Cardinal Cushing, 1965: “Catholics do not need the support of civil law to be faithful to their own religious convictions and they do not seek to impose by law their moral views on others of society.”

Neither should other denominations and faiths.

Trump pressed oil executives to give $1 billion for his campaign, people in industry say
"This is a scandal" and "an indictment of the system" — but probably legal, one legal watchdog told POLITICO.

I haven’t substantiated it yet, but I saw a report (CNN via Reuters) that the VP of Venezuela was in Moscow when this took place.

Here’s the reaction from around the world…

there are endless headlines about "grok apologizes" or "grok says it will be fixed" after it generated CSAM using pictures of minors and zero headlines about "grok being shut down" or "musk and xAI in big legal trouble" and I think something fundamental has broken here

You know that scene in Good Will Hunting where the guys are trying to figure out something to do for fun, and one says, “You wanna go over to Harvard and beat up smart kids?”

Those guys are all in a cabinet-level position in the Trump Administration.

During the Great Depression, the camps set up by homeless WWI veterans were nicknamed ‘Hoovervilles’.

We should name the ICE camps for the president whose policies have created them:

Does this seem like it explains some things?

The drug Leqembi is used to treat adults with early Alzheimer’s disease, specifically those with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Leqembi doesn't cure Alzheimer's disease, but it may help slow declines in memory and thinking.

From the moment I heard about it on Jan. 6, 2020, I’ve thought that those devices were planted to create a diversion.

Cops would have responded to the RNC and DNC crime scenes, leaving fewer to protect the House of Reps. Less resistance for those coup perps would have made that day even worse.

These are not examples of drug policy.

- Blow up boats alleged to have drugs on them originating from Venezuela.

- Pardon a Honduran politician found guilty by trial of smuggling 400 tons of cocaine into the U.S.

This is simply eliminating your partner’s competition.

On The End of The Shutdown.

Over the past few months, I’ve been reposting a quote that I’ve held on to from one who fought against Apartheid. It basically says, ‘we will starve ourselves to death if in doing so it also deprives our tormentors of their future too’.

What I see in that picture is DJT being confronted with the randomness and suddenness of one’s own mortality.

to think that death’s honesty
