apple.news/Ao4cJ0uo3R0K... 4 day a week school calendar. Earn your associates when you graduate hs. 3 years bachelor degrees. And now a Bachelors degree in weeks. We continue to devalue education at every turn. We’re becoming a nation of credentialed idiots.
www.cbsnews.com/news/newborn... “At a February meeting of the Idaho chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics, doctors said they knew of eight deaths from vitamin K deficiency bleeding in the state over the preceding 13 months…”
When you live in a world with two adversaries - Russia and China- who want to rip apart the western world order- and replace it with their authoritarian nihilistic thuggery- the world becomes a core interest- whether through hard power or soft power.
The core US interest during the Cold War was standing up to Soviet aggression everywhere- Europe, Asia, Africa, Cuba, etc. The core US interest now is standing up to Russian aggression everywhere. Russia is a chaos agent who uses asymmetrical means to project power. This is Cold War 2.0.
At this point. I don’t understand why Zelensky is even going through the motions of meeting the dimwitted Witkoff and his lackey. What the US is offering is worthless. The US has lost all leverage over Ukraine. It’s time to stop the charade of these worthless negotiations.
License to Kill, however, did have two of the best Bond girls - Carey Lowell and Talisa Soto.
8 months later no criminal charges filed. Criminal justice Idaho style. Just despicable.
Is the press corps had a spine- which they clearly don’t- they would have gotten up and filed out of the briefing
The ending was painful to watch.
apple.news/AVwxgf795S9u... modern house design is awful. Same layout. All white walls. Laminate flooring throughout. White cabinets. Stainless steel appliances. No color. Bland builder greige. Small patch of lawn. Three boxwood plants. No trees. Horrible.
Hillbilly Eulogy.
These people are deranged.
Trump claimed he was going to deport the worst of the worst.
But he's not.
He's taking the best of the best.
He's abducting hardworking people, doctors even!
Many people are oblivious. They're busy working & taking care of their kids.
Please talk to friends & tell them about #ICELawlessness!
“Attacks on free speech”- that’s rich gone this Administration’s is more authoritarian than any prior administration.
54% of Crimea voted for Ukrainian statehood in 1991- the only legitimate national referendum. Stop being a clown.
Not claiming these as survey/overview of post war America- but these are solid choices for some critical history of post war America- 1) David Halberstam- The Fifties 2) Taylor Branch- America in the King Years Trilogy 3) Ron Brownstein- Rock Me on the Water- 1974 4) Bruce Schulman- The Seventies.
“The prosperity gospel is a heretical perversion of Christianity, but Christian nationalism is its logical outgrowth. Christian nationalism takes the ideas of prosperity gospel and applies them at scale.”

lol you’re okay then. My bad.
Yes. Pink Converse though- idk- kinda on the bubble there lol
When is the free world going to commit themselves to standing up to Russia?
I like early part of spring when everything in my yard is in bloom and the grass is a deep shade of green.
“Rubio …. has a certain amount of political gravitas left”- is being incredibly charitable to Little Marco. Why there is still belief that Rubio “knows better” and will act as some sort of backstop to curtail Trump’s warmongering is unfathomable.
An article loaded with anti-Ukraine bias. Pathetic.
This is not who we should be—but ICE is so desperate for stats they detain a woman who is legally applying for her green card, a scholarship college student who teaches Sunday School. Trump would have us believe he’s taking criminal aliens off the streets. It’s a lie www.nytimes.com/2026/04/05/u...
“Temperament” is being very charitable.
Due to concerns that ICE was staking out the graduation ceremony of a recent class of US marines graduating from Warrant Officer school, a number of family members had to stay away.
Think about that. Think about the people literally putting their lives on the line and how we treat them.
