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.
The Secretary is unfit to lead.

If we’re serious about more efficient government and better everyday life in America - which we all should be - that means actually improving government, not cutting health care for poor people and slashing support for veterans.

Remember when the economy was booming, stocks were soaring, we weren’t in a trade war with China, we didn’t have a day drunk for a Sec Def, a couch fucking Cabbage Patch doll for a VP, or an evil, incurious idiot for a president and we still funded cancer research?

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.

That's the standard. Like when it was OK for Fauci or Newsom to attend maskless parties during Covid knowing somehow that was fine, when anyone else was shunned, fired or imprisoned. They bank on a constant and well-engineered case of functioning cognitive dissonance.
It was not OK when Newsom attended maskless parties before a vaccine for covid was developed. He was lucky he did not get seriously ill and die. Before a covid vaccine was developed, among the most heavily infected areas of the US were Rockland County, NY and Orange County, NY. Both counties have a high percentage of Hasidic Jews.
