You were surveilled because you were involved in attempt to overturn an election that ultimately led to a mob attacking the U.S. Capitol. Sorry, not sorry.

I may also ram these folks, or use other protective gear unless they are identifiable as members of a police agency. I think it is normal.

Interesting discussion. Money matters (or better, services), though may be fore 'necessary not sufficient'. But then one also needs accommodation in their own cultural spaces. This does not even really happen in Nordic countries. Now, NO has a commission studying all this....

Yes but the monetary expense of children is only one part of it and it why you don't get super far with safety net expansion (which is a good thing regardless of its impacts on fertility!)

This is honestly the stupidest thing I've heard in a long time- banning the use of the words burger & sausage on plant based products.

Hyundai tried to win favor with the Trump administration, taking aggressive steps to strengthen the Korean automaker’s ties to the U.S. So far that looks like a painful miscalculation.

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.

Mah: Europe is not open. If anything, it is even more structurally racist and mafia ridden than the US. Also: our system deserves our efforts to be saved because it is manifestly superior.

Dolly Parton’s sister, Freida Parton, is asking for people to pray for her sister’s health.

Verified Facebook post by Freida Parton. The caption reads:

“Last night, I was up all night praying for my sister, Dolly. Many of you know she hasn’t been feeling her best lately. I truly believe in the power of prayer, and I have been lead to ask all of the world that loves her to be prayer warriors and pray with me. She’s strong, she’s loved, and with all the prayers being lifted for her, I know in my heart she’s going to be just fine. Godspeed, my sissy Dolly. We all love you! ❤️”

Below the caption is a photo of Dolly Parton standing outdoors in front of lush green ivy, hands clasped in prayer, wearing a shiny silver outfit with lace-trimmed sleeves, her signature blonde hair styled in soft curls, looking upward serenely.
