I still can’t get over the NYT unwillingness to say without qualifiers that routine news gathering is protected by the first amendment.

It’s not widely considered protected, it’s universally considered protected.

Anyone who says otherwise is simply anti-1A and that’s not the same thing!

So now Pete Hegseth has fired the Secretary of the Navy and the Chief of Staff of the Army, both in the middle of a war, both with no public or known explanation? Seems fine.

Something like this will have to happen in this country once Trumpism is defeated. In the absence of accountability, the world will rightly assume that it will happen again.

May Victor Orbán simply be the first in a string of countries engaging in overdue housecleaning by kicking their authoritarian leaders to the curb.

Pope Leo XIV on Trump’s warning to Iran of “civilization” destruction — 

“This is truly not acceptable. Here there are certainly questions of international law, but even more than this a question of morality for the good of people.” 

He adds the war is “continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything… is only provoking more hatred throughout the world.”

“attacks on civilian infrastructure are against international law, but it is also against sign of the hatred and division that we are capable of.”

check out this ginormous shitstack of dumb: some fucking idiot invited a war criminal onto American soil — and then, instead of arresting the war criminal, the fucking idiot ordered soldiers from the United States military to roll a red carpet up to the war criminal’s plane.

then the fucking idiot clapped like a trained seal while the war criminal kept him waiting on the tarmac.

and then the fucking idiot invited the war criminal to ride with him in the presidential limo, and off they went on their despot snugglebunny playdate, where nothing got accomplished.

after which, the fucking idiot posed for yet another photo where he looked weak and defeated, while the war criminal grinned like a hyena who’d just enjoyed a great meal.

and finally, when the whole disgraceful debacle was over, the fucking idiot praised himself for hitting it out of the park.

“he said on a scale of 1 to 10, ‘I give today a 10.’ so that’s the president grading what he thought of the meeting.”

how fucking idiotic is that?

America is on the wrong path.

Hopefully we can find our way.

The way towards diversity, equality, empathy, inclusion, generosity, fairness, kindness, progress, love, intelligence, and democracy.

We must never give up hope.

'Georiga': Embarassing typo in Mike Collins Senate ad via Mike Collins

Georgia, you’ve already got Marjorie Taylor Greene. Elect Mike Collins too and we’re gonna need a border around the whole damn state. The guy can’t even spell “Georgia” in his own ad, writes “Georiga.”

This is the story of my life...when I told my Mother I was going to run for Governor of NH in 1991 she told me I could not because I would embarrass the family. It has been a struggle to be perceived as an equal and it turns out equality is a threat
