Philadelphia is the best city in the country.
Other cities are great! We love New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Seattle, Baltimore, San Francisco, New Orleans, Miami...
But Philadelphia, it's a special place! I can't claim to be from the city, but I thank my stars everyday that I grew up near it 🔔

Between pushing to rename the Gulf of Mexico as "the Gulf of America," the Panama Canal grab back and "buying Greenland," even Trump's imperialism reeks of Trump University-level scam energy.

Every now and then, pro-Palestine folks learn about a place called Jewish Autonomous Oblast". They then decide it is a better place for Jewish folks to live than Israel. A "safe place".
The history is more complicated, it is not exactly a safe place, and it rarely was.
