For the love of God
DO NOT Give pets as Xmas gifts.
Too many of these “gifts” end up at the shelter .
A Dog/Cat is a gift we give ourselves and they come with many
sacrifices.
Time,money, and a certain amount of collateral damage in their puppyhood.

"This is my darkest worry: Either the American experiment was so fragile that Trump was able to wreck it, almost by accident. Or the liberal regime we think of as 'the American experiment' was never more than a collectively-held illusion." Hopefully not!

"When our institutions are under fierce and sustained assault, the institutions need more than the affection and respect of the institutionalists. When the wreckers attack, the institutions need actual defenders."
The Center Is Not Holding
The institutionalists are all but extinct. The moderates are fleeing. And Trumpism marches on.

Jeffries: "You got some people in the town who go to church and pray on Sunday, and then they come to Congress and prey on the American people. I'm not down with that kind of faith. That's not the faith that comes out of the Gospel."

I'm sorry, but if you don't want to research, don't want to read, don't want to organize information, and don't want to write, you don't actually want to be a historian. If you think a machine can do better work than you, just quit. 🗃️

The humble servant left this world doing what he loved most…blessing the faithful. Rest in the loving care of the Lord Jorge Bergoglio 🙏🏻😢✝️
Pope Francis died at 88, the Vatican announced Monday, ending a pontificate that sought to reshape the Roman Catholic Church into a more inclusive institution. Cardinals will now decide whether to continue his approach or restore more doctrinaire leadership.

The stock market is so bad that Fox News removed the stock ticker that they’ve been showing for 28 years for the first time because they didn’t want their viewers to see the truth of what was happening in real time.
