Okay y’all, listening to Ken Burns being interviewed on @thebulwark.com has helped pull me out of my pessimistic doldrums. At least a bit. Democracy is messy and we don’t know how this story ends so let’s press on! (It really is a fantastic interview).

If Dolly Parton dies, that’s the last fucking straw.

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.

There will literally be lectures in law schools about how unethical Pam Bondi is.

This is not going well for Pam Bondi

Ossoff has been a fantastic Senator for Georgia. He is practical minded and works hard for this state. If you are in Georgia please consider doing what you can to support his re-election.

Didn't Pinochet get voted down in a referendum, though?

Or Yahya Jammeh in Gambia for a more recent example?

Mussolini overthrown internally?

Truth.

The thing that makes me the sickest is that these folks don’t even have a shred of compassion. It’s one thing to enforce laws and rules. It’s another to do it gleefully and celebrate the suffering of someone born into poverty and desperation
