“This is dip,” I told my great aunt Tate, my grandfather’s sister, pointing to the bowls of failed fudge. “To dip your cookies in. It was supposed to be fudge but it didn’t set up.”
“Raised on the stuff,” said Great Aunt Tate.

This is insane. Every single non-profit in this country is barred from political endorsements.
Holy shit, a real masks-off moment. Trump's IRS says churches can continue to claim tax benefits as a nonprofit even while explicitly endorsing candidates.

We need to respond to that by being truthful and exact in our speech. And truthfully, the detention facility in the Florida everglades which is being colloquially referred to as “Alligator Alcatraz” is a concentration camp.
