🔥 DANISH REPORTER: “Does this have any effect on your self-respect, when you sit next to Trump like that and say nothing?”

Wow - @SecGenNATO @markrutte gets asked about kissing Trump’s ass. When will @SpeakerJohnson or any Republicans get asked this one?

Trump managed to turn a World Cup that was honestly turning into a major US PR victory into a total national humiliation. Genius.

first it was Stoner everyone started reading, then it was the Count of Monte Cristo and now it's East of Eden.... I wonder what's next

@LauraMinquini Important point is that Monroe, Burr, Marshall, Hamilton, Madison were not "founding fathers" n 1776 (they weren't considered middle-aged either). Not then n Congress, or judges, or military officers. Young men, some n the army by '76, some writing political pamphlets. Activists

@sbliss89 It's shorter? Thomas Jefferson on his deathbed kept asking "Is it the 4th?"

@FrankTracy @DrPopCultureUSA @dcsandbrook in his history of post-war Britain talks of the ignored majority listening to the Sound of Music rather than Sgt Pepper. #WhiteHeat #NeverHadItSoGood #TheRestIsHistory

@dcsandbrook I hope you will eventually get to Catherine Fox's Acts and Omissions, which begins her Lindchester novels. A contemporary Barchester ❤️

@dcsandbrook @TheRestHistory Have you seen the 1996 6-part series Liberty!? Among the historians featured were John Keegan, Jeremy Black, N.A.M. Rodger, Colin Bonwick, and Piers Mackesy, plus Americans. Wonderful series.

NEW: Trump said is March that he would pay for the new black granite in the West Colonnade. But that wasn't true. The National Park Service was billed $1.3 million for the project, as spending at other parks collapses, per internal budget docs I obtained. https://t.co/s9ty15JyFL

[Peter Baker @peterbakernyt]

Trump ripped up the walkway between the West Wing and the mansion to replace it with polished African granite carved in Italy. "Paid for by me," he claimed. Except that's not true. Taxpayers paid $689,232, per documents obtained by @michaelscherer https://t.co/7l2bkD0MIH

Will this be part of Texas's Bible study?

Leviticus 19:33–34: “When a stranger sojourns with you in your land, you shall not do him wrong. You shall treat the stranger who sojourns with you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself.”

@AntSpeaks It is provincial to imagine the whole world must call the same game football. American football, Canadian football, Australian football, and Gaelic football are all different games from soccer. The British invented the game, and they called it soccer within living memory.

@ScottJenningsKY Why would anyone accept anything Trump says about anything?

[Stanford Brown🌻🇺🇦 @stanbrown32]

@breathoflife_US @Protestia How many people do you know who are divorced and remarried? Do you also crusade against people in those relationships, or people like this bishop who accept them in the church?

@FrankTracy One of the greatest, and Mary Astor is so lovely in it.

@breathoflife_US @Protestia The Hebrew represents cultural standards, not divine. Do you observe all the Mosaic laws?

News you can use from the opinion editors of the Italian right-wing daily Libero:

"TRUMP IS AN ASSHOLE"

@breathoflife_US @Protestia Your translation of I Corinthians 6:9 is faulty. The Greek words refer to exploitative behaviors as immoral.
