In English we know it as “Carol of the Bells,” but the melody arises from a Ukrainian folk tradition of songs welcoming the new year and summoning the forces of nature to meet human labor and bring prosperity.
Do listen.

Another beautiful Shchedryk performance amidst ruins.
It was set in what used to be a DTEK thermal power plant — now destroyed by russia.
The contrast between russia’s destructive nature and the Ukrainian will to create beauty even in the darkest times is palpable.

NEW: In an historic pick, Pope Leo XIV will appoint Bishop Ron Hicks — a protégé of progressive Cardinal Blase Cupich — as the next Archbishop of New York.
He replaces the retiring Cardinal Dolan, who recently faced criticism for calling Charlie Kirk a “modern-day St. Paul.”

One of the most morally reprehensible people of our lifetime
kyrsten sinema seemingly had a long-term plan to cash out of her senate job by establishing a reputation as someone who was connected to both parties, so at minimum it is good to see her get to find out that her name is mud

Israel has killed 249 journalists in the last 2 years.
That's more than were killed in WWII & the Vietnam War put together.
A Vermonter, Dylan Collins, was wounded in one of these attacks, which killed another reporter. This war against journalists must be investigated & ended.

The Democratic Party needs to get younger, feistier, smarter at messaging and more in touch with the electorate, both at the state and federal levels.
Democratic voters need to get more discerning about who they choose to fight against the rising tide of oligarchic fascism.

I know Charlie Kirk valued debate and free speech because he blocked me for fact-checking his lies on Twitter and then put me on his organization's Professor Watchlist for writing a book he didn't like.
