I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period
Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

Hey MAGA Christians, school shootings have nothing to do with a lack of prayer in public schools.
I’ve studied the Bible extensively and served as a pastor for nearly three decades.
Trust me: there is no prayer that will suddenly make children bulletproof.

Serious question. Kristi Noem was pictured with a Rolex in El Salvador, and got 3k in cash stolen.
She has been on a govt salary for years.
Something aint right
Pope Francis lifted the world as he led the Church with his profound moral voice. As he returns to God, may his call to humility and concern for the least among us continue to resound.

So the Republican Party has historically blocked:
-Paid sick leave
-Paid family & medical leave
-Universal childcare
-Universal pre-K
-Expanded Child Tax Credit
-Programs to support reproductive health
And they're wondering why more people aren't having children?
I don't know if JD Vance killed the Pope, but I think we should deport him to El Salvador just in case.

I refuse to be the kind of person who loses their mind over a delayed train or lets a spilled coffee set the tone for the whole day.
I want to be the one who stays composed, who sees the good even when things don’t go as planned. The kind of person who breathes through the little chaos and still finds beauty in how the day unfolds.
I want to be soft. I want to be steady.
Good morning!

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics.
Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

The League of Women Voters has declared that the United States is in a constitutional crisis. If you know anything about LWV, you know this isn’t a group that makes dramatic proclamations. They’re nonpartisan, measured, and focused on protecting democracy through voter education and participation. For them to use language this strong—it should wake us all up.

There’s a term in psychology called habituation: the way we stop noticing things we see often. A painting on the wall. A familiar view. Even a person’s kindness.
The brain filters the predictable to save energy. But in doing so, it risks filtering out what makes life feel full.
Not everything that becomes familiar should be forgotten.
Sometimes, attention is an act of love.
"I wrote a letter tonight about the rising radicalism of the Republican Party. But then, sorting through the dark chaos of today’s news, I found myself thinking instead about the Battle of Mobile Bay, which happened on this date in 1864. "
A glimpse of how a historian's mind works. From taking the LFAA intended (discussing the increasing radicalism of today's Republiqans) to a decisive victory that enabled the Union to endure (even if it was basically thrown away by kowtowing to the southern De…
And now I know for whom Farragut Square in DC is named, and what the story behind it is. I have to say, though, I'm always wondering how much better off those of us in the North would be if Lincoln had let the South go.
I suspect it would be perpetual war.
I don't agree, but my level of certainty about this is not high. I just wish we had a reasonable supreme court, no electoral college, and an end to gerrymandering. I wish Gore had been in the White House instead of Bush.
It's funny how when you ask them why they think Pope Francis was "too woke" and request specific examples, they always wound up describing Christ's teachings without a hint of self-awareness.
Airbnb will now show all users the full price of a stay, which includes fees and taxes, from the get-go.

Terrific news! The tide begins its turn.
