The floatato chip didn’t crumble under the weight of a Fat Bear Junior champ, and Chunk proved that round and resilient is the recipe for success.

Quick thoughts on the ELCA PB first ballot. 1. At least there are two POC in the Top 5. 2. All Top 5 are Synod staff. 3. If one calls the same people who are currently in charge and expect different results, that is on us.

OK, I have an idea. We all agree to go along with the GOP’s desire to display the 10 Commandments in public buildings. In return, they all agree to resign office immediately if they disobey any of the aforementioned commandments.

Pretty much the same amount Republicans promise to “save” in this budget is what the IRS could have collected from tax cheats and wealthy/sophisticated filers WITHOUT RAISING A SINGLE TAX.
But instead somebody somewhere will lose out on healthcare. Stupid and cruel.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name.
It is blatantly unconstitutional.

If the US government requires passports for you to practice your rights such as voting then passports should be provided for free to all and within a reasonable timeframe by said government.

Update: The Office of Government Ethics has "no comment" on its acting director, Jamieson Greer, also being Trump's U.S. Trade Rep -- meaning the guy in charge of investigating whether Trump engaged in insider trading with his tariffs is also the guy who advises Trump on tariffs.

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.
