He called it a prayer and asked the congregation to pray with him. An adapted verse replacing God with a military team. "You will know my call sign is Sandy One, when I lay my vengeance upon thee."
God bless the teams who serve in harm's way. I don't begrudge them. But secdef is a moron.
I've been seeing them, so not universally broken.
It's so annoying to catch!
It's like 98% just performance. This is a fight and they are always on the offensive. This is not to say the people performing outrage can't evoke more genuine feeling in their audience. Also if there's an actual reasonable cause for outrage, they'll try to work it too, of course.
I read "against the World President, Donald J Trump."
U may think "against-the-world President" is more accurate but.
The narcissist in chief has the biggest guns, biggest economy, and prettiest hair, and should run the place and against him only has anyone sinned. In his mind.
it is, among other things, incredibly striking to see that roberts was so solicitous of the burden the clean power plan might put on fossil fuel executives, when, a decade later, he is indifferent to the way trump’s moves have thrown hundreds of thousands of lives into turmoil.
Screenshotted excerpt from linked article reading as follows: "In public, Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. has cultivated a reputation for care and caution. The papers reveal a different side of him. At a critical moment for the country and the court, the papers show, he acted as a bulldozer in pushing to stop Mr. Obama’s plan to address the global climate crisis. When colleagues warned the chief justice that he was proposing an unprecedented move, he was dismissive. “I recognize that the posture of this stay request is not typical,” he wrote. But he argued that the Obama plan, which aimed to regulate coal-fired plants, was “the most expensive regulation ever imposed on the power sector,” and too big, costly and consequential for the court not to act immediately."

New York Times got receipts on John Roberts being like, 'I know this isn't how anything works, but a Democratic president is about to implement a policy!!'

Twenty-nine people have died in ICE custody since October, the start of the federal government's fiscal year, already surpassing 2004's toll of 28, the previous record, according to government data. n.pr/4sLetjV
We've got a lot of open space where we can put solar. What would this solve for the US?
She apparently said she saved $11k from this tax change? I don't doubt she's working hard, but how much in tips is that?
I don't think two Republicans are likely to win the CA governor's primary and the push by some to get Democratic candidates out of the race is insane. Vote strategically yes, but let's talk about our great candidates and who we'd like instead of asking others to make it easy based on polls.
Galarian Articuno, Moltres, and Zapdos if you don't have them. They're rare daily incense spawns with a high flee rate. Won't flee if shiny, but still a pain to catch.
Republicans depend more on men's votes and Democrats on women's votes today. Simplest explanation.
NEW: Cardinal Pietro Parolin says that Pope Leo XIV cannot carry the weight of this war alone.
“There is a need for more voices of peace, more voices against the madness,” Parolin said, warning Leo risks becoming “a voice crying in the wilderness if it is not supported and helped concretely.”
These were such good devices. What other portable tech do you have that's lasted this long?
The crime is not giving him his cut.
They were going to all of their appointments. And now their teachers, their peers at Burton Elementary, and Durham neighborhood are left missing them tremendously. Genesis, Denis and their parents were abducted without warning at a routine Charlotte immigration check-in on Monday.
Trump's "great" America is a nation that will betray any ally, break any promise.
Legal immigrant? They'll try to revoke your status.
Citizen?They're trying to throw up a bunch of bureaucracy between you and your right to vote. Likely coming for Medicare and social security next.

New puzzle? Letter tiles are not my usual scene but it's good to be flexible.
You gotta impeach, man. His crimes and threats of greater crimes to come cannot be tolerated. Republican reps and senators need to be able to cast these votes themselves, not just make noise about others using their powers.
He could see Iranians advancing and somehow signal this info to rescuers, but it's unclear how close Iranian forces ever got is confusing. Can't have been that close if they had hours to struggle with their stuck planes?
Very glad they got everyone out.
Suddenly a shot rang out!
I may have forgotten that one of these was a real word.

Also how accessible are pure paper bubble systems, can they comply with HAVA? Thought that was why we all moved to machines after 2000.
(My California mail ballots are hand-filled paper and idk how everyone manages them either. You can vote in person on a machine as one alternative.)
This is not a lot of time to design and test a new system and teach everyone how it works, but trying to do it with no funding is cuckoo bananas.
Is this work supposed to be done statewide or county by county?
How many wars is he planning on starting?!
actual nytimes headline FEMA Official Says He Teleported to Waffle House. Experts Are Dubious.
you, a naive fool: i do believe there are some things the nytimes won’t both sides

It can only good happen.
Man he really had to wait for the prompter to tell him what God should bless, huh?
They're undoing generations of work. This can't all be easily undone and what can will cost money.
