It's a tall order for a writer to actually write something, isn't it?
In so many words, I'm a leftist, a Saganite, and I guess a writer.

While the next to follow will be their own man with their own agenda, one thing we can say is, based on that 110 of the 138 members of were appointed by Francis, the next pope will likely share priorities with the last.

The goal is to terrorize federal workers into quitting. That’s it. Constant changes. Canceling work from home then closing offices. Laying off probationary employees. It’s designed to break the government. Then privatize it for profit. It’s not efficiency. It’s collapse. Only peasants will suffer.

Many forget that before “The Birth of a Nation”, KKK membership was dwindling. But the movie depicted them positively and was even praised by President Wilson. Membership exploded. Endorsing and praising white supremacists and nazi sympathizers by the President today can lead us down the same road.

Sure sure, but who will be the Pershing to Bonus Army equivalent this time around?
Vets need to occupy Washington - set up a shanty town on the green areas around Capitol Hill, the White House and the Mall. Force Trump to call out his thugs to force them out.
Civil disobedience is required.

Trump idolizes and wants to teturn to the guilded age, huh?
And to think my Con Law professor said that Substantive Economic Due Process is a dead doctrine. Guess we'll see veneration of liberty of the contract as a fundamental right again!

It looks like cussing proves to be a fix for ridding your search results pf the AI overview.
You may want to mix up the cuss in certain searches. I can see "f*cking great tits" not working as an ornithologist intends.

Excellent reporting. I was NOT familiar with RFK Jr.’s race “science” stuff, which sounds like straight-up Nazi-style eugenics: “Now we know that, you know, we should not be giving Black people the same vaccine schedule that’s given to Whites, because their immune system is better than ours”
NEW: @laurenweberhp.bsky.social + I analyzed over 400 of RFK Jr.'s appearances since 2020 and found that he has disparaged vaccines in at least 114 appearances, falsely linked vax to autism in 36, and argued that White + Black people should have separate vaccination schedules

RFK Jr. disparaged vaccines dozens of times in recent years and misled on race
A Post examination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s statements finds the candidate for the nation’s top health post has repeatedly disparaged vaccines, linking them to autism.
