During COVID I watched and reviewed every film by Werner Herzog:

This is incredible news. Today, Virginia officials will unveil a statue of Barbara Johns at the Capitol to replace one of Confederate General Robert E. Lee that had stood for more than a century. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
Statue of Black teen who fought segregation replaces Robert E. Lee at U.S. Capitol
Barbara Rose Johns was only 16 when she led a walkout in 1951 to protest horrendous conditions at her segregated high school for Black students in rural Farmville, Virginia.

As people evaluate the credibility of DOJ’s disclosure of the Epstein files, it’s good to remember the bogus effort so far.

Sources close to the president's family say that Maduro will be forgiven and left in power if he, like Hernández before him, can produce 400 tons of cocaine.

Pete Hegseth should not have fired that second shot when he did. He should have waited for the rescue crews to arrive.

I can count on one hand the entertainers whose work has brought me as much pure joy as Andy Merrill. Back in Iowa I’d tape episodes of Space Ghost on our VCR and send them to Peter Hughes in California. Spreading the good news of Brak. Happy birthday Andy Merrill!
Happy Birthday to the incredible @amerrill2.bsky.social . Co-Creator of Space Ghost Coast to Coast, Cartoon Planet and The Brak Show; Voice of Brak, amongst others; Cartoon Network programing and on air superstar, and all in all, I'd like to wish a very Happy Birthday to this guy

every single thing hegseth says in public reveals a bottomless pit of insecurity
When you draw a platoon leader like Hegseth, it’s your worst nightmare. You just ride it out until he’s gone and gets replaced by someone who isn’t a complete jackass. Only a fool like Trump would put one of them in charge of the entire defense department.

Tldr, the Epstein stuff is never going away. Investigate Clinton? Sure, why not. Bring on literal and figurative Discovery.
