Republicans will say he’s just joking. Media will say it’s just Trump. But if it was any other President, we’d taking him seriously, and we should here too.

Another example of unrealistic standards in comic books...

Seriously, though, I do hope you feel better soon.

Gorgeous patterns on the little cutie. And nice love-squint at you. One of the things I love to see my boy and girl do to me

Must-read on Trump’s lawless Chicago invasion: “The president instructed federal agents to use extralegal violence against immigrants & citizens, pitting armed soldiers from 1 state against citizens of another… rubicons can’t be uncrossed.” www.thebulwark.com/p/emergency-...

Not a scam (know someone who works for CF). Just economies of scale and the fact a massive DC can send power down a lot cheaper.

The first secret police organization in fascist Italy—the precursor to the German Gestapo—was the OVRA, the Organization for Vigilance and Repression of Anti-Fascism.

Those who fear-monger about "Antifa" are walking directly in Mussolini's footsteps.

Background:

Gonna be thinking about this lede for a minute.

(RNS) — Last month, the Rev. David Black stood in front of a Chicago-area U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility and spread his arms wide. Adorned in all black and wearing a clerical collar, the pastor looked up at a group of masked, heavily armed ICE agents on the roof and began to pray.

“I invited them to repentance,” Black, a minister in the Presbyterian Church (USA), said in an interview. “I basically offered an altar call. I invited them to come and receive that salvation, and be part of the kingdom that is coming.”

But when Black began to lower his arms a few seconds later, the agents responded to his spiritual plea by firing pepper balls, or chemical agents that cause eye irritation and respiratory distress, video footage shows. One struck Black in the head, exploding into a puff of white pepper smoke and forcing him to his knees. Fellow demonstrators rushed to his aid, and as the pastor rubbed his face in pain, the agents continued to fire.

“We could hear them laughing,” Black said.

Hahaha well, that's a novel way of getting into activities! If you like skateboarding, you might like rollerblading too. There is a great documentary which explains the history and the rise and fall of the sport. I used to rollerblade and think it deserves more love).

How did you get into racing? What is it you like about the sport/activity? I have always liked cars (not as much as some, by any means) but never got into racing. Any suggestions for how to appreciate it more?
