@EKDagenfield @CohenSite Bingo! Also the city of Carmel has had archaic and bizarre beloved rules for the last 70 years. Once you leave its boundaries and enter Carmel Valley or Monterey next door there are always dozens of empty storefronts owned by giant corporate investors …

@XanManson @captgouda24 Yes, The codes were reduced from over 200 to 31 and are how the military gathers the faith data. Next step: the reduced code list will result in fewer “non-Christian” endorsing agencies being recognized, and therefore fewer “non-Christian” chaplains being commissioned.

@captgouda24 What’s really something is splitting apart white baptists - while all historically black faiths: AME, AME Zion, COGIC, & the National Baptist bodies collectively representing 15+ million members, all with significant numbers of members in the U.S. Military; are totally absent.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Charity admits no delay. Our responsibility before those in need makes every encounter with others a unique and unrepeatable moment of grace for love, not to be missed or postponed. The love of Christ impels us toward our brothers and sisters, and the charity and care with which we respond are the test of our faith. #ApostolicJourney #Spain

MAGA Republicans claim that electronic ballots are hackable, and thus rigged while simultaneously complaining that paper ballots are too slow to count, and thus rigged.

They just don't like elections.

Crises the media would expect a Democratic President to PERSONALLY solve (see e.g., Obama + Deepwater Horizon; Biden + baby formula) even if it wasn't their fault but Trump cuts monitoring of this invasive species and gets to swing his golf clubs all weekend w/o doing a thing

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Still no mention of D-Day from Trump

2,500 casualties on Omaha Beach today. Over 900 killed. General Omar Bradley stands where they died and reflects years later on the men lost under his command. See more on Substack: https://t.co/EEg00P06y6

@HoopStuart @DrewMcWeeny 90 plus years of lawsuits and precedents and IP title holders are still not required to use standard accounting practices for public corporations - most of those lawsuits are about recoupability, depreciation & profit-sharing and how the studios almost always keep all the money.

[Friend M. Wells @40th_Parallel_W]

@BasedMikeLee Bigotry: same reason the people you support also removed every historically black faith: AME, AME Zion, COGIC, & the National Baptist bodies which collectively represent 15+ million members and which all have significant numbers of members in the U.S. Military, all totally absent

An actual US senator has his face eaten by his own leopards-eating-people’s-faces party.

@michaelpfreeman But, they’ll argue it’s the basis for all common law - it’s perfect Scalia originalism: Rex non potest peccare. Blackstone codified this, treating it as a settled constitutional structural necessity: the king is the fount of justice, so no court exists that could stand above him.

[Michael Freeman @michaelpfreeman]

Is that now the prevailing legal argument in this country, that nothing whatsoever can stop Donald Trump from doing whatever he wants to do? Seems problematic.

[Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar]

I voted until 5 a.m. today to block Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund.
Your tax dollars should not be going to Jan. 6th rioters who went after officers.

And why give MORE money to ICE when they’re already bigger than the FBI? The extra 70B could instead fund yrs of health care!

[Matt Royer @royermattw]

This is why this app and our politics are so unbelievably cooked.

You have accounts posting AI videos claiming that the “fresh smell is amazing” getting 10’s of thousands of likes while people defend how they saw it and think it’s amazing in the replies when the reflecting pool is not finished.

Cult like, bot behavior.

[Gary Sinise @GarySinise]

Thank you to all who fought and sacrificed in freedoms defense all those years ago. Incredible footage here. Blessed that both my uncles survived and will never forget the over 400,000 who did not come home.

I am once again reposting E.B. White

Clearing up some actual misinformation:

The New World Screwworm does not pose a threat to raw or cooked meat, and consumers should not worry about purchasing meat throughout this crisis

The threat is to LIVE warm blooded animals, also including wildlife, pets and humans

Here is a link to information about information, symptoms, risk factors, how it spreads and prevention: https://t.co/UyPyogfSRN
