In a new video, Jo Frost, aka Supernanny, warns that some modern parents are hindering their kids’ independence by choosing short-term convenience over teaching basic life skills.

The Instagram post featuring the video is filled with comments from teachers agreeing with her that it’s a growing concern.

So let me get this straight.

Jake Tapper is focused on attacking my Mom.

Jared and Ivanka are building a private island paradise on Albanian protected land.

Don Jr married the daughter of Epstein’s banker, and a startup his fund backs just got a record $620M Pentagon loan.

Eric is taking an Israeli drone company public for $1.5B in the middle of a war with Iran that nobody wanted.

And I know: “But what about your paintings, Hunter?”

Please.

In the Senate contest between Ken Paxton and James Talarico, both Republicans and Democrats should prefer a servant leader over a self-serving crook, writes the Editorial Board. https://t.co/7NpX4QdEu0

[Democratic Wins Media @DemocraticWins]

BREAKING: In a stunning coup against Ken Paxton, the Houston Chronicle, one of the largest papers in Texas, just endorsed James Talarico. Let's go!

[Team Talarico @TeamTalaricoHQ]

.@JamesTalarico: Ken Paxton has a criminal record. I have a legislative record.

For over 4 terms in the Texas House of Representatives, I have brought Democrats and Republicans together to pass more than 60 bipartisan bills to cut property taxes, to raise teacher pay, to lower the cost of housing, prescription drugs, and childcare across Texas — and I’m gonna put that record up against Ken Paxton’s criminal record any day of the week, twice on Sunday.

I’ve called out the extremes in both parties. I’ve called out Ken Paxton for his blatant illegal corruption, but I also called out President Biden when he failed to secure our southern border.

I’m not interested in going to Washington DC to serve one political party. I’m going to Washington DC to serve the people of Texas.

That’s the exact opposite of what Ken Paxton does — he serves himself and his billionaire megadonors at the expense of the people of the state.

[Democrats @TheDemocrats]

Fired up. Ready to go.

It’s time to take back Texas.

[James Talarico @jamestalarico]

I want to thank Senator John Cornyn for his years representing our state. 

We don’t agree on everything, but we both still believe in public service.

To Senator Cornyn’s supporters: you have a place in our campaign.

[Sara McGee for Texas HD 132 @SaraForTexLege]

John Cornyn sold his soul to MAGA.

Ken Paxton never had a soul to begin with.

It’s Talarico or bust here in Texas.

[Democratic Wins Media @DemocraticWins]

BREAKING: In a stunning admission on Fox News, Texas Republican Senator John Cornyn just admitted that Democrats and James Talarico will successfully be able to hammer Texas' likely Republican Senate nominee Ken Paxton for his transgressions. Woah.

The funeral of Sadako Sasaki in October 1955...

On 6 August 1945, the United States dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan. Sadako Sasaki was two-years-old and living in the city. She had no apparent injuries and grew into a strong and healthy girl.

In 1954, when she was in sixth grade, she suddenly developed signs of illness. One day during a school race that she helped her team win, she felt extremely tired and dizzy. It grew worse until she fell and could not get up. In February 1955 she was diagnosed with leukemia and admitted to the Hiroshima Red Cross Hospital. She was eleven-years-old.

At the time, leukemia was called the A-bomb disease. Almost everyone who contracted it died. Sadako was terrified. She wanted to go back to school. A roommate at the hospital told her about the Japanese belief that anyone who folds 1,000 paper cranes would be granted a wish. Sadako began folding, hoping to recover. The cranes hung above her bed on strings.

There is disagreement about how many she completed before she died. Some accounts record 1,300 cranes. Others say she managed 644 before she became too weak to continue, and her classmates folded the rest. What is not disputed is that she folded until she could not. Sadako Sasaki died on 25 October 1955, after an eight-month struggle. She was twelve-years-old.

Her classmates decided to form a unity club in her honour, which grew as students from 3,100 schools across Japan and nine foreign countries raised money for a monument. On 5 May 1958, the Children's Peace Monument was unveiled in Hiroshima Peace Park, close to where the bomb had fallen.

Children from across the world continue to send folded paper cranes to be placed at the statue's base. One of Sadako's own cranes was donated to the Japanese American National Museum in 2016 by her family. The inscription on the monument reads: This is our cry. This is our prayer. Peace in the world.

I am looking forward to voting for @jamestalarico in November. As a lifelong Republican it is a simple choice. Character matters not party. Ken Paxton and John Cornyn do not deserve the privilege to represent the Great State of Texas in the United States Senate.

If you’re wondering why so many people are so concerned about the current Ebola outbreak…

“It was just over a year ago that Elon Musk gleefully declared that they were throwing USAID into the wood chipper. And you may recall that Elon Musk also sheepishly said at his first Cabinet meeting that he mistakenly canceled Ebola prevention…”

Pedro Páramo y El llano en llamas bastaron para volver inmortal su voz.
