The criminal investigation of Powell demonstrates Trump’s insatiable desire to control the levers of the economy.
It also shows how silly Trump’s allies in robes have been in assuming that Trump would stay within the limits they set for him.

Trump’s latest attack on the Federal Reserve is the Supreme Court's fault
The justices gave him a loaded weapon. Of course he's using it.

The troll rolled up at my house a few seconds after I got home from work myself.
“Hold up there, Carter,” he bellowed as he stepped out of his truck. “I’ve got a question for you.”

I was traveling to Newark when I heard the first reports of the unidentified aerial phenomenon. A long trip toward what? Work or consolation? I would have taken whatever was available. Starting over was starting over.

This is how Jesus the Christ came to be born; it rambles a bit and anachronisms abound, nevertheless it remains something like the true story. At least I believe it to be so. It is the story as I heard it told.

He woke before dawn and dressed in silence. There were no angels in his dreams these nights. Only screams. When he could sleep at all. Sleep came easier after several of Amun’s bowls. Miriam and the boy slept on. He stared at the boy and grunted.

I want to say more about the festivities and the celebration. I want to linger in the light and laughter but we cannot. I’m sorry. Our scripture reading for this morning sends us wham and whiplash into terror and screaming and slaughter.
