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.

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.

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.
Genuinely nasty

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!

I agree with this.
The best stories, ideas, and culture right at your fingertips.
I want politics to be about a better everyday life.
Here's what that can look like:

Educate yourself.
When a question about a certain topic pops up, google it. Watch movies and documentaries. When something sparks your interest, read about it.
Read, read, read.
Study, learn, and stimulate your brain.
Don't just rely on the school system; educate your beautiful mind.
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.
Marketing isn’t all on your shoulders. More than 50% of all new free subscriptions and 25% of paid subscriptions come from within our network.
Pam Bondi said on Fox that the FBI’s arrest of a county judge is “sending a very strong message.” Yes, Pam, and that message is, this country is being ruled by fascist traitors.

As my late father wrote: “Live each day so that you will neither be afraid of tomorrow nor ashamed of yesterday.”
I’m not afraid of tomorrow because I know we are in this fight together.
Thrilled to be here at Substack!
For tonight:
1650 Free: 0/0 for Cal vs 2?/0 for Texas (updated after all but top-8, including two Longhorns have swum) 200 Back: 3/1 for Cal vs. 1/0 for Texas 100 Free: 1/0 for Cal vs. 2/1 for Texas 200 Breast: 1/3 for Cal vs. 1/1 for Texas 200 Fly: 2/1 for Cal vs 0/0 for Texas Platform Diving: 0/0 for Cal vs. 0/1 for Texas (13th or 4 points for Harness)
Total: 7/5 for Cal vs. 6/3 for Texas
It will likely come down to how the swimmers do in the finals tonight. For the optimists, Cal does have the …
I did this somewhat quickly, but I think this is a pretty good estimate if you score out the prelims/seed:
1650 free - Cal 0, Texas 34 200 back - Cal 54, Texas 17 100 free - Cal 20, Texas 36 200 breast - Cal 30, Texas 24 200 fly - Cal 33, Texas 0
This means Cal will gain ~27 points heading into diving with 7.5 points from yesterday. Cal and Texas have been relatively equal in changes points based on seeding from prelims to finals so somewhere in the 24-30 range feels pretty reasonable so I'm goi…
Hey, Ruey & Christopher? I feel compelled to say, as a lifelong swimmer, fan, and still part-time high-school coach (and Berkeley lifer), that your write-ups and analysis are excellent. Thank you.
