45-year-old US army veteran & former Fox News host is a member of an obscure, deeply Calvinist wing of evangelical Christianity – John Calvin broke from the Catholic church during the 16th-century Protestant Reformation – that rejects the pope’s authority
Perhaps your country shouldn't have abducted and raped women on an industrial scale, in which case nobody would need to build statues to remember your country's victims. And if this is truly no longer Japan or the Japanese of today, it doesn't reflect on you.

an adult and child shoebill in the grass looking at the camera, they naturally have a mean look so it looks menacing
yo, u in the wrong neighborhood
A crazy looking bird with wild head feathers.
Me trying to figure out most @ replies.
A comfortable rocking chair,
In the corner of a book-lined study;
A bowl of the best pipe-weed,
And another spare pipe in its rack.
What more could a man want
To ease his soul?

A tweet quoting JD Vance saying he finds it ironic to be accused of foreign influence after campaigning for Viktor Orbán, with a Fox News screenshot of Vance speaking at an event in Hungary. Below it is a smaller embedded tweet noting Vance stumping for Orbán at a political rally.
You're a foreign official campaigning in a foreign election for one preferred side, JD. Think about it. Take all the time you need.

After Spain called out Israel's War Crimes they have removed Spain's representatives from overseeing the '''Ceasefire''' in Gaza.
So they can commit more War Crimes in peace.
*So many 's because we all know there is no Ceasefire, not for Israel anyway.
This flew under the radar: Trump's new acting AG Todd Blanche shut down major DOJ investigations into crypto companies, dealers, and exchanges as Pam Bondi's second-in-command — all while holding at least $159,000 in crypto assets himself.
The fox is guarding the hen house.
We can't have 80 yr old presidents,
Who can destroy the world
then just die and not be punished for or deal with the mess
Do Americans know that their Vice President was in Hungary campaigning for a Putin ally to be reelected, instead of in DC during a war in which Putin is helping Iran target Americans?

A stunning photograph captures Edinburgh Castle perched atop a rocky crag during golden hour, bathed in warm sunset light that highlights its stone towers and battlements. A vibrant rainbow arcs gracefully across the blue sky directly above the castle, stretching from left to right. In the foreground, narrow cobblestone streets in the Old Town feature old brick and stone buildings with lit street lamps, arched doorways, stairs leading up a hill, bare winter trees, some greenery, and a distant figure in light clothing walking nearby.
Edinburgh Castle and Rainbow :)

NEW: The DNC just passed a resolution condemning dark money donations - including those to AIPAC. A member of the DNC proposed a resolution condemning dark money through AIPAC, but the DNC panel rejected that and expanded it to include all dark money donations.
A tweet reporting that Melania Trump delivered a statement at the White House denying ties to Jeffrey Epstein and knowledge of his crimes, with an image of her standing at a podium with microphones, U.S. flags behind her, reading from prepared remarks.
It’s almost like she's afraid and trying to get out ahead of a story. But in so doing, she put Epstein back into the top of the news.
His flock is bleating mad and no longer following their mad shepherd.
Just a reminder—as we’re all reacting to the First Lady’s statement on the Epstein files yesterday.
This guy is still serving in the administration.
This is how Bruce Springsteen opened his concert in Los Angeles last night. 🔥🔥

a senior golden retriever sits in the grass in front of a gray stone wall and faces the camera head-on. he has at least four tennis balls in his mouth – two stacked vertically under his nose, and one pressing up his cheek flaps on either side. the balls are faded shades of orange and green, now weathered and well-loved, like the sugary white of the dog’s face.
This is Finley. He is the Guinness Book of World Records champ for most tennis balls held by a dog in their mouth with 6 at once. Earned the title six years ago and has remained undefeated. He may be a senior, but he definitely knows ball. 14/10 #SeniorPupSaturday (IG: finnyboymolloy)

I love this photo of astronaut Christina Koch looking back at Earth from Artemis II.
She's the first woman to see the full sphere of our beautiful planet.
Welcome home to the crew, and thank you for reminding us of all we can discover together.
