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

Bill Owens is a journalist, who has worked at “60 Minutes,” the finest and most venerable journalistic program in the United States, for 24 years, and for the last six as its executive producer.

He has been forced out of “60 Minutes” by the insatiable greed of Shari Redstone, who has demanded that Bill Owens bend the knee to Donald Trump.

Bill Owens did not bend the knee.

Bill Owens took a stand.

Thank you, Bill Owens.

Don't leave anything for later.

Later, the coffee gets cold.

Later, you lose interest.

Later, the day turns into night.

Later, people grow up.

Later, people grow old.

Later, life goes by.

Later, you regret not doing something... when you had the chance.

I want politics to be about a better everyday life.

Here's what that can look like:

We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾‍♀️.

Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

President Biden at the Pope’s funeral in Italy today. Awesome that he’s there! Biden is a good, decent man who cares about others deeply.

The Loneliness No One Talks About

No one warns you about the loneliness that comes with growing.

The silence when old friendships stop fitting, but new ones haven’t formed.

The ache of outgrowing places, conversations, even versions of yourself.

Growth is beautiful, but it can also be isolating.

Keep growing anyway. You’ll find your kindred spirits.

To everyone shouting “no one is above the law” referring to that Milwaukee judge: We have a criminal in the White House. A guy who’s proven to be utterly lawless. And you’re perfectly fine with that. So take your “no one is above the law” bullshit and shove it up your ass.

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.

Read, read, read.

Study, learn, and stimulate your brain.

I disagree with my conservative parents, but I don't hate them

Thank you for writing this. As someone who was canceled by his progeny several years ago when he was starting college, I can relate to this phenomenon. I should have known there would be a problem when he started coming home from high school saying that everything was "racist", but I was blind to the brainwashing that was taking place.

That said, it's a sad commentary on society that we glorify, raise up, publish a person for simply not hating her parents (anymore) and (finally) being civil, and that we even seem to need role models for same. Not to spiral down the nature vs nurture debate, but is the author a product of her schooling in this regard? Her upbringing? Either one would be oddly circular: her parents raised her well, yet she rebelled and went "counter-culture" on them; schooling would've been the place where she …

The attitude always is that the lefty is of course on the right side of history and deigns to tolerate the people he or she encounters and with whom she disagrees. Amazing. Smug.

Sorry your progeny are being so short sighted.
