Religion note: Remember that pastor who was arrested protesting an ICE detention facility outside Chicago recently? The one who was photographed on the ground as officers arrested him?
That's Rev. Michael Woolf, and this is his church.

Yesterday the President fell asleep, yet again, during a televised fake Cabinet meeting staged so that each of his courtiers could heap praise on him, praise for which he couldn't stay conscious. He woke up just long enough to spew racism. Why is this not being treated as an emergency? >

She brought the house down as a stripper in Gypsy, going on to star in films with Al Pacino and Jack Nicholson. Now, at 96, she’s stealing the show in Eleanor the Great. What’s her secret? ‘Be a looker-ahead’

When folks gripe about DEI, remind them who benefited from shutting out dancers like Copeland. That pattern runs through our whole history.

It turns out, when you mix the 2016 video of Pete Hegseth talking about troops not following unlawful orders with the recent Democratic PSA on the same subject, their message flows together pretty seamlessly.

Disgusting.
Usually, re-dedication ceremonies are held in broad daylight, with pomp and circumstance and a heads up to the press to cover said event with smiling politicos and speechless honorees….not marked with a “hey! look what we did when no one was looking!” tweet after business hours.

I think it's time we start declaring the Trump Administration and their Reeks traitors.
They're traitors to the Constitution.
Their desire to create a white Christian nationalist state is against the founding fathers and the law.
They're the "foreign threat" to America, not immigrants.

I've repeatedly been asked why I don't get a PhD.
1 No benefit for me as as non-academic.
2 Cost, both in $ & time
3 I've heard about so many more negative experiences than positive ones
4 If I want to spend countless hours researching something & writing a book, I can just do that
5 Committees 🤮
