Pope Francis 'exposes ugly truths' about Christianity and Vance’s Trumpism defense: analysis: Although Vice President JD Vance is quite popular among far-right white evangelicals and Christian nationalists, he isn't an evangelical himself. The "Hillbilly Elegy" author and former U.S. senator is a…

Nothing can steal my JOY!!!!!

Brendan Carr, the FCC's new chairman, on Wednesday ordered an investigation into the sponsorship practices of NPR and PBS member stations.

If you ask a six year old this question with no prior instruction I would hope they would say yes

Because they are evil, we must stand up to them. But because they are also stupid, we needn’t be afraid to.

EXACTLY THIS 📢 “How do democracies die? They die slowly because the masses aren’t paying attention… until, when they notice, it’s too late.” “What is the first rule of not allowing authoritarianism? Do not obey in advance… do not acquiesce.” @tarasetmayer.bsky.social

Oh, and who will monitor those who have committed sex crimes in WhiteHouse? We should be worried about that.

If the #election was @economy- why do we care what bathroom someone uses?

"It has come to my attention that the chairman has since betrayed the process by disclosing our deliberations within moments after walking out of the committee, and he has implied that there was an agreement of the committee not to disclose the report."

I graduated high school in 1984. It was a glorious time. It’s also the year the movie “Red Dawn” came out. It’s a time in this country when we all knew the Soviet Union/Russia was our enemy. I still know that. I haven’t changed in that regard.

People blame Democrats for inflation & immigration yet Republicans held the House for the last 2 years & proposed nothing to fight corporate greed. Also, Republicans killed the border bill that Trump will reintroduce & take credit for. Voters need to pay attention & wise up.

Sex offenders in our White House appointing sex offenders as Attorney General should NEVER be normalized. Never stop calling this out.

But don’t worry. Oklahoma is buying thousands of Bibles for their public schools.

Democracy Now! is broadcasting this whole week from the #COP29 U.N. climate talks in Baku, Azerbaijan, where we are following all the negotiations, lobbying, protests and more. Follow along at democracynow.org/cop29

So I've been seeing a decent amount of posts from librarians in here. I read a crazy amount, but today, I finally went out and got a library card for the first time in decades, so thank you for the gentle nudge!

Fox in Print has a big scary story with photo & deceptive graph on a “migrant surge ahead of Trump” that the billboard running with it sez is not happening. Murdoch is a cancer.

245 million Americans were eligible to vote in the 2024 general election. Close to 90 million Americans didn’t vote.

For those who are feeling despair about this election, I go back and read this letter written by my ancestor, Col. Lewis Burwell during the Revolutionary War to then Governor Thomas Jefferson. One line always stands out to me. "You may depend that I will exert every nerve to save my country".

They're calling this the post-identity election. Hardly. My take. foreignpolicy.com/2024/11/15/u...

Like my Dem/Rep football decanters? We can come together on football… or liquor?

I guess Speaker Johnson has different views than most of the rest of us on what Jesus would do here
