Is Harvard even an Ivy League university at this point?

There is no one remaining teaching Western Civilization. They have all either died or moved to other universities. None were replaced in the past decade.

James Hankins, a specialist in Renaissance thought, was one of the last holdouts.

“We have not hired with tenure a historian in a Western field—ancient, medieval, early modern, or modern—in a decade,” Hankins says about his Harvard department, which in that time “lost eight senior historians in Western fields—all major figures—through death, retirement or departure for other universities. I will be the ninth, and I am not expecting to be replaced.”

The White House is "considering an executive order that would seek to stop states from enacting & enforcing AI safety measures."

This is the wrong move--and it's unpopular.

New @FamStudies poll: "Americans oppose AI preemption by a margin of 3 to 1."

This is the same Dan Rather that had to step down in disgrace and publicly apologize for running a bogus report to try to affect a Presidential election?

The internal CBS report determined he disregarded "fundamental journalistic principles"

Are those preferable "credentials"?

this was ATROCIOUS….this could be Abigail's "I don't think parents should be going into schools and telling them what to teach…" moment that cost the Ds the race in 2021

She looks like a cold, heartless sociopath indeed

I don’t know how you could watch this video and not conclude that Abigail Spanberger is a sociopath

@MDLatinMass @40Days4LifePitt Will Catholic health "care" pick up the slack and provide the basic care PP does for people w/o $$ or insurance?

The senseless violence continues to amplify in our country, as witnessed now in Dallas – and, it would seem, politically motivated violence. The policy answers are not obvious, even if necessary. But also not enough. This is, at its core, a spiritual crisis. Much prayer is needed, indeed, essential. It is not irrelevant fluff, nor an excuse to simply acknowledge the tragedy and move on. Without help from above, there is no way out. To quote Erika Kirk: “Choose prayer, choose courage, choose beauty, choose adventure, choose family. Choose a life of faith. Most importantly, choose Christ.”

Imagine this: a prominent member of the U.S. Senate has a very strong record on defending the human dignity of life in the womb but also advocates for funding for Border Patrol agents to shoot people trying to enter the country illegally. Would anyone think it reasonable to honor such a senator for the senator’s pro-life record on abortion? No one who advocates for the direct, intentional killing of innocent human life should be honored. Period.

Today in 1945, George Orwell published a devastating critique of Communism.

Animal Farm reveals why every communist revolution follows the same tragic pattern: liberation to corruption to oppression.

Here are 10 truths from Animal Farm Orwell warned us never to forget 🧵👇🏼

Bill Maher: "You spent your whole life talking about how government tries to do too much, which it does, and spends too much. And here you have Trump... and then the other side, you have the guy running in New York, Mamdani, who's a straight-up communist."

George Will: "I want him to win. I think every 20 years or so, we need a conspicuous, confined experiment with socialism so we can crack it up again."

At Angelus, Pope Leo XIV reads the names of the three Christians killed by the “Israeli attack on the Church of the Holy Family in Gaza”, denouncing the targeting of civilians and places of worships, saying “we need to immediately stop these barbaric acts of war”

Dilemma for MAGA: Either there really is a grand Epstein conspiracy or there isn’t. If there is, then the administration is covering it up and can’t be trusted; if there isn’t, then the administration’s hype about it all this time was just hot air and it can’t be trusted. Ergo...

Republican Senators praying over a bill which kicks kids and old people off their health care in order to fund a massive kickback to the wealthy.

Man, I don't know what to say, but if you think this is Christianity, you are fucking lost.
