Trump is asking the people that thought they were going to be killed to sign off on a reward for the people they thought were going to kill them. Seems like a great idea.

Mitch McConnell could have organized and led his caucus to convict Trump after January 6. Instead he surrendered like a coward. And never forget Mitch McConnell helped Trump to pack a MAGA supermajority in Roberts Republican SCOTUS. He did this.

Parrots are beautiful wild creatures who should not be in cages.

It does work that way: Cassandra clings to Athena’s statue. This 4th-century BC work from Tanagra carries one of the darkest silences of Troy’s fall: a woman who saw the truth, was never believed, and found no protection even in a goddess’s sanctuary. Her prophecies were right. No one listened.
