NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

No, many of us saw it. The fight against the bill was because of all the insidious, anti-democratic details. I don’t think Johnson ever re-opens the House. At least not until Vought and the convict tell him they are done destroying.

From a Gavin Newsom email. Keep hammering, Governor.

I don’t like saying “false king,” suggesting some thing he’s the real one. No. Just HELL no.

There was a time I looked forward to seeing the SCOTUS docket. Not now. We can see the decisions before the cases are argued. 😥😥

Sally, it is SO disappointing to read your take. A “woman entrepreneur”? She takes advantage of selling her views regardless of truth. Ick.

I’m not giving to candidates in their 70s. Graham will get some of my $$$.

Anyone taking bets on IF, not when, Mikey calls the House back?

I have (had) some trump-voting colleagues with learning challenged kids. I warned them of exactly this!! The response? “Oh no. He’s not coming after special ed.” Of course they are.

The Education Department laid off nearly everyone at the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services.

So many things that are so very very wrong.

I would love to see ALL churches doing this across the country. There are ICE detention centers in more places than you realize.

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”
