When she refused to answer questions, she should have been asked, "Are you taking the Fifth?"

Glad to hear it. If by "anti-Gospel" you mean contrary to the benign and humane parts of Jesus' teachings, I (and all secular humanists, many other religious, pagans and Satanists) are right with you. We don't need religion to be humane, and it doesn't always help, as the Christo-fascists show.

I wish you had asked her if her refusal to answer questions about Epstein was based on the Fifth Amendment.

When Pam Bondi refuses to answer a question about Epstein, I wish a Senator would ask her if she is doing so under the Fifth Amendment.

'Trump declared that he’d enact the Insurrection Act “if people were being killed and courts were holding us up... "'

The next step is obvious. ICE is going to kill people. He's given them every encouragement.

"Settled scholarship" There's your problem. You wield the "scholar" word like a bludgeon. My background is science, where nothing is settled, asking questions that may never be answered. Yours is religion, the ultimate fallacy of appeal to authority, giving answers that may never be questioned.

The original question was whether Christian Nationalists believe the Bible says Jews are to be sacrificed at the end of the world. Christian Nationalists believe a lot of bullsh¡t and they'll use any excuse to be antisemitic. Why care about the minutiae?

Instead of condescending to me, you should think about my questions. You remind me of the man who told me some time in the 1960s that I would never be wise if I didn't read and fully understand The Lord of the Rings.

We remember him not just because of what happened, but because we refuse to let hate win. Because love deserves safety. Because no one should be hurt for being who they are.

This isn’t history. It’s a reminder. Be loud. Be kind. Be the reason someone feels safe. #LGBTQ+

If many people are going to have to cancel their health insurance because they can't afford it, isn't the industry going to suffer? Aren't they cutting off their nose to spite their face? Can they survive if they are financed only by the well-off?

She's smart enough to wear a kiss-proof hat.

Isn't there some legal protection for whistleblowers?

Yes, they went to Salisbury because they were so excited by the height of the cathedral.
But who sent them?

The Russian government really must do something about the country's terrible window safety problem.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
