keep your family, and may your memory be a blessing.

Seems to me the United States has proven to be the ultimate slow horse. November 5 was our last chance to burn off our shame and we failed. We can but hope that Mick Jagger will sing us a song as our scene fades to black.

Leonard Cohen told us the truth.

“Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That's how it goes … “
